I'd second the comments with regard allaboutsymbian.com - this site is really the start and end of everything you will ever need &/or need to know.

I'm one of them who keep on using W800i... and W810i also (cause need EDGE)... nice UI with good quality photoshoting function. After W900i I can't find other new model which could have big advancement and stable UI.

Hi Mr_lou,
Its always good to WAIT until a phone that fits ALL of your criteria comes out OR go for other brands (N82?) Otherwise you will regret. Your criteria is not that demanding, but SE seems to not have a phone that suit your needs. Use your $ wisely, just wait.
I have only one SE phone-k810i red(good phone) and will never buy another SE again becoz their newer phones are always lacking of something.

You are not alone
I have a W800 too and man, its the best phone ive ever had. Ive been looking for a phone to replace it for 5 months now (my w800 shutdowns at random, takes pictures but saves them at random... ) and finally ill get a G900... but i dont think ill be as happy as i was when i got my w800
I just love SE but they are losing their touch... midend phones and bad cameras... 2 years and a half and W800 and K750 still being the Cybershot flagship (in 2megas cameras)...
I think someday Nokia will get better with battery lifes, user interface/design and sound (N82 camera is a WOW) and ill have no reason to stay with SE.
Im a K750I owner, I too am still waiting for SE to build a true successor to the K750I & W800 range, with every new ( so called ) Cyber Shot model launched it just brings disappointment.
Lad at work has the K850I, looks a nice phone with some good features when its working correctly & it even takes a decent picture sometimes which is a bit of a disapointment for a 5meg camera phone, but he is on his 4th replacement handset now.
One of the replacements he had lasted less then 24 hours before giving up the will to live.
I very much doubt my next phone after the K750I die's will be a SE

Hello,
I am in the same boat.
I have a Sony Ericsson w810i buy I do not want to buy any other barnd because I don't like them.
I like how this phone works, what I use is the calling, texting, camera and mp3 player.
I was going to buy the w890i but the buttons don't light up.
Hence, what can I buy?
The phones are really expensive but I can do with around £200.
The G900 looks good, where can I buy it in the UK?
Thanks.

W890 then? Looks like a nice walkman phone, but SE still doesn't put auto-focus in their walkman phones. Bummer.
Have you actually seen how thin the W890 is?
They (SONY) couldn't put an auto-focus lens in it if they wanted to – because at this moment in time it is physically impossible.
But of course you didn't bother to do some research before making your opinion.
It's a great little phone – and the picture quality is good – but if I really want to take (quality) photos I use a camera – not a phone.

Oh please - first of all, this wasn't specifically about about the W890. Secondly, take a look at the C902. Thirdly, take a look at all those knife thin Samsungs with AF cams (the U800 is just as thin as the W890, but actually has a 3.2MPx AF cam, for example.
Really, I wonder *who* should be doing research before opening his big mouth here. Physically not possible

Well... after having watched several YouTube videoes, heard opinions and read reviews, I have ordered the Nokia N82 now.
What kind of replacements can I use for stuff like MyPhoneExplorer, WotanClient etc?
Any other Nokia Symbian beginner links will be appreciated.
Thanks
Very good choice. Im sure you will be happy with it.

Add me to the list too.
My T610 was perfect, and still works.
S700 - several replacements, and the last one which I have boots only to a white screen.
K750 - several replacements, and the last one which I have has a non-functioning keyboard and will not boot at all.
K850 - 3rd handset died yet again and I'm back to using my emergency Samsung. I totally give up now, it's not worth the effort sending them back just to have a refurbished replacement that lasts a couple of weeks. I also find it boring having to go everywhere with my emergency Samsung, just in case the SE dies again.
Why on earth would I go back to a brand that consistently produces unstable and unreliable rubbish? The only reason I have persisted is because I like the UI, but what use is the UI when the phone is in the bin?

That will be the U800 that you can't buy and can't find any specific official specifications for as it's not been released yet? Closest thing available is SAMSUNGS flagship U900 which does has AF but measures 12.9 mm deep – the SONY W890i is 10mm deep. The C902 is 11mm deep and does have AF – but does not take good photos IMO. I did my research. LOL.
