Oh, Miss UK, there is an issue with my W810 that only became apparent recently as I've started to use my W810 as my music player. Every now and then, there'll be a loud popping sound and there'll be an error message saying Playback failed. That is a concern to me as I was just starting to enjoy using my W810 as my music player. The sound quality is pretty good.

i was going earlier: "until it starts conking out". unfortunately, sony ericsons are never "stable and bug free".
that's one of the reasons why i won't get an SE - i imply can't trust them to last as long as 18 months like i can with a moto or a samsung.

Well, to be fair, my W810 has been a solid performer so far. I've been very pleased with it and would gladly give the newer phones a miss just to continue using it.

owned a K610i for 2 years. initially it had some minor hiccups. but after about 2 firmware updates it worked perfectly.
now i'm using a K800i. no bugs so far.
doesn't matter whether you own an SE, nokia, samsung, or any other brand, they all have their own faults/bugs. some are just more troublesome(i.e. K850) than others.

I used to use my ex P910i as a MP3 player the sound was very good,
never had any probs with it what-so-ever
Deluded try re-installing the firmware again I pressume you can also do this on
as ive done this on my N95-2 cos I also had a few hiccups with fw on that for abit too lol
W980i should ideally drop price fast as it ideally isn't worth £269.99 well I don't think so anyway, the more reasonable price for it is £169.99 if that

Hmm... I don't think a firmware update would solve that hissing and popping noise as well as the "Playback failed" error message as I have only recently updated to the latest firmware version. The problem was there in the previous firmware as well, but it did not really bother me as I didn't used to use my W810 as my MP3 player. In any case, the other functions are working fine, so I'll just use it as it is. I'm considering the K630 though, as the W902's not out yet and I'll probably give it a good half a year or so for the price and firmware to settle down first anyway.

I've had the K810i since it came out, and never had a problem with it. I know two people who got the Samsung U600 on contract, and both phones died before the contract was even over.
That said of course, I do know someone who got the W580i on contract for 18 months, and it died in about 6!! Some handsets are just better than others I guess.
's build quality is going down, but not on all it's models.

I think SE phones are poor when they are first released, both build quality and software. Both of these improve over the phone's life.
