Bookmark topic
Ok interested in buying both from this forum and need some advice quickly. Im worried about the size of the K800 and also the firmware problems of the K800 as all the threads on here seem to be about how bad it is.
I love the size of the KG KG800 but I fear that after owning so many SE's that it will feel featureless and a lack of memory will hamper me.
I want to Se K800 for the camera but also heard that it is not as good as the K750's 2MP camera and also about its humpback (camera sticking out)
If you had the choice between them which one would you choose?

...you're kidding, right? The LG KG800 is NOTHING compared to the SE K800i. Both phones are on totally different leagues, if you can afford a K800i then you'll obviously pick the K800i over the LG.
The firmware issues regarding the K800i are overrated, they just sound that much worst in the forum but in truth they'r all minor things. I'm using a K800i and so far none of the bugs really bother me at all. I'v tried the KG800 for a 2weeks previously, and its kinda crappy. The tech in it is outdated by a bit more than a year, the only really new thing is the touchpad, which isnt that nice because you cant set the level of sensitivity.
Wherever you heard that the camera on the K800i isnt as good as the one on K750, dont listen to them. It is among the top, if not the top cellphone camera out there.
Although I must say the size of K800i and the humpback is a matter of preference. You either love it or hate it. I dont mind the humoback at all, it can still lie on its back just fine. As for the size, does anyone really need a tiny phone?!?! Its fine for me as long as it fits in my pocket, because i never keep my cellphone in the same pocket as anything else (who would be stupid enuf to risk scratches?)
So yeah, imho its the K800i for me

The so called bugs are minor in my view. I am yet to experience a bad bug on mine. The camera is a lot better than on my w800i as well. It is a bigish phone but it has never bothered me. I think the K800i is a great phone, i have not used the lg so cant comment on it really.

I have held a E900 which is similar and have held the K800 a few days before release in 'phones 4' u I think. I thought it was qutie heavy at the time.
I really after the camera feature mostley, not fussed about if it can play songs or whatever, just been put off by the firmware stuff on here and also people moaning about its size.
I have heard that you cant put new themes or something on the LG KG800 and well 128 mb of memory isnt all that good.
I dont know just the size and firmware worries me on the SE and the lack of memory and the lack of features on the LG. I should be getting both for around 170ish so not too bad price wise.

I see no problems with my camera

I took that.
My mom owns the KG800 and I poke fun at her, it serves her needs (sms, occasional phone call)
KG800's bluetooth is slow, has poor camera (in respect to k800). Its speaker is really loud though, it deafens mine.
Like somone else said, try both out. If you've owned SE phones in the past though the KG800 feels like a step back to 1998
