Help!
I have a nicy shiny new GSM sim free w880i which I am pretty happy with. My mate has just got a brand new never used w950i on upgrade and he wants to swap for my w880i!
The w950i is Orange branded which puts me off a huge amount but the actual functions of the phone seems unaffected and I am on an Orange contrct anyway. Listening to the Walkman on the w950i it sounds much richer and fuller than the w880i and of course there is the advantage of the 4GB of memory (and the sexy slip case)!
I really am at aloss as to what to do. I love the smallness of the w880i and also it's cracking build quality but it does appear to be so small as to be a tad problematic at times. I'm worried that the w950i may be just a bit too big for day to day use though.
Anybody got any experience with using these phones for any period of time and able to pint me in the right direction with this.

w880 ain't that much expensive as w950 is ( I guess ) ... Im not sure whether you should do it or not ... bcuz both have one cool thing , w950 is kinda big and has a type of keyboard and a big screen , while w880 has a EXTREMLY COOL keypad and is damn slim ...

If you need Symbian device then you should get W950i, otherwise I would buy W880i.

W950 to me is an unparalleled music phone. W880 imo is just plain crap and i find even the W810 better than it. So W950 all the way.

I have both w950 and w880 dont get me wrong, the later ones is only for testing purposes. Imo these phones are incomparable, one has the symbian and it's classified smartphone minus camera. Whereas the later is a conventional mobile phones which focuses on its slimmnest.
The question is, what do u need and what r your priorities? Is it a symbian smartphone? Or a camera?
In my case, i use my p990i for my smartphones needs, better keyboard and bigger screen then on my w950, so i may take into consideraion about swapping my conventional w950 with a smaller form factor of w880

imo w880 is a downgade compared to a 2years old fone, k750 for example...
an af should be a MUST at a barnd, like se, where sony is making digicams and se entered the cybershot path in mobile area aswell...
