Ok, so I've sold both my BlackBerrys, and one of the two K750i's I bought, and the same day I got rid of all three, I managed to spill chocolate milk all over my last remaining phone, the other K750i


Now, I've realised what it is I really use my phone for: calls and texts.

However, in regards to the other features, I have a few VERY specific requests, which I may as well list for the benefit of this exercise lol:

- 2MP AUTOFOCUS camera or higher
- LED flash, most important
- Either a Xenon flash as well, or the ability to plug one on (ala my MXE-60)
- An active camera slide/button, in other words, a very quick way of activating the camera. A camera button on the side that you have to push and hold irritates me, I want to get to my camera pronto!
- The ability to use the LED flash as a torch, or have it stay on when the camera is active (ie not only while focusing/taking the photo)

Thing is, since going back to my K750i, I've realised just HOW MUCH I used the LED flash, and I don't even go into the menu that often, I just pull open the lens cover, wait 3 seconds and push * and its on, instant light in the dark so to speak.


I'm sure theres some other specifics but I can't remember them right now


Normally, I would always know a short list of what to narrow this down to, but I'm really stuck.

Theres the C702 and K770i, but they don't work with my MXE-60 (I've started taking lots of night club pics and I don't want to carry my digital camera about in there).

I don't know what to get :/


Any suggestions, anyone?

None of SE's recent phones will work with the xenon flash add-on. It's ahem.... obsolete.
The only SE phones I can think of that would satisfy your requests would be either the K850 or the C905.

But do they both have LED light that will come on and stay on when you use the camera (without pressing the camera button to focus etc)?

Or at least the torch function? cause the C902 didn't :/

The c902 can have the LED turned on for a prolonged period of time when you're in video mode. So does the C905 (it has a seperate LED flash, in addition to a xenon one), because the LEDs are under the lens cover. The K850, on the other hand, has such an option in the Organizer menu. But I would advise you to stay away from the K850.

Yeah the K850i would be last on my list every time lol.

Might have to take a closer look at the C905 in that case, might be the nearest thing. I really still don't get why SE took the torch function out if the LED is still there :/

The W902 would be a nice alternative as well. No xenon but everything else is there.

True, but what about the active camera slide?

Lol it's ok, I know I can be pretty demanding with the features

I'll have a look at the C905 tomorrow then. I'm almost tempted to say "sod it" and get an LG Cookie or Viewty or something, really tempted to try one out (never had an LG before, or a touch screen, first time for everything).

I know they don't really have the features I want, but if I can't find what I do want/can get then I'll just go and get something different
