I've been using a k790 for a couple of years, bought second hand in not the best shape but it's worked perfectly, until a few weeks ago...I got the "An application is already running" error when trying to use the camera. I love this phone very much, but the camera was the main this I used it for so I must get a replacement now.

I tried a k850, brand new, but the lens shutter wouldn't open when turning on the camera. Come to find out this is a common problem with this phone, as well as the lens cover collecting dust and other things.

So, I started looking at the c905, but found a ton of messages about the earpiece going out, slider getting loose, directional pad breaking, screen screwing up (flipping upside down/mirror image?) and a bunch of other things. Should I be worried? How much of a problem are these things, really? I don't want to buy another phone that's a dud but I can't live without the CyberShot camera on these phones.

What about the C902? I don't need the 8mp, 5 is more than enough, but is the quality/reliability of the c902 better? I wasn't able to find messages about problems as easily as with the c905.

Or the C702? 3.2mp (like the k790) is fine for me, and again, I had less luck finding messages about problems with it.

Has anyone had recent experience with these phones who could give some advice about them? Does anybody still use any of them?

lol yeah Have you had any problems with the earpiece, keypad, etc on the c905? It seems like a lot of people have which worries me. Also, do the soft keys hold up well?

C702 has awfull keypad with no feedback, why not C901 instead of C902 if you can't live without the CyberShot

I have no experience of the SE C-series.
My only dedicated camera-phone is the aged K850i. Wich have problem to hold it own to the J20i Hazel.

The K850 having some awesome camera functions like the row of buttons for camera control (the buttons lights-up in camera-mode).

Have put the K850 on a camera tripod, but the K850i have no tripod mount
Taken with the J20i Hazel, with the HTC Desire HD in the background playing music from Spotify.

C901 is your answer. Xenon flash with top notch sensors. Excellent build quality, almost non-existent physical problems and slick looking too. It's the super affordable compact digicam you'll be around anywhere you go. I can't say the exact same for the other Cybershots you mentioned. Some might mention saturation and stuff but that's subjective and can easily be corrected with the preset scenes it has if you're not into modding. I can confidently say C901 is your choice

c901 camera is way worse then c905.........the only thing c901 can is to shoot daylight pictures.....thats it.

.......just look at the lowlight quality (colours and everything) and you see how much better image sensor c905 has. (and if you cant see that...you need glasses....strong glasses)
