hi, i just bought my SE k700i yesterday and i noticed that when i'm using the camera, either video or stills, there seems to be a red line horizontally in the centre of the screen. its not there in the photos when i take a shot.. when i am outdoors and take photo's, its not there.
and i noticed that the photos come out very pixelated, is this normal? ive never had a camera phone before so i'm not sure what i should be expecting....
so, is there something wrong with my camera phone and should i take it back?? they will exchange it won't they? i don't want to wait for them to repair it, if they can...

what i'm really concerned with is the red line going from left to right in the middle of the screen when i'm accessing the camera.. do others have that line as well or is it just mine? when i hold it up to well lit areas like outdoors, the red line isn't that visible.. but all other times its there, even if the light is turned on... :S

ok so what do i do when i replace it?
do i just ask for a new one and tell them the camera isn't functioning as it should..
will they replce it on the spot or send it off to SE to see if they can fix it?
i am in constant use of the phone and can't be without a phone so i don't wanna have to wait till it gets fixed...

Yes, I have the same firmware.
I bought my phone from amazon for £160 GBP
I have the pixelated thing but not the red line?
Also how do you enter zoom?

you can only zoom in if you reduce the size of the photo being taken...
so is the firmware to blame for the pixelated resolution on the screen?? i plan on getting a bluetooth dongle this afternoon and will see the quality of the pictures on the computer.....
so i'm the only one with the red line running across my screen. its not that big, its a thin line and not visible in really well lit areas.... its bugging me though, i mean i paid so much for the phone and don't expect anything on it to be faulty...
