Phone Features
The K850i has a 2.2-inch TFT screen with a 240 x 320-pixel resolution and support for 256K colors. It features a blue backlit five-way navigation pad built into the numeric keypad, and the gunmetal gray body is accented by a blue stripe running down the side. The phone has a 40 MB memory (which can be expanded using optional Memory Stick Micro media), and it can store up to 1000 contact entries. The phone will also display the 30 most recent dialed/received/missed calls.
An automatic lens cover keeps the 5-megapixel lens on the back of the phone protected, and it includes a xenon flash for a burst of high-intensity light at just the right moment. An image stabilizer compensates for those small movements, reducing the chance that your photo comes out blurred. The BestPic function gives you nine chances to capture the precise moment you want. As well as your shot, the phones take four images as you press the button, and another four afterwards. Pick the one you want, trash the rest. Select the Photo Fix function to improve pictures that you think can be better. In a one-click operation, brightness, light and contrast are adjusted to give you the best possible picture. Other photographic features include a 16x digital zoom, red-eye reduction, picture blogging capabilities, and video capture (up to QVGA at 30 fps).
The digital audio player is compatible with a wide variety of formats, including MP3, AAC/AAC+, and WMA. Additionally, you can play MPEG4 and 3GPP videos. With the TrackID service, you can identify any song that you can hear by just recording a snippet of sound using the microphone. After sending the file for recognition, you'll have the name, artist and album sent to your phone. It also includes a built-in FM radio with RDS, which displays the name of the currently playing song (when tuned to compatible radio stations).
 The K850i has a powerful 5-megapixel camera with auto focus for no-hassle sharpness, and xenon flash for poor light conditions. |
If you're looking for a mobile productivity partner, the K850i has you covered. Support is built in for sending and receiving pictures, text, graphics, and sound via MMS messages. When used in combination with the phone's built-in still and video camera, MMS opens up a whole new world of messaging possibilities. T9 text entry, a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit-- a plus for mobile email and text messaging users.
The phone also ships with a built-in email client with support for POP3 and IMAP4 protocols, while the included Access NetFront Web Browser allows you to surf full HTML web sites. The K850i also supports RSS feeds, allowing you to use your phone to view up-to-the-minute news and other content from selected Web sites and blogs. Just subscribe to the feed and let it come to you.

Classy paperweight,
By animatedBlader (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony Ericsson K850i Cyber-shot Unlocked Cell Phone with 5 MP Camera, U.S./International 3G, Media Player, M2 Memory Slot--U.S. Version with Warranty (Velvet Blue) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
This is the worst phone I have ever owned. I got this to replace my W810i. I have had many Sony Ericsson phones, and I like the way they work and the way they look. This one, when it is working, has a nice interface. It improves upon the previous phones in this area. The camera is a good one, and the voice quality is good. The problem is that the phone dies randomly. One day, I picked it up and it was dead. A quick internet search reveals that the phone's software is fundamentally flawed. Search "k850 brod" and you will see the hundreds of people stricken with this problem. The only recourse offered by se support was to send it back to them for 10 days, and when it comes back, the same problem could happen again.

This review is from: Sony Ericsson K850i Cyber-shot Unlocked Cell Phone with 5 MP Camera, U.S./International 3G, Media Player, M2 Memory Slot--U.S. Version with Warranty (Velvet Blue) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
The phone is completely in the specs according to the seller. Takes excellent 5MP pictures comparable to a regular 5MP camera. The only drawback is that it only accepts certain formatted pictures from other phones. Everything else on the phone is amazing I would definitely recommend it and recommend getting a case to protect it as I've read there have been problems with the K850i in the past although I have not experienced any problems what so ever.
