Sony Ericsson K850i Review
Phone rating:
In a nutshell: The eagerly awaited Sony Ericsson K850i should
have been the best camera phone ever, with a 5 megapixel camera, xenon
flash, autofocus & automatic lens cover. But problems with the keypad,
camera and firmware mean that we can't in all honesty recommend it.
Choose the Sony Ericsson C902 instead.
Review: October 2007. Last updated July 2009.
Sony Ericsson's Cyber-Shot range of phones have been a massive
hit. The K800i quickly gained
a reputation as the best camera phone on the market; the K810i
changed the styling but not much else; the K850i is the one that moves
the technology forward to the next stage, with its 5 megapixel camera
and high-speed 3G (HSDPA).
First, the looks. Looks like Sony Ericsson were determined to restyle
the phone. It's definitely less bricklike in its looks, and it's slimmed
down a lot since the K800i days, which is a welcome change. It has a
funky blue gizmo on the front and side, which you may or may not like
(tip - buy the "Velvet Blue" model pictured and not the hideous
"Luminous Green" option.) Now a word about the keypad design.
We're really happy to see that Sony Ericsson have finally dumped the
horrible joystick that marred both the K800i and K810i but whose idea
was it to position the navigation pad in the middle of the keypad so
that it overlaps the buttons? And why the small buttons when everyone
knows that bigger is better? Grr! And why have Sony Ericsson introduced
touch-sensitive keys that everyone hates? We have to say it: we hate
the keypad!
OK, so let's talk about the camera. This is tricky. On paper, the K850i
is clearly way ahead of the competition. It has high quality Cyber-Shot
optics. It has a whopping 5 megapixel resolution. It has a xenon flash
(superior to the LED flashes on other camera phones). It has autofocus
(to keep your subject sharp) and an automatic lens cover that fixes
the problem that the K800i had with the lens cover opening by itself.
The camera also has a BestPic feature which can automatically
take nine photos in a second, so that you can then choose which one
to keep. There's also a picture stabiliser, which helps to reduce camera
shake. A new switch on the side of the phone lets you switch easily
between camera modes, much like in a real digital camera. Used carefully,
the K850i can take pictures that improve on the K800i
and are even better than the Nokia N95.
Why then is the camera the thing that most of our user reviews have
complained about most? Read the reviews below for yourself: there are
a lot of disappointed Sony Ericsson fans who have upgraded to the K850i
only to find that they end up with badly exposed or totally black pictures.
The problem, we suspect, lies with the flash. The design of the flash
makes it very easy to place your fingers in the wrong place and completely
mess up the flash, resulting in a dark picture. To avoid this you need
to hold the edge of the phone (not the best way to hold a camera steady).
But we suspect that there's more than this behind the problem, and that
the flash itself may have fundamental problems. Whether these can be
fixed by firmware releases, we don't know, but for us, a product whose
unique selling point is potentially flawed is a fundamentally flawed
product. For this reason, we'd recommend that you stick with the K800i
or K810i or try the Nokia
N95.
Anyway, moving on to the phone's other features, the display is a very
high quality TFT ultra-high resolution screen and is very large at 2.4
inches. The media player is fully featured, despite not being a Walkman
phone. There's also an FM radio equipped with RDS. MP3 and AC ringtones
are supported.
The K850i is also the first of the Cyber-Shots to support accelerated
3G (HSDPA), which enables you to access the web and download files at
broadband speeds. Nice to see that feature available to Sony Ericsson
users at last. As this is a 3G phone, video calling is enabled too,
and the video quality is pretty good, using a front-facing second camera.
Connectivity is excellent with full support for Bluetooth and USB,
so it's possible to listen to music on a wireless
headset and making it very easy to transfer music files between
phone and PC. Battery life is pretty good, with a quite high powered
battery to power the big screen and 3G. The built-in memory is just
40 Mbytes, but this is expandable to 4 Gbytes with a Memory
Stick Micro, and there's also support for the microSD
format cards too.
So, in conclusion, the K850i is a 5 star phone that fails to live up
to expectation. The flawed keypad design and problems that people are
experiencing with the camera mean that we cannot recommend the K850i.
Choose the Sony Ericsson C902 instead.

I've had the K850i for 2 years now and after 12 months I should have
thrown it in the bin. The buttons have fell off one by one leaving just
5 still in place, so your fingernails need to be kept long and sharp
at one corner in order to depress the digits! The Camera is excellent
(hence the 1 star), but it's just a shame that you can't access the
brilliant pictures on the phone because the touchpad doesn't recognise
your touch! So it's impossible to get INTO the phone because you can't
get passed selecting Normal Mode. When it does finally decide to allow
you access, it's hit or miss whether it allows you to text. If you manage
to get a message inputted, you can't send it as it doesn't recognise
the Send touchkey. You have to switch on and off or release and reinsert
the battery to start all over again. It's a waste of time. Don't waste
your money too!!

Moving from k800i, i had high expectations for the k850i. I still love
it. improved screen resolution, nice design. i like the auto search
feature. same old software but i dont like the way they ve interchanged
the file manager with media. the file manager is rather inside organizer
and i think that is a poor choice. i have also noticed improved sound
quality. The camera is serious, i have not faced any of the problems
complained about by the other comments. My biggest problem and headache
is the screen goes off sometimes when in use and no amount of will power
has been able to bring it back unless you wait for some 10 - 30 minutes
and then you press * + unlock to unlock it and even sometimes after
pressing UNLOCK, it goes back again. I wannt to believe that it is a
setting that makes it behave so. i will keep coming back here so if
any one has a solution i will be grateful. I dont want to think that
the screen has a problem

Had it a week - love the phone in every way EXCEPT I AM INCREDIBLY DISAPPOINTED
WITH THE CAMERA! I had a W800i before and that was better than this!
Every shot I have taken in the dark has been total blackness even with
the flash - the flash "flashes" but the photo is pitch black. Inddors
but in good light, the flash operate sand the photo looks horrendously
"orange" - I've played with almost every variation of settings, Imade
sure my fingers are completely clear of the front of the camera - no
difference. For a phone that makes a big deal fo the 5Mp camera this
is slightly concerning. I've now arranged for it to be replaced when
they come back in stock with Vodafone... I'm hoping I've just a got
a duff unit at the moment and the replacement will restore my faith.

Perfect phone, any smaller and the camera would not handle well. Very
good photo's - as for the black picture mentioned in previous reviews
- this is not an issue if you know how to use the phone, pushing the
button half down before taking the photo will focus the photo and make
the flash work correctly.

I can't understand why this phone has such an outstanding review. I
had this phone for less than one day before returning it. It was an
upgrade on o2. The blue square of light round the two top buttons is
quite off putting when trying to text, apart from the very small keys
being well spaced apart and the surface becoming very smeary. You have
to use the touch screen on the right of the phone to make the phone
go back, which takes a little getting used to. The phone I had froze
when trying to edit a picture. I managed to accidentally connect to
wap without meaning to, bill would have been scary if I hadn't spotted
it! When taking pictures you have to be very careful to hold the phone
by the edges only, don't touch the back of the phone at all or the pictures
will be very dark. Even being careful though the pictures weren't as
good as those taken with a K800i. Plus points it looks good, but apart
from that I was too disappointed to keep it so bought another w810i,
which imo is still a better phone.

Great Phone, Looks are ok, better than K800 anyway, has lots of features,
(check out the TRACK ID function which tells you the name of the song
you're playing). Camera is brilliant as well, for all those struggeling
with bad images, there is a whole section of settings which lets you
adapt the camera to the ambience, if your shooting inside and the picture
turns out dark you might wanna try a twilight preset.. Keys can be a
bit of a pain sometimes, especially the cancel key while texting I often
hit the top right touchbutton inadvertedly.. but workable.. Other than
that, no issues so far, had the phone for 1 month, no probs

I too waited months for this phone, and after 5 days it was sent back,
same problems as previous people have posted. Buttons are FAR too small,
the edge of my thumb got sore from pressing the space button while texting
(I probably text more than the average person, but you shouldn't get
a sore bit while doing so?!) I am a girl, with average sized fingers,
and still managed to press the wrap around buttons (that go around the
2 and 5 buttons) when texting, how to men manage?? The touch sensitive
buttons sometimes worked, sometimes didn't. They often needed to be
pressed again, and then the next minute it would in the menu section
when I didn't mean to?! I also had the same problems with the camera,
inside photos were rubbish, subject was ok but the background was completely
black, even when daylight outside. I compared the same scene using both
the K850 and the K800 (my previous phone) and the K800 won every time.
The look of the phone is cheap aswell, how can people say it looks sexy??
It's plasticy and picks up every finger print going!! Apart from the
camera been better (apparently) there are no further developments between
the previous SEs, I have had the K750 and the K800 so was really looking
forward to this phone, I'm so dissapointed. I'm now back to using my
K800 until I find a decent phone, all the 5MP camera phone's seem to
have problems, in one way or another, so I'm going to bide my time.

I like others waited for this phone for a LONG time. previously had
K750i, and then the K800i. i LOVED these phones, and loved how each
one just got better. Hence my disappointment when getting this phone.
Maybe my phone was faulty as someone previously stated, but seems to
be fair few of them about. the camera was not as good as the K800i,
with side by side tests to make sure, both video and pictures. This
was so disappointing to me, as i had come to rely on good camera phone
as a norm, even using it as a primary camera on holiday. Could not imagine
that with this phone. Apart from the camera, the software just seems
slow. they really do seem to have put too much in that it can't handle.
and lets be honest, its not exactly a sexy phone. its big, and the buttons
are annoying. After so many years with Sony Ericsson, I am bitterly
disappointed, and whats worse... I have now gone to Nokia, something
i swore i would never do! Now got the Nokia 6500 slide. Now thats sexy!
Camera not as great as old K800i, the battery is rubbish, and it too
has some freezing issues. apart from that, its lovely, and still better
than the K850i!.... looking forward to the day when a decent phone comes
out.

HAve posted a review earlier and read peoples comments so thought it
was time for an update! Having got to grips with Sonys Media software
for the PC it is a very easy to get cds and album art on to the phone
now so I`m happy. One of the main issues (apart from the tiny keys)
that people have is the camera not working properly or not taking very
good pics. I have to say that these people either have a faulty phone
or they have not got the thing set to 5MP! It is easily the best phone
available at taking high quality pics (that includes using the flash
too!). If it doesn`t work properly get a replacement!! As regards the
return button that someone asked about - if you press the end call button
(next to the `C`) then it will return you to the main menu.

Has anyone else had the following problem: The phone crashes from the
"media" screen (via bottom left screen "media" option); specifically
when you opt for Photos. It turns the phone off for about 15 seconds.
In addition, the same Media summary screen lists me as having ZERO files
on the camera - no photos, no music, no video - even though these are
all visible via File Manager (which annoyingly is buried in the Organiser
- took me a while to find this). Essentially this bug makes phone unusable
as anything other than a phone - and I will have to send back ..unless
anyone has ideas/ fixes? The touch screen was a nice touch - didn't
realise it had this. The flash was appalling (unkeepable photos) last
night compared with the k800i. Only used flash once but early signs
not promising on that front.

Waited 2 months for this phone to come out, used it for 1 day before
sending it back, i am so disappointed. I wanted it mainly for the camera
and although pictures taken outside are great, the pics inside are dark,
even with the flash. The keys are terrible to txt with and the touch
buttons are a nightmare, the automatic keyguard comes on almost as soon
as you put the phone down and there doesnt seem to be a way to change
this or turn it off, contacts and messages are stored to the phone or
memory card with no option of the sim card, there isnt a volume button
on the handset for when you are using the phone, and, the call register
and redial list only shows the last time a person phoned you or you
phoned them or the time of the last missed call - it doesnt show how
many times. I have been using a samsung and before that, a nokia, so
maybe a sony ericsson just isnt the phone for me.

Before I have used a W810 and a K810, both of which were excellent.
After waiting months for this phone I have been very dissapointed. After
6 days I returned it, as it was so unstable. Camera playback mode kept
crashing, alarm didn't play MP3 file it just beeped, phone reset itself
twice and then wouldn't recognise sim, the menu was slow and unrepsonsive...
The new dedicated media menu is also very, very slow. If you have anymore
than 80 songs on your phone, you have to wait a few minutes for it to
even load up all the track names! Never a problem even on my old W810.
All other Sony phones I have used in the past have been excellent, rock
solid devices, but this phone just doesn't even feel finished! Maybe
in the future firmware updates will solve these issues, but why should
I pay £350 for a phone that I can't use out of the box? These problems
simply shouldn't exist. Such a shame a company the size of Sony can't
even release a phone that works. I think after many years of loyalty
I will be moving brands, as this has really put me off future products.

I bought this to replace my tatty K800I and first impressions on opening
the box were fantastic, this truly is a stunning looking phone! But
scratch under the surface and a few little niggles emerge...Firstly,
the buttons while well spaced are very small and not so easy to press
with big fingers. Secondly, the touch sensitive buttons are a nice touch
but too fiddly and over sensitive and you'll often end up going online
without realising etc. Thirdly, theres no RETURN button! This is probably
the most annoying thing, when you spend 2 years using this little button
that gets you to the main page and they all of a sudden remove it for
no reason, that IS annoying...If it ain't broke. Fourthly, The shiny
surface looks great when out of the box but after 2 minutes of holding
it, it gets smudged with LOADS of finger marks, not cool.... And lastly
(I think...), although it states it is a 5 megapixel camera I found
the that my trusty K800 (3.2 megapixels) took better pictures! It has
an weird light sensor thats a bit erratic and occasionally makes bright
colour full pictures dull, I think there has been a bit of cost cutting
involved...Um...Or maybe I've just got a faulty one.... Overall, Not
perfect and has its flaws (And ever so slightly disappointing) but still
very very desirable and much loved!

Having been very used to the Sony K800, I found the buttons to be quite
difficult to use on the K850i. my messages look like that I have only
started to use predictive texting, mistakes and spelling issues all
over the place. The Buttons are alot smaller and need a bit of pressure.
I haven't got fat fingers but if I did I would hate to think what I
would be sending. Also the touch screen is either to sensitive or to
stubborn. Weird! The camera is totally amazing, although it could really
do with a cover over the lens like the previous phone. Handling the
phone can make it greasy thus giving a hazy picture when taken. Make
sure the back is cleaned before saying cheeeessse!.

which gives phone a cheap feel. Occasional system crashes and freezes.
I'm hugely disappointed with this phone. With a little more effort from
SE, this would have been the best phone on the market since its feature
set is extremely impressive. As it is, I really couldn't recommend this
phone to anyone.

for all u ppl who ar having problems with pictures in dark, if ur using
a flash, try placing ur hands back from the flash, i was told by an
assistant when i sampled one before ordering that u need to hold it
like a proper digital camera (i.e fingers on the sides not resting over
the back otherwise u cover the flash and it doesnt help pic quality

I had been eagerly awaiting the release of this to replace my W850i
- however I was sadly disappointed with it and will be returning and
replacing with the k800i. I love the touch screen, but dislike the tiny
keys and also the fact that 97% of my pics come out dark with or without
flash. I wanted this phone specifically as a decent point and shot camera
phone, but found it lacking in that department.

Love the phone but.... so disappointed with the camera! I have had the
same problems as other users but after I had spoke to the customer service
rep at O2 she then informed me that the phone has no night mode. I am
not sure if this is just an error from the young lady I spoke to or
have SE made us wait for a handset that that camera wise is suppose
to be better than its predecessor but comes no where near it! Phone

a mind of its own and decides to disable the whole of the keypad and
touchscreen so i cannot end the call, keep having to take the battery
out to end the call! The amount of times this has happened is ridiculous,
i love se phones but they have made a complete mess of this! Im looking

Had this phone for nearly two weeks now and is definately a pain to

the first person in my phone book because of the touch sensitive buttons
on the screen. The touch buttons do not always work either. Altogether

Wow, what a phone. Like in Steve’s comment below, you should compare
this phone to other phones before giving your verdict. I went for the
Sony W910i and I took it back to the shop and exchanged it for a K850i
and I must say, I cannot find any fault with it what so ever. I don’t
understand why some people are having problems taking pictures in Daylight
with this phone. All pictures that I have taken with this phone came
out perfect. I did have the Nokia N95, and I must be honest with you,
the K850i beats the Nokia N95 hands down. I don’t know whether
if any of you have had experience owning the N95, but when I had one
the phone kept on crashing, I even had the software up-dated on it,
but it still kept on crashing on me. I believe, that if you want a phone
with a good camera on, is choose a manufacture that produces digital
cameras. Nokia do not make digital cameras, and this is why, Nokia could
never beat Sony Ericsson with camera quality on their phones. I can
also say that the Music player on the K850i is amazing the supplied
headset does the job but has a nasty pair of foam covered ear plugs,
so a adaptor bridging Sony Ericsson's Fast Port and a 3.5mm jack socket
wouldn't be a bad use of money if you plan on spending a lot of time
listening to music. Verdict Sony Ericsson's K850i is a fantastic piece
of design, well built, nice to use and with all the features you expect
from a top-end phone. I wish I could give this phone 10 stars.

it much easier to use for those of us with fat fingers. The build quality
seems good and is pretty easy to use to. The camera seems better to,
once you have wiped all the finger prints from the screen. Constant
cleaning will be required to keep it finger print free but hey one wipe

I've had this phone for a couple of days now and i have to say it's
excellent. There are only two things i can find wrong with it. The first
isn't a major problem (except to your wallet!) as it's simply the amount
of memory on the actual phone and the fact that they only give you a
512mb micro card (i have just purchased a 4gb memory card which i would
recommend) In all fairness to sony ericsson the phone does come packed
with a hell of a lot of software loaded into it s i guess that takes
away a lot of the phones internal memory. The other problem isn't so
easily fixed, The three soft keys at the top of the keypad and just
under the screen do take a bit of getting used to but then you realise
that they are a very good idea, the problem comes from when you are
speaking on the phone and the keys start working just from having them
close to the side of your face, mainly a problem when using voicemail
or something that you have to input numbers as you find yourself having
to go back through to the main screen before you can slect what you
want. This doesn't distract from the overal phone to much though and
i would deffinetly recommend it, hopefully soon I'll remember to hold
the handset a little bit away from my face and the problem will go away.

my poor friend Adam who is first in my phone book, just cos when you're
on a call there's no way of deactivating the touchscreen, and my face
had been pressing buttons. I rang SE and there's no way of disabling
the touchscreen so that the phone bahves itself when you talk. I've
also had recordings made on the phone due to the 'face pressing buttons'
problem. It's a total nightmare. I cannot believe SE made such a high
profile and lovely looking phone (luminous green is HOT) and didn't

think te fone is really suarve and sophisticated looking. I will be
honest though, I was expecting a few more features and also the buttons
are a bit small and the casing a bit tacky feeling and picks up too
many finger prints etc. However, these are minor issues and dont really
spoil the fone but just could of been improved before releasing, oh
well. This mobile is great and on o2 for 35 quid with the fone free
is a great deal, no network logo or dedicated network key either which
is good. I love sony ericssons and this has done them justice, the camera
is just awesome :D i was just wondering if any of you have a blue version

cut keys what say contacts and media, the touchscreen is great but when
your in a call now instead of it saying end call in the bottam corner
you dont have that option anymore, you have to physically end the call
by clicking a button on the actual keypad further down, im sending mine
back after only 4 hours of having it due to its faults and im unsure
now whether to get another? Its also heavier than the K800i and wider
although its not as long. Its not a very stylish looking phone if im

If you're buying this sort of toy you will accept the fact that comparing
to other mobiles this one is quite big and heavy. After my order was
delivered I was a bit dissapointed to see that the blue version has
silver edges, it looks stubpid, but after all I didn't buy it for the
looks. In fact I bought is as I was considering getting a good digital
camera and thought since this is 5MP I could actually get this and kill
to birds with one stone as at the same time I was tired of the fact
that my Samsung thinks slower than I do. The K850i is only missing two
things: WiFi and Windows Mobile (so that I could use skype on it and
forget about phone bills). The camera is not as great as I thought it
would be. The pictures are quite good but the colors might dissapoint
you. One thing I love about SE mobiles is the ease of navigating through
all the options. No Nokia, Samsung or other Motorolla (especially Moto)
is this easy to get used to. After my first K750i I just couldn't use
any other phone (had a Samsung and a few Nokias since) untill I finally
got this one. It's reliable, easy to use, looking good, with great sound
quality and lots of options, surely better than any NOKIA or Samsung
(not mentioning the never changing Moto) Just don't buy it for the camera...

that stop this being a 5 star phone. Firstly it creeks! Whilst txting
or pressing buttons the back of the phone creeks! Whilst a minor matter
it doesnt give the phone an expensive "feel". It is also a finger print
magnet! You will be forever cleaning this phone as the back and the
front pick up everything! The keys are also a little small and the obvious
problem of wrapping the directional keys round the 2 and 5 keys becomes
apparant to anyone with large fingers! Having said all that it is a
nice phone and will do pretty much everything you`d expect and does
it with style. Little known is the fully fledged Walkman player with
megabass and the headphones supplied are of superb quality. The software
that comes with the phone tho typical Sony and is tricky to get to grips
with at first. So back to simple drag and drop! So 4 and a half stars
for me as the creek and finger prints are annoying!!!

Awful touch screen controls RUIN an otherwise good phone. I've had the

of phone. The K800i wasn't the lightest or the slimmest of phones, but
it "felt" quality, the build was awesome, the plastic had an expensive
feel to it, the camera was awesome. Sadly, it looks as if I'll be sticking
with the K800i for a while. I got the K850i the other day and near-enough
put it through the window within 15 minutes. The touch screen controls
are schizophrenic, they can't make up their mind if they wanna be ultra-sensitive
(push up on the dpad and it selects for you instead) or completely dead
to the world (20 pushes and NOTHING happens). The keypad overall is
TOO small - who do Sony Ericsson think we are, midgets? The phone itself
feels cheap, the plastic feels like it would break with the slightest
knock. In the mean time I'm going to have to look at purchasing another
brand of phone, probably my second favourite - Samsung. While I'm in
the minority, avoid this phone. Especially if you have big fingers or

Just got this phone and it's realy great. I have had an 810i previously

all of the main functions of a seperate one means I don't have to carry
my camera with me when I go out now, and I have a great MP3 player.
The phone looks really futuristic and all the functions work really
well. The only gripes I have is that when using a 4gb memory card it
slows the phone down a bit and the buttons take a bit of getting used
to as they are pretty small. Also why do Vodafone insist on having that
stupid live button that gets hit now and then meaning you are connected

Got the k850 yesterday and so far have been really impressed with it.
There have been a couple of software glitches like the camera flash
going off out of sync with the shutter - producing a big black picture,
and then the volume button not working apart form showing the phone
status but they were sorted by restarting the application or the phone.
The accelerometer is fantastic and its that along with the other wee
details make it really cool; the light that comes on momentarily round
the lens when the camera is turned on is pointless but rather flashy,
and something really useful that I haven't seen talked about is the
tiny bumps on the edges of the back of the casing keeping the back off
the surface you put it on. I'd thought the touch sensitive buttons were
going to be annoying to use because of the slight delay but there's
a handy indicator on the screen round the button to let you know when
you do touch it. The media centre is also really smart but I'd better
shut up now.
