The camera phone market is a market that literally exploded last year. Sony Ericsson Cybershot K800 is the successor to the K750.
This device is first of all a cell phone that, for data transfer, works with both GPRS and UMTS, then it is a true 3G cell phone. Sony Ericsson K790 is GSM/GPRS/EDGE only. The design of the Sony Ericsson K800 is very similar to that of a digital camera. It offers a really big screen. Holding the Sony Ericsson K800 vertically, well we have a mobile phone, and holding it horizontally we are back with digital camera sensations. All photos are in the best resolutions of 3.2 megapixels (2048×1536).
Sony Ericsson K800 is PictBridge compatible. The purpose of camera phones is not just to take photos and leave them on the cell phone. It basically consists of printing them. Sony Ericsson K800 is designed for this purpose and offers multiple solutions, such as, first of all, PC connection but also PictBirdge compatibility that allows you to print your photos with a printer, which is also PictBridge, without going through a computer. Just use a USB cable. The cell phone has a 16x digital zoom, an autofocus and a Xenon type Flash. To expand the 64 MB internal memory, you must use the new MemoryStick Micro (1 GB max.).
Sony Ericsson K800 is also for professionals. You can browse HTML, search RSS feeds, Sony Ericsson K800 also supports push email and its connectivity is extended with USB 2.0 and Bluetooth for wireless fans. And to relax, Sony Ericsson K800 is also an MP3 player.
To access the Internet, in addition to directly integrated Google and RSS feed reader, we can also point to a Netfront web browser. That said, in my opinion, Opera Mini is still the best for browsing on a cell phone. We also found an integrated module for chat.
With regard to messaging functions, we can request that the Sony Ericsson K800 regularly collect new emails (push function). However, the phone cannot read Word and PDF.
The device also integrates a flash player that is capable of reading animated flash and SVG formats. However, the device does not integrate a 3D accelerator for games. You’ll have to stick to those standard java games. However, the device is now multi-threaded, meaning you can launch multiple Java applications, read your email, and listen to music all at the same time.
The cell phone has three games: FotoQuestFishing and MiniGolf.
As for music, even if the Sony Ericsson K800 does not belong to the W (Walkmann) series, we can still play MP3/AAC, AAC+ and eAAC+. FM radio is still RDS. A new function allows you to connect to Sony Ericsson servers to analyze the song you are listening to and provide data about it.
It is possible to add up to 1000 contacts. It is also possible to assign a specific ringtone per contact, as well as a photo.
Battery life with the standard 900 mAh Li-Po battery varies with use. 2.5 hours in 3G mode, 7 hours in GSM talk time and 14 days in standby mode. Video recording is still so bad (176×144 pixels) because Sony Ericsson plans to launch a dedicated device for this type of use.
The Sony Ericsson K800 cell phone is available in velvet black or allure brown.
