Sony Ericsson phones are generally better to use. Samsungs have little things that annoy you at first but then really bug you after a while.

I've used bith & I know my phones. W800i is the clear winner

i'm planning on upgrading to a w800 in a month.
do they come witha different colour case.?

silver and orange is a tad 'look at me'.
a black one would be ace,

May seem a little vauge but the general day to day use of it is great.

Battery life is good, & it gives you an accurate reading of how much is left (1-100%). On Samsungs it is done with just 3 bars which often means they're charged too regularly. Also if you put it on charge for 2 mins it goes full again.Even though it isn't

Texting system is very good. Predictive text especially. If you dont use it now you will after using this phone. Nothing is hard to find (symbols etc) you can add little animations, plus when you get to the sending bit it lists the last 10 people you've sent messages to. I find it very handy Samsungs area pain to get the symbols up etc

More memory as standard. If you upgrade the memory the card may work in other devices. The Z500 uses the trans-flash card. Not many things use this

It looks better

You get the full PC suite. Get a few cool bits on the software CD too


Cant be arsed to type anymore
