Sony Ericsson K850i
April 27, 2009
The Sony Ericsson K850i has a gorgeous display, a wide range of features, and desirable sound quality. It’s also a fantastic camera phone with outstanding photo quality.The Sony Ericsson K850i’s navigation array and touch controls take a little getting used to. Also, the keypad buttons are rather small.
Though its navigation controls and keypad aren’t up to par, the Sony Ericsson K850i is one of the finest camera phones we’ve seen.Like most Sony Ericsson handsets, the K850i has a standard candy bar design. With its sleek black hue and green highlights, it’s eye-catching without being ostentatious. At 4 inches by 1.9 inches by 0.7 inch, it has an average size though it’s a bit weighty at 4.2 ounces. Sony Ericsson always does a good job with its displays, and the K850i is no exception. The 2.25-inch (320×240 pixels) screen supports a bright 262,144 colors. It shows everything well, from graphics to photos and text, and the menus are simple and easy to use. You can adjust the clock size and the brightness, but no other options are customizable.
Sony Ericsson excels at a lot of things, but cell phone design isn’t always the company’s strong point. It’s not that its phones are ugly (most of the time they’re quite pretty), but controls tend be too stylish for their own good. The K850i has the same problem; it’s stylish and sharp, but we found its navigation array and camera controls not so easy to use. But before we get there, let’s address the good stuff first.
