Sony Ericsson K800i Review
August 13, 2006 11:23 pmGot a K800i for free upgrade, initially was just going to sell it. But knowing that it has a good camera and I really need a camera, I decided to give it a try. And after a few days I have decided to keep it as it would save me money for a getting a camera. And the quality of the camera is quite impressive. Although not as good as a standard digital camera, it’s good enough for me.
The design of the K800i is quite good overall, although it’s a bit big and the lens cover can get a bit annoying as it slicks out. Therefore I have decided to get it a case. After looking around eBay, have decided to go for a (plastic) crystal case instead of a silicon case. There are mainly two type that they are selling, one protect the sliding cover of the lens more and the other doesn’t. At the end I got the one that covers the lens cover which you can see below.

This arrive quite quickly and I’m quite impressive with it. My main concern is that the case doesn’t make the phone any more buky and fit well. I have to say it does the job quite well.
3G banner - If you bought your phone from 3G as well, I am sure you know what I mean. They put a scrolling ad banner at the bottom of the screen, took me a while to find out how to get rid of it. For this paticular phone, go to
- Menu > Settings > General > Instant Viewer
and disable it. If you are using other phone, you should also be able to find it under the Instand Viewer settings possibly in a different menu. Can try
- Menu > Settings > Display > Standby Mode Settings > Instant Viewer
Overall I’m quite happy with the phone and here are some sample of the photos taken with this phone.
