Charge my phone for the first time empty last nite. my usage details:

Duration : approx 46-47hours (nearly two days)

Calls :
1 hr 54 minutes

Photos taking :
80-90 pics (forgot how many, since i deleted few after taking)
with flash and also without flash

Music listened : maybe 1 to 1.5 hours

Games played : 1 hrs approx

Video recording : No

No 3G, Bluetooth, IR usage.

Is that long enough for this phone?

Anyone success connected pc suite thru bluetooth??
I can. Fail...

nevermind, its done!

our moderator Sonyclie77 said the phone only last 1 day if use 3G,

if normal 2 days+

after the advice from the sifus, i charged it 8 hours, now it's better, can last 3 days, normal usage

actually the performance of k800 loud speaker as good as w810i or w800 or k750??

Just the question I wanted to ask. Is the audio playback any good? The camera is out of the question cause too perfect to be compared.

Don't have the phone yet - very tempted to walk down to phone shop to get it.

I read somewhere that to enable the image stabiliser you have to use landscape/panoramic (or something mode) - then use the menu and turn stabiliser on.

I think it's on the Sony website... Let me check.... (see here http://www.sonyericsson.com/spg.jsp?cc=my&...pid=10407#4172)

"Image stabilizer
Improve the quality of your pictures with Image Stabilizer. The Image Stabilizer function will compensate small hand vibrations that can make pictures blurred. It works in two modes:

Twilight landscape
Landscape

To select and activate Image Stabilizer, you need to turn on the camera and go to:
1. Settings > Scenes and choose either Twilight landscape or Landscape.
2. Then go back to Settings > Turn On Image Stabilizer.
"

So tempted but also thinking of waiting for N73 to compare. However, N73 seems to have no fixed launch date - and looks to be at least 2-3 months more till we see it.

well it is quite a long abuse to the battery...
how many days??? 1 day only???


@Joker339,
can't tell if the N73 can challange it or not...
not N80 cannot lo... compared by GSM arena...
K800i wins... on photo snapping side... n in general use...
Well video recording N80 wins... video is the down side of K800i...

well for use if N73 can win then sharp or others phone can produce much better one after few months...
So technology keep on improving...

n73 is a slightly better deal than k800 IMHO. but u might have to pay up to 100% more for a small 1% increase in function.....dont think its worth...

i've never heard any of W810i or W800 except W550, and i guanrantee u wont be expecting sounds like that in K series, at least for the time being.

thats walkman series, designed with better sound system but less camera function.

but the sound's still good to me, except if u use full volume, the sound will crack ur speaker.

abuse? just trying to use it to full usage. u know while i was taking pictures i plays the mp3s too. thats the reason the battery did not last longer rite?

well i just want to test how long the phone can last with quite heavy usage. but i think thats quite good, to last nearly 2 days... with such abusement.

p/s: i charged it 8 hours.

Wow... 2 days is quite good already woh... u try on Nokia..
i think not more than 36 hours it' battery dead liao...

ya, its good rite. next i wanna try it without any usage from the camera, mp3 playing. just call and sms. regular usage. lets look it last for how long.

so everything is ok with ur phone now?battery is OK?

Well it's camera is better la... then we have to pay RM2500 worth it or not???
We can tell it is on the spec only...
N90 camera also lose to K750i la... RM2888 vs RM 1999 (RRP price not sure)
which wat we can see now on K800i n N80... RM1999 vs RM 2500 (RRP price not sure)
So lets see SE will produce wat to take it down again...

BTW i don think it is way better lo...
jus slightly only...
N SE is using lesser capacity battery also... which last longer than N73's 1100mAh....
If SE use bigger capacity battery as Nokia... no need to tell liao...

So i don think it will be much cheaper than RM2300


note: previous post doubled... server not responce so i send again...

magiara,
normal usage means... jus call about 1 hours per day n 20 messages per day???

it is quite a known fact for the cybershot digital camera series =/

the thing is .. nokia's n series uses symbian base(which should consume more energy - correct me if i'm wrong) and also the wifi function on the n series sucks up the batt =)

the thing is .. with the megabass on the walkman phones it is definately louder .. on loud speaker you can hear the difference..

even so .. the sound quality thru the headsets are almost the same ..

unless you are an serious audiophile then you will hear the diff .. but if you are not .. you wont really hear much diff ..

its long enough actually .. hmm .. but did you .. erm .. charge for a full 8 hours before you uise the batt?

no la, got take photos, mp3, call, and sms

Normal nearly 2 days.

If 3G is on, then it might be as short as 1 day only, depending on usage.
