The camera is brilliant. This is something that SE takes pride in with the K810i. So we ran the camera through some comprehensive tests. The fact that it features 3.2 MP is of absolutely no use, since blowing the picture up to its actual size will show too much noise to bear.
Photos were decent; a lot crisper than what most mobile cameras churn out these days. But one problem was that the most pictures turned out dull. You can get up to 2048 x 1536 pixels, and the autofocus is decent. You can shoot video in QCIF format.
If you want a good music player you need to look at the Walkman series of SE phones, for this one is just average. The FM radio reception quality is good, but listening pleasure is reduced considerably because of the bad quality of the bundled earphones.
If you listen to songs, click a lot of pictures (with flash) and make around 10 longish calls a day, better carry your charger with you. I wasn’t very happy with the battery. The manual claims it offers up to 400 hours of standby, but I doubt it.
The K810i offers nothing new, and at its price of Rs 14,500 is not value for money. Of course, it has a good camera, but that’s not the first thing in your list of necessities in a phone, is it? For a lower price you can get another SE phone – the w580i – which offers not only great music, but also a good camera and a pedometer.
