Great features MP3 player, mp3 ringtones, camera. All in a handy smart package.
General Comments
The mp3 player application remains resident in memory after use (even though you cant see it) this has the result of draining the battery quite quickly (5-6 hours). If you turn the phone off and then turn on again the application isn't loaded and the battery lasts for a few days, there is no option to terminate the application short of rebooting the phone.
Also the phone takes about 1 minute to boot up after switch on. This is due to searching the networks and loading the operating system.
I have now upgraded to a K810I and these "undocumented features" have been resolved in this model. Overall a good little phone.

I've never noticed the music player battery life problem with my w810. I rarely turn it off (probably only once a month) and often accidentally switch the music player on, so the music player should constantly be resident in the memory - but my battery still lasts at least 3 days of normal use which I think is particularly impressive since it's nearly 2 years old and still on the original battery.
