Advantages: Excellent Camera, Excellent Reception quality

Disadvantages: none really

I own a K800i on contract with Three mobile. I get 450 minutes and 150 texts for a tenner a month. I'm told this is a good deal as I've been with Three for a few years. I pay a fiver for an extra hundred texts, and although I don't use the full extra hundred its less than it costs paying for the ones I've gone over by. I find the service from Three to be very good now, and all of the early problems that gave them a bad name seem to have been ironed out, certainly in my area. I also use Three for mobile broadband, and get this half price as I'm an existing customer. The mobile broadband is also quite fast, and I would recommend Three to anyone.
I have been using the K800i for the past eighteen months. It is without a doubt the best mobile I have used to date.
The camera is excellent. The battery life is excellent. The menus are easy to get to grips with. It runs fast and smooth. It is strong, but not too heavy.
I use it with Three UK, and have high speed web access. The built in browser is ok, but with the opera mini browser installed it is easy to browse most web sites.
I tend to use the camera on the phone instead of carrying a separate digital camera, as the quality is more than good enough for 6x4 photos. I also use the built in MP3 player. I like the way I can change tracks and volume without unlocking the phone. All in all this is a great phone. The only feature that ever let it down for me is that it doesn't have voice recognition dialling like the new Nokias, so a tag has to be recorded for each number I want to voice dial.
This phone also offers very good sound quality when making a call, which is of course more important than the bells and whistles. The reception quality is very good, and rarely loses a signal. The phone will not cut you off mid-call if you are just in the house or strolling along. Signal can be lost when in the car, but this is the same for all phones. The loudspeaker is great, and my three year old daughter likes this feature a lot so she can talk to people easily. It connects easily to all the bluetooth headsets I've tried it with.

Summary: Best Phone I've used
