As far as we know, the upcoming Sony Ericsson M610i will basically have all the features of the P1i except the camera. The idea is to make a device for organizations that don’t allow their employees to carry a camera phone while on-the-work. That being said, we’re still not sure why it takes so long for the Swedish-Japanese handset maker to announce the new smartphone. Maybe we’ll see something else built inside the M610i. Maybe HSDPA support, the new interface? Despite the fact that we’ve already seen the device several times in the wild, we don’t have a clue. Guess the upcoming Mobile World Congress will provide us with some answers…

UPDATE: Or it may be totally cancelled as some sources have suggested despite the fact that we’ve seen it passing the FCC hurdle and this is just one of those prototypes. I would love to see Sony Ericsson releasing a statement about it…

It’s holiday season and that’s the right time to get a new camera phone. If you can afford it, you should go for the handset with 5 megapixel camera and a Xenon flash. Two devices come to mind instantly - Sony Ericsson K850i and Nokia N82. While the former is certainly easier to carry around (it’s smaller), the latter is a smartphone and we all know that opens a whole new world of 3rd-party apps. Still, some people may find all they need in the Sony Ericsson’s model.

Anyway, we have tons of photos of the two devices standing side by side which will hopefully help choose the device you like better…
