Overall, I have a love/hate relationship with the K3 over the K2. I love the smaller size and the browser is so much better. I hate the keyboard missing the numbers now, I prefer the K2 power switch/headphone placement and the page buttons are harder to use on the K3. The K2 just seemed classier. The plastic on the K2 seemed "better" and the stainless steel back definitely gave it an air of quality. The K3 seems "cheap" in comparison.
Overall, I wish I could get the K3 guts in a K2 body. But the better browser and special offers win the day for the K3.
Great post! Thanks for the mini comparison between the two devices! I will go with the K3! Cheers!
