Don't A2 platform phones have 16mb of ram, the old A1 phones are 8mb or something.

Yes N80 had 19-21mb which is not enough at all and on top of that its not able to handle Java as well as a SE Dumb Phone can but it could still keep on going smoother than a K850.

I think, you guys should check out w760i. Though i didnt multitask in it, its single operations were the fastest i have seen so far.

By using some utilities, I found K850 preserve 1MB RAM for it's java app.

Processor is different, we can't compare ARM11 in N80 with ARM9 in K850. It's like comparing Core2Duo with early Pentium 4. Symbian requires more RAM and processing power.

Something like this: A200 vs Symbian = Win98 vs WinVista in terms of memory and processor requirement.

Although I prefer A200's UI.

SE hardware platform is quite old for nowadays. Still the same hardware since K800. ARM9 also doesn't have enough power to do VGA recording.

Just for information, and I still love SE.

K850's CPU is running at 220mhz right? Well my old N80's CPU is the same speed with little RAM as well and guess what? Its able to do the same with not as much lag as a K850.
Who's dumb? SE.



Sadly, K850's CPU is 153Mhz not 220 just like the newer A200 phones.

Yes but on W810 you can't multitask several java apps.

ur damn right...... you cant run two java applications, or start camera when a java application (software or game) is running..... serious multitasking is done only on smartphones...!!!

SE isnt dumb, you are. It obvious that the nokia counterpart will be faster or display less lag because it is not as content heavy and complex as the k850i, the applications within the phone use less processing power then the k850. the gui alone in the k850i is requires more processing power then some nokia's 2x.

Eg. Just look at the k850i Media player
constant position monitoring (Accelerometer)
Running and selecting appropriate audio codecs & video codecs
processing image & video previews
Smooth Transition Effects (menus and display graphics)
updating track list
signal update
standby for call n msgs
list goes on...
(not to say that none of this goe son in the nokia phone but that alot of damn work for a small processor.
thats just some of the things i am sure the phone is constantly processing... lord knows what else the phone is actually doing.

What do you mean feature phones cant multi task. I can use camera and have a couple of apps open at the same time and this whole time experinceing only minimal slowdown.
