W995 better build? I don't think so. I had 4 replacements when I had it & all had sliders that literally rattled(no kidding)at the bottom part. Also camera was poor(imo)screen & music yes is better but also regarding build. The back cover. Never fitted properly or clicked into place. Nothing wrong with Elm's build at all it's a nice solid device. @Plank even though X10 Mini is Android can the camera still be modded? I know little or next to nothing about modding. Only mods

poorer. hope you kidding a bit here.

995 camera is often very good (and yes sometimes weak),
but tell me some cellphone-camera who performs 100% accurate)........at least you get rid of the yellow nuance as ELM produce.

ELM produce slightly sharper pics though but, overall camera wins ! (better, more natural colours)


ps..
about 995 build quality...i think its very very good.....not many cellphones who feels as robust as 995.

995 more natural colors?
Now you're kidding,right?
The abundance of purple fringing and the smeared details is a BIG disadvantage...
The yellow nuance can be tamed using WB settings,AFAIK.
The poor module camera on 995 not.
Of course,i'm talking about the camera only.
The over(not at)all,yes,the walkman is better.

Depends on what feature you are looking for, Camera mainly, Elm is way better than w995. Sounds and display the w995 is better than Elm, might I suggest Hazel? same 2.6 screen size and vibrant display as the w995 and has the same camera as the Elm, the only downside though is the bad LED flash If I were to choose between the two I pick Elm but that's just me

I definitely not agree here.....

w995 photo section....
http://www.esato.com/phonepho[....]make=Sony+Ericsson&model=W995a
great photos with good colours....(maybe you need glasses as my granny (he he)

besides.....who gives a crap how a cellphone camera behaves in full size ??...buy a DSLR cam if you love watching your pics in full size

and NO, ELM have still yellow nuance inside their pictures, the issue doesn't go away just because you change the WB (you just get a smaller amount of yellow....still there)

Elm has a better camera, but the W995 has better music quality. Plank is contradicting himself again

your skills about photographing is just mediocre........always have, always been,


to the rest of Esato......
....compare two pictures between w995 and ELM and you clearly see how more accurate colour rendition is on w995.

@plank
Where do my "skills about photographing" come into this? I never said they are above/below mediocre, you just use this as an excuse to troll that's not part of the discussion.
It doesn't take a genius to look at two photos and see which is better, try upgrading your monitor

@fluke9
I would go for the Elm, unless music quality is important to you, it has most of the features of the W995 with better camera/video recording at a much lower price. I would ask members who have used both phones to know pros/cons of each
