i dont see why it would be a stupid decision if one were to choose the k850 over the n95 8GB. YOU might think that, but i think you may be forgetting people have different opinions/needs etc etc to you.

As for price, they might start off at asimilar price, but we all know the k850 will drop dramatically in a couple weeks after its release.



That's why I put in the clause "neutral standpoint".

btw: Hope everyone (esp SE fanboys) have taken note of your warning - that K850 price will drop dramatically in a couple weeks after its release

I'm quite disappointed with the quality of K850i photos. Why didn't they put a CCD sensor that can be found in i-mobile 902 in K850i. It would be a perfect phone if they did that. So far in the battle of these CMOS 5 MP phones the winner is clearly Samsung SGH-G600, but we still have to wait for Samsung F700, LG KU990 & Samsung G800 (although I'm not sure if the last two are going to have a CCD sensor).


Samsung F700


LG KU990


Samsung G800

@SaliH,

I know you also have the i-mobile 902. By now I think you may have noticed why i-mobile put in a 1100mAh battery in the phone, and that the phone tends to heat up when shooting a lot of photos. This is one of the reasons for many of the manufacturers choosing CMOS today: CCD is very power hungry!

Another reason is that a camera phone shooting photos of the quality that the i-mobile 902 produces is a serious threat to the point-and-shoot market. (Have you tried any A3-sized printouts yet? If not, then I recommend this )

The third reason is of course that are MORONS! )

@AbuBasim,

Yes I have noticed that, but I can live with that when I see the photos my phone produces ! Well my K750i had 900mAh battery, and it lasted around 3 days with, every day camera, mp3 player & call usage. So I think 1100mAh battery will last the same. You're right, about CCD sensors being a serious threat to the point-and-shoot market, because I know there are many users that want that all in one device (5 MP CCD camera, MP3 Player & a Phone).We're lucky we got 902!

p.s. And I waited for K850i for so long and now i don't want to buy it.

Whoever says that the K850's sole selling point is the CyberShot doesn't know enough about the specs of the phone to talk about it. How about the fact that it not only has quad-band GSM coverage, EDGE but also boasts tri-band 3G coverage with HSDPA speeds of up to 3.6mbps? For anyone who travels across the pond this is Huge benefit because they can use high-speed internet on both sides. Try using 3g on the Nokia in the US - good luck, you won't find anything but EDGE and that will be at 192 max download.


This is resolved with a N95 US Edition with Dual band (850/1900mhz) 3G for US/Canada/Mexico and South America! Also with a BETTER batter that’ll be RETAIL available at the NY Nokia store weeks before the K850i begins to even SHIP! Don’t pull wool over your eyes with OLD assumptions and outdated facts.

Everyone can speculate as much as they want about the camera portion, but until the phones are in the store, many things can change, firmware being the least. If you think that SE won't change the lens if there is an outcry - think again! Companies have changed entire cases due to negative feedback, might not happen with the 1st wave, but it will if the fringing is not controlled.


Whomever said that “Purple Fringing” is caused by a LENS???? It’s the SENSOR. Example many current and 2 yr old Kodak camaras – point & shoot & the 10x zoom (which uses Multiple Lenses) – have purple fringing around the corners of the images that they take. There is even the case of a Canon A40 – which has interchangeable lenses – that had purple fringing until they revamped their assembly line. No feature changes just the chip!

I have to agree. The k850i seems to be a mass-market phone that appeals through numbers and not sheer performance. It feels like SE is going in a direction that is betraying customers who look for top of the line performance. I used to be a huge SE fan, but I'm simply am not enamored by their products. To be beat by an n95 which was launched months upon months ago (ages in this type of technology life time), which is not a dedicated camera phone but a king convergence device, is not a good sign for any serious buyer.


If SE made phones to be a mass-market phone they'd speed up their product life cycles from 12-14mths to 6-8mths Especially for the top end flagship (currently the K series unless the T series takes over). I think THIS is why the President left.

K850 will STILL be an excellent phone. The majority of the time I pull my phone out of my pocket is STILL to answer/make calls OR to surf internet or change the track I'm listening too. I'm waiting till the 3rd week after final shipment & retail availability arrives.

im very convinced that, when k850i comes, it will blow away all other cell phones with its pic quality.

Purple fringing is for the most part caused by chromatic aberration which is (again) caused by LENS defects.
Let's not have SE devotees making up the "facts" to fit their opinions thank you.
