Expect better graphics, more animations and better menu transitions/personalization ever in an SE phone! - i would be glad to see it based on symbian 9.5 as well

sorry, off-topic

**Love my K750i and currently use W850i**

Fellas, excellently entertaining posts! I haven't posted here in ages.

At the moment I'm torn between K850i and N95 8GB ver.

I'm a long-time SE user and just love their phones and UIs. But I definitely have to say that the N95 8GB is a heavy contender and if it weren't for my preference in SEs I would have and still thinking of going N95 8GB.

To me SE blew it when they decided not to incorporate GSM/EDGE/850 in their W960, then I had to come down and look at the W910, because well it had GSM 850 (BTW I'm on US AT&T network). BUT the darn thing (W910) didn't have a flash or auto-focus. It was everything I wanted: a slider, walkman and picture camera. BUT NO FLASH!!! You guys don't understand how handy the light feature comes in.

So fine, after all that I was seriously considering the N95 8GB (still am). But alas came the ugliest SE I've seen in a while the K850i!!!! Okay, so good camera (check), light (check), and the deal breaker. 3.0 MUSIC PLAYER.

First and foremost I look for the music player and bluetooth 2.0 A2DP because my car stereo supports it (The JVC KD-BT1).

Finally! Looks like the K850i is the winner. It even has the novelty accelero-thingy. I own a Nokia N73 and I still prefer the Sony UI, its just better IMO. I like little things like how caller ID pictures are displayed, the way the contacts are layed-out. Yes, I'm very picky. If my W850i had auto-focus and GSM 850 with just EDGE, that would be it for me.

I better wrap this up, as I can get carried away easily. Now finding the K850i with everything I needed aesthetics aside. I can live with an ugly phone.

Now a couple of questions about N95 8GB and wifi phones in general. Can you access for example a LAN share, SAMBA or windows files shares via WIFI? Or is it purely for internet access? Also what type of encryption does it use, WEP and WAP PSK-Shared Key etc?

I know the K850i has no wifi, I can live with that and a smaller screen which in turn yields better battery life. 2.2 is about as low as I would go buying a new phone. Other than that, the only thing that would keep me from getting the K850i is a W920i or something that has everything this puppy does, minus a megapixel or two.

Damn that was too long.

EDIT** BTW does the K850i have the light feature?

@sighup
seems you have already decided on what phone you are getting

k850 does indeed have the torch feature... it has a xenon flash for photos, and 3 leds for video recording and the 'torch'

That is why when a person dont know what he is talking about, then this kind of crap misunderstanding comes about. In the article it says:

The patent appears to be discussing the method by which an images could be dynamically resized and rotated rather than the technology behind the orientation sensors. .

So it has nothing to do with the accelerometer (i.e the sensor hardware). UI rotation has been around for ages. WM has it. S60v3 has it. Apple has it. Why isnt SE suing Nokia for incorporating in S60 UI which operate in landscape and portrait?



So now I ask you this. What have you offered in this conversation except inuendos and wrong information. And, oh yeah, SE patented accelerometer technology.

After buying a 8Gb m2/msd card for your K850 the price different is quite minimal. N95 8Gb still beat the crap out of K850 in terms of specs for money.
