    But it is true that plastic used by nokia is best among the plastic used by other phone companies...
    Yes stainless steel is more better...
    Samsung Omnia hd is very good in specs sheet but let me know what is the use of Power Svr graphics if the software of Omnia hd doesnt fully support it... Samsung has neither upgrade the firmware of Omnia Hd nor devloped many games for it..

      AAAAAA, Nokia, why an other f..king left-handed qwerty mobile again?!!! Some "unable to rethink" people say that the N97 was a left-handed device, but if it was true I could say that X-Box or PS controllers are also left-handed devices!

      Ok, I understand: they just want to copy the layout of a PC keyboard to make you feel yourself like sitting in front of a computer; BUT a PC keyboard is laid on a desk while a mobile device is held in your hands and it is a very very big difference!!!

            best plastic???
            the best constrution of nokia is stanless steel, the plastic constrution, not the best of market.

            best 8MP camera?? you say the nokia n86 is the best just have Carl Zeins, but you forget LG GC900, have Schneider-Kreuznach optics. Even don't have special XPTO optics, you have SE C905, Samsung i8910 HD, this two cellphone have great foto quality(in 8mp camer.

            And the people dont remember, the more powerfull phone with Symbian, isn't Nokia... lol.. if you want a symbian phone with best processor (600mhz), good foto quality (8mp), graphic performance(PowerVR SGX graphics) and good screen(AMOLED), then you don't buy a Nokia, why? because you don't have a Nokia with this specs, you have a Samsung ( i8910HD ), is a shame for nokia.

                  Nokia always use refurbished materials on alot of there mobiles,but they always end up the Plastic Type,Nokia should change there ideas if they want to compete with Samsung,whos phones look more solid an top class looking mobiles,we do not know the Full Features yet of the C6,but if this is a middle class mobile,the younger generation might like showing of the querty keypads,but loads will end up breaking the C6 easily because of the plastic sliding querty keypad an the slider better be solid from Nokia,like to see what camera will be on the C6 an were is Nokias X series mobiles that everyone who likes Nokia are dying to see an buy

                      Samsung's Tft displays look very unpleasent and Look like 32k color CSTN nokia display...
                      And as far as Amoled is cocerned they are slightly more colorful and vibrant than nokia's 16m color Tft display but only in indoor, outside in the bright sun their color washes out...
                      And Now the question is about Super Amoled, so the gentle man you will soon see this type of display in a Nokia phone, as Amoled displays are implement in Nokia phone soon after Samsung uses it first..
                      And for your kind information Carl Zeiss lenses used by nokia is far better than other.. Yeap some Samsung/S.E. phones are near to them but not much better than Nokia...

                      Nokia had made only one 8mp phone but it is best on class...
                      And Iphone has the best audio quality , And Nokia 5230 is about similar to Iphone...
                      Nokia N series and Xpress music have the same sound quality as SE W series or Samsung Dnse... Understood...
                      The plastic used by nokia in their devies are best and shiny, it doesnt look cheap as nokia uses high quality material on it...

                          Looks great, this device might kill the N97 mini if it got a larger screen.
                          that's why i hate and love Nokia.. just when you think you found the right phone for you they make a better one!

                                    After the LG Shannon the Nokia c6 is the best looking phone announced in 2010 so far. The fact that they use plastic on most of the phone is good as it increases durability and decreases weight.

                                      I don't know why I feel that the phone picture above is for a fake phone. I may be either an artist rendering through photoshop, or a cheap chinese slider copy of the 5800. Time may prove I am mistaken, but I don't think so!
