      hey- i have tried all of these phones and i have bought a k800i. i really like the Nokia's huge screen but thats about it. Sony ericssons will always be much more fun than any other make, and they always look really hi-tech :) ! the samsung is miles behind- but is the best for looks, (a bit girly tho). SONY RULES!!!
      1) K800i
      2) N73
      3)nokia 3310 :P
      3) D900.

          Nokia pics looks just fake. Sony K800 gives the better shots.

          WINNER: SONY ERICSSON K800
          LOSER: NOKIA N73

              NOKIA SUCKS! its the worse brand of phones.. it lags, menu is rubbish, design sucks..
              Compare the photos, cybershot has much more natural colours..
              n73's photos are so fake..

              crap..

                  in theory the n73 has a better camera.carl zeiss optics with a mechanic shutter.but the bad soft spoils it's true potential,so the k800 is the winner.i own a n73 for 4 months now.i bought it because i needed a phone capable of working with office applications(also could opt for the n80,but poor battery,and i don't need the w.lan - good internet at home,besides i'm not such a important person to check my email 3 times per day,so wi-fi is not a must in my case;actually i can't remember when i used last time the phone web browser).and it's not slow.i mean it is'n any more,because of the firmware update (forgot to mention,it hasn't crashed not a single time since i have it).if you want a business phone with good camera and audio capabilities go for the n73.if you want a fun phone with great camera and good audio capabilities go for the k800.if you want a stiled phone that will always catch attention,that has a good price,good quality build,good display,and not forget to mention good camera(cause it's still among the best despite the lower quality - there aren't a many 3 mpix phones so be polite :) )

                    I have a Nokia N73 phone. I really enjoy the phone. I have been reading problems with lag, slow functions anf firmware issues. Funny thing is I dont have any of those problems. I have to suggest that the N73 owners have the phone checked if they are under warranty. Since the market for the device is too great, it wouldnt be rare to get these problems. I love the picture quality and the sound quality aswell. It is not actually appropriate to compare the N73 to the to the K800 because people see colors differently. I do admit that the Samsung is way off. I have used the K800 as well, and i like the colors as well, but other functions I want are in the N73. So if your concerned about the pics and the sound, just get the ones that are good to nice to your eyes and good to your ears. I believe our comments on the devices are bias to what we are using.

                      I work for o2 and from my experience the n73 is a very poor phone! it has great features but the sole purpose of a phone is to call people, the n73 cannot handle all the software put on it thus crashes alot more than any other phone on the market, i think to choose between the d900 and the k800 would have to be a preference in style as they are both great phones with wicked features i like both the phones and am yet to decide which phone i would like but definately not the n73! i dread to think of the lauch of the n95 but hopefully nokia will have got all the software aspects right this time!

                        the hell, the k800 colors are Off too, neither the n73 or k800 have natural colors, k800 colors are dull, and the n73 are bright, choose what you prefer. but in reality if far from them.

                          ok...K800i photos look more real becoz of it has the resolution with Cybershot while N73 has the resolution Carl Zeiss optics... the law is different... Carl zeiss optics obey the carl's law... while cybershot laws that is sharper image and color....

                              samsug d900 is the "Best GSM phone of 2007" even SE k790 cannot withstand D900 in the competition for non 3g phones. therefore in reality samsung features stands out comapred to Nokia and SE.

                                  just see the photos in big size so:
                                  k800i the best in natural photos
                                  n73 good because of some unnatural colors in some photos
                                  actually samsung can not be compared with se & nokia in other words samsung is already out.as aresult:
                                  1)sek800
                                  2)nokia n73

                                    Re: Slimest and lightest 3MP phone - D900, but not necessarily the best photo quality

                                    Without a doubt, N73 and SE K800 won the quality on photos as a heavier machine/phone(both around 115g). Whatelse can you expect to get on a much slimmer phone at only 85g as D900.

                                    Remember most want a smaller/lighter cell phone to carry in our pocket or suit/purse. Otherwise, simply get a 7.2MP digital camera for much less than the phone price.

                                    Therefore, I vote for D900 and I got one myself. I found it pretty cool to have :)

                                      well, from the samples... it seems... nokia pics are better looking in colours (if not natural). but they r overexposed at some places. Sony pics are dull but true and natural. samsung is crap! also sony is giving better detail... n73 becomes hazy at edges.

                                      so if i want d pics to look gud, as in fashion magazines etc... n73

                                      if im a nature lover and want to capture the scenic beauty around in true colours... k800

                                      Nokia is for office going ppl, Sony is for those who seek quality music and camera, nthing else! k800 sounds gud with walkman headsets...

                                        have you not get it? it is only samsung got the nicest picture taken by thier camera in real life without any extra feature on thier camera. You guys do not get it, do you? No one can compare to samsung even sony ericsson. End of story!!!
