LG KG920 vs. SE K800 vs. Nokia N73: One more photo shootout

31 January 2007
Recently we've got LG K920 for testing; this is one of the first 5MP camera GSM phones available on the market. We've decided that it's a good idea to test it against one of the best currently available 3MP camera phones, and also great rivals - Sony Ericsson K800 and Nokia N73.

Hi I'm from Dhaka(Bangladesh). I used SAMSUNG G600,SE K800 and Nokia N73ME.G600 is the worst.u get all blurry picture but still object picture r good,as a whole bad invest. Sony ericsson K800i is a good fone but bad to say that n73 picture r much clear than k800i, but k800 autofocus works fast.The best all time picture is from N73 albeit. But i'm a hard fan of Sony Ericsson for their userfriendly interface.General comment-SE is best for Mp3quality even a k series sound better than other brands music fone!!Nokia N series uses Carl-zeiss lense so picture is far better than cybershot.Nokia a bit complicated interface but if u like symbian no alternative of Nokia.Nokia good in picture but average in Music , SE good for music but average for picture, SAMSUNG no good!!!Mail me if any q: rabiulis@gmail.com

              I am a great fan of photography and i currently own a samsung g600.I read the shoot out b/w the three phones.I really liked d images of kg920,but leave it coz 3mp is different frm 5 mp.So i recommend not 2 compare lg with a class of its own.My focus is on the other two se and nokia.I really feel that if u want an alround perfomance along with a great camera,u have 2 go for 73 as it offers great functionality that se doesn't offer.But if u r really concerned abt photography and editing images,i recommend u se.

              By the way,samsung g600 is also an excellent camera phone for its price range.

                  i brought my SE k800i phone here in the Philippines it just cost P8290 or $188 with 30 days warranty only ( if with 1 year warranty $220 ).. i guess with my experienced SE far exceeds other 3MP nokia phones. frankly, nokia is common and its a bit redundant in its designs and display themes. i have read in a study that Nokia puts "color" overly saturated thus making the image more appealing to the user but in photography experts overly saturated photos is a "NO NO" unlike with SE, colors are in natural even in total darkness with its bright xenon flash like any other digicam would suggest. SE have more innovations and the cybershot image looks so amazing like any other sony digital camera products. Well sony have been known for its tough and reliable technology innovations as well as ericsson in networking business.. A better fusion of two great big companies. Nokia only conceived people and the expensive price is not paid back afterall.

                            I prefer N73, for ocasionally shooting photos works great but if you want to take Photograps then go and buy digital camera, there's no sence in saying that this one is cool and this is bad, their lenses and optics will never match a real 3.2mpx camera so yah.

                            My N73 fell downstairs so many times and works without problems but K800 fell down from my cars window and went totaled :/

                            The K800 sound quality is better but N73 is louder, I doubt you'll listen to music from your phone in home but ocasionally with your friends while in the city or drinking beer, as the natural ambient destroys the sound from both of them, the N73 wins with louder speaker also during breaks in school.

                            K800 themes wins, no doubt, N73 looks all the same (or similar) as all other symbian phones, so typical...

                            I like N73 screen more than K800

                            I don't really know, I always liked "feeling" the phones, heavy and big, makes you feel that you really have a piece of hardware in your hand, K800 looks so massive and great :P I wish I had N73 phone in K800 design, neh

                            sorry for my english, I'm not a native speaker

                                      Just ordered the K800i. While my opinion is biased since i don't like Nokia phones, i must say, after chatting to people with the N series phones and the SE K800i.

                                      The video cam on the SE is not so good as the N series and the N series has louder sound.

                                      Apart from that - SE holds up and beats the N series.

                                      This is my first SE - and its great!
