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.

          I think the n73 is better, because it has os symbian app`s. i prefer the sony ericsson because i`m used to it, but os symbian app`s is in another level.

            I bought and sold it for half the price after 1 week of using N73 and bought SE-K810 WHY?
            1. N73 iss Series 60 which is slow SE-K810 is quick
            2. N73 got big speakers but has no quality SE-K810 is WOW
            3. N73 and K810 has 3.2 MP camera although N73 has Carl Zeiss optics even than K810 has far more better quality pictures, y? because Nokia uses more compression which results in poor quality output
            4. N73 has a poor layout of keypad making it difficult to type, K810 has prominant buttons, one can type without even looking at it.
            5. N73 multifunction/multitasking option fails to trap music player well K810 no complains.
            6. N73 series 60 doesn't allow user with the recent contact access while messaging, user has to scroll the addressbook to find sender in case of frequent SMS to same contact well SE is smart.
            7. N73 big screen it very impressive but very fragile too so handle with CARE but with K810 have fun boys.
            8. N73 has poor built quality SE is very good.

            You can buy N73 but you will get bored evantually

                  i didnt mean to argue because 3 phone are great. but strange, when i use my n73 compare with my friends k800, the result is my n73 are better. except at night, n73 is really weak on that moment. Other then camera quality, i think n73 is champion, no lie, cause N73 phone feature are almost same as N95, its only without WIFI, and it has a nice stereo speaker, which is louder then k800 and n95, it has GPS, google maps, and also the a2dp where available in new firmware, and who say the battery is weak? r u nuts?? with its advance function the standby time goes for 350hour, can u believe that? same as k800 but more advance then k800....so i think overall n73 is my best choice

                    K800i rules: wonderful macro photos, the best photos in low light conditions.

                        N73 is the best.. I bought this phone few weeks back , and I am happy with the performance .. it has an awesome camera and a good stereo , although the volume on the headfones in not that high .. but the quality is good. I am satisfied with the battery and speed of the phone. Best feature of this phone is the clarity as compared to other nokia phones.

                            I'm using K800i and i know it's the best when it comes to pictures. They did'nt just call it cyber shorts. N73 it's also a good phone but you can't just compare the two.

                                  Hi guyz, just bought a Nokia N73 ME and found out its superb steroe speakers but the 3.2MP Carl zeiss camera is also superb. So, if u all want a phone with good music and camera i reckon this phone but uif u emphasize on having a camera phone, then just get the Sony Ericsson K800i or K810i because its clear tht the Nokia has better functions and its Symbian.

                                    first of all i have to say that its great to have camphones like these. i do have the two phones, k800i and n73ME. both have unique qualities installed, stereo, mp3, camera, etc. The best thing about n73ME is it's stereo. The sound si really clear and very much likely better than of K800i. There are lots of stuffs and applications that you can use in the carl zeis camera. For k800i, the sound is not as loud as n73ME since there is no mega bass for sure and that there is no 3D effects. There are more applications in nokia rather that K800i plus its 2G free memory stick. For me to choose between both is a hard one but i have to say i prefer K800i than n73ME. K800i's camera is far better that of nokia's. It is superb i tell you. Xenon lense is very good. Even if you compare it to N95(which i also do have) is just similar to it's 5 mega pixel cam. As you all know, if we are all speaking of cybershot, it is for the digi cam. Wow, i do have a digital cam installed already in my K800i. The images are really real, full of life. For sound quality, i dont get bothered since K800i's effect is still very good (n73ME is much better hehe). Video is a lot faster and is very nice. To tell you more about the comparisons, check this one out.

                                    memory card:
                                    the same

                                    keypad:
                                    depends on you

                                    joystick:
                                    both have it

                                    user friendly:
                                    both are user friendly

                                    umm, i forgot to mention, k800i is clearer than the 2. n73 is much brighter. the essence of the picture is lost since it is not showing its true colors because of the way carl zeis lense projects, giving more light to the picture which is makes it look "over" for that certain image .k800i is better indoor, outdoor, night or day. so k800i is still the best.

                                    so you guys who want to buy a new phone, i strongly suggest that you choose k800i. same price as of nokia but much expensive than samsung. but if you want the more sophisticated one, k810i is the best for you. slick design, lighter, cooler etc. it's loaded baby!

                                    for all you buyers, a food for though:
                                    "SE prices depreciates slower than of Nokia."

                                        Comparing Nokia phones with LG,Sony Ericsson is not worth it,even if they have the same features,N O K I A will always be nokia.Samsung is the only contender of nokia in the GSM market,n73 is the best among the three.
