Remember people the K850i GSMARENA were using was a Prototype 1 not the proper K850i that is going to be on Sale so the picture Quality isnt the proper 1 since its the Protoype K850i get it ????????
i like Both N95 and K850i but i like the K850i abit more !
the real Life K850i 1 that will be On sale the Camer will Perform Better !!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, maybe N95 is big as a brick, but isn´t much bigger than k850, and if you think on all the things that it has additionally vs k850 maybe you can understand why it´s bigger

i can't believe that the result is K850i:N95 = 31:34
anyway...i think the K850i is better than the N95

well, I only can say that nokia has made a great job on the development on their cameras. some steps ahead to n73 (the best nokia cameraphone before this) and now it performs better than k850i. I saw the competition very fair, but I really get impressed when I saw the veredict, because SE won the previous shootouts with previous phones (k800, k750, etc). About the looks k850i has a really shape of a digicam, but don´t performs very well. Only the xenon flash is a groundbreaker. But I can say that SE didn´t advanced a lot talking about the pic quality of k800i vs k850i. So this is a shame, more if Sony made cameras since so many years, and to get defeated by a brand like Nokia with only 5 years of doing cameras (less than a half of the time that Sony has making cameras). So for that reason, nokia deserves my respect, for the great development on the camera of its N95 vs a model like SE k850i that has all the support of Sony.
Personally I don´t like the Cybershots (I have an h5 and I think that I get the photos with excess of noise), I prefer Canon.
And to end, for the people complaining about (if the video didn´t count k850i would be better) I can say that the video is a very important thing in a camera phone and it´s fair to compare it too like the still picture capabilities. We´re not talking about SLR cameras that don´t have video recorder, we´re talking about phones xP

Wait till the Nokia N95 US version and N95 8GB version comes out. It will blow the K850 away. Both of the upcoming N95s will be much faster and the camera and its interface will be more responsive and real quick. Plus, I believe the N95 8GB will have Xenon flash but not sure.

Obviously n95 is the wise choice. It is also loaded with some other goodies like wifi where k850 simply lacks.
(Y) 2 thumbs up for u NOKIA (Y)

WiFi 802.11 b/g vs no WiFi
UPnP technology vs nothing
IR port vs NO IR port
Built in GPS & basic options for free no GPS
Symbian OS V9.2 vs no OS
TV out vs no TV out
3.5mm audio output jack vs No 3.5mm audio output jack

N95 is a great phone!! but i still preffer the K850... first because it's smaller, beautifull, have the functions that i need (not wi-fi, gps, OS, big screen) these thinks (for me) only sucks battery and performance...
and for last... like 80% the pictures i take it's is low light (nightclubs, pubs, etc...) so a xenon flash is everything to me..

hi all,
dis is ma 1st time to post on this site, ive been checkin dis site for ages, im totally a SE diehard kinda fan, ive used almost each and every model of SE. and there was no match at all for all SE phones with ne other nokia. it all happened when last christmas i bought a w950i , dat phone dissapointed me i switched to p990i within a week after 1 month i lost it and dan i accidently bought a n73 which im still usin it. well n73 was beyond my expectation, dat phone is a one good phone ever made by nokia. now im waitin for SE to launch ne good phone so dat i could switch back to SE. its so dissapointin 4 me not to have a good phone by them...PLz SE make sum good phone....

Without video recording, SE wins 30-29
I think in outdoor test, the editor's not fair.
The Nokia phone get wrong colors & loose details, you can see this pic:

all the persons who wrote comments on both modles forgot 1 thing in sony ericson that this is the first 5mp cybershot phone with megabass,and all remaining features beats nokia n95...
motion sensor (with ui auto-rotate),
xenon flash and 3led video light,
memory card combo slot (m2/microsd)
pictbridge
bestpic™
photo fix
automatic postcard creation
slideshow w music
pocket album – thumbnail
fast scroll
intelligent photo browsing
k850 with much better battery life
and the most important thing to gsmarena owners that there are still few more phones to come in 5 mp batle,like samsung,lg,motorola.etc so this is not the compition between nokia and sony this is compition between 5mp.
and all the persons read this carefully that nokia n95 is not the winner because sony ericson k850 not yet released still under processing.i dont know from where they have taken these photos.wait till k850 comes out and then see who is the winner..

I think in SE still better in capturing still image, it loose only in video recording. anyway, the SE phone is cheaper.
