        Thanks AC for the reply...

        So, Xperia X10/Motorola Droid/HTC Google Nexus One would be my only choice right?

        Thanks. :)

                    Nokia N8, Nokia N900?
                    Samsung Wave, Samsung Omnia II (i8000)?

                    HTC Google Nexus One?

                    I would like to request serious evaluation. I mean, I need serious help, I'm getting confused already.

                    HELP!!! Thank you in advance! God Bless you all. :)

                      As my personal experience, samsung phone cameras are better than any other manufacturers. Because other manufacturer like nokia and se just produces fake colours. They highlighted some colours only like green. My N95 can not take the red colour perfactly.
                      Samsung is camera manufacturer also. So they used samsung lenses in their cameras as well as in their phones. No need to buy lenses from other brand like carl zeiss as nokia.
                      Wave is a perfect phone. I prefer it more than N8. Coz it has a damn slow processor as compared to wave and not has the latest and greatest super amoled technology display. Wave has 3.3 inches display but better resolution and equipped with almost the all applications that we need.

                                Hey Mr Anonymous!
                                I'll agree with u that d wave is better off than d n8. Bt only in terms of processor nd speed. The wave havin an arm cortex 1ghz while n8 havin an arm 680mhz. Bt appart 4rm that the n8 is better off in other aspects. It has a 3.5 inch screen nd d wave has a 3.3inch.
                                The n8 uses 10.2mbps hsdpa nd 2.0mbps hsupa while the wave uses a 7.2mbps hsdpa nd a 2.0mbps hsupa. Nw thats b big difference.
                                And finally, my favourite, the wave has a 5mp camera with led flash while the n8 has a 12 mp camera with xenon flash. U should know what a xenon flash is, coupled with a 12 mp camera. Im nt on any side, bt by this comparism and others, u can judge clearly for urself.

                                    GVS, 07 May 2010NOKIA(Carl Zeiss) and SE camera's are the best;samsung came... moreHello,

                                    Just want to tell u one thing, believe it or not..

                                    U just cant say Samsung cams are always of low quality.

                                    There are phones from all major mobile companies that have good and bad cams irrespective of MP count, Carl Zeiss brand or whatever u call...

                                    Just for a small comparison, I used both Nokia N85 and Samsung Star.

                                    In case u don't know their cam specs:

                                    N85 --

                                    5 MP, 2592x1944 pixels, Carl Zeiss optics, autofocus, dual LED flash

                                    Star --

                                    3.15 MP, 2048x1536 pixels, No branded optics, fixed focus, no flash at all


                                    From the above specs and brand names you expect N85 takes better pics...isn't it??

                                    but for still images in daylight performance (overall image quality) of Samsung Star is better than N85..!!!

                                    Even I was surprised with those results..after seeing them with my own eyes

                                    I was just the same one like u, who never believed that any other mobile companies (except for Nokia & SE) can make quality products & specs.

                                    But Samsung Star has really changed my opinion after using it!!

                                    And one more thing several people (especially in India) blindly believe that only Nokia batterys' Stand-by, talk-time & lifespan are superior to the batteries of any other brand irrespective of software a mobile uses, it's load, and battery capacity itself.

                                    You know, Samsung star with Li-Ion 1000mAh battery gave me more stand-by than the Nokia N85's Li-Ion 1200mAh !!
                                    Of course, N85 has OS (Symbian) and star uses a simple Java platform, but Star has a bigger screen & pixel count than N85.

                                    So just don't take anything as it is .. try it yourself before passing comments on anything
