mac, 03 Jun 2011hey guys pls help me out which phone nokia c7 or wave 2 is ... moreAdvantages of Wave 2
1) 1Ghz processor and Touch Wiz 3 interface makes it smooth.
2) Auto focus camera with touch focus, smile,blink detection and clarity is good.
3)Supports video formats like MKV,Avi and Divx etc.Just download, drag, drop and play no conversion required for upto 720p.
4)Battery is good it is 1500mAh lasts for more than 2 days on moderate usage.
5) Can upgrade to Bada2.0 which will be available by September. App store is growing.

Advantages of C7
1)Amoled screen , hence better contrast.
2)has USB on the go
3)Free navigation.

So if you travel a lot and need to know any location C7 is good. For good camera and playing movies and videos Wave 2 is the best.
One major drawback of C7 is Symbian is going to be stopped, Nokia is switching to Windows Os. So in future support or upgrades for C7 will reduce.
