n95 is really expensive compared to k850. but if i were to compare i think... they're almost the same what can i say? i'm starting to like the k850 bec of its camera... i have to commend it... it's really awesome... so clear. fantastic. k850 beats n95 when it comes to pricing "money wise" and camera resolution. what i really hate about nseries is that the folders on the gallery. everything is just messed up... even if i organize my pics in my computer, when i insert in back again to my phone the folder does appear... instead everything's just out... u know what i mean. i what everything to be organized when it comes to my phone... i love nokia phones coz they're really easy to use... but i'm starting to hate nseries... =(

        walkmans need adapters...

        n95 won gsmarena test (not a cameraphone)

        my n95 totally stable on v.21...

        i yi yi, its hard isnt it.


        i would actually like to propose that the average k850 locks up more frequently than my n95

          Well im back in this forum after like 1 Week.....

          not much has changed its all the same blah blah blah blah from Nokia fans

          look !!!!!!!!

          K850i won the 5MP Test, just like K800i won it in the 3MP test and before they did with the K750i in the 2MP test...


          SE always WINS!

          same with Music Phones.

          Walkman Phones have Better Quality and Sound Quality

          right from the start since W800i, Walkman Phones are Quality! all of them

          once again...

          SE always WINS!!

          features in the N95 are useless for me and SE Owners, packing all those features into a Phone is just i agree its Good, but the phone cant handle it all lol....

          Symbian + Wi-Fi + GPS = ???? why???

          Symbian = nahhh Boring
          Wi-Fi = Display is to small !
          GPS = ^^^ same display to small

          and N82 HASNT won againt K850i in the camera Tests.

          SE WON!!!!!! haha

          SE Rules, SE's the Best
          Hope they reach number 1 one day...

            sony erricson were so impressed with the k850 that the sample shots on their website were taken with one of their proper digital cameras...

            oh dear...

                The following is the review of CNet on K850..

                So should you go out and buy the K850i now? Like we mentioned earlier, the N95 has the early market advantage of getting into the consumer hands. Prices would have been different now compared with the time it was just launched. In fact, it's been so long that the K850i now has two N95s to contend with: The earlier N95 and the N95 (8GB) which was released at the same time as the K850i.

                In terms of overall features, the N95 trumps the K850i on the merit of its built-in GPS chip alone. But from a camera-phone perspective, the K850i is perhaps the best we've handled so far. That said, for most people we reckon it'd still be a very tough decision between the N95 and the K850i. Both devices have their merit and each does some things better than the other. So before laying down S$898 (US$590.79) for the Japanese-Swedish's flagship device, it would be a good idea to play around with both phones in shops first before making the decision

                    I Like it, but sometimes, it keeps slowing down, and some ohter times, it just stop. I don't know what to do. Someone can just mail me, with an answer? Or some software to help it?

                          This is by far the most exciting forum on this site.
                          Please, keep arguing about Nokia vs SE it makes my day to read everyones comment.

                          But I must say, I know people who own this phone and they do say the touchscreen is really bad and freezes or stops working after a while. Xperia better be made better... Cos it seems SE kind of failed with this touch screen.

                            i think the k-foil's usefulness is good for only 3months!!ive read all ur comments and its the same as mine!3months then it goes dead!!

                            i love this fone..but i just cant get the FACT that the touch screen is very annoying!at it goes dead after 3months!!all those potential!what a waste!kaya sa mga pilipinong bbili ng k850!think twice!
                            the best ang SEk850 for 3months!then its useless!ryt now im using a nokia 1100 for my txting needs..but for my camra needs i use my k8!(useless!waste of 24k!!)

                              nice phone,I'm looking forward to buy it.
                              And for people who looking all in one phone, you not gonna get it from SE. cybershot for camera and wlakman for music. better camcorder in cellphone? a handycam line? or maybe VAIO line in SE then you'll have it all.. but it's all about bussiness for SE and it's gonna be about all feature that you can use for you.

                              currently own : SE K800i,K610i,W800,W850i,W950i,P990i and Motorola ROKR E6
                              BTW NOKIA sucks!!!

                                the SE shop here in the philippines(rob place& glorietta) told me to replace its K-FOIL;which i think is the 3 dots in the screen..and they said the warranty is only 3months!after dat wat?it gets malfunctioning again!?

                                the SE shop in glorietta(a mall here in the philippiness) said the K-FOIL cost P1100!!which is a BIG price to pay!ive only used my fone for only 3months!!i thought it WAS THE MOST POWERFULL FONE in the PLANET!!but now its just a DISPLAY TOY in my room!!VERY DISAPPOINTED!k850 when i bought is was P24,500!!

                                      i've experience having this unit for three months. i really fell in love with the unit but why all of a sudden my phone doesn't work! the touch screen is not working and now it is giving me headache because technicians in my place dont know what to do with it in order to make it function again. I've invested too much on this and I would appreciate it much if you could help me fix this problem im presently encountering.
