N80 is a Symbian OS Smartphone...tons of apps, games..open OS...WLAN...almost a handheld PC

 

K800 is a souped up K750i "dumb" phone...but with much powerful cam and hi-fi stereo sound in which SE Phones are known

They are in the same category for comparison

 

In terms of overall use and functionality N80 waylays K800i (winning even in video capture)

 

The K800i only wins in terms of camera, battery life, sound output and aesthetics

 

N80 walks.. while K800i runs by a mile... :)

Typical firmware bugs...better ask when will the firmware updates from the NCC...these are the usual problems of new release mobiles

 

read an email regarding N80i...

WARNING: This is based on my personal experience and may not be the same case to others, however i hope this would serve as a warning/guide to those who want to buy nokia N80.

 

Last June 18 i bought a NOKIA N80 and a Nokia N70 at the Gadget Madness in Glorietta. On the following day i started exploring the N80 cellphone. At first the unit seem to be fine. I started using the camera and took a video of my son playing basketball. I put the camera on normal mode (3GP) and the video seem pixelated. I thought it was just normal coz it is only on 3GP mode (i never used the HIGH video setting (MP4) then coz of the big file size). The i started using the N70 unit. And taken a video also on the 3gp or normal setting. It was then i noticed the big difference, considering the N80 was supposed to have a 3 Megapixel camera compared to the N70 which only have 2 megapix camera. I took a video then side by side, on same location, same duration, same lighting condition and same setting now on HIGH (MP4) setting to see if there would really be a significant difference. On my dismay, the N70 had a better, clearer video. I returned the unit to nokia care in glorietta. The diagnosis was there was AN INTERMITTENT BLURRED during zooming. they recommended that said unit be returned to the supplier coz there was NO AVAILABLE PART for the CAMERA. I then tried buying on some other stores (coz the Accent Micro store where i bought the unit said they dont have a stock which i need to wait) so instead i requested a refund. I looked for another N80 on a different store (i tried 4 stores Ambassador, Hello, cant remember the 2) coz NOKIA has no stock. All units i tested manifested same problem...BLURRED VIDEO. The still shot however was OK. Now i ended up buying N91.

 

So for those who want to buy N80, better bring along a cel wid 2Megapix camera, so u can directly compare the video side by side before u pay, coz once u paid up, u cant directly return the product, they will refer u to NOKIA care coz it will fall under the 1 Yr WARRANTY. Mahirap mag ubos ng oras 4hrs ubusin mo dun. Maliban dun me iba pang problem (MMC door BUMUBUKAS PAG SINARA, phone hangs pag install mo ng applications - well on my case)

 

Sana makatulong to na guide, akala kasi ng iba they are buying a cell wid CLEARER CAMERA coz its 3MEGAPIX nga. Tapos will end up mas pangit pa."

its like this.. if I want a (handheld) PC,

id get a 'REAL' notebook PC..

 

but for a phone to be a do-it-all-have-it-all device..

it surely is very inconvenient to have its battery run out during mid-day..

also mobile devices should be able to last the whole day while using

the features you bought that thing for.. like say.. MP3 player, camera, PDA-functions..

so if your excuse is that it has all these type of applications/functionality and you

can't "USE" it within the day then...you just bought yourself an overpriced gadget..

point taken, its just that the N80 has more to offer than the K800i for now

 

but if its "purely" a mobile phone with superior sound, camera and build...its SE no doubt

I just got my hands on the new Sony Ericsson K800i.

 

The digital camera is great and by far the best quality of any digital camera/phone due to it's 3.2 MP.

 

It has some really cool features which I'm still testing out but like the like fact that you can publish your photos to you online blog online.

 

I'll give a more details once i have tested more of the features.

 

Cheers

It really depends on what your needs are. Do you like "tons of apps" and games on your phone? I would suggest you get an S60 nokia. You can read ebooks, play nice games, and even view and EDIT word/excel files on a nokia. ( I have an app on my S60 nokia that changes the profile of the phone-from general to silent and vise versa at certain times of the day(so i won't be disturbed while resting)).

 

However if you only need (want) basic phone functions plus a great camera/mp3 player etc... I would suggest you get an SE phone.

 

Forgive me, but coming from an ex-xda2/mini owner. i find the nokia (S60 series) better buys than SE phones.

 

PS i'm using a N70 now.
