Vote and post ur opinions for your favorite 5 mega-pixel camera-phone, :
C901 -
PROS: Big baddy of camera phones, slim design similiar to C902 but it has a xenon flash along with autofocus, smile detection and the list goes on........ No annoying touch buttons like its relatives and also has a crystal hard screen covering which prevents any scratching of the screen, if i saw this phone in town i would kiss it on the screen, turn it on vibrate, shuv it down my pants and run away, im sure ud do the same.
CONS: Not out in uk yet though will be in a month or two. No drivers avaliable for this phone so you cant upgrade the camera, (dunno why you wud) plus SE are selling the c901 and the c901 "greenheart" i mean who cares about being enviro friendly? It comes in the bad colour too , the silver version. Stupid SE shud just release 1 version of 1 phone
Elm -
PROS: Cheap, similar to C901, good camera in daylight
CONS: No xenon flash,
K850i -
PROS: Good looking phone (when it hasnt been touched) Very good camera, also with plenty of camera drivers on the web offering brilliant picture quality. Perhaps with the latest drivers the k850i could beat all the competetion? It depends on whether you can sacrfice annoying ergonomics for the exceptional camera. BIG screen which provides good display along with camera dedicated buttons on the side of the phone.
CONS: Annoying slow responce touch buttons, Bad design of D-pad in the middle of keypad requiring tiny fingers to text or enter a number, its a fingerprint magnet - greasy within 2 minutes of use , annoying position of flash so you have to precariously hold it by the edges when flash is in use (less control of phone) BATTERY LIFE! Because of that huge screen the phone gulps up all the battery's life within less than 2 days. Doesn't have smile detection feature on phone.
C902 -
PROS: Slim, stylish design whilst still feeling well built and compact. Smaller scren increses the battery life, dedicated camera touch buttons that are easy to use and good keypad design. Also has a super-cool slide cover for the camera!
CONS: Annoying small screen and with a lack of xenon flash! Oh the Injustice!!
N95 -
PROS: comes with all the camera features on offer on the other phones, inlcuding xenon flash and autofocus.
CONS: Well, its a nokia...

C901
PROS:
+ You can turn off shutter sound from menu!
+ BestPic can save all pictures in one touch and in addition it saves first captured automatically
CONS: IMO, flash based menu is a bit slowly (navigating thru items in list menu
Xenon flash eating whole picture in macro mode

I own the K850, C901 & C902 (also have the C905 but thats an 8mp cam) and have used them constantly until the next was released (currently the C901) and my choice is the:-
C901
Not just the amount of camera features, excellent battery life, slim design, xenon flash etc
Its the only
phone I've used lately that actually has an excellent keypad for navigating, typing etc. Last one that even came close to a decent useable keypad for me was the K800.

K850i doesnt really take great pics compared to most of the big boys anymore
get more disappointed with its performance as a cam everytime i look at the competition
strangely i love the touch buttons, its a great phone, just a pants camera lol
Posted by mriley
IMO, sony ericsson are going crazy. before the release of the k850i every1 was expecting it to be the best camera-phone ever... but as it turned out in all of the reviews the problems users were facing was the camera - epic fail there. Now this phone has been released sony ericsson states that its only going to be avaliable in "certain markets" then it turns out that this phone is much better than any of its close relatives receiving excellent reviews everywhere...it seems for SE theres more hype for the shit (more expensive) phones and less for the (cheapish) amazing ones, suprise suprise they just want ur money!

K850i should have been a great phone, was their flagship, 1st 5mp cam but it had lots of problems, like most ive had to send mine back for repair for BROD, even now i never know if today will be the day it stops working.
We paid a lot of money and where dumped by SE when it flopped.
Have looked at new models but they too have their fair share of problems.
w995 not so great in the cam department.
Aino looks good but no zennon so a no no, Satio is the one to watch but that not getting good reviews either.
Cant stand the OS of Nokia after using SE, just want a reliable phone with good cam
Why do SE phones have the horrible white washed out images? is it the sensor, horrible, like a haze on the pics
have tried the modded cams and still no real good pics
cant comment on the c901,2 3 as never had them to compare

loads of c901 sample pics on this link, prepare to be impressed xD :

K850 but with modified camdrive. Had it and I was satisfied.
Posted by code28h4p
C901. Just with stock camdriver, it could compete with K850i+mod camdriver. Lol

are there any modded cam drivers avaliable for c901 yet?
Posted by code28h4p
@mriley
it was available...but still simple mod camdriver. It was Cyloh camdriver (just search here) and mine (just for personal use yet)
Posted by volume100
C901 all the way
Has everything that a K850 has and it all works
I think there already was a topic for C902 vs C901 and C901 won it

^^ awful yellow tint
my vote for C901
Posted by code28h4p
Even master raider vote for C901. But...in fact, K850i has a better xenon power rather than C901.

hehehe i vote 3 phones

only otherwise I can say something good about Nokia and Moto

@master raiderski
how to reupdate c902
because in the Seus there is no reinstall
but in my k750i
theres a reinstall
what would i do so i can reinstall the c902
Posted by volume100
Try doing it manually via A2uploader.

how can you teach me
Posted by jj03
i'd take the n82 anyday of the week over the c901 / k850i. hardly surprising there's no vote for nokia on a se forum. The se could have the worst camera in the world and it would still get voted as 'best camera' from certain div's on this forum. such is their sheer stupidity.
Posted by Raiderski
I'm sure that everybody loves K850/C90x on Nokia fan sites... I'm sure...
shame on you SE world!

nah, the c902 camera phone hasnt got the best camera when u look at comparison shots between them both... i think the c901 beats it anyday xD + this isnt just about camera capabilities and although the c902 is well built, it has that annoying little screen and we hate all touch buttons by

I agree but when u see pics such as these , flash vs no flash u see that u can't really criticize it for having a weaker flash, its a smaller phone than the k850i, which on many reviews the users have complained about the xenon flash... heres an example http://www.mobile-phones-uk.org.uk/sony-ericsson-k850i.htm

@mriley
Sure i love my C901 and its flash. FYI, my father use K850i as his phone, and i always compare between those phone. Everything just fine but C901's xenon flash couldn't beat up my father K850's xenon flash. LOL

Thx, its not suprising the flash is more powerful on the k850i, but personally I think its just too bulky and hard to use
i end up with bloody fingertips..
i think u shud post sum comparisons between them both, wud be interesting to see results under same conditions, does the k850i have new cam driver installed or original?
Posted by code28h4p
it was modded..no standard phone in our home...
sample pic from C901 with document mode+RER Flash (is it washout or normal?)
Posted by wlagalvez
However, I am little dissapointed with K850i because I thought I will get a better camera. Anyway, as long I have tested only the k850i, for now I will vote for that one.
Posted by sale987
I have had the k850, and i was not satisfied with it, but now when i saw pics of c901, for me C901 is definitely winner...
Posted by tarete
lol... k850 ITS THE BEST!
XENON flash FTW!

C901 All the way, I gotta tell this even though I have a C902
Posted by ceaser2008
I havenot used any other 5 MP phone but i am fully satisfied with my K850i. My vote for K850i for powerful xenon, powerful led, very decent photo quality.
Posted by bluechip
Me myself have been collecting SEs for long time....
from k750i to C905, i have k750, k810, k850, C905.
As for the 5 Mp i love my k850i, and only use it often... love its touch buttons, and the extent to which
it can be modded... The first releases of it was slow... but u don't feel that much slow response as stated above, if
upgraded to the latest firmware.. also can compete the best with latest modded drivers...
And regarding face detection and smile shutter function....., who is actually using all these....?
I truly vote for k850i....
Posted by domipost
Hmm, I'll do a comparision between my C901 and K850 before I decide. Will post some pics shortly
Definately I'll take one of those two. N95 sucks at user experience and while I don't have (and haven't used) C902 I haven't heard exactly good things on the cam...
btw
plus SE are selling the c901 and the c901 "greenheart" i mean who cares about being enviro friendly? It comes in the bad colour too , the silver version. Stupid SE shud just release 1 version of 1 phone
Don't see what your problem is there
Sure most phone freaks don't care about the environment (which everyone should actually DO, imo) but some regular customers do. And even if nobody would, I don't see why that is a negative point for the phone :S Think the GreenHeart Ocean White colour (which is different from the silver) is the best btw
Looks more classy than the others
Posted by mrjulius
how about c902
Posted by myomyo2
I think that K850i is better than other 5MP Phone. But C901 quality is also good because it is using Samsung lens.
