There are two options: One with Bose, and one with Sennheiser headphones.

N91 question:

If you're playing a music track, and a phone call comes through, does the track pause, and then resume after the call has ended?? I tried this with both N70 and N80, they can't manage it though; even my old K700 could do this....

The N91 is delicate, in that it uses a micro hard drive, meaning that if you drop it, you've probably destroyed the hard drive. The W900 on the other hand uses flash memory which is resistant to shock.

Yes, all new music phones have this feature.
@QVGA
As far as I know, The N91 (in Australia at least) comes in a package, and the heaphones are bundled with the phone. That's just what the mobique review said. I've yet to see a network sell the phone yet.

Does anyone know the size of the screen of W900? N91 has a 2.1inch display



SE W900i has 2.2" with 240*320 display
Nokia N91 has 2.1" with 176*202 display

while Nokia N91 has 4GB HDD build in but it is possible(in theory) to boost up W900i memory up to whopping ~4.5GB(Internal 0.5GB+4GB MSD)

And the cost of a 4GB memory card will make the price into a whopping amount aswell.

Yes that may be smart. but nokia has tested the n91 to be dropped at over 300 times and it was still functioning. the ipod mini got screwed after a mere 12 times. now will u ever drop ur n91 more than 20 times? i wonder? or else the person might be having butter fingers

But i still will stick to the w900 if i had to buy 1. I am brand loyal!!

Ive had both phones

W900i
Large Screen
Excellent user interface
Good Video Recording
Good Cam

N91
4GB Hard Drive
WLAN - Which im loving at the moment a lot....
Excellent Build
Excellent Sound Quality - Through Headphones

I always prefer the W900i over the N91.... But the WLAN... has been excellent part for me... it works very well.

I would recommend both phones.... It all depends what you are looking for in a phone that matters....

Both phones are similar in size... but the N91... has the premium feel to it due to the metalic finish it has... rather then the plastic look of the w900i

Hope this helps
Cheers
ENJOY

I don't think that that theory with the N91 is correct. It came from a Noia employee as well. If anyone has created a microdrive that durable, then wouldn't everyone be using it?

I think the W850 in black is better cause of it's size, the W900I is good but far to big and the N91 is better IMO (It's the only Nokia I like) but the N91 doesn't have a hardware 3D graphics chip does it?
Anyway you should be comparing the W950I with the N91.

N91 is bad regarding to graphic wise, but it has an excellent sound chip!
