Never tried an N70, but the W810i has a better camera (has autofocus and a macro mode), better music player I believe, and more compact.

However, the N70 is a smartphone, so much more adaptable, there's a range of Symbian software out there, both free and ones you have to pay for.

Again, depends on your usage of the phone, if you want a good music player and a great camera, go for it. If you're going to be playing with different apps and want the adaptability and usefulness of a smartphone, go for the N70

W810 I think is better than N70 if you want the phone for music. Mainly it is better at all. The only thing that is good in N70 is the Symbian OS. Other features are the same or lower performance. The W810 has greater options than the N70.

Get the N70. It can keep you intereseted for a long time as you can have great fun finding and trying out the many thousand of great quality apps and games.

W810 may look may be fun to look at initially but after a week or two, it will become boring because you would have explored everything about the phone. And then there is nothing.

I think the W810 is better but I hate the casing, the N70 software is quite impressive, BUT the 2 MP camera is rubbish and hands down the K750i/w800i camera is much better and also its quite chunky and the buttons are way to small to use, as my hands are quite big.

In my opinion if you really want to buy a good mobile, the best phones out on the market are LG ones, only downside is the price.. :S

For your kind information, N70 has the BEST, and I really mean the BEST non-autofocus 2MP camera out there. Just look at the sample pics, then throw comments.
Also, care to explain what makes LG better than SE, Nokia, Samsung and Moto?

@QVGA sorry to say but I have used over 15 different mobiles out on the Uk/Japanese market and in this country the K750i has the best 2 MP camera, the only downside is that you have to buy a flash addon and can only use the flash when the background lighting is reduced.

Check out the photos I took for my portfolio

And in my opinion anyway and many other professional photographers, we say, "If you are a true photographer, you can use apsolutely ANY camera and still get good results, whether it be a shitty mobile cam or a professional SLR camera".

Oh yeah I forgot to tell you it's LG models like these which the UK will get to start enjoying.. I went to a mobile convention and spoke to the designer @ LG and let's just say im a tech freak. Trust me LG will explode on to the market and already in Asia LG are one of the biggest brands out, not just mobiles phones, but TVs, Plasma, Fridges, Walkmans, Cars, Cameras, Computers and many more... its just rediculous the stuff they come up with and unfortunatly when this kind of stuff gets released on the European market it will be WAY WAY WAY over priced.. im talking like £500-£700 on a mobile phone/mp3 player/gaming system/TV

Check out the KG920, one of the models I tested.

In my opinion the product designer for LG mobiles sucks.. most of all the new phones look like chunky heavy metal cameras which will stick out of ur pocket, instead of a nice smooth ergonomic peice of gadgetry.
