That's great info. Dogmann
I currently have a P900 and am interested in the N93. Just a couple of questions if I may....
Where did you buy your N93, is it a 12 or 18 month contract, on which network? 
If you've done any web browsing, how have you found navigation without the wonderful P9xx touchscreen? In fact, how easy is the general usability of the N93 for entering text etc. without ezitap which I use a lot on my P900?
Thanks,
W. |

@ my-symbian you can see zoomed parts of p990 and n93 photos taken with same light conditions - and you can clearly see n93´s has much more noise than P990´s, no doubt about that...be it a good or a bad photo, n93 has more noise

Of which i dont doubt, as shown in the preview and comparison by gsmarena.
However, i dont think the extra noise is all that noticable unless you really study the images zoomed in, and i dont think it'll make much difference when the pictures are printed out on 6x4 or 7x5 glossy. Up to now, of the comparison pictures ive seen ive preferred the N93 images compared to the K800i's.

Hi waka,
I have pmd you with the details and it is a 12month contract.
As for web browsing i mainly use the phone in laptop/landscape mode by just twisting the flip over. This also avoids activating the camera, the Safari browser is excellent and the mini map works very well. Navigation is done by moving the pointer cursor via the D pad and clicking it is both easy and accurate and fast. Unbelievably i have found i am actually able to type reasonably quickly even with the keypad in this strange position. The keypad is both tactile and solid i love it. Viewing word documents in landscape is also very good and easy. I would say the lack of qwerty and touchscreen could be a problem if you input a lot of data. But my needs are diary, a little e-mail, and web browsing auto bookmarking means only having to enter a web address the once. You can always get a bluetooth keyboard for faster data entry and would be very good.

That's the same conclusion when participants were ask to rate photos in the mobile-review comparison.
% who thinks picture is the best:-
20% - K800
30% - N93
50% - N73. |

Did the people who rated them know which phone took which picture ??
Usually if they do, they give biased answers.

The voters has no prior knowledge which photos were taken by which phone. It is stated in the review. |

@ Dogmann - today, all the usual websites have revised their contract plans for the N93.
I cant get the phone for under £299 on even the most expensive contracts now. This is ridiculous ! its only £100 more for the phone sim free ! 
No way am i paying that much for the N93, id rather just buy a paltry K800i.

Hi all,
It seems by not hesiateing for once it paid off apperantlty on the 1st September all the prices changed as have the tariffs. I can only think as Vodafone are know giveing more miutes to the customer they are giveing less commision to the dealers and that is the reason for the sudden price rise.
Hi Boba the N73 is cheaper than a N93 at the moment, N73 is £250-£300, N93 £450+

Cheapest ive seen the N93 is now £210 on an O2 400 contract, which is still £50 more expensive than it first was when i intended to buy one, and on a slightly higher tarrif.
Im now considering buying the N73, and wait for the N83 - the rumoured to have 5mp camera and other cool features.
Boba - what makes you think the N73 would be dearer than the N93 ? its a lesser phone..
