Both fitted with 3.2 Megapixel cameras and autofocus, Nokia's N93 and Sony Ericsson K800i look fairly similar with regard to their main attributes but there are a number of small differences which set the two apart.

only one will emerge victorious...Guess which one?

seriously i prefer the Tumbnails view from the N93 anyway, K800 still the winner for the picture quality

EDIT: opps.. just finish reading the result.. cant believe N93 wins sad though

Well the N93 wins, only marginally, and it can't justify it's extra cost with much in the photo department. Still, interesting findings, as in the gsmarena comparisons, the K800 beats the N93, and fairly convincingly.

Don't forget that that the N93 is huge in size...its just too big and bulky..and not particularly pleasing to the eye either. [addsig]

The price for N93 is completely justified. And we should accept that it just beats the K800 hands down. I mean, has anyone ever not bought a phone because of its size?

n93 wins IMO hands down ....

if you make a movie with the n93 and send it to the k800 it won't be able to open it

the 2gb mini-sd that equips the n93 costs around 80 euros and the 1gb m2 costs a stagering 60euro ... omfg

the n93 comes along with cables to conect the phone up to your tv ... thus you can see movies made by you or even 2 full lenght movies (thats how much the batery lasts ... haven't pushed it to the limit)

with the macro mode that the n93 has you can snap a picture right away (the k800 has trubles with the AF )

and the biggest loss of the k800 is NO WI-FI or a good internet browser ... the internet browser that the n93 comes with is superb ... just as looking at a page from your pc (just smaller)

on this one i go with nokia ....

BTW ppl the n93 doesn't look that big only if you open it conventionaly ... in 90% of the time you open it sideways and it looks pretty fashionable (unique)

this is how the browser looks (you also have a maximize page ability that alows you to scrol thru the page faster and zoom in where you want... this position is very confortable for scroling thru pages

People seem to like the addition of an optical zoom but imo it makes the phone too big if I need a picture using optical zoom i'll use a proper camera!!!

Personally I want a nice size phone (not too heavy either) that takes a respectable picture at the moment its got to be k800 or n73!!
