The advantages mentioned of K800 are really really weak. The thing is that N73 is the better phone, say what you might, it still wont change the fact. N73 is a high-end phone where as K800 is a mid-range phone. N73 has a bigger, better screen which is a vital part of the phone.
As for the sluggish symbian, dont just say something if u havnt used it. My N71 with the same sybmian is really really fast with a bucket load of stuff installed in it.

I recommend K800/790. A Real Phone! What a voice and receiption. A good camera. Nice compact solid. Lovely rubber keyboard. N73's keyboard is hard!

Well as I said, I sold my N93 because the images were so poor amongst other things, this K800 is FANTASTIC for images, even if some other things like browsing can be worse - for me however I don't care I want a v good camera, and phone calls and texts. Ask yourself if you want to take good pohotos and go for the match.

Oh the screen resolution is actually the same, the N73 just has bigger pixels.

Why don't you go to a phone shop and look at both? I regretted not trying the N93 out for 20 miinutes first!!


(PS I tried taking photos inside in pitch black last night, they came out perfectly as well)

@most , this looks like a real debate with nokia followers and followers , each saying how good the one and how bad the other . i know both have strong and bad points , but it still a decision the end user as the make which he will use or like .

@ leo_asb , it seems you made you decision with naming the best features off the nokia , but remember it still depends on what you want from a phone .
and last but not the least i got to say , do you want to use something youre all little used to ( K750 ) or wanna try something new .


just my 2 cents.

The debate gets started when someone pops in and posts something stupid like "Get the K800!!!!"

Well before you decide on what phone to buy I have a little bit of info for you.

Orange and T-Mobile have stopped selling the Nokia N80 due to major problems with the phone. Orange have stopped all the selling of the Nokia N80 and have removed it from here own website. Orange will now wait for the Nokia N80 Release 2 which is due in a couple of months.

Orange, T-Mobile, 02 are currenlty not selling the Nokia N91 (Orange and T-mobile) have said they will never sell it due to problems.

Orange have also delayed there release of the Nokia N73 due to major problems with the phone, The stock has been sent back to Nokia where new software will be needed to fix the faults. Other Networks are stocking up with the N73, but I dont beleive its flying of the shelf.

Ive had a Nokia N80, Hated it, too slow, battery life poor, phone isnt brilliant and camera poor for my liking.

I have had mixed reviews for the Nokia N73. Not good for Texting as keys too small, Phone slow, Nice Screen, Ok Camera (not as good as SE) Battery better.

Nokia N91, Great music phone, Whey too heavy, fiddley keys, too expensive.

Sorry but this is not what you will want to hear. But i hope it will help making your mind up.

Also keep in mind SE is a small company. Depending on your location you may buy the cell and sit with it if you like it or not. Nokia on the other hand is at the top. If you don't come right there chances are you won't come right anywhere ! In my small town to buy anything als but Nokia is a risk.

thanks very much guys for your opinions!

in my part, i like to have a nokia phone coz it's been a very long time since i owned one.

most of my phones are Sony Ericsson - from T68i til my present K750i.

but you'll never know.. people change.. hehehe...

i'm very confused now..

guess i'll have to take a closer look on both models and then decide.

hehehe...

K800 definately. It is much better than that nokia, by my opinion. SE phones are much easier to use and even more practical than the nokias. However nokia are symbian phones, but compared to the overall options they have they're almost the same.

I mean, easy to use. The nokias look little hard to use for me. It's options are reachable in no time and it is there everytime you need it.
