Yes, the W995 does have a higher rating.

I like Sony Ericsson phones, but I think the i8910 (OMNIA) HD is better. Sure I don't need the Smartphone kind of features, but....I just like it more. HOWEVER, pricing will be a factor, as well as phone features.

Basically, both phones have their pros and cons, and I see these two phones as indirect competitors. I see the W995 as a music phone with C905 camera capabilities, while the i8910 HD is a smartphone with superb camera and video taking capabilities.

If you're talking raw then i8910 is leagues above W995. But the small aspects like ease of use and battery life are the things that kept us comin' back for more from .

That's people rating phones they haven't used themselves.

If you're keen on the camera then note how different GSMarena rated them:

W995
So what's up with the picture quality? Unlike the 8 megapixel Cyber-shot C905 - whose photos astonished us - the W995 suffers a similar problem to all other Walkman phones: the pictures are noisy and oversharpened, and the lively colors and contrast are gone. Another old friend makes an appearance here too - the purple fringing on the edge of buildings. Even the picture detail is less than on the C905.

But, hey, don't get too gloomy over this - the overall impression is good. The W995 camera catches the moment just as any Cyber-shot does. It has almost all of its features and the photo quality is reasonably satisfying. There is certainly work to be done on the image processing algorithm and we really hope this will happen before the phone is out on the market.


i8910
The image quality of the Samsung i8910 Omnia HD is pretty much as good as we have seen on a mobile phone. The color rendering is spot-on, contrast and dynamic range are also great. Fine detail is also very good although if anything could be improved - that's exactly it.

The best part about the camera is there are no visible defects of any kind. No traces of oversharpening, no lack of contrast and no excessive noise. Plus, getting the exposure right at all times makes sure most of the photos are keepers.


On the other hand, I don't think people buy Walkman phones for the camera. Still today you have to choose which function is most important to you: good camera OR good music player. You can't have both in a phone from .

The photo samples I've seen from the i8910 haven't impressed me by the slightests.

Nor have the ones from the W995, for that matter.
I'd say they're on par.
