------------------------------------------------------------
Camera

Sony Ericsson Satio
Satio performs the best pictures we've seen from a camera phone(woaah ). Images are sharp when looking at actual size and in spite of the large sensor to 12 megapixels, the less problems with noise and ugly effects of noise reduction than we expected. Although flash pictures are good. In addition, the camera is pretty fast, both in getting started, the impression and image, and be ready to take a new picture.

Nokia N86 8MP
Nokia N86 with its 8 megapixel clearly takes great pictures. Often, good balance, it is seldom that utfrtta parties even in bright sunlight. You can shoot a darker lot and still have the bright sky or a white house in bright sunlight. N86 also has what Nokia calls the 28-millimeter wide-angle, it means you get more into the picture than what you get in Satio. Photo light can not really light up the dark motives that you could want.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Video

Sony Ericsson Satio
Often, the picture becomes wavy and shaky when shooting with the phone, but it suffers from not Satio of. Although it is not so bright, but the lamp makes it possible to shoot even when the light is short. The film is surprisingly sharp, the colors are approved and both detail and contrast may be approved. The difference is large in relation to an inexpensive video camera, but to sit in a phone video recording is approved.

Nokia N86 8MP
Even the video mode offers great images, photo light can also be used to illuminate the subject in low light. The image is stable and offers good resolution, decent sharpness and good colors. Perhaps the metering a bit slower than in Satio, which deprives it of the same speed as Satio when you're shooting around in an environment with different strong light sources. Wide-angle means you get very motivated even when you are relatively close.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Screen

Sony Ericsson Satio
Looking for sharpness, color, resolution and brightness are Satios screen really well. A film looks fine on the phone even if 3.5 inches is the smallest team if you're going to look at longer works. Perhaps Youtube Clips more moderate. If we look at touch-sensitive it is not as sensitive, such as the iPhone screen Sony Ericsson chose a resistive screen. The advantage is that you can tap it with such pens or finger mitts.

Nokia N86 8MP

2.6 inch may not sound as much as several phones have 3.5 or 4 inches. But if you accept the size put you on a very cute and nice picture in your phone. AMOLED technology is also bright, but despite that, I think that the screen can be a bit difficult to see in bright light. To watch a movie I think is a bit tough after a while because it actually gets very little on a 2.6-inch screen.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Usability

Sony Ericsson Satio
Three buttons for calls and setting the screen and a bunch of camera buttons on the side. Other features you may point you to. Thanks to large icons and menus captured do not hesitate to spot the right. It is rather large and angular, and may be a bit difficult to handle with one hand in certain situations, a bit more rounded style had not been wrong. It can handle web, email, all possible connections, distraction is the absence of 3.5 millimeter connector for music and charge via Micro USB.

Nokia N86 8MP
N86 is a phone packed in a pretty little package. It is quite heavy but feels solid rather than clumsy. E-mail settings are admirably simple, it does not feel that it is possible to make it better and easier. Unfortunately it is not so with all the settings, some things have to look around in a lot of different menus to find it and drag down the grade a bit. But when the phone is properly configured, it is very easy to use and has many smart features that help you.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other

Sony Ericsson Satio

Sony Ericsson's first Symbian Phone reminds a lot about the Nokia 5800 because they share the pekbaserade operating system. Sony Ericsson has put a bit own stamp on it and it is positive. The phone is fast and reacts well, but some things need fine-tuning. E-mail settings could have been easier, smoother and Exchange support the illogical alternating between single and double-click to confirm your choices irritating.

Nokia N86 8MP

A clever little legs on the rear mounted around the camera lens starts the media player when extended. Really smart and nice if you do not want to sit with the handset in front of his nose. It is packed with technology and is able to connect in every way you could wish for. Moreover, it seems quite substantially built, which can be good if it is to go on adventures and take pictures. The flexible format and the many features in combination with a good camera is N86s strength.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

the winner is: SATIO

It provides the highest scores on the pictures and the best camera phone we've tested. It has optics to provide better focus and manage to combine a huge sensor at 12 megapixels with less noise and ugly effects of noise reduction than the N86 with its 8 megapixels does. In everyday use N86 can be flexible in several ways, but when it comes to photography is Satio number one.


im really looking forward to try this cool device

Since I am not much into megapixels, I would like to add in the Omnia HD here.. only let down by the lack of a Xenon Flash. But it more than makes up with the 720p video recording, the stunning screen and support for divx and other "usually unsupported video" content. The LED gives nice lighting for low light videos. Image quality-wise, I am quite satisfied with it. Any higher, I have my digicam

Come to think of it, the Satio is a dream come true for me. I have always wished for at least one SE phone running S60! Never did I think it would one day come true! Good Job SE!

Haven't used the N86 yet, but its quite similar to the N85 which I had extnsively used. Power packed phones both. The N86 is an apt upgrade over the 85.

Hope they price the Satio sensibly here in India.
T230 >> T610 >> Ngage QD >> N73 >> N85 >> Omnia HD >> And countless other review units
