Code, can you upload them fullsize too? Its hard to compare details, photos are compressed and details lost if you upload the images with esato.
This is a good image hosting site, shows pictures in their original size and also fits the pictures to your monitor, you dont need to sign up either.

We don't know because people who own both phones wont do full size comparisons in daylight

I'm lazy today so just copy a paste of one of my old posts:

From mobile01.com's W902 vs C901 vs C905 shootout I took one full size crop of both C905 and C901 and then scaled up the C901 shot by 26 percent (the difference 5MP to 8MP diagonally) and joined them together side by side:

Can anyone guess which is which?
To the C905's defence I say the colors are better...

So it comes down to what you find most important: color or richness in detail.

C901 left to C905 right?
I find richness of detail far more important, colors are an easy change.

IF C901 had same great colour rendition as C905....it would probably be one of the best 5m.p cam-phones out there.........

i cant really get a grip of C901, some pictures have good/accurate colours and some pictures looks absolutely weird, (looks like they are shot with Solarize or something)

(im refer to this kind of "issue"........as we see on quite many pages inside the c901-thread)

until this "issue" is fixed, C905 is superior in all aspects............

Hmm, you have just chosen an over-exposed/under-saturated picture from a thread with hundreds of photos in, anyone can do that with any picture thread including those from digital SLRs...

@AbuBasim
Which is which??

C905 on the left. C901 produces more detail than the C905 because of milder noise reduction. But the C905 produces better colors. At least in this single shot comparison...

Another example - C901 first, then C905:



More examples in the site (mobile01) I linked in my previous post. Scroll down to the 100% C901-C905 comparison shots towards the end.

I have to defend C905 Poor details have always been a problem in C905 but I think it's not that bad as we can see on pictures from comparision where C901 eats C905 alive. I see many better quality pictures from C905 here on Esato and I like them, maybe because of modded driver I don't know. Auto colors from both are indeed different - warm C905 against cold C901 but which one is better? The better one are these well balanced with small help of WB settings in the camera menu

Plank
A little bit of good will is enough to see a lot of very nice pictures instead of relentless searching for weaknesses and inventing very doubtful "issues". Weak quality is not a rule but a deviation from what the camera can really do and in this case, the C901 is no different from the rest.

What about this one from C905?

I have no ill will and I won't say that this is often "issue" in C905 pictures thread because one picture which looks a bit weird cannot throw a shadow on the rest.
