LG KG920 vs. SE K800 vs. Nokia N73: One more photo shootout - read the full textRecently we've got LG K920 for testing; this is one of the first 5MP camera GSM phones available on the market. We've decided that it's a good idea to test it against one of the best currently available 3MP camera phones, and also great rivals - Sony Ericsson K800 and Nokia N73.

 

The mobile makers are at it again...

Pretending the quality of pics from their TOYS can even approximate the image quality of the cheapest dedicated point and shoot digital camera.

Well they DON'T. That's right, they DON'T. You're better off folks with something like this: http://www.steves-digicams.com...ji_a400.html

Cheaper, won't cost an arm and a leg, and takes better photos. A lot better.

Wake up cellphone makers! Stick to making iPod wannabes.

From these three phones.
For camera results,small factor,music ---go for sony k800
For screen size,symbian os,productivity,music,surround stereo speakers,internet,battery life (this is the great advantage) ---------------- go for nokia n73
For Sound clarity,loudspeakers,camera shot quality---go for LG920

Do u really need camera quality?Ans: to the date Sony is the best.
Do u really consider music quality? Ans: Sony is the best
Do u really consider battery life: Ans nokia N73 has awesome battery life of 3 1/2 days..
Do u really consider surfing internet: Nokia is the best ..then Windows Smartphones come.
do u really need best value for money: SE are better
Do u need the best All rounder? Nokia ,the Name says it all

Do u really consider the video clarity? go for Nokia N73///
No Competition for this . SE 178X208 like that.... nokia 320 X240 or more.... But Nokia 6233 ME and N95 620X480 resolution.
Do ur eally consider the resale value: SE are better.....Nokia prices are slashing every moment..... U know waht u r paying for????
Do u really consider the latest innovations of smartphone capability> ie, no need to carry even a laptop.... --- NOKIA N73 is the winner....
Best Smartphone ever....
Do u really consider the average product: Go for Lg....They didnt climbed since 4 years in mobil arena...


I do not know...What to choose....?
But I prefer nokia n73 MUSIC EDITION..Best all rounder....

K800 has the natural color.Some the nokia fans do not accept because i think nokia has written those comments.Soon k810 will come and then sony ericsson rules

Have anyone tried to analyse also camera flashes? It would be interested to see what would be the result at 2 meter and 3 meter distance between different high end phones

anyway, who really cares about tint? just adjust them in photoshop. all 3 have distinctive tints. i actually prefer LG's tint than the others.

...No offence meant to native people living in tropical environments without a roof, but are they the most likely buyer-segment?

Why does everybody -including GSMarena- keep on this MegaPixel babbling?
With this minuscule size of optics, it physically(!) impossible to get decent pictures under normal conditions, and the more MegaPixels they squeeze in the worse the thermal noise gets!
Even compact-cameras (with their small but relative larger optics) have this problem...
Yes it works decently in direct sunlight, but how many interesting situations you want to capture are in this condition?

lemme tell ya, buy a digital camera, don't show any of your problem with those brands, they was made with segment, k800 is not so good compare to nk but it's cheap, the n73 is expensive but it's a smartphone, so make your choice on the budget not from the quality...goddamn you all pain in the but, i'm sick reading those opinion like who's the best or something, it's all about THE BUDGET....none is the winner MAKE YOUR GODDAMN CHOICE
