Grand 5 megapixel shootout: The usual suspects - read the full textNo catch here, we've finally managed to finish up our grandest of camera shootouts including the most popular 5 megapixel cameraphones that are currently on sale. We've put Sony Ericsson K850, Nokia N95 8GB, LG KU990 Viewty, and Samsung G600...

 

to be quite honest.. i wouldnt be any of these phone's maybe the samsung g600 cause of its price.. cause camera phone's are starting to get really good.. wait for the next generation from SE, lg, samsung, and nokia... then we will see something interesting.. instead of a contest for the least noise.!!! lol. ps hopefully...

Why does everone on here get so offended. Nokia are not paying GSM Arena to give good reviews. Its just Fact that Nokia are a BRILLIANT manufacturer and no exactly what their clients want.
Samsung should stick to other electronical items such as TVs and Cameras as every phone that has recently come out has just been OK. They all look the same and nothing exciting comes from Samsung.
I have a nokia n95 and a Nokia N95 8GB which is much better than my HTC and previous Samsungs i have had. Samsung make nice looking phones and that is really it.

Thanks for the excellent review, it's great! Seems like N82 is the best cameraphone at the moment...

N95 8GB is best camera phone this is not first time that GSMARENA perform comparision of N95 8GB with K850i, G600 and Viewty but in almost every test N95 8GB performed well than others don't forget that N95 8GB has larger CMOS sensor hence less noise ,better accuracy the only phone that can beat N95 8GB is N82 which has better ISO, Good colour reproduction etc and currently neither SE nor Samsung ,LG has answer for N82, hence winner is N82.

i totally disagree with GSMARENA as i have matched N95 and K850 for my self....when talking about still pics then K850 leads in my tests and for video obviously N95.....i dont have Viewety and G600 is not an option....for this test GSMARENA should have used G800

totally agree with TC$h and andry. even i am n95 fans, i cant deny n82 is much more and more and more better, refer to the ISO, flash, and of course the performance speed. why n82 take part in flash but not in performance speed??

N82 has same camera performance as N82? You gotta be kidding.

N82 has way better ISO performance than N95 8GB, as well as colour accuracy especially in low light condition.

N82 is the best camera phone is the world currently, nothing beat it even with CCD camera module phone as N82 is a full featured smart phone, there's no CCD camera phone can fully compare with N82.

I'm a N95 8GB user, but I must admit it, N82 take better picture than N95 8GB even without xenon flash.

This review includes the G800, and gives the n82 it's own place amongst the other camera phones. Have a look.
