N95 8GB or iphone 3G? They're the same price for me! Which one should I pick? I'm not a heavy internet/email over phone user and would mainly use the phone for music & camera. Someone help me decide, please!

Don't just say you don't use it when you don't have it. This is not an excuse. This is a must to be considered a good phone."
...and I used my iPhone to take photos of a party, uploaded 45 pictures to Facebook and emailed the link to 25 friends.
Instant, sharing I'm glad you agree the iPhone is a good phone.

iPhone 3G has certain flaws in other aspects that I've stated earlier ago.
This is an open discussion.

Anonymous, 13 Oct 2008What you need is a laptop ............I got a laptop and it's bulky.
Why not having a phone that can be a miniature version of the laptop? Such as Xperia or HTC Touch Pro?

It is still common in countries such as Asia or parts Eastern Europe.
I assume MMS may not be popular in your country.
Why not implement sidelines (since Apple has the technology) to tackle Apple's competitors such as Nokia or Samsung?

what r u using it for??
for fun??
see iPhone pics result before you talk it eve... moreLet's list out the arguments:
---------------------------------
5mp pix cam
what r u using it for??
for fun??
see iPhone pics result before you talk it even beats nokia's 3mp cams result,, its crystal clear,,
---------------------------------
So u said it's clear? Since Apple has the technology to implement further pixels and xenon flash technologies, by all means why not do it? I don't see a good reason why Apple is not coming out with better pixels and flash in the iPhone 3G.
..................................
-----------------------------------
- No more than 14mm thick.
soo?? isn't this phone thin enough?
-----------------------------------
No arguments on this. I agree with you here, since it is currently less than 14mm.
....................................
------------------------------------
MMS, bluetooth transfer is a must.
MMS?? once again use email dude where r u living??
in the early 80's??,, bluetooth is a big flaws i think, but i can live without it,,
-----------------------------------
If bluetooth is a big "flaws", then why did Apple introduce bluetooth support for headsets? Bluetooth is good for file transfer among phones. You have to live with it now.
...................................
-----------------------------------
- Good battery.
you never seen or use or even touch any of apple's product then i assume,, to give you info that apple products has good battery life
------------------------------------
I assume you are talking about the older generation of ipods. ipod touch 1st gen has a weak battery life. Apple's first gen iPhone lost completely to n95 8gb.
You should be saying more specific products like macbooks, rather than generalizing. Then again, this website is for mobile phones, not other products to discuss about.

Problems, 13 Oct 2008The question you are asking is not logical. It's like asking: Why do we need a superior web br... moreI use the web on my phone all the time, for a few hours every day, I have used many phones since they had CSD and WAP.
I used to use Opera mini on my old phones starting with version 1.
Web use = 6+ hours a day, email 6 accounts I continuously check, I also use Bloomberg, stock quotes, trading software, currency exchange rates etc, all are easily accessible, there is no burrowing down through menus, I have desktops full of bookmarks, games, business apps that I access by flicking screens with a finger and touching.
My phone is synced to exchange so I have access to over 5000 contacts, full access, phone numbers email addresses etc again I can just flick through them or type a couple of letters in the search field then toch a number or email address to email them, call them or send an SMS.
I used an E71 the other day and and couldn't even read the links they were that small, zooming was a painful step by step experience, emails also had tiny text.
To sync with Exchange you have to go to Nokia site and download software to a PC then install it, the iPhone works out of the box.
Safari is the best!
In the last 5 years I sent 3 MMS.
People keep whining about how this phone does this and that phone does that, go and buy another phone don't keep coming here and harping on about it.

wow great phone.
one of the great phone i have use.
although it does not have some basic features, it is a great phone
for people who want a touchsceen phone and multimedia phone
because it's acceloremeter can play alot of fun games to keep your time occupy. the sound system is basic and its nothing special and the design is very good and i like the design very much and its worth while for the design and the price in singapore. the battery life is quite a drinker and i charge it once every 2 days.

- No ... moreThat's a good list of ideas.
Here's mine to Apple:
1. 5mp camera with dual LED flash, or xenon flash. 8mp can be a warm welcome, although not necessary.
2. bluetooth file transfer
3. MMS
4. less than 15mm and have at most 118grams.
5. Have some sort of application to edit office documents
6. Upgrade to a slightly better speaker.
7. Make the back slightly more resistant to scratches.
8. Have 3G video call.
9. Have a battery life similar to Omnia.
10. Implement the microSD card slot.
11. Removable battery (using micro screws)
12. Able to switch between tasks using task manager
13. Have infrared (Not necessary.)
14. Battery charges fast. (Definitely stands out of the mobile crowd, if Apple were to put this point into place)

but apple made very good job in making this crap very popular and that is why many people say is better than many other phones(like n96) and that is not true... just see and compare the features of this phone with htc products or a nokia or a sony...
this phone is crappy, i thought apple was making a very good improve from the first iphone but it wasn;t like i thought...
just one time more... crappy phone... better have anything else... sorry for the people who like it very much... i respect you preferences....but is crappy phone... no more words... see ya!!!!
