Sony w810i/k800i/etc vs N72/73/80/ etc

Actually as per mobile-review , nokia is tired of people getting hand on nokia proto handsets which have unfinished firmware . And giving them bad reviews. . . . That's what they tell. But i am not sure.

hmm... btw whts the prics of the n93 and n73.. and r those models released in India??

Well they arent available officially I think... though the N93's cost is quoted arnd 40k... no idea abt N73

N73 has also got macro mode
The only thing missing is the real xeon flash.

Finally, a review of N73 is available here!

w810i cost is around 15100 in mumbai without bill

W810i is fr 14.5k in BLR without bill

with bill 15.6

I've actually compared W550i and N70 (through Ad-15 adapter, on Powermp3 app), on Sony Fontopia headphones (which were included with W550i)

Believe me, even if there was a difference, no normal ear could seperate the two.

N70 could eventually go upto higher volumes, even beating Winamp's max on my PC. (due to the equalizer in powermp3 app, it present a Db bar that could further upper the max volume), on top of that, N70 now can play WMA and OGG formats (with 3rd party apps) - Both non-playable on any W series phone, bar that W950i symbian smartphone.

However, that was with a W550i, I haven't got the oppurtunity to test it with the newer Walkman phones like W810, but I don't expect any difference at all. And with Kingston's latest release, a 2GB Rs-DV mmc, space won't be a problem either.

After using ad15 i have to agree with params
i had a w800 and the volume is much better in nokia . It actually sounds more fuller then even ipods.(compared with ipod5th). (and do not flame me, that is what i felt). And if you use good quality desktop speakers. Then this will be almost perfect for you .
W800 when connected to pc speakers produced good sound but low volume. N70 just rocked.
still nokia should have given playback controls.
