Abt the apps, Gx, i want Opera, Implus, Smartmovie etc. The symbian ones. Not the java crap.

Opera mini is there, but yeah native opera must be faster, but I don't see much difference in both.

IMPlus alternate is Morange, IMplus is also for java.

Smartmovie sux big time, I would rather prefer encoding a video to h.263 mp4 using riverpast then smart movie

Opera has a whole lot more features than Mini.
Smartmovie/divx are amongst the best players on mobile.
No Java app can match Slick/Implus

Hmm, then it's better to buy the Sony Ericsoon G900 or Nokia N78. Atleast they look better then N82 in physical looks to me. N82 seriously looks like a brick to me

Hey gourav-
1. Looks - N82 has definitely improved with the black version..It does look equivalent to the K850i in this department if not beats it....
2. Cam results - better than the K850i....U can check some of the reviews on the net for confirmation if u don't trust me...
3. Price - www.univercell.in - N82-19615/-, K850i - 19135/- So a price difference of Rs. 480 only...

Now the extras that u will get by spending these Rs. 480/-
1. Wifi - K850i does not have wifi...
2. N82 - 16 M colors, K850i - 256k ... So clarity of N82 is better.
3. Display size - N 82 - 2.4'', K850i - 2.2'' - Higher screen is better for internet surfing.
4. Phonebook - N82 - u can store unlimited entries...K850i - 1000 x20 fields
5.Call records - N82 - 30 days..K850i - 30 entries... So N82 is better as u have call records of 1 month...
6. OS - N82 is symbian so more applications are available...
7. GPS Navigation - N82 has it..K850i doesn't. Now don't tell me that whenever GPS is launched in ur city u will not use it...
8. Weight - N82 - 114g, K850i - 118 g (This is minor issue and can be negated)
9. 3.5 mm audio jack - N82 has - so you can plugin any headphones...
10. TV Output - N82 can be connected 2 ur TV 2 view ur photos and videos or 4 that matter whatever comes on ur N82 screen... K850i lacks this feature...
11. Office document Viewer - N82 has it...U can read ur excel, word, pdf docs in N82 after loading it...K850i - This feature is missing....
13. N82 cam has carl Zeiss optics with a xenon flash and autofocus....K850i does not have Carl Zeiss optics in its cam...
14. N82 - equipped with ARM 11 332 MHz processor...Although symbian the N82 is really really fast...
15. Internal memory - N82 - 100 MB..K850i - 40 MB ( So N82 is better)

So, dear what else do u want by spending just Rs. 418/- extra....According 2 me N82 is a better choice in this segment.....

Note:- I am not a fanboy of any brand...Whatever is better, I just acknowledge it...I own a K750i and I know its cam is best in 2 MP category...I love my K750i and will never sell it...

and gourav if u wud have asked me 2 choose between N73 and K810i, I wud have chosen K810i coz its cam is better....

BUT in the 20k segment, It is N82 only.. It is definitely a better deal....:p

Rest depends on u dear...Go 4 whatever ur heart says...coz u have 2 use whatever u buy and in the end it is ur satisfaction that matters the most....

Amazing comparison....! Hats Off to Uppalpankaj

-------------------------------------------------------
Dear iatb.gourav,if the mobile is to impress your GF,then go for K850i...If it is for your use only then N82 is a good choice.

After all these discussions, atleast now u know everything about the two phones. See, all i would suggest is go with the one, whichever suits u best! Make ur own decision. Coz, in the end...u wont have any regrets.:)

Thanks a lot for so many replies, guys.
There are a lot of things to which I'd like to reply. Do correct me if I get wrong anywhere.

N82. BTW how much did ya get in your entrances?
All the results are not yet out but I have cleared for CSE in ICFAITECH B'lore & Sikkin Manipal University.

Hey gourav-
1. Looks - N82 has definitely improved with the black version..It does look equivalent to the K850i in this department if not beats it....
Looks are rather a personal choice as they can't be measured. I feel N82 comes nowhere even close to K850i when it comes to looks.

Hey gourav-
2. Cam results - better than the K850i....U can check some of the reviews on the net for confirmation if u don't trust me...
I agree that most experts say the N82 has a better cam than K850i. But, AFAIK, the difference is very slight only. I can ignore that.

Hey gourav-
1. Wifi - K850i does not have wifi...
I won't be using it anyways.

And the n82 is just as sleek and sexy as any fone can get. Do you mind if we get a computer in the same price as other show off fones?
Again, if you call N82 sleek & sexy I don't know what will you call K850i ? Secondly, I do want want a computer in my phone. I'll be getting my laptop and I'll use that for all computing purpose, internet etc.

Bro take the mobile in hand.. use it for 5 min and think again..
I don't get why you said so?
Maybe, you are referring to the fingerprints that gets attracted easily.
I'll keep this in mind before I buy the phone.

So have you completed your BE or which year you are in .
No, I've just given my engineering entrance exams.

hee hee .. this thread is quite funny .. u got 20k budget ..then get n82 dude .. k850i is failed product ( check esato forum) .. what is there to think .. and i am no fanboy either
K850i is a failed product ??? Okey, even if I agree that N82 is better, what made you say that K850i is a failed product ? Please please please elaborate a bit more on this.

One last thing, which one of the two is louder ? (Both music & ringtone)

So that means you want to go with K850i.. Go ahead go for it! But looking at your post above, you are only going for it cause of the looks (which is ok if you want looks). Other than looks (which are subjective), there is no way you can compare N82 with K850i.

ok leave are you a gamer ?

i think you are ...

have you ever played a symbian game ?

Java games are all crap and java application tends to slow down the mobile too

Lemme show you a pic of a game i love

now do you think any java game is comparable with this game ?

*img262.imageshack.us/img262/2360/screenshotsmb4pd7.jpg

india is growing up rapidly and i think in years to come the visual radio and many such apz will be usuable

and you don't want GPS haha

from you commitment i believe that you will love to show off this feature to your friends
it will also be available for your city soon as more and more company will start including these features to compete with them nokia will concentrate more and more on improving this feature

N82 also has accelerometer

dude you can easily figure out the difference in screen size 2.4 > 2.2

well just go to a mobile shop and ask the bestseller for that budget you will be surprised that it is not sony but nokia n82

now it is up to you to decide

On paper N82 does looks good & more powerful then K850i but with all those features one questions comes in mind, will anyone use all those features?
Why not..People will use these features with time...


It is a mobile phone, how many places are there where you will get free WiFi or something??? Maybe Barista or CCD, but it's not like u stay there for ever. Having WiFi over GPRS/EDGE for internet won't make a difference in a phone anyway.

Wifi is a great feature of N82...U can have a BB connection with wifi modem and can use it for surfing on ur mobile...N82 can connect 2 wifi devices such as ur laptop for data transfer etc...The 3G is being launched in India by the end of this yr and wifi pts. r gonna increase with time...

A difference of .2 inches is hardly noticable.

A greater screen gives a better surfing experience and bigger screen is better...

In real world scenario, this is irrelevent.

Call records - 30 days for N82..Can u retrieve the person's cell no. who called u 30 days back with K850i...I don't think that u will make only one call per day with the K850i.....

it's not available. Why pay for a feature u won't use..

GPS is available in India in some cities dear...i thought that u know this....Its free..U don't have 2 pay 4 it..

How many people use this? Will u carry the cable everywhere?

Many people use the TV output feature...One always like 2 view the photos & videos taken ob big screen. So this is quite a handy feature..

Won't make much difference, picture quality depends on light.

The cam results r better due to Carl Zeiss optics...Just check the review sites 4 this...

you don't use a memory card?

But bigger memory is always better...

Overall N82 is for those who want a brick & a small computer while K850i is for those who want a multimedia device & phone.

And Dear N82 is not a brick phone..K850i is heavier by 4 gms than N82...
N82 - 114 g, K850i - 118 gms.

( Now which one is a brick, u decide...)

Guys, I accept that I am a little inclined towards K850i.

Honestly speaking, it because of its stylish design.

And secondly, the I'll be using features like wifi, internet surfing, or viewing office documents on my laptop.

That's why I thought that K850i would be a better choice for me. (I've always liked stylish phones ... My last few phones were Moto Rizr V3i & Moto Razr Z3)

But, looking after such unanimous inclination towards N82, I feel that I am making a mistake.
Still I am not 100% convinced.

Is K850i really such a bad phone?

the bad is dpad,accelerometer,camera,design,softkeys.

D -Pad wise K850 is better then N82
Keypad Wise K850i is much better then N82
K850i looks like a gadget, N82 looks like a brick to me. Even N78 looks better
Camera is subjective, I find Sony Good, U find Nokia good.
Design wise K850i is easier to use then N82
Softkeys of N82 sux
Accelerometer is hardly usefull in real world
