The k790 came out 2 years ago...and make no mistake..it did not jump o the top at the first release...there were many bugs which wer however sentenced to in lessthan 5 months..the k750 was a bestseller.the best 2 mp phone ver made...the same cam module was used in the w800 and the w810...
then came the age of the 3.2 mp phones..sony excelled in that too..coming up with flying results in the k790/k810 category..
even now the 3.2 mp phones by SE..namely the w890,w760 have the best cams in the business..
then came the 5 mp market..SE lost some ground here owing to the fact that the n95 had tbeen there for a long period of time...the first n95 was a disaster..with the phone lagging,crashing,had battery problems,build quality problems,etc etc...but the year had taught nokia and then they cam out blasting with the n95 8 gb version and the n82..SE however for some reason delayed their 5 mp flagship..and finally released the k850...its imperible thatthe first version had many bugs..and the mobile review sites..well..went forward and tested the beta software..
the beta firmware has alaways been a case of inefficiency on part of SE..whn the final release has brought in rich dividends..the beta firmware has always brought itslef down..as a result..worse reviews and fall in SE's market share...but times have changed and SE has released better and more stable firmware...the pic quality has improved drastically..the K850 uses the IMX-2020 cam sensor whih is one of the best in its class..and has immense power to counter any situation..
@praka-speed does not depend on processing power alone...SE does not need a heavily powered processor coz its a feature phone..and they hardly make use of much of the processing power left..and the phones are coded in such a way that maximum utilization of raw processing power is done...
the symbian UIQ phones by SE have more ram and also run on high end processors..pertains to the needs of the user.
K810 cpu and k850 cpu are similar - 208 Mhz
N series use 3xx Mhz
its just that K810 software (A100 platform) is more stable than the new K850 software (A200 platform), which is still under development.
N series sometimes slow down because they use symbian OS (sometimes heavier than Java)
@praka-cool thread..hope those nokia guys dont cum spamming here as well..
