Samsung G810

Samsung G810 has it all. It is a 5 mega pixel camera phone with WiFi, GPS, bluetooth, USB 2.0 and many more. The camera has 3X optical zoom too. It has 3G capabilities with HSDPA and a 2.4" LCD display with 256k colors. It has 3.5mm audio jack and TV out functionality. Xenon flash is a bit disappointing. The greatest disadvantage is that only TriBand version is available. The optical zoom also reduces the quality of the camera images. So this reduces the overall rating to 3.2 out of 5.

Nokia N82 black

After many rumours it has been confirmed that N82, the Nokia's best camera phone will be available as a black variant too. This phone has features same as normal N82 with 5 mega pixel camera, GPS, Wifi and 2.4" LCD screen with 16 million colors. The black model looks stunning more than its predecessor silver. All it needed was just a re-painting. Black will hit the shops very soon. So be ready to grab one.

The 5 mega pixel battle

If you are planning to buy a camera phone, then drop by to read this interesting review about the 5 mega pixel camera phones that are available in the market now. Several tests were conducted under different conditions and the quality of each photo and performance of each phone was analyzed thoroughly. Here are some results.

If you want the most universal performer this will surely be the Nokia N95 8GB. With the Nokia N82 you even have a xenon flash and exactly the same camera performance, so you might as well go that way too. Our observations are that the Nokia N82 handles all photo situations as the Nokia N95 and produces the same results.

Then if your top priority is well thought and capable interface you may chose Sony Ericsson K850. It delivers a superior user experience and feels like a real digital camera at times.

If you are into video recordings and macro shots, then your choice should be the LG KU990 Viewty. The widescreen touch screen display also counts as it's a unique feature among the contenders.

And finally if you are looking for the best-bang-for-the-buck and reliable performance you might as well go with the Samsung G600. While it's not a fully-fledged cameraphone, it does have its strong points and we shouldn't also forget that it's the most affordable of the bunch.

Samsung G600

If you are going for a slide phone, then Samsung is the best. This one is no exception. This quad band 2G slider is fit and finish is exemplary. It is light weighted and feature packed phone that will keep you interesting all the while. The front face is dominated by 2.2 inch LCD screen. The colors are of 16 million. They are sharp and crisp. The navigation buttons are well spaced and can navigate without even looking at the phone. Whenever you enter a number, it will be seen with a calligraphy type with a scratching sound.
The memory offered by this phone is 40mb and has a microSD slot with hot swap feature. The camera is of 5 mega pixel size. The camera performance is good but can not be compared with Sony or Nokia. It supports almost all formats. The music is of great quality. Performance g600 is great. Processor speed is fast and speaker is loud enough to be heard in a noisy environment. The overall rating is 3.8 out of 5.

Nokia n95 8gb

This new mobile just got better. I can go on and say that this is the best phone in the market right now!!! Yes it's true. The navigational controls are totally revamped. The buttons are easy to use and the processor is super fast. The Music quality is better than the ordinary n95 but still a long way to go to reach heights of the latest w series phones. The camera is another good feature of this phone. It performs ultimately in outdoors and brightly lit conditions. But in the dimmer side, the sharpness is a bit lacking. The flash quality is great. But it is disappointing to see that the lens cover has been removed and it might be exposed to some damage, if mishandled. The phone comes with 160mb internal memory and an extended 8gb of flash memory. There is no way of increasing the memory, no card slots (you wont require them either). There is a fully functional GPS and a super fast WiFi. There are bluetooth and FM radio too in this phone. This new phone comes up with a new battery that has few more hours of life than the ordinary n95. I got battery life of two days under nominal use. In conclusion, it is a superb convergence device. My rating is 3.9 out of 5.

Sony Ercisson k850i

This is the all new camera phone introduced by Sony Ericsson. It has 5 mega pixel camera with auto focus and Xenon flash. The other features are quite similar to its predecessor k790i. The only difference is that it is having distinct keys for making and disconnecting the calls. This is the first time sony Ericsson has come up with this sort of keys. The navigation key has been changed to normal key from the usual joystick that was available with the earlier models. This was after several complaints that were received regarding the malfunctioning of the joystick (But I do not have any problems with the joystick in my k790i). The camera and the audio quality is better than n95. With 20,000 Rupees as the price tag, it is much cheaper than n95 but it does not have WiFi and GPS. It is important to note that it is having the longest battery life than many other phones that are coming with these features. So it is definitely a valuable possession.
