The N82's Xenon flash was much more powerful than that of the K850s. Would be interesting to see how the C905's Xenon flash fares up.]]>Jun 17th 2008 3:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 3:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 3:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 3:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 3:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 4:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 4:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/And this is still the same SE now with just 8mp camera and 2.4 screen.
Good thing is that it looks pretty nice considering that it's a bit fat(thought not blaming SE for that).

Still i cant help than think that this will be as horrible buggy flop as k850i was. Most of the smartphone, feature phone buyers have already noticed that cybershot dosent mean better quality as Nokia and Sams danced around SE in the gategory where SE should be the one to show the way.
Thought maybe this will actually have good optics? Should see when reviews come out.]]>Jun 17th 2008 6:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 12:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/

these days we expect far too much.

eg how often do we get disappointed with movies these days... our expectations in this day nd age are extremely high and it'll always be hard to impress.

I'm due for an upgrade now. I want the w960i but this may persuad me to wait a few months...]]>Jun 17th 2008 3:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 3:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/

I wonder how much internal memory and RAM it has. This thing will be completing against the N96 in the most part, which has 16 GB internal and space for a memory card (up to 32 GB courtesy of MicroSDHC cards) and a DVB-H receiver (Mobile TV) as two examples.]]>Jun 17th 2008 4:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 3:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 3:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 3:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/Jun 17th 2008 4:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/

This isn't really intended to go against the Nokia N series phones. This is a high spec 'feature phone', not a 'smart phone'. It's for people (such as my wife) who want a good camera (for a phone) and a phone. That's it. Nothing more. These phones are an awful lot cheaper for the networks to subsidise compared to the N-series.

I bet the vast majority of people who end up with S60 phones do not add a single application (beyond the occaisonal game that you can also get in Java).

SE are, I think, coming our with some Symbian (with a UIQ front end, I'm guessing) camera phones with proper touch screens. They might be worth looking at if you want a smart phone...]]>Jun 17th 2008 4:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/sony-ericssons-8-1-megapixel-c905-breaks-free/
well... the Sony Ericsson G900 has UIQ 3.0 Symbian OS v9.1

so I assume the C905 will too...

Shouldn't I be able to buy any phone and use it for any carrier. What happenned to that?

As long as the photos are acceptable it is fine. What do people want DSLR quality photos from a phone? I have a DSLR but I don't want to carry it all the time. I don't want to spend $250 on another point and shoot and most cameraphones in the US are VGA if you are lucky 2 MP with absolute garbage image quality.

I would think you could get a pretty nice 4x6 with a Cybershot Phone. That is all that matters.]]>Jun 17th 2008 11:31AM
