GSM Cameraphone Comparison Q2 2007

We've used five megapixel phones (three 3MP and two 5MP) to compare the top of the line cameraphones available on our market and see which performs best. See our 288 sample pictures in five tests ...

I think the price tag of N95 is quite high. It costs 52000 RS.(875$) here in Pakistan.
Undoubtfully N95 has a better cam than K800 and personally I preffer the colors of N95 over K800.

It's an exllent comparison and will help a lot of people who want to buy a good camera phone..

Actually looking
Comparing detail areas from any of the picture sets shows that the N95 is virtually incapable of capturing any! It has *strong* in-camera sharpening and noise reduction, and consequently leaves, grass, faces, etc. are unrecognizable. The colors for many sets were also less accurate, to my eyes, than the K800.

I'm yet to understand the meaning of this test. The K800 had far better colours than the N95; both accurate and not oversaturated. But even that wasn't enough to win each round, because the N95 had 'more resolution'. The extra resolution was wasted because the shots were blurred beyond recognition by the noise reduction system.

In fact at night, the N95's shots were blurry and not as close to the real colour compared to the K800, but yet it still gets a better score.

And a better test for resolution as shown in the test chart, shows that the absolute resolution of the cameras to be the same.

False Review!!!
I wanted to see a fair camera comparison between camera phones... But what has phone arena done... Given the N95 the top spot for nothing... In most of the situation th K800 took better pics... Better color both at night as well as day... As for close up pics, did u guys turned the macro on, on th K800???

When I clicked to check which phone takes better pics, I thought N95 would be the best... But I m wrong... And The conclusion of this review is even more wrong and false... And I m not the only one to realise this, check others comments before me...

It seems like *okia gave u money for this!!!

k800 n00bs
The macro feature on the k800 is one of its shining points. The fact that you can't even figure out how to use it pathetic and pitiful. All avid k800/790 users know that in order to get the best macro shots, use the zoom to zoom in a tid bit to the object, then let the phone do the rest. It's saddening to see that the k800 was scored poorly in the macro section by people who obviously don't know how to use the phone.

just my .02

Who cares about 5mp?
What's the big deal about 5 megapixels? Unless you want to print big prints it does nothing for the quality of the shot. I don't see why you rated N95 higher than K800 in some areas simply for that.

What about other phones in the comparison
I would like to see how older phones like the sharp 903sh would have held up in the competition and also the imobile 902.

Biased?
Look at the night pictures again and tell me why you scored N95 higher than K800. Left me puzzled there.

On a different note, the N95 shines with its optics. Compare the day photos for magenta fringing on contrasting edges.

And finally, while the N95 is a superior phone, its camera still is sub par to the one in K800. 2 extra megapixels don't really matter for much if the pictures have that "cheap digicam" video look.
