1) Nokia N97:
Nokia is the supreme player in the multimedia category. Nokia 95 has been the flagship product of the brand for ages now (yes, ages we are living web world) and still remains difficult to beat. This is feature packed beast. With the type of hardware thrown in, its absolutely mind boggling. The first thing you would see as is common in these days is the mammoth 3.5 inches (360 x 640 pixels), the resistive touchscreen has a proximity sensor, accelerometer, hand writing recognition.Want to watch movies just pull in those 3.5 mm headphones and you're on your way to thumping experience. You can slide the screen up to uncover the full blown QWERTY keypad beneath it. It is a miniature version of latptop. Large spacious keys and a vwide screen to poerate the symbian S60 5th edition OS: the built in POcket office suite now makes sense!
The main highlight of the phone lies beneath. The N97 rocks a 5 Mega pixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, that bring you autofocus, LED Flash and a video light for night-time footage. The 2592 x 1944 pixel images are great, but the 30 FPS dvd quality smooth recording simply rocks. And yes there is a seondary camera in the front too for video calling. Under the hood, is the ARM 11 434 MHz processor and 128 MB RAM which makes the phone run like a breeze. But still there is the thing which you need to brace up for, the 32 GB built-in memory + additional 16 GB microSD card to brag a total of 48 GB on a smartphone! Carry all you music collection and still have space to use.
Added to this are the usual things like 3D, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth with A2DP, stereo FM radio, GPS (with Nokia Maps 2.0), voice command, TV-out, and support for any audio video format you throw at it. And it comes preinstalled with Adobe Flash Lite 3 plug-in, yep you assumed it right, online videos.
Feeding all these beasts is the N97's 1500 mAh humble battery. Which can play music for 40 hours, andtalk time of nine and a half hours. Retail price around US $ 700.
2) Sony Ericsson IDOU:
Wanna go for camera shopping? No IDOU's not the new changed model name of a camera, its the smartphone featuring 12.1 Megapixel camera! Helping it is a powerful xenon flash and LED flashlight for night time video shoots. With auto focus, geo-tagging, face detection, smile shutter, image stabilization... optical zooms out of the list though. But wait we are talking about a phone, so lets compare them with phones rather than cameras. And the as usual 3.5 inch defacto screen with 360 x 640 pixels. Whats the OS based on? Symbian. And then host off usual technologies like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth with A2DP, stereo FM with RDS, GPS and A-GPS, secondary VGA camera for video calls etc.
3) Palm Pre:
The perfect one to spend the money on an 'iphone killer'. Palm pre features the amazing web OS. With a curved, pebble like look, the screens a nice 3.1 inch touchscreen rendering 16 million colours at 320 x 480 pixels, and auto rotates witht he help of the built-in accelerometer. Palm pre uses the shortcoming of iphone, lack of physical keyboard. And hence it slides down to reveal impressive QWERTY keypad.
On the rear side is the 3.15 megapixel camera with enhanced fixed focus and LED flash. For multimedia enthusiasts, the Palm offers a 3.6 mm audio jack along with 8GB of internal memory; the lack of expanding the same via microSD thoug remains concern. And the again with the usual stuffs like 3G with GPS, bluetooth, wifi, microUSB, etc. Witht the omission of a radio. But given the amazing webOS interface and solid hardware, this one seems ready to take on iphone.
So now, pick your choice.
