Sony Ericsson C905 vs Samsung INNOV8-Mobile Review

Camera Comparison of Sony Ericsson C905 vs Samsung INNOV8.

“To be honest with you, I was planning this piece as a lowdownon the C905’s camera, however eventually it has turned into a head-to-head comparison with another 8 Mpix cameraphone - the Samsung INNOV8. And right off the bat, so as to dispel all questions and doubts about the credibility of our sample images, we guarantee that all shots were taken with the latest software available for these handsets. That is, our Sony Ericsson C905 was running on R1BA072 firmware, and it’s more than likely that this version will make it to the phone’s retail release. Actually, if even they will update it, it won’t make much difference, since the hardware found in our sample was exactly the same as in the commercial version of the phone.

During our quality time with either of these phones we made hundreds of photos in all imaginable environments (all in all, the final count is this: five hundred for the C905 and around a thousand for the INNOV8). So, in my opinion, we won’t run out of sample snaps any time soon, plus this vast gallery we have accumulated over the last months should make for a decent and comprehensive comparison between these two cameraphones.

Furthermore, having some other not-yet-announced 8 Mpix shooters on our hands, we managed to see how the INNOV8 and C905 fared against similarly geared solutions - as it turned out, they weren’t that much different at all.

For those of you wondering, there is no point in throwing the Samsung PIXON M8800’s camera into this write-up as well - as a matter of fact, it’s slightly worse than that found in the INNOV8. Furthermore, the M8800 is a totally different type of phone, plus it won’t be able to reach the sales of the i8510. You could just as well compare a five-liter sporty roadster and a truck with exactly the same engine. Same goes for the M8800’s direct rival, the LG K910. But those of you who can’t handle the thought they won’t see a showdown between all existing 8 Mpix shooters, skim through our exclusive review on the M8800, where we put it up against both the INNOV8 and C905. Really, there is no harm in facing it off against the best cameraphones around, but such a comparison is quite meaningless.”

Hope that everyone remembers the Sony Ericsson W707 “Alicia”, the one which has a iPod like click wheel on the front.

Yes it was leaked before but it’s back again and this time we have got ourselves a full set of pictures.

But the sad part is that its specifications are still not known.

Sony Ericsson W302 Review-Mobile Review

Sony Ericsson W302

Eldar Murtazin has published a review on the Sony Ericsson W302.

“The arrival of the W302 should come as no surprise, since it’s all another attempt on Sony Ericsson’s part to bring the Walkman range into the mainstream with an affordable solution that will dominate on the market with its light price tag. But the W302 is actually a bit of a mixed bag – while they had to keep its price within certain brackets, they also borrowed the design from already-announced top-tier offerings, such as the Sony Ericsson W880i and Sony Ericsson W890i.”

Sony Ericsson W980 Review-Mobile Review

Sony Ericsson W980

Eldar Murtazin of Mobile Review has published a review on the Sony Ericsson W980 Walkman handset.

“To say that the W980 will be a mass-market device would be a daring prediction. It’s not even about its music player or audio quality. The real reason is that Sony Ericsson’s music-savvy flagships have never been particularly popular, bar this line-up’s first member. On top of that the W980 is not the cheapest phone around, which leads us to believe it will follow in the footsteps of the Sony Ericsson W900i.”

Sony Ericsson C905 Camera-Mobile Review

Sony Ericsson C905

Eldar Murtazin has published an article which deals with the camera on the 8 Megapixel Sony Ericsson C905.

Mobile Review is the first site to publish photos taken by the final version of the C905.

“In view of the C905’s noisy matrix, the macro mode won’t work well when shooting indoors either - without flash you’ll keep getting blurry snaps, and turning flash on will make the camera smear up some details. But the truth is, it’s a generic problem of most today’s cameraphones (although Samsung i8510’s macro mode is still better). The Sony Ericsson C905’s digital zoom is no bells and whistles - check out the images below to see how it works.”

Sony Ericsson vs Playstation-Mobile Review

Sony Ericsson F305 Gaming Phone

Eldar Murtazin has published an interesting article called Sony Ericsson vs Playstation. The article is set on the topic of mobile gaming.

“When it comes to settling down on the mobile gaming market, Sony Ericsson doesn’t have much of a choice. The easiest and the most obvious step for them would be to get some game developer under their wing, instead of development of complex online gaming systems. Basically, this step is very essential to reduce the price of games development and embed more of them into Sony Ericsson barnded mobile phones. Take the Sony Ericsson F305i, for example - it comes included with eleven games and this is only the beginning, expect to see more of this approach from Sony Ericsson down the road.”

8 Megapixel Race-Mobile Review

Samsung i8510 INNOV8

Eldar Murtazin of Mobile Review has published an interesting article on the 8 Megapixel Race.

Sony Ericsson C905

“In terms of technical specifications, the INNOV8 is way ahead of the C905 and the reasons for that go far beyond its Symbian origins. It packs in a more expensive camera module, offers comparable image quality (let’s take the side of the C905 this one time, although this statement isn’t quite true), boasts a 2.8 inch display (against the C905’s 2.4 inches), and allows the user to install third-party navigation software (whereas with the C905 your choice is pretty much limited to what the phone come boxed with).”
