n96 vs iphone

17 September 2008 435 views 5 Comments

I happened to read my previous post on nokia n96 vs iphone. I just realised that while the comparison between n96 and iphone was quite exhustive, it was a bit too long for my choice. So here is a summary of that post.

  1. The nokia n96 does not stand a chance on coolness factor. iPhone is perhaps the only mobile that can impress your freinds.
  2. N96 has a good user interface. However good is not enough while you are competeing with steve jobs product.
  3. storage and camera are perhaps the 2 most important functionality of any mobile phone. And Nokia N96 is a clear winner on both counts. Actually the camera in iPhone is a shame.
  4. When I first thought about music, I thought iphone will be a clear winner. Was I wrong!!! Nokia n96 beats iphone on the music front as well.
  5. iPhone scores over n96 in battery life though.

    I want to ask you a question about eCPM and how to ensure it stays high.

    You have the mywalkin site which gets high users.

    Can you tell me from experience.

    Hey Sita, long time..huh..

    Anyways, I just wanted to know whether you’ve actually tried and tested these two phones or are you just going by other blog posts and reviews..etc..
    Because, although I agree with your post on a whole, I don’t think that N96 really matches up to iPhone on the music front anyways. I have used the iPhone piously for a month now, and really in my opinion…iPhone just scores way more than N96 (I have also used my friend’s N96 on occasions). What with the iPhone software update and better music management tools in iTunes (Genius)..??

    For the camera, definitely, any phone with more than 3.2 mp camera will beat iphone hands down (specially with no video recording..or maybe I haven’t yet come across any such app till now)…but the fact remains that the 2mp camera in iphone easily competes with most of the 3.2mp cameras :)

    Looking forward to a good and interesting discussion on this topic :)
