I would wait a little bit for the release of the Nokia N9 ...it's a mini macbook , or this is how it looks like in shape...and it will be loaded with the Meego operating system, supposed to be the successor of Maemo which is loaded on N900 ...google it, looks really promising !!

.. please don't be confused with this two phones, as they have different strengths and weaknesses.

.. i advised you to check their specifications, and compare it with what you needs. Nokia N8 have USB on the go, meaning, you can connect your USB flash drives as well as your portable hard disk drives (up to 1.5 TB) and access your files directly from it. Watch movies in HD, making the N8 as your player via HDMI cable connected to an LCD TV. 12MP camera, having the largest sensor in all mobile phones, and shoot videos in HD up to 720p.

.. all in all, you've got a very decent package in a mobile. for this, i go with Nokia N8.

.. while iphone 4, aside from a good UI, i really dont know what it has to offer.

.. just my two cents. peace!

I am agree with your one point. Samsung is much better than Nokia. Design of Nokia sucks.

i agree to Khanan - i used to hate iphone (maybe coz i didnt have it before ..lol) but once i started using, lovely, its an amazing phone ...

Sadly, Nokia still stuck in 1990's style. if you dont like apple, then i prefer to go for Samsung, not nokia. Especially, nokia smart/touch phones sucks big time. forget it.

since I only need cellphone to call or text once in a while or take picture not hat frequent, a simple phone like Corby is enough. I get rid of my iPhone! To SOME, it's just a show-off to have the latest most expensive phone even though they don't even know to use all the function! Lol!

Black Berry is the best ever made in C.Ps. Qtel has some promotions on it. Touch screen phones are sensitive and need extra care.

If, you still want to buy any of CPs which u have mentioned. Than Go to the both websites find out benefits. IPHONE has earned very good reputation. But Nokia has lost their reputation due to their low prices phones. therefore buying expensive phone from this brand would not be a right decision.

Rest what ever you really love to have.....

Rose, is it unlcoked version price?? if you get iphone4 at 2100 then i would like to buy some of them :P, and sell it in the market for 3000 :D....

Vodafone was selling iphone4 16GB at 2850 (unlocked)...locked can be available slightly cheaper from local people in QL (but no warranty) last week. guess they are out of stock now due to demand.

Why you want to sell sonyerricson? If you think about re-sale value for a mobile after using it & getting all the benifits of it then don't buy a mobile. If you have a laptop just buy a PCMCI card & place SIM in the PCMCI card then insert it inside your laptop or inside card reader in case of you using desktop. Then start using call from your pc. One PCMCI card is QR. 300 only.

Nachu, you are right. No need to compare iPhone with other. Cause iPhone sucks.

Just check price & technical specification of iPhone/Samsung Galaxy/HTC Desire HD and compare it. You will find the value of your money.

Even Samasung Galaxy also nice phone. Just for the namesake Apple & Nokia taking more price. This two company using their goodwill in pricing their products.
