A Fair Comparison?

A Microsoft fangirl has decided to compare the new Microsoft phone (Tanager) with another phone to see which comes out on top.

What does he compare it with?

Take a look.

He has two conclusions;

Straight away you can see that it isn't as long as the Nokia, which is a pretty good thing! Oh, and of course you get a wickedly clear snazzy colour screen on the Tanager, whereas the Nokia has some two-colour rubbish...

So, next, I'm going to compare the Nokia7650 with a SonyJ5, oh, while I'm at it, I may compare my uncle's Ferrari with a Horse and Cart and see which has most legs (but the horse does have a longer........ snout).

are these people mad.

i mean how in gods name can you compare a 6310i with a so called "smartphone". :x :x :evil: :evil:

what is wrong with these people.

its quite funny. a while back Microsoft came to my university to show the new inventions. i was speaking to one of their rep's and he was saying how good microsoft are...

well i was impressed by one thing he had a very very small computer mouse. so he thought that was his chance and started saying have you seen this and he took out a SPV.

after him telling me all the info about the phone i took out my Nokia 9210 😃 😃 😃 and i think you can imagine what the reaction was like. and on top of that my mate works for carphonewarehouse and he said quote " why is the phone so crap, it has many software problems and we (carphonewarehouse) have taken many back". he changed the subject so fast it was funny..

It is a good comparison.
As he says at 1 point that all he and his friends use were that type of Nokia ...
What sence would it make to compare with a Symbian?

Besides since it was just a comparison based on physical size the OS doesn't matter at all.

i see where your coming from Dazler, but you have to remember that there comparing a so called "Smartphone" with a normal phone.

in that sense you have to compare a smartphone with a smartphone. if the other phone is a symbian then so be it, but to make a comparison fair then i think you should compare a smartphone with a smartphone.

unfair comparison if you ask me... the Tanger doesn't quite seem on par with the Nokia, he should probably have compared the Tanger to his toaster to be a bit more reasonable 😃
