I've been reading a bit about these phones for my upgrade in November. Is there a definitive answer on which is best? As I see it the N80 is WiFi & UnP&P where the N73 isn't. Are these the main differences between the two?

N80 or N73?

In addition to WiFi, N80 has better display. N73 probably has better camera and battery life.
There is no definite answer to which is better, it depends on what you need.

Agree. Both are very good. The difference are little things.
N73 - Battery, camera and one piece equipment;
N80 - Wi-Fi.
Better... deppends of needs.

To me, Wifi is no "litte thing". It's the deal breaker. But that depends of course on what you're going to use your phone for. I think I personally actually prefer the design of N73 a little, but concerning battery and camera, I'd like to have some evidence that this really would be better in N73. N80 has a higher resolution screen (416 x 352 vs 320 x 240). I don't know if that's what gives the N80 its incredible screen. It seems that N73 has BT 2.0 while N80 of course only has BT 1.2. Still, N80 is the relative with more functions and with the higher price.

Like I said, it depends of needs...
I prefer the battery of N73 then Wi-Fi of N80, but others may need other thing.
Is because of that, that Nokia range have 50 - 60 devices.
n80.

I presume the camera software is the same on both but the N73 camera has autofocus and a mechanical shutter which gives it sharper images. Take a look for comparative reviews on GSMForum.com, MobileReview.com and Infosync.
I agree it would be nice to have wifi but it isn't really that bad. I have a 75MB data bundle from O2 for �20 per month and I've never been anywhere near using that amount of 3G data.

The wifi is much faster than 3g though. I was going to get the N73, for the better camera, and didnt think I'd really need the wifi, but got sent the N80 by mistake. Now I couldnt do without the wifi to be honest.
