See, it's not just me who likes to do smartphone in-depth comparisons. Michell Bak, over at MobileXpert, has done a pretty thorough hands-on comparison of the Sony Ericsson P990i and the Nokia N95. Different beasts for different purposes?
Read on in the full article.
A nice comparision, but Michell seems more inclined towards the N95.
A more fitting comparison, according to me, would be the N95 and the upcoming P1i. Steve, any chance of getting that done??? 🙄
What the P1 has got: touchscreen, half QWERTY keyboard, business card reader and lots of RAM.
What the P1 hasn't got: profiles, call recording, alarm when turned off, barcode reader, free map app with pre-downloadable maps.
