If you want games, dont get the n900.

Re: Sony Ericsson Satio or Nokia n900
 

Guess when you consider buying the satio the camera is really important for you. Unfortunately the cameras of almost all android phones are crappy, except maybe the SE X10. The N900 camera sucks too.

In your case Id wait for the nokia N8. Symbian3 looks quite promising, the structure of the UI may be the same, but if the GUI is really hardware accelerated is should be really smooth (better than android and maemo). But it will be a multimedia handset, web browsing experience will not be stellar with those specs.

Cheers

N900 camera sux too ? huh ?

Re: Sony Ericsson Satio or Nokia n900
 

Between Satio and N900 the choice seems really easy, it took me only a few minutes to rule out the Satio from my shortlist.
N900 is superior in almost everything, even n900's camera clearly does NOT suck, its video function is way better than the Satio's, and a battery of merely 1000 mAh on a smartphone (satio) is a no-go to me.
There are few things that I miss on Maemo/n900 coming from my dear old s60-powered E65 - things that almost go without saying in a fully matured smartphone OS like Symbian (not withstanding that it matured during a period where touchscreens and usability were not top priority for manufacturers). Global device search - Native google maps application - One-handed texting - Java - ...
However, it's important for you to look closely at how you want use your phone, what are the most important things for you to do with it. Each and every phone on the market has its pros and cons, and the things that are inmportant to me are currently done best with the n900...
my N900 top features are:
internet browsing (Micro B plain rules - with flash!)
hardware keyboard
awesome hardware specs
decent camera with lens cover, !with dual led! and !quality video! !with video light! !manual video focus! (try finding these features in any other smartphone....)
Maemo OS
Multitasking

to be continued...

is this a joke thread, n900 compared to satio :)

Well compared to my old n82 pic quality is mediocre. Satio is certainly a lot better. Video is ok though.

The xenon flash makes a huge difference too.

Re: Sony Ericsson Satio or Nokia n900
 

If the n900 had video conferencing with Skype that would be very killer.

Re: Sony Ericsson Satio or Nokia n900
 

Wouldn't say it sucks but it could be better if the n900 had good video recording that would be pretty cool because the quality is good but framerate very bad.

Re: Sony Ericsson Satio or Nokia n900
 

Does the satio have video conferencing?

Re: Sony Ericsson Satio or Nokia n900
 

I wouldn't know but it does have front camera.
