I thought it would be fun to do a little comparison between the old Idou render and the Satio one. Besides the obvious wallpaper change, can you spot other differences? More than 5 even? Eleven in total, kids.
PS. The song playing is also different, yes.
Here’s a quick video showing the main differences between a proper xenon flash on the C901 and the rather crappy LED flash on the C903 – and it of course also shows how superior the C901 is when it comes to image quality. Enjoy! 
I had originally promised you a camera comparison between the Sony Ericsson C905 and the Nikon D80, but I didn’t have time to do this comparison back then. Now, we’re back with a large comparison between the C905 and the Nikon D90 (don’t have the D80 with me currently, so this is the other choice).
About this duel
All the samples shot with the C905 were shot with automatic settings and flash disabled, unless needed. All the samples were shot in high quality JPEG mode. The Nikon D90 was set to aperture priority mode (f/3.8), with flash disabled. All the samples were shot in RAW (uncompressed file format), and converted to TIFF with Adobe Lightroom 2.2 using default conversion settings.
It’s important that you’re aware of the fact that you can completely change how the pictures look when you shoot in RAW format. If they’re too dark, you can simply knock up the exposure in the post-processing without affecting the quality of the picture. This is not possible with pictures shot in JPEG format, which means the C905 is suffering from a severe disadvantage even before we kick off the comparison.
It’s also rather important to point out that there’s no such thing as a perfect RAW converter, and that they’ll all convert the RAW images differently. Most of the unprocessed RAW images, in my opinion, are better than the converted ones, but like I said earlier on, you can always change the look of RAW images.
I will briefly comment on each set of samples, and pick a definitive winner in the end of this post. All the following samples are 100 percent crops of the original pictures. The JPEGs are unprocessed and the RAW images have been converted, as explained earlier on. To cut down on the bandwidth, I’ve decided not to include the full resolution samples. (more…)
I promised that we’d post a duel between Sony Ericsson’s C902 and C905 as well as a Nikon digital SLR camera, which ended up being the ageing 10-megapixel Nikon D80. In the photos there is a significant difference in terms of the size of the elements from the C905 and D80’s photos and the photos produced by the C902. This is caused due to the lower camera resolution on the C902. There’s hardly any visible difference between the C905 and D80 as the C905 shoots in 3:4 format and the D80 shoots in 2:3 format.
The following pictures are 100 percent crops that are straight out of the cameras. All cameras were set to auto, and left to decide everything themselves. We’ll provide full size samples in the upcoming full comparison, but the crops should do for now.
Thought I’d just post a few photos of the G700 and G900 compared to each other, and just for the fun of it, add a W960 in on one of the photos, to show you how small these really are. Keep in mind that W960 was actually quite an improvement over other UIQ phones. As you can see, the G’s are quite alike, with only minor hardware differences.
By request, I’ve snapped a few comparing photos of the Sony Ericsson P1 & W960. Both phones are built on a 99 % equal hardware basis and the software is just about equal as well. Overall, I have to say that the P1 feels extremely well built and puts the W960 to shame, even though W960 is not bad at all!
Enjoy the photos
Stay tuned for my review of the P1 (and I’m sorry about the lousy photo quality).
Here are the Sony Ericsson phones I’ve got back home at this moment. I’ve also got a P990 and waiting for a P1 to arrive, but my uncle is borrowing the P990 until his phone gets fixed. The T650 is Sony Ericsson’s.
Also, I haven’t come around to create the beauty pageant, I was talking about some days ago, but I’ll try to see if there’s time to do it!
In my quest to find out if PhotoFix is any good, I’ve shot some pictures with my new “K810″, and compared the original picture with the one after the processing of PhotoFix.
PhotoFix works quite well in some coincidences, while in others, it totally ruins the picture, making it way to light and easily overexposed.
You can check out 11 examples of PhotoFix usage after the break.
Eldar Murtazin from Mobile-Review has written an article about the changes in the new A200 operating platform in Sony Ericsson phones such as K850 and W910. Here he compares the old A100 with the new one, and shows lots of examples of the new stuff. It’s only available in Russian, so I used Google Translate to translate it. You can find it here! Hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I did!
Update! It’s now available in English, too! Check it out here
Although it’s called Planete-Nokia, SE-employee “Virgile”, uses the forum to post all his pictures of the new and hot Sony Ericsson phones. In this post I’m covering all the latest posted pictures by “virgile”. Read on for the pictures
