Only thing that might attract people is the qwerty keyboard if you ask me. However, I have the N95 which I think is just awesome.

Lol @ grew up... it seems like u went a bit backward bru...
More like 3megapixels backward on the camera side, u subtracted GPS from your life and to top it off the P990 looks like a brick :)
 
Hey guys

Firstly I do agree the Nokia N95 is an awesome phone - it is after a long time that Nokia has come out with a decent phone. I do like the P990i has some excellent features also to note the Nokia N95 is a recent phone and this day an age they will come out with a new model in a few weeks by some other competitor on the market and both these phones will be old. It is all about what you want from a phone and how easy it makes your life......

Years ago I had a Motorola Accompli 008 with a touch screen. Does that make it king?:rolleyes:

You're loosing it kingrob. Don't worry, one day SonyEricsson will make something better than the N95. But for now, just accept that the N95 is KING.;):D

Listen to what Caspa said, I mean, he owned a P990i and now have a N95. He's got first hand experience with both phones.
 
My P990i was stolen, and i wont lie, i loved it to bit's, it worked perfectly for me. But the N95 is way ahead in 1000 diff ways
 
Guyz... bottom line.. The N95 is more like a toy with alot of bells n whistles, whereas the P990 is a "specialist" touch screen, PDA style handset. Frankly, I think the N95 is for boys.. the men get the king! :p
PS. Don't take it 2 personally tho, that's just my opinion! ;)

Yeah like a Ferrari compared to a golf, a Cadillac compared to a VW Beetle. One is class all over and the other just snazzy-sassy. You need both.
 
Considering that the P990i was released in June 2006, it's not bad if people still would like to compare it to the N95 - just shows you how far ahead the P990i was of its competition. :)

And today it's still one of the best smartphones money can buy.

No opinion on the phones, but I have to say that I would rather have a beetle over a cadillac. Horrible yank cars those.

Dude, an opinion about a material object is totally different 2 that of a human. So calm down dude ;) No offense intended :D
 
look at the drastic price drop of N95 overseas and I wonder why.......BTW I don't own any Nokia or SE phone currently.....I use HTC
 
If a cellphone does not have HSDPA at 3.6 Mbs it is no good. You will not realise this until you have used one at 1.2 Mbs+, and you will cry when the networks are upgraded to 3.6 Mbs from the current 1.8 Mbs.
