As much as it pained me to sign a three year mobile contract when I’ve been without one for so long, I finally made the switch from my Nokia N82 to the iPhone 3GS.
Apple’s interface runs rings around the S60. I think even the most hardcore Nokia fan would concede that point. But where the iPhone falls flat for me is photo quality. I took the attached photo at night under low light, and the phone took forever to focus. Without a dedicated night photography setting like the N82′s, I imagine I’ll primarily shoot in sunny or bright overcast conditions. I don’t miss the flash at all (yet) because I thought the flash on the Nokia usually resulted in blown-out highlights.
I still am a great fan of Nokia phones; I hope to continue participating in the WOMWorld blogger relations program. The N86 looks like a powerhouse. But until Nokia either makes significant changes to the S60 software, I’m going to stick with my iPhone, limited feature set and all.
