Sony Ericsson P990 Preview: The New King Of Smartphones?

October 18th, 2005 • Related • Filed Under

All About Symbian have a very brief review of the P990. It’s not very long, but it tells me all I need to know whether or not to get this phone or the Nokia N91:

  • It’s bigger than the P900 = Bad
  • The screen is virtually the same size = Good
  • Although the flip-closed UI has been improved in UIQ3, the phone is still designed to be used with the flip-open= Bad

Looks like it’s going to be the N91 for me.

    I had a P800 then a P900 then a P910i. P900 was a great leap forward, P910 less so but I wanted the 1Gb memory stick. I always thought that it would be my ideal phone if it had 3g & a decent camera (plus maybe a forward facing one for video calls). So I'm a bit hacked off that they've halved the screen real estate for a keyboard I don't need. I want to see as much of a web page as possible when browsing at near broadband speeds. I'll get one but I'll hanker for the proper version. N91? A one handed phone is great as a phone but hopeless as a PDA. P990 sans keyboard? That would be the King of Smartphones!
