N80ie(Bronze), N91 8GB(Black), N73(Silver) Comparison Pics!!

Other than the installed apps there is no real difference. Rumor has it that the wifi was a bit stronger but I never noticed it being any stronger than my E61.
 
Two big reasons for me to move from N73 to n80ie are ..

1) Bad build quality, the case was creaky as hell
2) Camera lag.. It takes ages before the camera is ready to take the pic

Though the battery life on n80ie is not same as N73... I get through my day easily without charging it. I found no issues with firmware, It is pretty stable. Since n80ie doesn't have AF, pics are not as good as N73. But it is pretty acceptabe for me. Macro shots are really good.
Build quality is good on n80ie. no creaks or nothing. Lastly the loudspeaker is good. Music quality is better on n80ie speaker than n73's stereo speakers! N73 gets really loud but I found n80ie speakers to be pleasant!
 
NO...but there has been mention that it will eventually become available on the active standby for current v3's. For now, I had it on my E61 and found it was rather useless unless it was on the active standby. I had an N80ie and it was a very nice feature to toy around with but with so many secure networks it was kind of pointless anyway. It was an interesting tool to test the N80's wifi range but other than that it's nothing more than the $10 wifi finders you can get at compusa.
 
Ya, but what good are those options when your $500+ phone is pretty much a paperweight inside some buildings and malls.

Of course, this has been discussed to death so i guess it's a matter of personal preference.

When push comes to shove however, it has been proven empirically that 850 DOES make a difference though, even in urban areas. So if you're willing to sacrifice coverage for a phone that you like that doesn't support 850, by all means get it. But to say that it provides the same amount of coverage or at least that it doesn't affect you is a pretty bold statement.
 
Yes. N73 battery lasts longer than n80ie.
But, I have a habbit of charging my phones every night so it doesn't matter for me if the battery lasts more than a day!
