That one is rumor, only has pictures, this is real one, Nokia just have announced it.

If this one has all the features that N93 has(30fps VGA video recording and optical zoom.), i prefer this one~ rclxm9.gif But i don't think it will has them and i think this one is more affordable.

the features just blows me away... guess the price wud be sky high...

N80, N73, N93... omg! nokia wanna solidify its world no.1 title again! and this time, the fons are so superb! NOT CRAPPY FONS ANYMORE!

though the design not as classy as N70 or N80 (lack the chrome plating), but it is slim and light! the features are really good with this kind of size! i think it wud hit 3k+ upon release. altho i luv it, but i think i cant afford the price...better stick back to K800i (and oso hope this fon's price wud not be too overwhelming!)

i don thin N7x series will cost more than RM3k at 1st launch. biggrin.gif because it is the lowest end in N series.jus my opinion la.

N73, directly compete with k800.
both phone function is almost same.
i don't know which wil win ?
both have their pro nd cons..
if i can afford both of it. i wil choose n73 over k800 to avoid se joystick problem. that's all.

Seems like this one is far away from N93... i mean the features. sweat.gif
All its function is similiar with N90 except N90 wins the screen resolution and lose the camera pixels.
Agree with Rayz, N70 looks better than this one. But the features...

Just ignore xander83, he is famous for making craps sweat.gif and he just have been suspended for 3 days by mod rclxms.gif . That button is for multimedia, like N70. I don't know about the detail but i think it is a shortcut key to enter the gallery or something like that.

Well, for me, the Nseries design had been really attractive so far but this N73 design does go back to those that are simple....Anyway, the camera is so cool with carl zeiss lense...so anyone knows whether this phone here has vibra?well,personally i dont like that camera cover...looks so weird there..

and just hope the battery last..=P
but with all those pixels...wouldn't it be slower when taking pictures..
i'm having lag problems when taking pic even with a 2.0mp n70...
imagine 3.2......

Just ignore xander83, he is famous for making craps  sweat.gif  and he just have been suspended for 3 days by mod rclxms.gif . That button is for multimedia, like N70. I don't know about the detail but i think it is a shortcut key to enter the gallery or something like that.

from M-R:
Spec wise, The handset is pushed away for Nokia N80 as much as possible, which carries a 3 Mpix camera, although without auto-focus and with lens of plastic. I suppose they will manage to provide sharp distinction in quality of taken shots of these two devices. The N80 is more likely to remain a business model, since it supports WiFi connectivity. Both phones run one and the same Symbian 9.1, S60 3d Edition. The strength of the N73 is similarity to Nokia 3250, Nokia N91 hardware wise and presence of a CPU working at 314 Mhz on-board, while Nokia N80 is powered by an out-of-date CPU type, providing only 214 Mhz. Therefore those who are not interested in WiFi connectivity options should peer at this solution, furthermore the device houses two stereospeakers on its upper rim.

<a faster processor!!!>

The model will hit the stores in August without any delays, in fact, all current Nseries handsets did - the platform is well-studied, so there are no obstacles left to release it on time. The model will be sold at the price of 450-500 Euro in three possible color schemes - silver grey/deep plum, frost white/metallic red and frost white/mocha brown.

<whoa! 500 euros is cheap man!!! might consider this fon if the price aint too high here! and in august summore! cant wait for its release!>

though N73 is functionally more powerful, K800i is prettier and classier. the cam cover though K800i more stylish, but it's more protruding and bulging compared to the almost flat cam cover of N73. yet, i love the huge screen of N73!!!

i don't know much about vibration spoiling the lense, but i think carl zeiss lense and normal lense the difference is just CZ lense is glass whereas normal lense is plastic.

IMO CZ lense is just a marketing ploy.

if you were in a debate, you would be disqualified because you forfeit your statement...

omgwtf..obviously iv already look at pictures taken by both camera's but to my eyes(I MIGHT HAVE EYE PROBLEM WHO KNOWS) its the same..

by just saying "test see the sample pics at k800 thread", is so redundant..

the statement "test see the sample pics at k800 thread" doesnt prove your point "no la.. he compared it wif k800..
k800 cam is better"

2.5k starting price i estimate...coz it'll be higher priced then starting price of n91. buy it after a few months then the price will reduce drastically and become constant again after a while.

i dont mind n93(intuitive way of using the phone...flipping the screen like how they show in the promo pics thumbup.gif )
but n90 isnt that fantastic...just a normal flip phone,with the added twist laugh.gif

Me would have to disagree on that, my collegue bought k800i and it dissapointed him, k800i only take good picture in bright light ( just like most cameraphone does). At night, he can still see noise (serious noise). He changed to N71 now, coz N71 take better videos.

hopefully, less than rm2k for an ap set.. *keeps fingers crossed*

Why cheaper than N80? Because it's not a slider phone? Because it doesn't have wifi? But this one camera got Carl Zeiss lens and Autofocus wor...but i also hope it's not that expensive

carls zeiss is just a marketing strategy employed by nokia to attract more customers...the lens does not give any noticable advantages as compared to a good plastic lens eg:k750i vs n90
i doubt the form factor influences the price tongue.gif ... n80 is for business, while the n73 is focused on lifestyle and casual photography.and looking at nokia pricing of the n series, the higher the model number, the more expensive the price.. tentative prices of the n73 is around 450-500usd sweat.gif

that was the n90
who knows n73 can surprise us?

any1 visited the n73 site, quite nice, the gallery by justin guariglia quite nice, on shaolin. smile.gif even tho pics are not @ full resolution.

http://www.nokia.com/nseries/index.html#product,n73

i've tested the k800, imo, not really that impressive for the camera counterpart even for day shots. my 2cents.

SE used the Cyber-shot branding as a marketing tool,
just like Nokia used the Carl Zeiss marketing campaign.

Well, Nseries is definitely pretty darn expensive if the spec is good but wait for like a month and u will see a sudden drop in price..Look at the N80 as an example.So i can see many people wanted to buy this phone though...

Really interested in this as well..Too bad it doesnt have the wifi.Wasted there..if not, i can consider this between the N80 or this here...

1.8-2k is acceptable.
However I think it will be slightly more than that. (probably 2.2k as said by amunriel)

N73 or N80 or N93?

N80
Shape = Bulky with slider design
Price = Normal (RM2400 ~ RM2500 for Zitron )
Spec = Got Wifi and High Resolution with 30fps for video but with no AF

N73
Shape = Juz Nice with candy bar design
Price = Normal (RM2250 ~ RM2300 for Zitron )
Spec = Got Stereo Speaker and AF with CarlZeiss Lens but with 15fps for video and no wifi

N93
Shape= Very Bulky with 360 degrees turnable clamshell design
Price = Very Expensive ( RM3000 ~3100 for Zitron << GUESSING should be around there)
Spec = Perfect Phone

So which would you consider? BTW Does AF affect the quality of Video?

N80
Shape = Bulky with slider design
Price = Normal (RM2400 ~ RM2500 for Zitron )
Spec = Got Wifi and High Resolution with 30fps for video but with no AF

N73
Shape = Juz Nice with candy bar design
Price = Normal (RM2250 ~ RM2300 for Zitron )
Spec = Got Stereo Speaker and AF with CarlZeiss Lens but with 15fps for video and no wifi

N93
Shape= Very Bulky with 360 degrees turnable clamshell design
Price = Very Expensive ( RM3000 ~3100 for Zitron << GUESSING should be around there)
Spec = Perfect Phone

So which would you consider? BTW Does AF affect the quality of Video?

I believe there's already a comparison between k800 and N93 in gsmarena.com
Verdict : N93 loses in terms of photo quality. Hard to believe but its true.

Update : here u go
http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_n93_photo-review-100.php


I saw the N73 yesterday at Midvalley Megamall. First impression is that the keypad is way too tiny and cramped together. If I were to compare the physical aspects of it, I think k800 has a slight edge over it. The k800 just looks better IMO.

I've been eyeing for this phone for two months already, can't wait to get myself one now. I'll buy it together with N71 (for my gf) so that we can video call each other rclxm9.gif since Maxis is offering free video calls till November rclxms.gif . Btw, I heard this phone doesn't come with vibrator function, can anyone here clarify this? unsure.gif

Yup is already in Sungei Wang Plaza area..but be careful buying there bcose they love to mark up the price. To me, it is up to which phone can satisfied your needs and also your budget ??? Sonyericsson phone is good especially their camera but the price always drop so fast compared than Nokia...

N73 is the best phone nokia ever made ...

Advantages-

with huge and sharp 2.4Inch Qvga screen ,
top and bottom stereo speakers ..even louder than K750i and k800i ,
3.2Megapixel withautoforus ..pictures even better than 3.0 cybershot camere(seeing is beliving)
Symbian OSV9.1 platform with many coming software and games,


Disadavantages

Led Flash ..but still got flash better than nothing
no wifi
joystick is boring ..better use Navigation pad


still this is the best phone ever made from Nokia ..since i used K750i before ...and i must stick to this phone for long time rclxm9.gif

Hmmm may be you guys have to confirm the vibration from the shop before saying it. Because as far as i know the Carl Zeiss optics lens is vibration sensitive, and if i never hear worngly the sales girl actually told us that there is no vibration.

PS: the Carl Zeiss optics lens is no cheap!!!

According to gsmarena.com, the N73 do have vibration, same as the N93.. Maybe N90 is the first Nokia Carl Zeiss, scared the vibration would spoilt the fragile lens.. After a year Nokia has improved hence vibration is backed again! smile.gif

As long as there's access point you can enjoy broadband internet surfing with your mobile set already.

The difference is, you've to pay approx hundred for a month or 1 cent per KB if you use 3G/Edge

You pay nothing extra if you connect to wifi.

Well, i think the N92 is definitely not launched by Nokia yet..so i doubt he will have stock in hand for the N92 unless they are prototype..Besides, i truly doubt he will have them at 2k..

btw what is wifi?what is good about wifi?does N93 got wifi?

jus my 2 sen icon_idea.gif flex.gif

i show you an example of how useful wifi is..

(assuming you have a router in your home,)
1)you are watching tv,and a commercial comes on...bored,you feel like surfing the net...all you need to do,is enable your wifi,and surf...forget the pc

2)you're on bed,cannot sleep...so you just switch on wifi,surf kejap.

3)you're in front of the tv,nothing to watch...using wifi,you can stream videos off of your PC,and play them on your phone! couple this with n93's tv out,and you can watch your shows that are on the pc,on the tv!*

4)you got some apps in the pc,forgot to install in your phone...instead of going to the pc,pasang bluetooth,unzipping the app,sending it over to your phone,bla bla bla,all you need to do is via wifi,browse your com,transfer the app to your phone,and install.easy cool.gif *


*pc must be on smile.gif

(lets say you go out,lepak)
1)sitting on a bench,nothing to do...you flip on wifi,find out theres a wifi connection nearby...so tumpang,can surf the net for awhile(i do this alot whistling.gif )

2)instead of lugging a laptop around,you can easily do your assignments/etc on your phone,and research via wifi at most starbucks outlets

once you have a taste of wifi,it's hard to go back.. sweat.gif at least for me,it is laugh.gif

not forgetting S60 thumbup.gif  rclxm9.gif

i show you an example of how useful wifi is..

(assuming you have a router in your home,)
1)you are watching tv,and a commercial comes on...bored,you feel like surfing the net...all you need to do,is enable your wifi,and surf...forget the pc

2)you're on bed,cannot sleep...so you just switch on wifi,surf kejap.

3)you're in front of the tv,nothing to watch...using wifi,you can stream videos off of your PC,and play them on your phone! couple this with n93's tv out,and you can watch your shows that are on the pc,on the tv!*

4)you got some apps in the pc,forgot to install in your phone...instead of going to the pc,pasang bluetooth,unzipping the app,sending it over to your phone,bla bla bla,all you need to do is via wifi,browse your com,transfer the app to your phone,and install.easy cool.gif *
*pc must be on smile.gif

(lets say you go out,lepak)
1)sitting on a bench,nothing to do...you flip on wifi,find out theres a wifi connection nearby...so tumpang,can surf the net for awhile(i do this alot whistling.gif )

2)instead of lugging a laptop around,you can easily do your assignments/etc on your phone,and research via wifi at most starbucks outlets

once you have a taste of wifi,it's hard to go back.. sweat.gif at least for me,it is laugh.gif

Very depend on the wi-fi provider/wi-fi transmitter at the area..
Some wi-fi location giving free for use..Some is subscription service, so u hv to pay.. likes TM HotSpot and AirZed are examples u need to pay for the service.. Starbuck using TimeCel wi-fi give u free to use..

And also, some office/house may use wi-fi at their place and if they didnt set password on their wi-fi, then you may connect on to it FREE..

While you can install all the funky stuff on your S60 set, it could be a bad thing as well.

1. Smartphones are generally slower than normal mobile phones, especially when too much applications are installed.
2. Battery consumption is relatively higher as smartphones requires more processing power.
3. Practicality is an issue. How many people need to use PDF viewer and video player on a 2-inch screen anyway? To me, most probably it's something that NICE TO HAVE but not necessary a MUST HAVE.

first two is a non issue,in my case since even the 3230's supposedly weak battery has never died on me before.

and the third,well,normal phones can do that as well smile.gif (talking bout videos...im not too sure about pdf huh.gif ...)

btw,not all non s60 phones are fast tongue.gif
the nokia 6101,for example,is slooowwwww.... shocking.gif shakehead.gif doh.gif

for a s40 phone,thats bad.. laugh.gif

Why N73 doesnt has nice colour combo... like N91 and N80 etc... N73 colours are juz... sweat.gif
But still, the overall specs are too nice to resist, will get it when its price drops till RM1k~1.3k (12months to go?).
I never buy phones at the first few months they release, cuz not rich enough... sad.gif
Will get a new phone at September or October then start collect money for N73, then my fund raises, its price drops, at the point my fund = its price, i'll get it. sweat.gif tongue.gif laugh.gif

OI just want to know how about the VIDEO quality? I used N70 and very happy with the video. Now I changed to N80 and the video SUCKS! I hope that someone can confirm or give sample that N73 video recording is as good as N70. I really hope so. (I'm trying not to buy the expensive N93). Video like N70 is enough!)

I wonder when n73 price will drop, may be when the n74, n75... come out. I never use a Symbian phone before, thinking of getting a better one for a try.

Honestly, to me RM 2xxx is too expensive for owning a handphone, so do many forummers here. But good thing always makes ppl hard to resist. smile.gif

Skin oil is preset at all time on your fingertips, these are the basis of lifting fingerprints used by crime scene investigators. With the touchscreen exposed to to the not-so-clean air around us, dust and other airborne particles will cling and stick to the oils present on fingertips during pressing on the screen.

Which is more convinient, pressing an ACTUAL button on an ACTUAL keypad, than having to fish around for stylus, or priming your fingers with fingernails ready to poke at touchscreens? Which is why i dont really prefer PDA phones. Other options would voice dial but that is a hit-or-miss affair sometimes.

We're going OT with this, the reason why phone manufacturers stick with keypads is for the obvious reason: it is a phone, not a PDA.We dial numbers with keypads not virtual keys on touchscreens.

Do note that all S60 3rd Edition devices have one inherent problem. The sms sending process gets slower and slower with usage. In some instances, after pressing the send button, the phone gets "stalled" for about 1 min during which u can't do anything with it. The only solution so far now is reseting the phone *#7370# but the problem recurs eventually. I've already reseted my N80 once. I'm just holding out for the next firmware release, and if it still doesn't resolve this issue, I'm definitely selling my N80. No more Nokia's for me. If u think about it, paying RM 2.6K and getting a phone with these problems is totally unacceptable.
Go to howardsforums.com and u'll see lots of ppl experiencing this problem. Sigh..

It seems like many of your posts are really pro-S60, and it's a major point for you when you compare different phones.

I'm okay with it. But the point is, not all people really need it doh.gif There's no point paying for something and ended up not utilising it. As I said before, how many people would choose to open .DOC and .PDF document in a 2-inch screen when 17" monitor computer is everywhere nowadays? (I'm not saying that's all a Symbian phone can do, just merely giving an example)

To those who don't really need it, it might be a burden as well, as welwitchia mentioned, some models are suffering slow speed when sending SMS and you've to admit that it's not stable as OS-less handsets.

So IMO it depends on personal preference. For you S60 maybe is a great advantage but maybe for some, they purposely don't want to buy NOkia handsets just because of S60

Just my 2 cents. No sarcasm attempted smile.gif

^ The N80 has only one speaker. I thought the N73 has 3 speakers? 3D ringtones too tongue.gif

Anyway, i personally find the N73 a tad "ugly". Its gives me the feeling of "big head, small body"..u get what i mean.

I'll stick with the N80 for the time being. The screen is just too good to miss.

Agree, the screen-keypad ratio kinda reminds me of nk3230 or k800. A common problem when a candy bar phone needs to have big screen.

But my main problem is actually the back side which looks really plasticky (especially the red colour one)

Hmm..having said all that, I think i'm gonna take a good look at the phone when i get to the shops. If i like the feel, I think I might actually sell away the N80. I like snapping photos and so far the N80 has been a huge dissapointment..well, for me at least. When taking macro pics, i have to make sure I'm at a correct distance.. to close or far, the shots end up blurry. Duh, its getting a bit tiresome already tongue.gif

Hi, to the owners of N73, does your phone keep having a blue flashing light when u leave it unused for awhile?
What's the light for? Is it ok for it to keep flashing?

OT and abit irrelevant,but not everyone has a computer...(you'd be amazed how many people in my class dont have a computer sweat.gif )
and a laptop isnt very cheap..

ofcourse Doc and PDF files arent the only things you can do with a s60 phone...GPS is also another thing hardly ANYBODY uses sweat.gif
alot of people seem to think only PDAs can do it,but thats far from the truth..

*refer to my 2nd reply*
as for stability issues,imo,it depends on the user...
cos not everything gets deleted when you uninstall a program...much like a computer,many small things are left in the phone..
so if you dont delete those things,you get an unstable phone laugh.gif

as you all know nokia is just trying to improve it's sound quality but no point at all ...music quality for earphones is totally lack of bass but the sounds of it's stereo speaker is much better than in E680i moto phones ...and when i compare it with my K750i ...sound from from k750i seems to more louder and sharper but nokia 73 added some extra sound from dual dimension and better i think ..but you have to test it yourself for confirmation tongue.gif

Wow! already 21 pages for N73? Nice! Good to know there's a few early adopters here besides me. rclxms.gif Just got mine two weekends ago.

With regards to the audio quality, it loses out to K750i. Even my K700i sounds overall clearer + richer. N73 tends to have slight noise and distortion when u crank the volume up but it's acceptable and within my tolerance. Just that i'm too used to SE's audio quality. tongue.gif

Besides that, everything else is awesome! Menu navigation is fast/smooth as compared to the former S60v2 or older Symbian OSes. I love shooting. Pic shots are good. (probably can even beat Canon's 350D after rescaled to 4R...pun intended...hahaha) I love the back lens slider. It feels solid whenever u open/close it. Oooh...the rubbery feel biggrin.gif

I find the keypad a little too small and crampy for my liking but typing SMS on it is smoother compared to K700i.

Another wonderful thing is the battery. It can last me 3 full days without recharging + 3G activated! (average 15~20 calls/sms per day, few video&pic shots, light 3G surfing and a couple of apps/games. thumbup.gif The 1100 mAh batt supposedly the same used for Nokia Communicator series. No wonder the batt performance is superb! Heard this from the guy who sold me this baby. For me, phone is 'nothing' without a good batt. Btw, N80 sux at this. biggrin.gif

Actually I was also in dilemma earlier deciding between this phone and N80/K800i. Well, luckily i made the right choice. icon_rolleyes.gif Anyway, it's up to what you want in a phone. Guess this serves my purpose. A 'smart-phone' for a 'smart-buyer' tongue.gif

Yup. Observe whether there's Nokia hologram stickers on the phone & batt. Check it out from Nokia's site: http://www.nokia-asia.com/nokia/0,8764,78427,00.html

N93 got 3x optical zoom and 20x digital zoom
N73 got 20x digital zoom only
Carl Zeiss is just a brand of the lens
which is known to be good in quality
( for my sense , it is juz a sales gimmick )
In night or dark situation , K800i pics quality win N73
but in other situations n73 pwn all
you can go www.gsmarena.com and read tht review


================
Where can i get N73 screen protector?
and how much? anyone bought it?

Those of u who is using the N73. Take a look at the photos u took from this phone carefully. I just noticed that on mine, the top and bottom left of the photos are considerably "blurrer" than the rest of the picture. Good thing i bought a Zitron set and had it replaced when i brought it back to the shop. Now my replaced set has no such problem.

Where is your HP shop? If its out of Klang Valley then hard lah...

I didnt know my 3310 mini pouch can fit my N73, LOL. The leather pouch which I bough is a little bit to rought for my N73 so I just my cotton pouch 1st till can get a tranparent crystal casing. Maybe we should buy those cloth pouchs leh the girls always use to keep their phones. LOL. I know its sounds a bit gay but well since we dont want out phones to get scrath my as well use if for the time being. Plan to get one ASAP. If not mistaken only cost around RM3.

I am a proud owner of N73 for a week now. Untill now there isnt much of a problem on the phone nor did i find it lagging. Either that or i somehow expected it since its a smart phone and it takes longer to load a program. The Picture quality is near perfect. admitaly you cant really take very very good pix. but this camera is near perfect.
The speaker is not bad. its dual speaker and top side. Although its not as loud as i like it though.
I got a screen protector for it for RM 10 at a pasar malam in SS2 yesterday. Currently looking into buying one of those lady like pouch to store the phone. Although it might look a bit gay, i am not risking scratches for the phone.

Have you guyz found any wallpaper or theme for it? The N73 theme given is not bad, but i am looking for something a bit more abstract and light.

Go OUG buy, my friend bough 3 ladies pouch for RM10, but I dont really know the exact location to get it. He gave me one red 1. ts gay but for the sake of my beloved wife N73, I will do anything for her from getting any scrathes, LOL tongue.gif

Haih why they give us 0.3MP for the front cam? Should give us at least 1.3 so its clear lah.

LOL so no chance to take sneak photos of leng luis. Haih. BTW do u guys know how to change wallpaper to themes? I want my themes to be my wallpaper so it looks cool like my friends N80. He uses his themes as a wallpaper, beggar dont want to teach me.... sad.gif

I tried to re-set, but I lost some icons and the antivirus thingy. I think I really need to take it back to the service centre tomorrow.

what reset did you perform?
a soft reset or hard format?

soft reset only resets your settings,not your software/c drive...

try a hard format and see what happens,whether the problem is still there...

try this:
off the phone.hold *+3+green call key all together,and on the phone.

the phone should do a hard format(it works on s60 os 8 and below,not so sure bout os9.1 blush.gif ) but you can try smile.gif

HI, i brought it to the nokia centre this afternoon. Waited 2 hrs. Then, they said no antivirus. Apparently, the earlier one which was on my phone must have been from the distributor. Also only one game (my earlier one had two). Sigh.....Right after I got my phone, the screen went blank again. The girl played around with my phone, but since she didn't encounter any probs, she said my phone is ok. I hope it is....*keeping fingers crossed*
