Hey guys ! I'm going to buy a new cellphone tomorrow or later this week, so i need your help to choose between two.
I fell in love with the Nokia N95 and the LG viewty.





I compared both to help me in my choice but it's even more difficult. I really like the design of the LG, the touchscreen and the functions, but the N95 got wifi and quad-band.
Which one is the best choice ? (and maybe, why ?)
Tell me if you had some bad experiences with one of them, or what's bad or good in each.

Thanks =)

I couldn't tell you why, but I don't really like Nokia phones...and I ordered the Viewty two days ago so I'm awaiting it's arrival

If you have ATT you have to the get the N95 because the viewty won't work well with the ATT network. If you're with T-mobile it shouldn't matter if it's quad-band or not. Anyways, the N95 is like the godfather of cell phones. However if wifi is the only plus you can find in the N95 for you, then you should go with the Viewty.

choose wisely choose N95!! LGs are poopy.

[flyxme.]

nokia
i like the design and color
LGs die very easily D:

Nokia N95! I dont like LG phones and they aren't that good ..
I think u should go with nokiaa !

[reuniw]

LG. Looks cool and hip.

I have an LG, which I've dropped multiple times. It still works fine. I've never ever had functional problems with my LG.

The N95 is downright ugly. In a couple of months, the design will be replaced by black touch screen Prada/Iphone phones, as they are immensely popular, so you might as well up the trend by getting one now.

my Viewty came in the mail yesterday and it's definitely a beauty! I'm in love

For functionality, I'd pick N95 over Viewty. Yes, Viewty may look like a copycat of the current "fashion", but it lacks a keyboard. Do you know how hard it is to type in numbers on a phone without a keyboard?! Aiyaaa.

If anything i think u should get the N95 8GB since its more updated. I dont like LG because of their functionality.

Copycat??? Duh. LG came out with the black seek touch tone design WAYYY before Iphone, winning multiple design awards for the Prada phone even before Iphone came out. Who copied who? It's funny Iphone can't come out with any successor phones that differ mcuh from the original phone design. I guess they have problems with originality.

Everyone I know who has the Viewty/Prada absolutely loves them. It's a thing of beauty. As for the keypad, I've never heard any complaints about it. I'm getting one myself pretty soon.

Tech-wise: N95 (8GB is better)
Look-wise: Viewty
Overall: N95

what's the use of a pretty phone if the tech. is bad? (IMO)

[I_broke_a_nail!]

I have the viewty now. and i think it sucks.
it freezes up a bit, rarely, but there are still glitches.
It's a huge phone.

The good thing is that the ringtone IS SO LOUD.


The Nokia N95 is probably better.
But Viewty definitely looks better.

I didn't say IPhone anywhere in that sentence. I was talking about the whole rage about "sleek" and "keyboardless" phones.

[MUSIClLOVElLIFE]

I dont like Nokie phones at ALL.
I've had two of them, and I hated both of them>_<

You said it is copycat phone. The sleek, black touch tone happens to be an original design that is totally invented from top to bottom--and for which LG won numerous awards. Exactly who are they copying from?

from day one, I have not had any problems with typing on the Viewty.
with the haptic feedback it is such a breeze to text with the QWERTY keyboard!

Oh quit being prissy about words, jeeze. I was pointing out that it was basically just part of a horrible usability trend.

[kool_buddy]

As mentioned above by some person....
for features: N95
for Looks: LG

as simple as that !! If you are confused then just zero in on what's important for you (features or the look?)

[skwannabe]

Really like everyone has said before, n95 has alot more features compared to the viewty. The n95s prices has gone down due to new phones. If you are going to buy a n95, make sure you get the correct one for you. If you're in the US and want to use 3g, get the n95-3 or n95-4. Difference between n95-3 and n95-4 is that the n95-4 has a bit bigger screen and 8 gig built in. The screen difference is less then a inch but in person, its a big difference. n95-1 and n95-2 are n95s without the US 3g frequencies and the n95-2 has 8 gig built in and with the slightly bigger screen. Good luck in choosing.
