~Written by Kuro-hime~

Nokia N86 8MP and Sony Ericsson W995 were both announced in February 2009. Both the phones have already been released. Now, both these phones are quite similar with each other. Really, I'm not kidding. These phones are even popular for the same thing...their high-tech camera.
Therefore, this dual is borned. Let the dual begin.

Hmm...very close competiton. I really can't give the crown to anyone. But after consideration, I'll give the crown to Sony Ericsson because it has a 8.1 megapixel camera.

Wow, another hard competition. But I think people would listen to music on their phones more than talk to it. So the crown goes to Nokia.

I really thought Sony Ericsson will win. Oh well... Anyway, Congratulation, Nokia!!

I really wonder which your choice? IS it Nokia or Sony Ericsson?
