Can't decide between these two at the mo? Currently have an N73 and do like my Nokia's but like the look of the LG.

Will be ditching my mini ipod for 1 of these so multimedia is important, camera not so much.

The touch screen of the LG appeals to me a lot, after having a dabble with the iPhone this weekend it appears to be the next best thing.

Any opinions?

LG is an amazing phone, but given your circumstances/requirements the n81 is far better suited to you

Is the touch screen actually any good? All it ever did was piss me off on the Samsung

On the samsung, if you were writing a message and you accidently brushed the 'c' key, you're fucked! Piece of shit.

What are the differences between the N95 8Gb and N81 Gb apart from the jog wheel, size and GPS?

IMO N95 is mnore of a 'business phone', N81 is more of a 'media phone'

Just spoke to o2.

I'm now entitled to upgrade, I currently pay £15 a month for 200mins and 500 texts which is due to go back up to £30 a month in February when my year discount ends. (They gave me half price line rental for a year because I threatened to leave but took them 3 months to arrange it! )

They've said I can have the N81 or LG Viewty for £39.99 which will tie me into another 12 month contract that goes up to £30 a month after Feb or £100 credit to my account and no handset

You reckon I can do better?

ive got the viewty and i can categorically say its the best phone ive ever owned, had a few touch screen fones.

but this one is the best so far, the touch screen is so responsive hardly mis-press anything, its quite small compared to wat u wud think, and is very sturdy, made with metal and no plasticky rubbish, camera is really reaally gd, best ive had and ive had n95 and k850i

id say go with the viewty as its a great phone
