The Nokia Sea Ray is certainly a move in the right direction from the developers but when you put it up against a phone as good as the iPhone 4 it shows that Nokia still have a little way to go before they can seriously challenge the top end of the market.

The iPhone 4 from Apple is regarded by many as the best smartphone ever released. Months afters its launch the device remains the handset of choice for hoards of smartphone fans all over the world. What we thought we could do here is compare this relative veteran of the phone world against one of the young guns in the form of the Nokia Sea Ray and see if the iPhone 4 still justifies it position at the top of the smartphone tree.
A great place to start would be to look at the screens that are on offer with both phones. The Retina display on the iPhone 4 is known as the highest quality available so does the new Nokia come anywhere eclipsing it in this department? The simple answer is no. With a resolution of 960 x 540 the Retina screen still remains some way ahead of the competition. This high quality is displayed on a 3.5 inch panel that uses IPS technology to create wide viewing angles and great colour reproduction. It seems that the new Nokia is likely to offer a larger screen at around 3.9 inches and this display is likely to be AMOLED technology. The company has a tradition for producing good display but at this moment in time it is unlikely to rival what the superb iPhone 4 can offer. An area where the Sea Ray may have more joy is in the camera department. The Nokia N8 offered one of the best cameras to date and some of this technology has been carried over to the new phone. An 8 million pixel camera looks set to be joined by 720P high definition video capture to produce stunning pictures and movies. Whether or not Nokia will offer the renowned Carl Zeiss lens on this model remains to be seen but we can be confident that the phone will offer an outstanding camera facility. The iPhone 4 is certainly no slouch in this area thanks to it 5 mega pixel snapper which despite being a lower resolution than many models compensates by offering one of the best sensors available. Video capture keeps pace with the Nokia by matching its 720P resolution.
When it comes to the operating system software in both of these models it really is hard to fault the iPhone 4. The iOS4 platform that it uses is beautiful in its simplicity with multiple homescreens accessed by simply swiping your finger across the screen. Fans of this model will also be pleased to note that in the autumn the new generation iOS5 software will be made available which boasts over 200 improvements. These changes range from additional camera editing features to a whole new notifications system. The Nokia Sea Ray is the brands first attempt at a Windows based phone and whilst the platform is growing at a very fast rate it is still quite a way off challenging the superb iPhone operating system.
The Nokia Sea Ray is certainly a move in the right direction from the developers but when you put it up against a phone as good as the iPhone 4 it shows that Nokia still have a little way to go before they can seriously challenge the top end of the market.
