Nokia N85 Review

Nokia N85

Most of you probably are fans of Nokia and this is by rights as the Finnish-based company manufactures one of the most durable handsets with good performances. The NSeries are best-known around the world thanks to the N70, N80, and my favorite, the N95 8GB. However, Nokia launched other newer and better versions like N73, N82, or the N96.

The latest handset to show-up on Nokia’s lineup is the N85 which is also a dual-slider like the N95 8GB or the N96. Like always, this dual-slider handset was welcomed by the public, even if it’s because of the design. The N85 is smaller therefore more maneuverable than the N95.

The N85 comes with a full list of specs including 3.6Mbps HSDPA, EDGE/GPRS, A2DP Bluetooth, WiFi, built-in GPS, FM Transmitter, N-Gage gaming, TV-Out, 3.5 mm headphone jack, USB 2.0 and an OLED screen which is better in color, contrast and it also saves more battery than conventional TFT LCD screens.

Also, the N85 comes with two cameraphones, one in the front for video calls, and the other is a 5-megapixel camera with Carl-Zeiss lens, autofocus, and dual-LED flash assist. The Nokia N85 is based on Symbian v9.3 OS, and I should forget to mention the microSD card slot which supports up to 8GB of memory.

There are a few more things to say as Nokia claims a battery life of 7 hours talk time, 25 hours music playback, and about 363 hours in standby mode. Well, the N85 is cheaper than the N96, however, I don’t really which one to choose between these two handsets. What do you think?
