Nokia N85 User Reviews

The Nokia N85 has a very sleek design and is a decent size to use, although the number pad is a little bit slow so it sometimes can be difficult to press the right key. The battery life is lower than expected and sometimes there can be some electrical errors with it where some applications may occasionally fail.

However, the vast number of features that the phone has means it is excellent value, particularly if you like to play games because it comes from the N-Gage series.

This phone would be excellent, but I have had two of these so far and they keep locking up on me. The feature that I find most useful is the FM transmitter, put it in the car and tune the radio to the correct frequency and it plays all of your music, this is brilliant. Nice compact phone with great 5mp camera.

The Nokia N85 mobile phone is a sumwhat old school style phone, you wont find a touchscreen here, though of course a lot of people like the fact that there is no annoying fiddly touchscreen controls to deal with and just a basic keypad.

When you boot the phone your greeted by the truly superb OLED screen that shows fantastic colour and crispness, the Symbian operating system on the other hand is not quite as impressive looking somewhat dated compared to others but it still remains quick and snappy allowing you to access all the phone features easily .

Now for the features the standout is the 5mp camera that takes great images for a phone camera, far above something you would see on the iPhone, the video the phone shoots also isnt bad, not up to a dedicated camera by any means but not bad.

So should you buy this phone, I say Yes if you can find it at a decent price as the updated N86 is now released which features a better camera and updated operating system.

Great phone but not the best well made phone I've ever used. Sound quality is not too bad could be better. Games and N-gage features are very good also the internet is very easy to use although there has been a few hidden charges. Would definitely recommend the phone.

This phone is amazing, it does everything, and well! Firstly it is a good phone with clear call quality and great speakerphone. But so much more - it is now my main camera, with a 5.0 megapixel capacity and a great zoom and video with great picture quality making it plenty capable, plus easy capacity to store and send pictures via text or email, or even upload them.

Speaking of the web, it has a great browser, with 3.5G making it fast, and wifi making it even faster! The screen is excellent, large, bright, clear...and it even has and accelerometer so it orientates to suit!

When you add in a great music player, normal earphone jack for easy listening, great stero speakers built in, GPS, google maps and Nokia maps and push email and games including Ngage, and good battery life and reliability and so many apps to add on on the symbian platform, its unbeatable in my opinion - and I didnt think i liked Nokia's!
