I heard the video playback was 30fps not 15fps.
That's why I LOVE this phone.

N80-lover:
1. Battery is normal for a symbian phone though. Just recharge it every night and you wont have any problems.
2. Whats the point in dual speakers on a PHONE? It' not like you'll hear the difference between stereo and mono when the speakers are right next to eachother.
4. Thats true, but so far there are no other phones with optical zoom in Europe or US so I don't see this as a missing feature.
5. Not true. Pictures = 20x zoom, videos = 5x zoom.
6. I don't THINK that's true, but I can't be sure.
7. I seriously think I recall hearing it was 30fps. Maybe I'm wrong though.
8. This is actually an advantage to me! Remember, with a cover protecting the lens you can't take paparazzi's of girls! hehe
9. Advantage. Coz because of the normal lens it has vibration! Besides have you seen the photos it can take? It's AMAZING with a big A!! trust me you wont feel like its missing.
10. UPnP like the other guy said.
11. All symbians have hands-free I think.
12. Free 3rd party software.
13. It is the smallest 3G smartphone in the world. Even smaller than N70. Why are you complaining?
14. 3.5 jack accesory comes with the device when you buy it.
15. I have no idea... I guess it's true.
16. Looks friendly to me but can't be sure. Out of the reviews I've seen, I have never seen anyone report this as a problem.
17. Dunno. I Don't think that's a problem though. Which phones can?

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Invincible maybe you should change your name to Unbelieveable.

10mp with 20x Optical zoom and 25Gb by next year? Don't think so sunshine, and if you really believe this maybe you should change your name to Easyfoolable!

im not dreaming man, nokia will soon make a phone which has all the features of the n90, n91 and n92 including the n80 features, im saving my money for when that phone comes out, it should come out by the end of next year, i think nokia will name it the n100 and it will cost £350 and the colours the phone will be available in will be black or red. Its features will include a 10 megapixel camera with autofocus, carl zeiss lens, optical zoom x 20 and digital zoom x 50, digital radio and tv which you can watch for free, bluetooth version 12.0, infrared, stereo speakers, internal memory of 25 gigabytes with memory card slot, wifi, upnp technology like in the n80, screen colours will be 32 million with a resolution of 800 x 500 pixels, video will be recorded in dvd quality and display size will be 4 inches. N100 will be the phone of the century

I love this phone, but people should no that the following features are missing (need to be clarified too, maybe some of these features are available and not missing)

1- Battery life is not good or Average

2- No Dual Speakers

3- No Camera Auto Focus

4- No Camera Optical Zoom (only Digital Zoom)

5- Digital Zoom is only for Pictures and not for Video

6- Picture Editor available only and no Video Editor

7- Video fram/Second is only 15 at 352x288 and not 30 frames/second

8- Camera is exposed and not covered (can get dirty)

9-Standard Camra Lens and not the good "Carl Zeiss"

10- No "TV out" to see pictures/video taken on TV (like in Samsung D600)

11- no built-in hands free

12- no PDF viewer

13- Mobiles looks small but in fact its THICK

14- no 3.5mm audio Jack

15- Alarm is not repeatable

16- Keypad not friendly according to one of the reviews

17- chargable through USB ? (yes or no !!)

For people who know more than me, can you please clarify what I have wrote? Any mistake I made?

Two questions,why N80 doesnt have?
-16mil colour display, like N92?
-Carl Zeis lens,like N90?

I guess for comercial reasons,
just wait untill its succesor (N81?) has all this,
but again imagine with what Sharp will come up to, two years from now;-)
