Question: Is there an option in this phone (N82) where you could set the Xennon light to a steady ON when taking video or picture?

BOOOM!!! its started to malfunction everything from power "on" to texting,saving pictures and lots of 'em. and they still no applications installed only 20mp3 file in their so called "2gb" of memry and the worst of all Nokia Care "void" the warranty of the phone. we realy dnt knw what happen, the same thing happend 2 my older sis "exactly" the same thing and yet NO! 3rd prty application or what ever things and they realy take care of their things especialy they'r girls...

this is a fantastic phone i noticed and i seeing this will become much nearer in PC based applications, not as 3G phone but it includes the expanded entertainment media too, this device may come at very handy and compact

@Nokia recycler (stuxxx ELEPHANT)
u r SE owner than u might be knowing while playing high birates song on any SE phone they got stuck some time making sound gurr.... This never happend with my any Nokia some time in SE phones fails to save photo even Though camera is active this never happen with Nokia S40v3/5 also you cant make phone phone call when singnal bar is less than 3 where as Nokia attempts phone call even at 1 bar.
If u r Samsung or Moto fan than i think there is no need for comparison as every one knows about there poor battery, music, there useless UI etc.

The phone is great just that It's got a small flaw/bug. If you put a contact's no, say mobile no as default, it will appear when the person calls.

However if the person calls from his home, (home phone is recorded in the contact as well, but not default) you can't see the person's name. Is there a way to solve this?

Those of you who complain and whine about hanging and freezing on Nokia S60 phones let me just reiterate that in most cases it is caused by installed 3rd party applications and not the OS itself. I have been using Nokia Symbian phones for a very long time now and that has been the case so juts be careful in installing 3rd party applications. I have had several freezing and restarting issues in the past but I am not complaining at all. Why is that? I prefer to use isolated freezing/restarts over a dead phone just like in the case of SE phones. I have a number of friends who are complaining time and again regarding their SE phones bet it high end or entry level.

Please accept the fact that Nokia is not the No.1 cellular phone manufacturer in the world for nothing. As I have been mentioning here time and again Nokia will give you many many years of satisafaction than any other cellular phone manufacturer out there.

Let us leave personal preference and fanboy rants in our closets. Nokia's N82 is a true winner with outstanding features and performance.

perfection of a mobile phone comes from the user themselves. if you're expecting too much on every phone from these manufacturers that have come up with...disappointment is always at hand. be happy and content of what it CAN do and not to drool on the things that it CAN'T. i own NOKIA N73 ME and i'm way satisfied with it. i don't expect it to do wonders but it does things pretty remarkably. then i can say it's 'perfect'.

@ Roger... Lets make it even more simple for you... Why is market sales so low in comparison to Nokia. Or even why did Ericsson sold it mobile division to Sony!!! Errmmm yeah it can't compete. I live Sweden home of Ericsson and I can tell its not doing as good you think. Nuff said! I mean you state some so trivial "wallpaper" OMG!!! please can you please define the word "Wallpaper" in the english dictionary. And regarding batteries someone will develop a high capacity battery. Theres even a 1800mh battery for N95.

@ the recylcer. Why don't you go to garbage and find yourself some tramp. What are you basing you information on BTW. DO you own this handset. Have you ever reviewed this handset for 1 month or so. Before, quoting your nonsensical information based on handsets that you obviously recycle or never own. Please substantiate your findings with actual personal experience and proof. And note: This phone has not crashed in the 2 months I've had this. I'm sure most owners would agree!

N82 will continue to gain a following through solid word of mouth from users who actually own this device. I prefer if a phone generates hype by actual performance, not just fancy marketing. No such thing as a perfect phone, but if the biggest knock is its looks, im content with that! N82 is not a perfect, neither is any other phone there, but N82 is pretty close to it if u consider how much feature packed it is n how well it performs.

Congratulations and celebratlons to Nokia on their magnificent new invention! The phone was only released and announced in November 2007 and yet it has generated 100 pages and 2083 hip swinging, finger snapping tongue wagging user opinions and still going strong!! I am intrigued and compelled to buy this mini-computer. Have Nokia finally produced the quintessential all-in-one device?? The proof of the pudding is in the eating!!

Looking forward to the firmware update soon. Most minor issues dont distract me much. The silverplate does blind me when watching vids under bright lights. Put it under a table for shade. I bought this phone for 3 reasons. 1)Stable n fast S60 OS. 2) Solid alternative for P&S cam. 3) Great reception... It aces in all of them. No freezes it yet. The rest of the N82's features is just a bonus to me. The looks dont bother me at all. Ive got a few curious glances already since it isnt common here (SoCal) like an iPhone or RAZR. I like phones that hardly anyone owns. N95 has taken some of the N82's limelight n sales which ok by me. Design is not my top priority. I dont buy phones to fish for compliments or look for a GF. Only another Nokia or SE will surpass this in photography.

A few minor annoyances that isn too distracting. Yes, the battery could be better. 1500 mah could at least make thru the day for me. Autorotation screen can be a nuisance when using emTube. Have it turned off at times. Wish the screen was bigger n brighter in direct sunlight. Make sure to have autolock app. If u shake it, the screen lights up which drain batt more.

why people say bad shit to this phone? i got this phone and its working good for me no freeze no hangs, and they always say symbian sux? i love this os it lets me put many programs unlike sony which i can only put java games and sum shitty program that dont make sence, and btw wats the use of animated screen saver if ur screens gonna turn off to sdave power, i mean its kinda useless also dont u think? surely nokia cant last as long as sony but imagine the features that u can use, for everything thats good theres always a price to pay, and i dont mind that as long as i get wat i need from my device..
