If theme effects turned off, it works faster and does not hang.

      CONFUSED , 19 Aug 2009hi guys I want to clear up some things about n79, Ive read many reviews on the net and is said... moreDon't worry guy, no more probs in N79 with the latest firmware. Every phone has bugs in thier software even the flagship N97 is really buggy. Look the samsung omnia i900 is really a bug Palace lot n lot of bugs..
      I think nokia is the only company to produce lots of
      S/W update for their products..Nokia always head to glory,

        if u want to switch to the memory card of higher capacity then go for the genuine one which is of nokia, but if its expensive or whatever then i recommend u to buy high speed cards for example kingston high speed cards are available at my place, i found it important ant it matters alot most of the time. (abstaining from thorough explaination)

                anurag, 19 Aug 2009i hve just bought an N79 but wen i take pics indoors wid flash d pics appear 2 be yellowish...... morehi buddy, u dont have to b so much worried about it bcause i have tested lot of phones but they all have the same problem but only when u take snaps while using its flash, the reason i understand is the position of dual LED which exactly strike to the yellow pad which is exactly beneath the camera shutter, if u use any other lightening source u will never experience the sama problem and same happened when u make videos with flash enable mode, thanks

However the Accelerometer is very very sensitive - just tilt the phone a little bit and it changes the display to horizontal.
                            All in all, it is a good phone with lots of features, will definitely make a good buy.
