        zaheed, 24 Nov 2008sure buddy! here it goes!(i have done a lot of research on this two phones as i was also in d... moreIt is right that N82 and N79 have the same camera module. But as they have different hardware and microprocessors, processing power and software are different. That is why the result in camera and video are better with N82. Never mind, N82 is far too big for me, so i'll go for N79. And video light is really great

                      here it goes!(i have done a lot of research on this two phones as i was also in dilemma like u!)
                      camera:
                      n82 and n79 has the same module of camera(as mobile-review suggests!)
                      but gsm arena suggests that n82 has better camera!
                      i go with mobile-review!
                      bcoz i have compared both day light pictures of the two!
                      flash:
                      xenon of 82 is the best for still photography!but cant be used for video!
                      but dual led of 79 can shoot videos in the dark!and also very bright!so u can nearlky take good photos in dark!
                      speed:
                      nothing beats 85 and 79 in speed!(u can check ne review sites!)
                      hang and glitches:
                      i hav this set for almost 3 weeks!not a single time has it ever hanged or sowed down!
                      both has smae amount of free ram! but 9.3 fp 2 helps 79 alot!
                      looks!
                      the n79 looks the best among nseries if not among the whole nokia!and also get 5 color choice including two front colors!(alot of new 1's r also coming!)it is also the slimmest!
                      keypad!
                      every one had an issue with d keypad of 82 but n79's is really soft and smooth to type!(i type alot atleast 25 sms a day!huge ones!)
                      battery:
                      n79 has much beter talk time and standby time than 82!it also goes for movies,browsing,and video,gps!
                      weight:
                      79 is really light!
                      music quality:
                      this is one of the best sounding phone both in ear and in speakerphone from nokia(admitted by most of the review sites!)music is clear and crisp and loud!
                      82 had issues with d loud speakers!
                      browsing:
                      is better than 82 because of symbian 9.3!
                      graphiocs accelerator!
                      n79 lacks one but 82 has it!
                      but u woint notice that much difference in a 2.4 inch screen!
                      fm transmitter:
                      n79 has one but 82 don't
                      and finally!
                      n79 is brand new technology!whereas n82 is an year old!
                      so it's upto u buddy which to buy!
