        If you go for the grey it comes with brown, coral & white back covers in the box.
        If you go for white it comes with brown, green & i think blue ( not sure on the blue) as standard.

Thanks for the camera quality update. Just give a comprehensive review of your phone and compare it with your 6220c (things like music quality, battery life, xenon vs dual led, keypad+naviwheel, fm transmitter). Thanks. Once again, congrats.

                        Anonymous, 22 Oct 2008Why would anyone choose N79 over N82? N82 has everything N79 has, plus a xenon flash.Because n79 has naviwheel, better speakers, fm transmitter, betterkeypad, slightly better battery, brighter screen, 24 hours of music playback, comes with 4gb card as opposed to n82's 2gb, lighter and slimmer, xpress-on covers, symbian fp2, dual led flash for video recording, etc.
                        However, n82 is cheaper and has xenon flash.

                                the specifications page of n79 in gsmarena is not correct. n79 has no hscsd.
