-why?
=because you do like music


-why don't choose N73?
=why not?N73 offers only better camera but doesn't supported by better display


+plus
N81 not only offers better music experience by it's 3,5" jackphone but also better gaming experience with n-gage platform,cool menu animation & features,better keypad user interface with it's navi wheel,cooler phone style,browsing with WLAN

nikhil, 28 Aug 2008hello!!!!!!! i am thinking to buy a new phone. is n81 a good choice with this range of phones... moreIt has been a week long I have bought N81. Its really a nice phone, you can go ahead buying this. Yesssss offcourse, it supports .jar files, especially it supports .sis and .sisx files. Camera quality is a bit low but the stereo sound in the phone is amazing. Other features are also rocking - this is more about the interface. It will seem bulky if you are not used to bulky phones. My suggestion you can go ahead buying this phone.

I bought this fone for about a week now.. ive bought the red version, and im loving it!! here's some pros and cons of this fone to help u decide...,

cons..
1.its camera is amongst the worst 2megapix cam out there, v3x's cam is way much better in 2 megapix resolution

2.the video playback capability is poor,e.g if you take a video using a VGA 30 fps video from n95 and send it to the n81 it cant play the video because the video playback is limited to 15 fps only...

3. it can only record videos in 15 fps in 320x240 resolution which is poor, the camera's flash is yellowish it looks awful when you take pictures in total darkness


pros

1.n81 looks better compared to n95, it feels expensive and durable

2. the user interface is superb , way much better than n95, it has transition effects much like in sony ericsson's UI, it doesnt lag the tactile feedback is great .

3.the screen is stunning it looks better than 2.6'' screens with QVGA resolution...

4. the navi-wheel makes the whole experience better,.. it feels good

5. the music quality is outstanding!! it is better than n95 both in speaker and headset

* the cam and the video are the only drawbacks of this phone.., its the perfect music phone out there !!

I really like this phone so much. It's my top pick among all my choices. The phones that I'm choosing to buy are N81 8GB, N82, N78 and N95. Is it true that N81 8GB has already been discontinued and no longer available in the market? I'm interested to buy this phone. I prefer the N81 8GB because I don't want to buy an extra memory card. Please clarify if this phone is still available and how much does it cost. Thank you.

Amey, 28 Aug 2008Hello, i've been looking for a slide phone with an average camera and mp3 player..n81 seems li... more-GAMES=you can install both n-gage and S60 games.you'll get better video graphic & sound much like playing PSone on mini console when playing n-gage games,but it's not free (too bad)

-MUSIC=it has stereo speaker & if you use the N81 standar headset,it's not different compare to Xpressmusic phones.you can use other better headphones beacause it has 3,5" jack on the top of the phone or on the mic cable.so you can still make a call with your fav headphones

-WLAN=don't ask!!it's very easy to use.just sit down in a hotspot,open web browser,choose 'WLAN',it will begin to search any WIFI signal,choose the existing hotspot,begin the browsing with nice display and full flash animation.......

nikhil, 28 Aug 2008hello!!!!!!! i am thinking to buy a new phone. is n81 a good choice with this range of phones... moreto buy anything is always depend on your money dude...


if you want a GOOD SUPER PHONE in USD300 range then YOU SHOULD BUY N81
not other phones

why?
because it has all we need: wifi,UMTS,N-gage,good music & video,cool animation menu,cool style
ignore the camera if you don't want to be a photographer




don't believe?
compare it by yourself....
