They told me to wait for 1 week for them to repair it. I asked them to inspect my battery first, and they did not see any wrong with it. It might be electrical prob according to technician, they have to bring my phone to their head office in makati. I will miss it for 1 week

because:
the display of n85 is amoled..it easily gets destr... moreOLED is far superior to standard LCD - especially seeing that the n79s screen is smaller.
OLED screen do have a shorter life- (if your WHOLE screen is running the colour blue for 2 years non stop, they will wear out). The average life of a mobile is far shorter than this.

I am still quite worried as to if I should get this phone or not, I mean I have been a Nokia fan, but u don't expect anything to be wrong with the phone when you are paying close to $600 for it. When I read reviews, I don't really feel encouraged because theres always people having some or the other problem, no doubt there are also people saying good things about the phone too. I guess with the "Made in China" brand it all comes down to luck.
I am pretty cynical about shelling out 600 hard earned bucks, when u dont know wats it gonna be like....
Any opinion about buying the phone will be highly appreciated. Is it really worth taking the risk?
Thanks in anticipation

I got 5800 yesterday. I charged both my n85 and 5800 last night. Its 20:30 here in the Phils, my 5800 has still full bars while my n85 is now down, considering that i had been playing with my 5800 the whole day!

Hi...in some of the older user reviews that I have read, I find people complaining about the battery life, which kind of contradicts one of the purposes served by the OLED display, and I understand that battery life is user dependent, but shall be glad if someone could give their opinion on battery life.
In the recent posts theres a consensus about firmware upgrade, any news of Nokia heeding to this?
Thanks in anticipation

Anonymous, 11 Jan 2009why the cam. doest have xenon flash Its true that xenon flash is far better than led flash but, do you know that xenon flash is not easy to maintain?
If you're expecting a phone with xenon flash, it means you won't mind the size of the phone because it needs an electrolytic capacitor for operation, and this capacitor needs to be charged in order to produce the bright light.
Also Xenon flashes are very fragile, you'll need to prevent your phone from falling to the ground, because they get spoilt easily.
For the N82 users please keep your phone very well and when you're holding it please hold it firmly.

This is a great phone. But i'm still expecting the Nokia N97. It has a better battery life.
N85 is a good phone.
If you love it go for it but i don't like the size of its internal memory, its too poor for my liking.
I guess i'll give it up since i'm cool with My New N96 for now

Goood Camera.
