This by far is the best nseries phone. I have had a n73, n82, n85 currently, n95, n95 8gig. The build quality is great very heavy and solid. Camera is better then my n82 minus shots with xenon flash. I love feature pack 2. Phone is super fast with no lag and camera is very fast focusing and taking pictures. Will not regret. O by the way i had the lg renoir and the camera on the n85 kills it :)

Hi,

Can someone let me know where to find the smileys? I can't seem to be able to find them!!!

How do I deactivate the internet access? I sometimes accidentally press the small button next to the navigating button & it showed me the internet access screen. I think I'm being charged for that, can't stand it!!!!

To all prospective buyers please do not put ur hard earned money on this piece of crap called nokia n85.
This is my personal experience. I bought this mobile for around 500 US dollars but had to sell it after 3 days at 400. No return policy at my place.
1. Loose slider,loose numeric keypad (believe me u can take it out just by putting your nail under its lower end), it is made of very thin cheap plastic. Battery cover is also loose with play.
2. Camera is worse than my earlier n82,lack of xenon flash,poor camera butten,fails to lock focus even on repeated pressing. Poor feel of camera button.
3. OLED screen very poor performance in direct sunlight.
4. USB charger- more wear and tear at single point. The 2mm charger is most durable.
5. Fm transmitter poor signal only a gimmick.
6. Slow fp2 interface,poor graphics(no 3d accelerator)just compare the photo gallery with n82 (n82 has a graphic accelerator and dual processor)
I had to revert back to my old faithful n82 which i think is still the best nokia smartphone.
