Hey guys, I'm an avid nokia fan, and have been for a long time, but I just have one major problem with nokia phones, and that's the build quality, i'm sick of paint scratching, screens cracking and buttons sticking

Basically my question is about the N85 vs Samsung i8510 INNOV8.....

I'm a heavy texter and I tend to drop my phone quite a bit so I need something fairly durable.
Which one should I go for??

    besides the ultra colourful screen & super batt the n85 has apps in every nook & cranny..Just as you think youve downloaded your fave apps & set up i ventured onto n85 web browser to find ovi,facebook,& widget apps..The n85 has so much going on you have to be patient while you go thru all its settings to set up the most feature packed smartphone i have bought in 6 yrs its superb ..

          How does this keypad compare to the N79's keypad? My N76 just died and I tried to get an N85, but when Dell ran out, we worked out a good price on the replacement for the N79. But this keypad is horrible.

          The best keypad I ever had was on my 6170. The N76's keypad wasn't bad though. Can anyone tell me if I should get this N85 or should I get another phone if I text a lot w/ T9 (don't want QWERTY)

                I'm torn between getting a N95 or N85. Can anyone help me point out the pros/cons or give me insightful opinions? Thanks.

                  I find this phone pretty neat, only problem i find is the build quality, heard of some people with wobbly sliders and battery covers.

                  My sliders are perfect, but my battery cover behind can wobble with a small touch, irritating, with creaky sounds. If i send it for repairs, will they replace the cover? Or give a new phone? Because i would rather have a wobbly cover then slider.

                  =)

                      Also love the way its speaks your text for you and audio themes announces mosts things you do like speaking OPEN when you slide up fone and CLOSED wen slod down or you can have jingles..I am glad to be back with nokia as the press and hold right soft key activates voice synthesizer where you speak your command and it does it i.e. bluetooth and bluetooth switches on

                                hello

                                is this phone? a touch screen or touch sensitive buttons? or are they regular pushable buttons? and i currently have an e66 but after 2 weeks the top part started to get very loose and wiggly, i was hoping this one may have a sturdy slider, please someone let me know soon.

                                thanks.
