Nokia N82 Mobile Phone Review - Worth Your Keep?

The Nokia N82 mobile phone is one of the best multimedia smart-phones in the market today - and the most affordable of the N series.

Although the Nokia N82 itself is bulky with the measurements of 112 x 50.2 x 17.3 mm and weighs of 114g - it is smaller than the N95 8GB and if you can take the thick frames and tiny sized keys aside - it is quite a stylish looking phone.

Here's a brief description of the Nokia N82 mobile phone -

• Good sized screen at 2.4" offering a 240 x 320 pixel resolution




• Matte-finished stainless steel on the front and sides




• Beige plastic back with a subtle herringbone patterning




• A relatively big camera module




• Micro SD card slot on the side of the phone




• At the top of the Nokia N82 headset, there is 3.5mm headphone port

With the good sized screen, this Nokia N82 model has a great automatic screen rotation which can switch to landscape view smoothly - which makes Nokia N82 5 mega-pixel camera and Xenon flash superb .. .and coupled with Carl Zeiss optics and auto-focus, the N82's camera is one of the best in its class.

As well, with access to the N Series features like N Cage games, Nokia music player, Nokia Maps and so on - there's plenty to like about this phone.

The drawbacks to this Nokia N82 mobile phone are the battery life and phone design. It is concerning that it is only slightly better than the power hungry N95 models. With moderate use, the battery life stands at only 1 to 1.5 days worth. And if you are into the GPS mapping and Wi-Fi use, you could be charging your battery daily.

Overall, the Nokia N82 mobile phone is value for money as it one of the best in the N series. But, if you're not into more usable buttons and slimmer streamlined phones that will not make a bulge in your pockets - than this is not for you. The Nokia N82 will suit users who wants the full featured handset of the N series features and performance over the design.
