I don't really recommend the N85. The camera isn't that good and the gallery is laggy like crap. N86 is good though.

I never experience lag in my phone though.. if have enough money.. go for N86 8MP |

So it's n85 vs n86. Have not look at the phones, but I reckon probably not worth to spend too much just to have 8MP. Used to have n95 with 5MP, and it is good enough. Missed my n95 because the speakers were superb. Even in noisy environment, if I switch on the speaker phone, I can still hear everything and have a proper conversation.
Don't like qwerty keypads. Dear kae7, I was referring to Camera Flash. Thanks. |

Nokia N86 camera is very good..Don't like qwerty keypads. Dear kae7, I was referring to Camera Flash. Thanks. it even can pawn some compact camera... and.. it also has better processor than N85. though.. both of them[N85 and N86] has no graphic accelerator |

No phone is perfectcoz slide phone always got problem with "ribbon". just went thru some feedback regarding nokia x6,lotsa negative comments there even.. everything is not perfect.. i could say.. you need to try first .. dont hear comment from others.. dont trust anybody.. only trust yourself.. and you will choose the best for you.. so.. i suggest.. you go to shop and try both phone.. then.. you can decide it yourself.. believe me.. i never ask for recommendation [for now on].. because i wont trust anybody except me.. |
