As in camera?

If talking about picture quality on display, the OLED screen makes the N85 much better. You can check out the mobile-review here: http://www.mobile-review.com/review/nokia-n85-en.shtml and the gsmarena review here: http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_n85-review-297.php

5800 just 1300 for zitron now. I seriously don't think nokia will make a good "iphone" at the first try. Was tempted to get 5800 too tongue.gif

For other forumers who wanna wait until price drop until 1k...all i can only say..its quite hard. n85 basically is more or less as good as n95 or n96 at some aspects. Don't really think the price would drop so drastic..maybe it would reach 1.5k 6 months later..but certainly not 1k (zitron price)

yeah...this is something else..

n85 got fm transmitter, n95 8gb got infrared (can be used to control a tv or radio with irremote)

n85 gor amoled screen, n95 8gb got a bigger screen (bigger is better)

yes if we compare the pic quality the n85 wins with it's vivid display..

take in mind there's a few problems too with the amoled screen of n85

1. worse when viewed under sunlight...can't see it clearly..worst than most normal lcd phones...

2. oled screens have a much lower lifetime than normal lcd...something like a quarter or so of normal lcd lifetime... i know that some companies already make longer lasting oled but im not sure if nokia used it in n85.

3. if we are viewing movies with dark scenes, it's hard to see the details clearly...

my friends juz bought n85 last mth. his keypad got some jawi writing.
whn he asked the seller to giv him others without the jawi letters, seller told him the sets fr middle east is 'better' than the 1 with chinese ping yin which comes fr china....
how true is this or totally untrue?
*
to be honest, we don't know that the sets from middle east is made in finland. i could also be made in china..

quality wise i think ur friend shouldn't worry, but the seller say like that because he doesn't want your friend to complain to him.. ur friend should ask for an n85 that has NO jawi/chinese etc...

unless the speaker prob and the vertical line prob in 5800 got solved,if not i think i'll go for n85/n95 8gb..

yeaa im considering about the oled lifespan also but so far there's no one complaining bout it yet..as long as it can last up to 3-4 years then i guess it shouldn't be a big prob

My SE p1i just got stolen at pudu few day ago ~_~ and now doing research on 5800,n85 and n95 8gb..Starting 5800xm really poisoned me until i start to read negative feedbacks @@, make me scare of getting it Alrdy. So now im considering n85, btw i got a question, n85 can read and type Simplified Chinese?

Yea i'm also contemplating the 5800 over this. Not sure why..the touchscreen is nice, and the cheaper price.. but pay 300 more for 5mp and fm transmitter. I dunno..
*
dont need to contemplate anymore...either get the n85 or n95 8gb.. the 5800 has a few hardware problems up it's sleeves..

smashpop reported that his 5800 has a vertical line that wont go away on his lcd

a lot of people in malaysia and all around the world are reporting that the ear speakerphone is going soft when talking on the phone..very hard to hear. the problem is the speaker is either not connecting properly or not attached like it should

other forums also report the lcd going dim when it shouldn't..
i think an n85 or n95 8gb is more durable and would last longer because it's not a touchscreen phone


n85 and n95 8gb has 5mp camera..i need that.. camera wise both are similar and comparable...no need to worry.. both very nice though i can say that the n95 8gb is a bit better because of the numerous firmware updates..

the 5800 speaker prob is really annoying and heartbreaking cause it happens within a few days or weeks of buying the phone.

i dont want a phone that break down when it's still new...wtf.

Please check your facts...i dont think n95 does not have a bigger screen..in fact, they have the same resolution? which is 320x240

Anyway, i agree n95 8gb is a better phone then n85..that's why it is more expensive thumbup.gif but certainly not the normal n95

yup tats why the price remain stable for n95-8gb...5800 is really going cheap..thats y i suspect there might be something wrong with the hp and in fact it is..like what reported by the users..

so now left 2 choices for me either n85/n95-8gb...

please check your facts mr ivan.. i said a BIGGER SCREEN. n95 8gb has 2.8inch lcd and n85 has 2.6inch...duhh..check dictionary for "bigger" and "screen" and "resolution"

I DID NOT say it has a higher resolution.

2.8 and 2.6 is small on paper but if you see it for yourself the difference is noticable.

the n85 costs a bit more than n95 8gb because n85 is a newer phone. please check the prices and dont just say n95 8gb costs more ..it seems that u r the one that needs to check your facts bcause none of it is right..
