Owners of the phone, I got a question. Is the screen visible under sunlight?

About the OLED lifespan issue, I got my own thought.

Let's say the OLED lifespan is 100 hours, it doesn't mean the screen will die after 100 hours. But it means it could light up for 100 hours before it die. So some said that the N85 OLED could last for around 2 years only, but if most of the time your phone OLED is under power saving mode, I don't think it will deduct it's life, so maybe it will last for 4 years or longer.

I don't know, just my piece of thought. Don't blame me ok? brows.gif

wow price is dropping fast for N85..i wonder why..

One of the reason is the AMOLED. They say the cost is cheaper because it doesn't need something like... backlight or don't know what to call..

I want a N85...!!

i oso dunno where is the photo i bluetooth it from n85 to my n95.
not really big problem but i find the detail loss after compression. n95 has better details if were to compare side by side in the PC. and the AMOLED screen, no doubt it is beautiful, doesnt show the same way when take picture. in the phone screen itself, there noises... lots of them. but when transfer back to pc, the noise is not that bad, only thing i found out is the detail.

then when i take picture, even i switch off the flash, it still uses the light. not sure if it is as flash or guidance, but it is sure annoying. for me at least.

my bet it is the firmware's problem. not the hardware. so i hope there is a firmware update to kawtim it



So you didn't face the problem like flares and blurry as in the link i posted?
About the flash, I don't know much about it but maybe the light is as guidance and allow your camera to get focus on certain point. Maybe you try to change the scene option (night mode?) and try again?

N96 firmware has been updated few times since it launch, so I dont think Nokia will forget the N85 also.

Mostly the problems are caused by firmware, hope there will be one to replace the buggy firmware..

Maybe the reviewed phone was a prototype, not the final release 1.

N79 and N85 both has similar spec, but N85 has AMOLED screen (awesome). N85 got dual slide like the famous N95.

Oh you can choose to either buy for your gf or wife? Too bad I'm only going to buy for my wife, no gf. Haha... brows.gif
Btw, still waiting for N85 in Penang, asked few shops and mostly say no stock, or the price too high..
