Review - Nokia N85 Mobile Phone

Review - Nokia N85 Mobile Phone

Design
The N85 is a solid-feeling slider phone that's smooth around the edges, giving it a more up-to-date feel than the blocky N95. Considering how many features it packs in, it doesn't feel chunky or too heavy.

Aside from the keypad, we found all the keys on the N85 well-designed and easy to press. There's even a handy toggle switch for locking and unlocking the N85 quickly. As for the keypad, we found it too flat for our liking, but not unusable.

The double sliding mechanism — which moves around too much on the N95 — feels more solid in the N85, and doesn't slide when it's in your pocket. Equally secure is the N85's camera cover — again, it won't open by mistake in your trousers and take photos of your keys.

We really appreciate that Nokia has placed a 3.5mm headphone jack at the top of the phone instead of on the side, making it much less fiddly to use. You'll also be glad to hear that charging and connecting to a PC can all be done via a micro-USB cable.

Worth noting is the N85's OLED display, which consumes less power than a standard LCD. The screen is bright and large enough to view text messages or watch YouTube videos on. We also found that the Opera Mini browser looked superb on it.

Features
The N85 offers up some truly useful features, starting with HSDPA and Wi-Fi — you can access the web almost everywhere you go. The on-board browser works well enough, but we prefer using Opera Mini, which you can download for free and offers a neat way of viewing full web pages.

GPS means you can find your location and plan trips, using Nokia Maps, which comes pre-installed, or you can download Google Maps. We didn't have any problems picking up satellites, but as expected, the GPS doesn't work indoors.

On the back of the N85 lies a 5-megapixel camera with auto-focus and dual LEDs. It's very easy to use, with a simple interface, and we found the picture quality to be very good, even in low light — the LEDs providing more illumination than expected.

Equally unexpected is the built-in FM transmitter, which allows you to play music wirelessly through a car radio. It's something that's been made available in the past using third-party technology, but having it built-in is really useful.

As we mentioned before, there's a 3.5mm headphone jack and the Nokia N85's dedicated media keys mean using it as a music player is really easy. The music player interface is straightforward and gives you the option to shuffle tracks, adjust the equaliser and create playlists.

Nokia N85 is a wide ranged product which ranges between new N79 and N96 handsets which is Nokia N85 slider. This range is added by another N95 class smart phone with GPS, 3G, and WiFi as well as a 5 mega pixel camera.

Any N85’s camera utilizes optics of Carl Zeiss and it contains specifications such as VGA resolution which captures video at 30 fps is also available wit a dual LED flash as well as auto focus. This camera connects to the N85’s on-board GPS for allowing tagging of photos with the geographical senses as well as enabling uploading directly from the handset to the web.

Similar to Nokia N96 handset as well as N95 this product offers a couple-way slider with a numeric keyword in a particular direction. This also involves a set of multimedia or gaming keys in the other. The media keys change legends which are dependent on function akin to the Motorola ROKR E8 in concept.

Nokia N85 handset is a 3.5G HSDPA device that is available in couple of different tri-band UMTS specifications, one positioned for Europe as well as one product positioned for North America. It provides backup 802.11 bytes and g WiFi, USB 2.0 connections as well as Bluetooth 2.0 connections. This is also displays a large 2.6 inches OLED panel in sixteen million colors rather than TFT displays we normally which we view. Per se this is lighter as well as more energetic than a TFT panel but OLED displays which are not in usage. This is huger than the display which you can find in competition with mobile phones. You have also had the liberty not to treat it as a touch screen device.

GPS is incorporated as a positive standard as well as the Nokia N85 which supports A-GPS for quicker conclusion. Long term use of these handsets will involve an online purchase. Alternatively, maps of Google work properly on these devices.

Nokia N85 handset is a pity comprehensive multimedia backup on the N85 which can be likened to be N-series phones. In conjunction with playing back various audio as well as audio formats this handsets also has an FM radio as well as FM transmitter for enabling you to enjoy yourself in the car without wires coupled with a standard 3.5mm audio socket for enabling connection to your magnificent headset. This product also has a television output which comes with 8GB microSD card along with the box.
