            N91 user, 26 Aug 2008I hope these sets have Audio Quality like N91 or N81 ... Th... moren85 has the hi-fi sound which nokia used to describe as the sonic experience of n81 and n91. it's most likely that n85 carries the same audio chip that amplifies the n81 and n91. i have had both phones so i think n85 is the reputable successor to those devices.

                    its good there are so many with same-ish specs, the specs are pretty high man, each one has the basic's either a good 3.2 or 5 mp carl zezis camera, either built-in storage or memory card capable of high storage, great screens all great size, smae differences in design, different form factors.....they all have great specs? and because there are so many the price of the old ones drop so much!! i just bought me a N78!!! and it was at a great price! why you all complainiing more models means more choice and better price which is good for us! keep chillin my homies!!! but i can't wait for N96!!!! baby!!!!!!! keep chillin !!!

                        I hope these sets have Audio Quality like N91 or N81 ... Then these would be a great buy!!

                        If No, then I won't purchase any of these sets ... Audio is a basic!

                        It should be "great" before you move on to GPS, etc....

                        Let's wait for Review .... GSM Arena STAFF Listening? PLEASE ...

                                  Fourth N92 same to N93/N93i
                                  fifth, N81 and all n0kia's latert nseries have same design they just have 1 differences, and that is the form fact0r! And also their c0l0rs! If n0t black it'll be silver!

                                    the screen N85 using is a highlight
                                    not even that

                                    both got fm-transmitter plus 3.5mm av jack which other brand music series don't have
