    I think Nokia is a little bit to late for the 8 megapixel camera race, as the Sony Ericsson as announse their new phone "Ido" have a 12 megapixel camera.

        375 euros? Thats cheaper than almost all other 8mp cameras and even n96. Im getting this one for sure. Pity there's no xenon flash.

              The N95 has variable aperture, 2.8/5.6, as do all the other Nokia 5Mp phones.

                  Give me other brands that can beat nokia in terms of software and stability, and originality. Its clearly seen that nokia being its best at keeping their design as original, not like lg or samsung, you cant tell the diferences between samsung and lg.
                  For symbian phone, i really go for nokia. It will be a hard choice, but, come-on, any phone would have its pros and cons. There are definitely no perfect phone.

                        is the first 8 megapixel cameraphone to sport a wide 28mm lens.

                        There are also other goodies such as a mechanical shutter as on the Samsung INNOV8, allegedly a new, better Carl Zeiss lens.

                        The Nokia N86 8MP is the first device with variable aperture ranging from F2.4/3.2/F4.8. That means the device does betted in low light situations thanks to the wider aperture of F2.4 and takes sharper shots in bright daylight thanks to the F4.8 aperture value.

                          i think i will buy it

                          forget the dark blue one, the white one looks more beautiful

                            The design is totally different this time compared to the previous NSeries. It's unattractive.

                                  Only thing that I don't quite like is the not-so-good design.. But at least it looks better in white.
