      Instead of this cheap looking plastic toy, try the Samsung Pixon with 8 Mp camra, video light, DVD recording,...etc. Nearly same price, N79 versus Pixon is like comparing a lada with a ferrari !

              well guys for me, as of n0w, n0thing beats the cam quality of n82 since it has xen0n flash, i have the black n82 and very happy with it... i also have the white n79,just bought it 2 mos ago, so far im happy with it... i love the navi wheel, the breathing thing..its cute! the audio quality is good, its a slim solid f0ne in hand... the slider lock located at the upper left w0rks well. but honestly,like other f0nes..there are some disadvantages in n79!
              = poor cam quality,n0 matter how hard u try to adjust the settings,as if its not a 5megapixs f0ne with dual led! disappointing.
              = the keypad is not user friendly,kinda hard to press.

              but its ok with me since i have my n82..! and about the theme d0wnloading in n79,yes, i cant find it in file manager or in app manager,dunno why?! and when i d0wnload wallpaper using the f0ne,it says that its already saved to gallery,but when i exit the web and go to gallery to check the d0wnloaded wallpaper, it wasn't there,it wasnt saved!..has any1 experience the same prob?

                  Anonymous, 26 Jan 2009if you like n82why you in n 79 forum lol i would not have ... morebcoz i want to read the opinions of people....
                  secondly, i had used this phone for a week and i was totally disappointed especially with camera quality....
                  i also got the problem with N79 that the screen auto turn off within 3sec and even after upgrading the firmware the problem was still there... i guess that i got the faulty set but my friend also has the same problem.... so i came to conclusion that it has got still software problem....

                  so, i switch back to my N82....


                  N82 BESSSSSSTT set in N-series till now....nothing can match to its performance and features....

                                        The cameras of N82 and N79 are like heaven and earth. N79 camera is not too bad but not too good either. N82 camera is the best among all camera phones even up to now. The Xenon flash is a great addition to the equally great camera of N82. But it's not the Xenon alone that makes N82 the best camera phone ever. The shutter speed and advanced image processing algorithm of N82 are the most important elements of its camera capabilities. N82 can capture in crystal clear details even a very fast moving object in a very dark environment. I wouldn't swap the Xenon flash and camera of N82 for the N79 FM transmitter. It's not worth it. Really not worth it.
