its funny because i don't have any of the problems mobile review had with in their reviews. my phone works stable and it doesn't crash that much.
its a great phone now today that on your internet plan you can pay just 5$ for a wifi router.
the only drawback its the battery life it always last 2 full days to me. with HEAVY and i mean heavy use 1 full day.
as for once i agree with gsmarena review a bit more.

Life time. 820 mAh capable battery (BL-5B), applied in the smartphone, will last 8 days in standby mode, as the manufacturer claims. Yet the real numbers are far distant from that enormous theoretical life time – on medium load (30-40 minutes of calls, 15-20 minutes of other functions use), the phone worked for nearly one day. And should you be heavy on browsing web-pages via standard connection protocols (GPRS/EDGE), it would be good if the N80 will stay operational for 6-7 hours. But since it’s a common way of active communication with sending and receiving mail, surfing the web etc., it makes me recall those times, when a smartphone’s limit was a couple of hours and I was forced change handsets pretty often. Basically one might have overlooked all the shortcomings I’ve mentioned above, but the life time – this is what strikes the handset’s functionality, because the battery here yields to all other models on the market capacity-wise. On top of that there will be no replacements for it, I mean at all, though a lot of people would really want to have one.
Nonetheless, those, who are going to use the N80 at work and have chargers everywhere they go, mediocre life time won’t be a big issue – all this handset needs is frequent recharging.
Personally, I find it somewhat important for a smartphone’s battery to last a flight, by that I mean: approximately one hour in an airport, while waiting for a flight and handling mail, making calls etc.; 3-3,5 hours on board, nearly 2 of which can be devoted to playing games, reading books and mail. As for managing male, I didn’t even make an attempt to do this on Nokia N80, even with ProfiMail installed - in light of absence of a touch screen it’s the same as putting yourself on the rack. Moreover, default impossibility of custom list marking adds to that nuisance. But let’s get back to Nokia N80, which managed to last about one hour on board, during which I was playing a simple non-dynamic game. Not so much, is it? I would even say quite little.
To tell the truth I’ve been looking for a definitely awesome detail of the phone, which could overcome all its flaws – and I’ve found it in the last place I would ever look. It’s on the front panel – a title, telling everyone around you that it’s a Nokia. Honestly, if it was a handset bearing a brand other than Nokia, it wouldn’t be so popular and well-treated on the market, and users’ criticism on infinite amount of forums would be way more intensive. All in all, it’s another example of overwhelming importance of trade marks.

One of major advantages of Nokia N80 is WiFi. First disappointment for me was the fact that battery went flat after WiFi was used for 2 hours and 30 minutes. In future it was possible to make it 3 hours instead. However expecting that this model will work more with such weak battery was rather naive, that’s why those who are looking for wireless WiFi connection from their handset better have charger with them.

BATTERY LIFE ?
I've put criticisms of N80 on here but battery life is good (although anything is good after Samsung Z107!)Maybe mine is good because Orange (do something right!) fully charged it before sending it out, there must be something in the advice to leave it on charge a long time when you first have it.

Message to Cruz,
If you want to use the Wifi, don't choose Home network. Go to Menu- connectivity-connection manager and then check available WLAN. Other way is to open your browser and phone will ask you wich connection you want. Select available WLAN.

i have had the phone for two weeks now (latest fw), and it hasn't crashed even once. seems like the software and build quality issues are a problem for the first batch only...

mobile review had a prototype while gsm arena had a newer version. the new version improved the camera and sound camera ALOT, and made the phone more stable,
the only crash i ever got was when i tried to open lots of apps and run out of ram, and it fixed itself in a second.

Different reviewers reviewed different physical units, even of the same model. Therefore the conclusions can be different! This is a fact of life. Also, it depends on each reviewer's benchmeark... thus, for example, Las Vegas is EXCITEMENT for some, and a HEADACHE for others. Do not be surprised by the different impressions and conclusions. Listen, and make your own judgment. That's life folks.
