Get an app called emTube,it plays YouTube videos and allows you to download them if you want.

          Forums ive seen seem totaly INterestd in it.
          Its ways more because it has a bigger and better CPU than N95, has a DSP, Touchsensetive technology in the upper slide (although the Dpad is the only truly touchsensetive part), Gaming keys, Music keys, larger loudspeakers,and a bigger battery (than N95 Classic),all that adds quite a bit of weight apparently,and its an improvement from N91 weight.

            How come this cell weighs more than n95?N95 does ALOT more and comes in at 120grams.I think this will be lil bit too heavy in my pants.

              lol nobody in here has a clue about anything.M@T2 is ip for opera mini.N81 is a very ordinary device with various faults.Dedicated Nokia/s60 forums seem totally uninspired or even interested in this duck.

                    The WiFi should work with most if not all routers since it supports both B and G Wifi standards.
                    The sound is great on this phone, has a lot of Bass and Treble, and it seperates instruments VERY well due to its DSP.

                          I have had mine for over two weeks now and I am very happy and very satisfied. I can't fault it at all. It is a nice looking mobile with awesome features. I went from a Nokia N73, hated it and got the Sony K800I which I also sold because I didn't like it. Now I finally have a mobile that I love and enjoy using. Go for this model, best nokia made. This also came with a 2GB memory card in the box which was nice to see considering the N73 only came with a 128MB. Nokia N81 RULZ

                            Even though this phone uses UMTS that isn't compatible in the US. does the wifi of this phone atleast work and is operational? thanks.

                              But the sound via headset isn't very good.Do you think a firmware upgrade will fix this?I agree with Microphone being sub standard but that dosen't bother me as I hardly ever use it.As far as I have seen bluetooth seems ok.Nice phone.

                                Lol my name is Tshepo
                                Im on a Vodacom Talk130 contract and had a N80, but when i saw this baby i had to have it, Vodacom didn't have it so i went and bought it at Cell C sim free and unlocked so im using it with my Voda sim.
                                The build quality is actualy realy good, nothing creeks, and its VERY solid, the reviews mostly had Beta Versions of this not Final Versions, thats why they complain. Only two downsides are that the buttons are pretty hard and take some getting used to and 2nd is that its made out of high quality glossy plastic which is a finger print magnet so you have to keep whipping it after a while otherwise its all good.

                                You obviously HAVE NO CLUE of what you are talking about! Go back to your SE AND SAMSUNG forums and talk all that utter rubbish you are talking here. Ive never read so much trash!!

                                  Sound quality on headset is like cheap 70s radio next to ear! - simply not good enough Nokia
                                  Battery life shocking - used for day in London & came home with flat battery - simply not good enough Nokia
                                  Microphone picks up background noise better than your voice - in noisy environment you end up shouting - not good enough Nokia
                                  Bluetooth worse than useless with your voice transmitted with stutter - not good enough Nokia
                                  Camera is a 2mp one,next to useless and not able to fully utilise the 16million colour screen(guys at forum Nokia ask what does fully utilise 16million screen-nothing!)
                                  No PC lead, so cannot download software update,supplier says will cure problem get one included
                                  Nokia have gone a step too far in trying to get the Sony-Ericsson/Samsung crowd to use s60.

                                  FURIOUS

                                    Word tshepiso, the Cell C is a good deal at this moment! Although I don't like the service provider because of its lack of internet capabilities, Ill try to check it out! Uhm dude how is tha build quality, some reviews say it looks cheap and kind of loose-it creaks when pressed down... Halla man?

                                      There should be a N81 for US in the making, it will probably be the N81-2.

                                        Can this phone not use 3g in the US? because thats what i'm gathering, thats the only downfall i can find.
