    Hi N81 8GB Users!

    If you won't mind to answer the question, after putting more than 5 GB of music and videos in it's built-in memory, does it becomes slow, little slow, very slow? Does it hangs often while accessing files from its memory? How much overall it performs in terms of speed?

    Thanks for your comments!!!

One may not have much trouble operating it in the hand, but its a nightmare in the pocket. To make matters worse, its weight isnt evenly distributed. N93i which has the same weight feels lighter.

            I have a question. I read a review of the 6210 navigator at smape.com and it was said that it has the same audio quality as n81. The RMAA tests done at mobile-review confirm that they are quite close. (wierd!) Can anyone who has had hands-on experience with both devices confirm how they sound please?

              For music through headset, get n81. Its more stable and firmware updates give it the same music quality as n91 (for those outside europe).
              For music through speakers, get the 5800xm. It is the loudest nokia phone at the moment in this area. It also has very good audio quality through the headset as well. Just slightly below n81, but better than say 5310xm.

                  N81=crap
                  N78 is totally worth a buy

                  N81 is just a gaming device
                  it has a bad camera(even n73 has better camera)

                  N81 is just not worth of its hefty price tag

                            Apparently the N96 and N81 are currently the best at sound, in that case if i can il get a N96, otherwise im now considering the N95-8GB due to its good price and great Hardware. Ive become fond of watching movies on my N81 and think the N95-8GB will be even better to watch movies on due to its 3D hardware acceleraters supporting VGA 30FPS Video Acceleration. I dont think il be getting a FP2 device.

                                      so i think that 79 is the best

Can you pls enlighten me? Is there really no other hardware & software differences between N81 8GB and N81 w/ microSD slot besides the 8GB flash memory & the card slot, and also the color trim? Which is N81-1 and N81-2? And also, can N81 handle 8GB card with no problems? I want the N81 w/ microSD slot because I want to expand its memory to 16GB if possible. And I like the silver trim than the mocha trim of N81 8GB. Thanks.
