this phone is fantastic and it is not true that the battery life is not good and the other brand phones which I don't want 2 mention are just ruining the image of this phone and don't bother them they just want to ruin NOKIA's site...

    hei,guys! I just found out a useful shortcut to find the MAC address of the networking card of my N81. I used it to connect to my friend's wifi, who has the device filtering by its mac address. star#62209526# I'm posting with my N81,so unfortunately, there is no symbol for star,which is next to +

        My money will defo be on N91 Sound Qaulity via headpones compared to N81 which has EU volume restrction on it. N91 has the best audio quality so far n dat samsung phone which more or less has better quality via headsets like N91.

        Keep to N91 for audio via headsets/headphones. N91 has the bass deep bass effect which N81 doesnt have very much.

            Yes, there is a significant difference in sonic experience. N95 8GB does not have the audio chip present on music phones like N91 and N81.

                N81 better sound quality via headphones. although n95 8GB has 8 band equalisers and n81 has 5 band equalisers. da n81 performs better but n95 8gb 8band equaliser is for used for movie sound, video audio, music audio output via da loudspeaker.

                n81 loudspeaker is not good as n95 8gb. but if u want music device i would advise you to go for N91 8GB or Sony Ericsson W960i amazing.

                N81
                - Good loud clear sounds, battery weak, camera appauling.

                N91
                - Sound quality da best i ever heard, battery amazing if using da new bl-5c revised battery from nokia fink it 1200mah. camera no good.

                W960i
                - Love Da Mega Bass, Battery life amazing, touchscreen better dan normal symbian OS whicj arent touchscreen lol...

                                i believe that n81 8gb is overall better than n91 8gb..its pretty obvious that its (n81/n81 8gb) is the update of the n91/n91 8gb. wel i dont i have this phone since i cant buy it yet but as i see in this thread you guys really enjoy it alot since u praise it too much.. :-D i will have done the same if i have this phone. i own n91 and i love it so much. pls dont make it a contest between n81 and n91 cos the former is the update of the latter & its pointless to put that two into battle.. yes the n91 is heavy, has awkward keypad, poor screen reso, sluggush (though mine isnt), poor battery life, no camera flash, odd-looking to some of you & outdated...and n81 is lightning fast, has better larger screen, camera flash, naviwheel, stereo speakers, and all the benefits of the latest OS commercially available as of now and lot more improvements.. but i love my n91's audio output no more no less, and i want it that way.. dont tell that i need to change my phone.. yeah i know dat but im honest to say its my dream phone but i cant afford n81 8gb right now.. :-( anyway, can anybody pls help me pls.. i hav trouble downloading songs.. pls email me alivance66@yahoo.com i would deeply appreciate if someone helps me thanks..aaron

                                  Bose headphones are perfect for N-series music phones. Just make sure you buy the headphones which are suitable for portable music players, because most Bose headphones rely on other enhancements (ie. audio cables) which are NOT designed for portable audio use.

                                  If you want the best portable headphones around, I highly recommend Sennheiser PX 100

                                    i'm almost convinced about n81 8gb. But i've seen with my n73 in certain songs there are some noise with my bose earphones. But in my ipod these noises go away if i keep the EQ off.And actually bose user manuel also suggest that EQ should be off to get best real sound quality. But my n73 me dose not have an EQ off option. It only has a default option which is no good. so will i've the same problem with my n81.
                                    & 2ndly dose the 3 ngage games are trail versions? &I've to buy them after a certain peroid of time.

                                      Battery Power for the N81 GB: can someone please tell me how to prolong my battery life? I have no tasks running in the background, I have hardly used it in one day when I had to recharge it once more. Should I reboot it? If so, how do you do it? Thanks.

                                        Thanx bro :-)
                                        And i totaly agree with you this needs to be more like 3250 Forum.
                                        Glad to hear you are also enjoying your N81, its a brilliant phone,and handles great tasks with ease.
                                        Im exactly like you, real heavy user, and il charge it once a day.
                                        Have you tried the new CorePlayer? Ive noticed that it now doesn't drop frame count,everything is VERY smooth and the fact that this phone supports high bit rate videos is an added bonus.
                                        Yep the RealPlayer it has aint great.
                                        The Ngage games are great, the Creatures Of The Deep game is brilliant.
                                        NOKIA did a great job its a well balanced phone.
                                        I also updated to V11.0.045 FW last month.
                                        I deleted Handy Taskman, i found that it made my N81 reboot A LOT and i got JbakTaskman now its running well, although we never have to worry about RAM now since it has quite a lot i use my the taskmanager for the shortcuts to open apps. :-)
                                        Realy a true Multimedia Computer.
