Dani , 13 Sep 2008and im sorry to say this N85 will probably have worst quali... moreFirst of all, Focal length doesnt determine image quality.
Secondly, mobile-review.com and smape.com have done reviews of the n85 and they confirm that it has the same picture quality as the n95 or n82 or n79.
Finally, even though its a mid range phone, the n85 can give phones like the n96 and innov8 a run for their money as it has a few things that both flagship phones dont have.

    @Dani
    The Nokia N96 doesn't deserve the title Nokia's 'flagship', because it offers barely anything better than whats on the Nokia N95. It using an ARM9@264MHz instead of ARM11@369Mhz, I would go a Nokia N85 any day! The only thing that I can see the N96 has over the N85 is DVB-H TV broadcast receiver.

    By the way, my mate has a Nokia N95, which of course has a ARM11, and he overclocked the core from 322MHz to 469MHz. That's a 147MHz overclock. Not bad for a phone.

        louie, 12 Sep 2008yeah.. right! good camera are u saying?? with that junk cyb... moreand im sorry to say this N85 will probably have worst quality images then K850i

        since N85 will have a smaller focal length size then N95 and N82

        K850i is still on top of the 5 MP Phones..
        Samsung INNOV8 is the best ALL ROUND MULTIMEDIA DEVICE coming to the market!!!
        C905 and Xperia X1 are both hits ..

        Nokia hasnt made anything like Xperia X1 yet..im talking touchscreen ..


        let me just get this clear before you fight back

        N85 is a mid-range phone
        N96 is the Flagship
        N79 is the mid-range

        so dont you dare compare this N85 will INNOV8(the new KING) or C905


        yeah the N85 is a Nokia WOW LOL!

        theres so many other phones to choose from other companies.

        i mean please get a Sony Ericsson and then youl take my words for it there EXCELLENT and COMPLETE PHONES!

          Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970Dude, whats with the insults? Did i say bigger megapixels dont make a difference? I didnt. Obviously bigger megapixels mean bigger pictures and slightly more detail, but theres more to picture quality than just that.

            taste hasnt got anything to with Brands

            you get what you like ..no matter what the brand label is

            if you go for Nokia just becuase its a Nokia then you clearly have been brainwashed by them


            think out of the Box man!

            theres Samsung, LG, Sony Ericsson, Apple, HTC, Blackberry phones to choose from....

            just think more broadly ..theres so many phone brands to choose from!!!!!

                          Why Nokia N85 will be more expensive than Nokia N79? Their Technical Specifications are almost same?!

                            updated post, 12 Sep 2008you are asking if 8 megapixel is really necessary. i was al... more8 megapixel camera phones or those with higher megapixels will not be as popular as 5 megapixel cam phones. Why?
                            Take a look at standalone digital cameras. Most people who buy cameras buy those with 5 megapixels. The same thing will happen with the mobile phones. One of the reasons n95's camera became so popular is because 5 megapixels was the bridging point between mobile phones and standalone cameras. This is why people are asking themselves if 8 megapixels is really necessary.
                            To the guy below,
                            The number of megapixels does not determine the quality of a picture. Its all about how the software handles the processing and the size of the lens.

                              Karim, 12 Sep 2008Nokia is the best!!!!!! Samsung, HTC, Sony ericsson, and ot... moreSamsung and LG are the worst in Market. LG do fancy nice packaging with low quality and nothign insdie the phone to talk about. Samsung they need to start to know how package the phone beside using Al. Looks so bad and cheap with alto of Battery life problem. I tried 2 times and both times I end up selling the phoen after oen week. Nokia by far is head in quality and applications. Only I wish they would catch up with touch screen. I would like to see Nokia bring somehing like Omnia make by Nokia quality and Sony G900 Idea with Nokia idea and quality. I hope coming soon.

                                      Well im a big nokia fan... ive been through most of the n series phones and i like the n82 the best... well this n85 seems to have quite a lot of features... if it had xenon flash it would be the perfect phone... Samsungs i8510 is very good... but is the 8 mega pixel camera really necessary?? i mean 5 mega pixel takes crytal clear pics as it is... they r just tryin to say they have a better camera than nokia... but i know nokia will rise to meet the samsung i8510... its just a matter of months.. Well SE to me sucks... They r not user friendly... too much button pressin.. and they also have small displays... they only have loud playin music.. thats all... Nokia rules.. im gonna get an N79 to try it out when its released..

                                        with those crap pale images that your good cybershot produced?? i don't think so.
                                        Nokia has all in one multi media device.!

                                        yeah!! u read it right!! ALL-IN-ONE-MULTI-MEDIA Device.
                                        which MOSTLY SE don't have.

                                        go in SE section not here. we don't need people using cheap mediocre phones here. Nokia phone are for people with good taste.
