      hyde, 01 Oct 2009how about it's battery life after upgrade it...is it better...???? the battery is fine for me 2 full days are quite enough for a high end fone ! just switch off the email 24hours delivery as it opens the 3G network all days and thats what ruins the battery

                  stvn7, 27 Sep 2009has anyone of you tried using the animation menu plus?For installing this application u need to hack ur fone nd that is pretty much on ur own risk. Presently none of the hack is working for a FP2 device like n86. If its so tell me as well.

                    josh, 01 Oct 2009would you say the led flash is bright like the xenon flash ... moreN86 LEDS vs N82 XENON

                    Still Images :

                    first of all no led can be compared with xenon light thats a fact

                    it's all about the way the lens process the incoming light

                    N86 ==> Got variable apperature means in low light the lens opens wide to recive maximum amount of light so the pic comes out bright and vice versa

                    N82 ==> fully depends only on its flash its fixed apperature so whatever the surroundings lightings the n82 depend only on his powerfull xenon light


                    Conclusion :

                    the n86 calculate and perform better in low light with his leds !! as the lens opens wide to recive every minimal piece of light here and there so the pics turn out stunning
                    the n82 gives out better pics only ONLY within the lenght of the affecting xenon lets say 2 meters or 3

                    far than that comes out variable apperature rule as the 86 process well with its LEDS

                    overall performance the N86 is far better than the N82 specially with its recent firmware v20

                    Video :

                    both devices with the N95-8GB capture VGA @30 fps
                    but somehow the N86 scores better and better

                    the Lens capture more light the video turns out more bright with vivid light in low light the video is bright and beautifull comparable with n95-8gb ot n82

                    Another thing i noticed when Zooming the pic quality doesn't detatorize or in other words stay clear and crisp in other devices when zooming the pic is washed out and becomes crappy !!

                    LED ---> here comes the rule of led ! u can turn it on to capture videos .. yes its bright too bright that it lightens a full room !!

                    Guys dont expect a Digi-Cam with this N86
                    But expect the Highest 8 megapixel camera phone quality ever made !

                    cheers !

                                guys i just updated my n86 firmware to v20.115 just by using my n86. Just go to Software Update and you can update the firmware there. It does has face detection. But one thing i noticed is that when the theme effects and sensor is on, when turn the phone to portrait to landscape or vice versa it takes lnng to change, and the effects is not there. But all in all the update is great.

                                  By the way the screen is more than perfect the camera superpass the innov8 the wide lens are really great accurate colors very very powerfull double LED really makes a different its 90% power of xenon (i own both n82 and n86) infact i like using led than xenon as we use it as light in video
                                  dont even compare W995 oe w1003o9ruw38 with N86

                                  the AMOLED screen kick ass of Normal TFTs screen in my old N95-8gb

                                  by the way i own the white version better than the black one

                                        SKH, 30 Sep 2009if compare the camera with w995, which wan will be better ?Quite honestly, the N86 has a better camera than the W995. The colour is more vibrant and closer to reality, maybe it's because the N86 has better lens and an amoled screen.

                                        However, I chose the W995 over the N86 because it is a better phone overall for me.
