Nokia N82 preview: First look

05 December 2007
The Nokia N82 seems like the next flagship of the Nokia N-series of multimedia-oriented smartphones. Although it looks pretty much the same as Nokia N95 specs-wise, it outmatches the current heavyweight champion with a xenon flash and...

The K850i had a weaker flash due to its light sensor behind. It senses that the object it is going to take is close so it emits a weaker flash. Don't believe me? Those who owned a k850i can try this experiment yourselves. In a dark room, hold your hand around 30cm away, then use the k850i and focus on the hand with LED assist. Now take the shot, and remember the flash power it emits. Now remove your hand and focus on your room. Take another picture. You will notice that the flash power it emits is TOTALLY DIFFERENT!!! This is a part of a new feature the k850 has over the k800i. SO, IF the editor wants to compare the flash power emitted from both phones, he should test it on a room, not a any close objects, cas the k850i will adjust its flash power!

    hey dudes k750 is the godfather of sony ericson.and k790,800,810,850 etc.are the childrens of sony family.


    some persons said that nokia n95,n82 have many features except 5 mp camera.

                Hi!

                Now I been using my N82 for 2 weeks and it’s greet!! Good and sold construction, I’ve been using N95 and K850 before, and they can’t measure up to the N82. Didn’t like the N95 because the crape slid and didn’t like the K850 because of the “xtra button push”

                  N82. it's not beautiful...Keypad is a copy of Sony ericson, Xenon flash introduced after Sony Ericsson and OVERALL.see the position of MEMORY CARD ...Full copy of Sony Ericsson.



                  Nokia copys SE for the keypad? Dude, dont forget nokia have the n91 it's announce at 2nd quater of 2005.
                  and right now none of SE's walkman phone can take over n91's loudness and bass. n95 is only like 3/4 of n91's loudness when SE phones loudness can only compare to n95. so it other ways, walkmans phone for n91 users is just a joke.

                  Do you think nokia wana copy SONY, so called so so only that's why the slogan is Like no others. haha. what a joke.
                  Sony wont put all their technology into the phone as they have to share the profit to ericsson. think twice.

                  does sony have an all in one phone? answer is no and full stop.

                    dunno why all you guys aer talking about 8gig in nokia phones. When the max memory this phone can take is 16gig HCSD card, which obviously out performs the 8gig of previous nokia's. I think Nokia are looking at bigger capacity than the 8gig probably to compete the large capacity of Ipod or maybe the IPhone and I did say capacity of the IPOD OR IPHONE! nothing else!

                      The keypad not VERY original. Reminds me of SE K550 & W610. Thought they can get away with it.

                        i dont understand why the SE fanboys cant accept the fact that nokia can or could make better cameras; those fanboys keep showing that they are just little kids who whine about anything...

                        BTW its well known that SE targets younger age market more than Nokia, Nokia phones are for older people and business men...

                              N82 shots with xenon Flash seems not as GSMArena says that it's alot stronger than K850. seems that N82 applies agressive Flash ISO to appear brighter than K850s as you can see there are terribly lots of noise in N82 pictures in darkness compared to K850. another misleading fact is that the K850 they used seemed to have some bugs in the xenon Flash as the Xenon Light doesn't sync properly with the time K850 captures as the current K850 users acclaim that's why K850 shots appear darker.

                                  Nokia, don't pretend to by a cybershot phone... Sony Ericsson is produces the best camera phones in the market. The explanantion is really simple - CYBERSHOT.
