Dumped my N95, bought N79



Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Looks simple but slick. Very light and slim. Interchangeable back covers . Has all the features of N95 with minor bugs fixed. Excellent battery life, surfed internet on wifi for hours and only one bar used; does not get overheated like N95. One button camera start-up is instant, not lagging like N95. High resolution camera and video. Easy music organiser. Auto-rotate screen. Keypads lights up in dark. Has N-gage games.
Cons: Dumbest predictive text ever - can't spell "eat", "stay", "drunk", "yesterday"," tomorrow" and other simple words., Keypads hard as nails, fingers are numbed from pressing. Has tendency to freeze when using headphones. Navi-wheel is great but does not work on menu scrolling. No free games; games are trial versions.
Opinion:
Bought it at SGD$693 in Singapore's Nokia shop one week ago. Comes with free 3 months GPS and free music downloads of one album. Despite the cons, no regrets so far.

 

N-82 upgraded



Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: light weight, stylish design, interchangeable covers and 5mp camera
Cons: lack of a xenon flash...............oops
Opinion:
To begin with, i got my n79 only two days ago. And i find it really good.....except for the lack of a good xenon flash just like the one i had on my old but great n82. However, the night mode works perfectly well and the photos come out well. I am also impressed with the overall design and feel of the phone. It feels light and most importantly it has almost all the latest features including wi-fi, automatic screen rotation, a 5mp camera to mention a few.

So, i feel quite happy with this new phone...
