Nokia N82 : top of the range Smartphone

Is Nokia making the same marketing as Apple ? Right after its presentation the N82 is imediatly available. Top of the range Smartphone by its price and its really complete fubctionalities, the N82 isn't a direct competitor of the N95. The styles are different, if the N95 was made with mat colors, with the N82 we can see a comeback of monovolume shape and of metal finish with the very fashionable mirror effect.

N82 technical specs

Regarding its technology, N82 is really competitive. We can find here a cellular under Symbian 3rd Edition FP1 which is an evolution of the one we can find in the N95, a 2.4" QVGA screen, the 3G+ (tribande GSM and EDGE), the A-GPS, a Micro USB Plug, Bluetooth 2.0 (compatible with stereo earphones), Wifi 802.11b/g and especially a 5 megapixels digital camera with optical Carl Zeiss zoom and Xenon flash. The Nokia N82 also offers a TV output, a FM receiver, a music player MP3/AAC/eAAC/eAAC+/WMA/M4A and a USB 2.0 connection. It offers an internal memory of 100 Mo but will be delivered with a 2 Gb memory card.
