I'm selling my N85 and getting the N79

It's been tough, a tough choice indeed.

I managed to have a look at an N79 a couple of days ago. I was super impressed. The OS was fast, the build quality was superb.

Looking at the specs on the N79, it is pretty much everything I use on a phone.

Wifi, GPS, Storage, 5MP Camera, Bluetooth.

I've become unhappy with the N85 for a while now, with the build quality. By no means is it drastic, but it's annoying.

I don't play Ngage, so the media keys are pretty much useles to me.

I suggest anyone who wants a mid range phone to have a look at this very close. It's a superb device. Even if it was only an hour or so I had a play with it.


Look out for a N85 for sale soon... ;)

As I have said before, the N79 is very underestimated. I would have the black one for sure. Hoping to trial one next as it happens.

Grey looks pretty slick to be honest.

The more you read the specs the better it gets. It's got a BL-6F 1200 mAh battery, it's 97g which when you hold it. Feels heavy enought to feel safe in your hand. Not not as heavy as other phones.

I must admit, I find USB charging on the N85 horrible. The Charger port is small and fragile and just not as easy as a normal mains charger, for me anyway.

Only got 50MB internal memory, but I've found I only run 2-3 themes and 3-4 apps on the phone anyway. So the 50MB isn't a problem for me. I don't use the Music player much on phones anyway.

I am really happy with the build quality of this phone. It felt rock solid, I'll be posting mine for sale tomorrow morning. And purchasing a N79 when I can :)

Hmm, I am not one for deal anymore. I stil with my £20 per month Simplicity from o2. Which includes free web browsing 600 Mins and 1000 SMS.

I'll buy the phone outright, cheapest I've found is £315. But with a 15% voucher off it bring it under £270
