Nokia N82 Black

(this review is from the perspective of a Nokia Gamer)

Any Nokia Enthusiast with experience of hacking Nokia devices would definitely want the n82. It's one of the only phones left that has hardware acceleration, that means it can take advantage of certian games such as quake, quake 2, quake 3 (yes! it plays quake 3 at 25fps+)

See my youtube videos here:It will also play gameboy advance with sound and a frameskip of 1 (sometimes 2) at perfect speed. You can tilt it sideways and use the volume keys + camera and gallery button as A, B, L, and R.

Now about the official features of the device:

The 5mp Camera is excellent, I use it as my main camera. The Xenon flash is a big plus, and it makes every photo crisp and enhances the quality. With xenon flash pictures will never get blured, you can take a picture of a spinning fan or moving water and it will capture every droplet or stop all the fan blades in motion. It will light up a pitch black room as if it's lit up by daylight or fluorescent light.

You can see my flickr account here with some n82 pictures:If you'd like to see some samples of the Video recording I also have quite a few on my youtube profile (on the right side). It sure looks great!:

Speakers are LOUD, crisp, and of great quality. I haven't owned a louder portable device yet, and the n82's speakers are stereo, which just sounds awesome.

The screen can be easily seen in daylight. The material it's made of kind of reminds me of an old gameboy, the way that you have to have light shined at it in order to see. Well in the sunlight it just seems to enhance the screen rather than make it hard to see. However if you have a scratched up screen this will make it harder to see, as scratches light up in sunlight.

Also, the GPS is really nice, there is now OVI Maps 3 which is free. The older verions of Nokia maps used to cost. Depending on the day it can take anywhere from 5 seconds to 5 minutes to get a signal. The 5 minute days don't happen too often.

All-in-all this phone is awesome, It's a basic bar phone but packed with lots of features!
