I’ve been using the Nokia N85 for 3 weeks now and let me tell you that this is the best phone to have right now. It has become my replacement for my previous favorite, the Nokia N95 8GB. The Nokia N96 was supposed to take this title, but that phone has been collecting dust on my desk because of the N85. In this first part of the review, I’ll cover the physical aspects.

Eldar from Mobile Review wrote a review of the Nokia N85 (translated) already and I am determined to make this my next Nokia phone. He explained that the N85 is not copy of the Nokia N95 with just a few changes. Instead, the Nokia N85 is one of the first devices built on different, newer chipsets.

I received a loan of the Nokia N82 from S60 Ambassadors program three weeks ago, and have been playing with it every since. Coming from the Nokia N73 that I currently use, this phone was definitely an upgrade. Read my impressions on music, camera, and web browsing on the Nokia N82.

After two weeks with the Nokia E71, I have prepared the first part of the review for this phone. I’ll talk about the physical aspects of the Nokia E71. A lot of people will be considering this phone because of the QWERTY keypad, slick shape and 3G compatibility in North America, but interested buyers need to consider if they can do with the multimedia features not up to par with Nseries phones.

The Nokia E71 is really popular right now, so let’s take a look at what others have been saying so far. I am listing down the recent reviews available from reputable sources and a brief summary of each one.
