Nokia N81 and n82

Nokia must be the most popular manufacturer of non-touchscreen smart phones? Nseries phones are not only known for their smart phone features like being able to support third-party applications, they're also very popular for their advanced hardware like the built-in camera with video playback. The MP3 players in Nseries phones are not so bad ether. In fact, of all the N95's super phones features, the music playback is the most well received by critics.

Now we have two more Nseries smart phones. They will not break any technological records, but as improvements on older models they make very good sense. The N81 is supposed to be the successor of the N91, which was among the first batch of Nseries phones Nokia announced. The N81 has 8GB of onboard memory and a sliding feature which the N91 has. The older N91 has the more original form factor, to be honest, with the N81 looking like the LG Chocolate sans the touchscreen. The 2 megapixel camera is shared by both phones, and so is the Wi-Fi and 3G connectivity. The man difference is in the form factor and weight. Nokia's new music smart phone should be easier and lighter (about 20gms lighter) to carry.

The N82 (two pics on the right) has a whoppng 5 megapixel camera with XenonLED flash. Something budding amateur photographers should appreciate. It also has Wi-Fi and HSDPA. It also has GPS and a TV out feature. It's almost as feature-packed as the N95. The N82 should be officially announced Q4.
