Need a N series mobile!

[SunnyChahal]

Hello all!
I am looking for a gaming phone from Nokia N series.The things I need in my phone are:
1.GPS
2.Bluetooth
3.Nice audio like N96
4.3G and WiFi compatibility
5.All the blah blah a good phone should have.
I have N85 in my mind but my budget is 25K. What say people? Shall I go for it? How much will it cost?

[krates]

N85 rocks....... i think yogi bought that for 23K....... N85 has all that what ever n-series ever had.........

Yup it is the best equipped n-series till date............ and in sound it is just 1 step behind N96 you will hardly notice any change .............

[SunnyChahal]

How big hole will it burn in my pocket?

[krates]

if you buy it from the mobile store you will get it for Rs 23649 /- and if you just try hard searching some shops you will get if for around 23k..

[SunnyChahal]

I just can't search out the whole Delhi just to save 600 bux. This phone is mine!!

[dreamcatcher]

It has some build quality issues you should look into. Wobbly slider,peeling paint and broken buttons should act as a startup.

[SunnyChahal]

What about SE phones for about 25k?
SE or Nokia only.

[dreamcatcher]

Dont think you will get a gaming SE phone for 25k. Get the PSP na. and get the N79 to go along with it.Or get the C905 if you want something different.

Except for a minor wobble in the slider there are no problems with the N85. I should know having used it for over a week now. It is a very well built phone.

[shashank_re]

How about XpressMusic 5800?

[gforce23]

The C905 is your option in the SE portfolio around the 25K mark. Okay, the W960 has it all too but it's just massively overpriced for the outdated (and dead) platform that it offers. The G900 is another option at circa 20k.j
If you're willing to forego WiFi, the W980 and W902 are two nicely equipped music-oriented phones.

Check a few reviews and a few feedbacks from users in this forum, you will get your ans. For krazzy, you got a review phone which surely had all the glitches wiped off.

I already own a PSP Slim n lite,want a good mobile like N82. I currently own a iPhone which lacks many good features like bluetooth,good audio,GPS,a bittorrent client(can be installed on symbian I guess) etc etc. I can extend my budget but I don't wanna regret after spending 25K! I owned a S500i quite a while back,was quite decent. I want the phone to have good build quality,looks and performance. Does N85 have a GPU like N82?

[dreamcatcher]

Nopes, the N85 doesn't have a dedicated GPU. You can go for the C905 if you can extend your budget by 5k.Its a good phone with all the features you need in a phone.Only downside being its not a smartphone.

[SunnyChahal]

Which Nokia mobiles have a dedicated GPU?

[dreamcatcher]

N82 and N95 AFAIK.

[SunnyChahal]

What advantage do we have with a smartphone over a normal one?
Now it's C905 vs N85. C'mon people help me!

[damngoodman999]

PLEASE DONT GO FOR N-85 PLEASE NO NO NO .................. check with the kalyan review on the N-85 thread

[dreamcatcher]

Support for thrid party apps.Support for more codecs. But since you already own an iphone i doubt you would use any of the apps that apply with the N85.

Pluses of the C905-Brilliant 8 mp cam,best xenon flash in the market,great build quality,stereo sound recording.
N85-Symbian,VGA video recording,dedicated music keys.

N82 has Gfx accelerator and dual processor which is fast in operating ... NEVER hangs up


Iam proud to own N82

[SunnyChahal]

I need a smartphone to keep in sync with PC and all. Please recommend me a phone which has good support for third party apps,plugins etc. Budget can be extended to 30K as I'm gonna sell the iPhone. Please guys be clear. I've got no clue of what I may end up with.

[SunnyChahal]

HTC sukkz!! I don't even wanna consider it! Just temme what's the difference between a normal and a smartphone and which one to buy,N85 or C905?

If u compare with N85 ....... C905 is really a gr8 phone

C905 is fast

[IronManForever]

@Sunny1211993..
You gonna sell iPhone 2G? It looks so cool.. Nowhere compared to iPhone 3G.

BTW you said you wanna game. Don't go for SE. Nokia is way better with smartphonish features and gaming. N82 is a powerful phone but gaming would not be easy with its difficult keys.

Why not N95 8GB? Will feel a bit iPhonish with inbuilt flash memory. Has good dedicated buttons for music. Gaming should be good as well. And I think you can forego Xenon Flash available in N82.

CORRECTED

[damngoodman999]

BTW i said early N82 is fast in operating ,, gaming will be difficult with tiny keys camera gr8

i never play games in my N82!!!!!!!!1

[IronManForever]

@damngoodman999

Actually due to the powerful hardware; I enjoy playing games on it.. Racing games can be played pretty well. Like NFS:Most Wanted..

On the contrary, review samples are some of the worst of the lot. They have often been with other reviewers before and have been abused. Considering that the N85 I got was in great condition. Compared to that the W595 I have feels like it's been through World War 2. Also review samples are retail units and not some special ones.

Sunny if you are getting a phone under 25k then get the N85. If you can spend up to 30k then get the C905.
