Nokia N80 Phone Review

The Nokia N80 is a rather basic looking handset which has reverted to the old box type sliding mechanism of old. Originally hyped as the next stage in Nokia’s 3G stable it does not quite live up the pre-launch publicity. The handset itself comes in at a rather bulky 95 mm x 50 mm x 26 mm and weighs some 134g. However, the battery power is an acceptable 8 days standby with 3 hours talk time.

As you would expect with a 3G offering, the Nokia N80 has a very impressive 3 megapixel digital camera which supports both still photograph, video footage and video calling, all areas which are becoming more and more popular. The main screen display focus has been improved to 352 x 416 pixel resolution and is able to accommodate 262,000 colour variations - complimenting the high spec camera output.

The handset also accommodates a variety of music formats including MP3, AAC, m4a, eAAC+ and WMA. An FM radio connection and Visual Radio services also add to the overall audio output. The Nokia N80 also has the latest browser software pre-installed allowing fast, reliable internet access on the move. While perhaps not living up to all the pre-launch hype, the Nokia N80 still has a lot to offer.
