Nokia N80
The Nokia N80 is a spankin’ new phone with tons of cool extras to satisfy any gadget junky, and the business features for the pickiest of executive buyers. The phone itself gets nice reception and seems to simply work well as a phone, plain and simple. I have often found that the more gimmicky the phone, the worse the reception for some reason. This phone pretty good though. The styling is pretty nice, being very compact when closed, and sleek and fitting when open.
The first thing that really pops on this phone is the LCD screen. It is big, clear, and bright. The resolution on the screen is also very clear. I quite enjoy it. As well, the built in camera will not disappoint. It is a fantastic 3 megapixel digital camera, so you know you’ll be able to capture those pictures with a better than blurry result.
Other features on this little firecracker include Wi-Fi, office tools, Bluetooth, a second camera, and a music player. With an arsenal of features like this, you should neve be bored with your phone.
The one big downside for this phone is the price. I’ll be honest, this one will break your bank account at a hefty price of anywhere from $480-$650, depending on the retailer you choose to buy from. The reason for the price tag is that this phone isn’t offered by any service providers. By this, I mean that they don’t offer discounted prices on the phone itself if you commit to a service plan.
Overall, if you can spare 500 bucks, and you really want a good phone, then maybe the Nokia N80 is for you.
