You guys can get the full spec info, as well as a pic, here on Symbian-Guru. I broke the news back in May, and will be quick to let you know of any other updates I get.

Welcome to Mobile--review .

rcadden, boy! you bloggers are so fast, after I posted this thread, within one hour it's on justamp and symbianguru.

Aware

Ooo, my possible N93 replacement finally surfacing......

Been a long time coming......

TreRep

finally!!!!! hope to get it soon

Ruhul

Hope, nokia will publish some live picture too.

M H

Nokia is waiting way too long to announce that phone... So long that there`re already dozens of chinese copycats- and the real deal isn`t even announced yet!

It can be the new n95, but I don`t give a damn about n82 anymore.... More exciting phone to wait is g800 IMO.

Jo

yay i am so happy

Wilbur

sms, nice find. Looks like long wait will be finally over soon, I hope...

Dr Tran

I just hope there's enough RAM

athos1111

m.h, don't really see the connection (other than the camera) between these two, but you obviously fell for the Samsung and that's your thing to decide. But still these two aren't (going to be) in the same league.

sms, nice find indeed! That means that it should be less than 1 month.. can someone remind me if an announcement/happening/party is known to be held within this timeframe?

sms

first, thank you, second, I can, look at the "upcoming events" section in the first post:

Aidan

fp1?-ugh, that kinda sucks imo. still, i'm sure the specs will more than make up for it.

Nnorway

5- FP1

Still FP1?? hope no and will be Fp2.... if not.. when will be the FP2? in the year 2025?? the FP1 would be the longer feature pack of the history... hope will be FP2

faw

If it's FP2 then it will win the battle between it and the N95 8GB, if not then I'm not sure at all which I'll get

you can't blame him for choosing the best Mweb6161, I think germany isn't infested with PAYG phones as England.


Aidan James, Nnorway, N78 will be the first with FP2, and it's coming in the end of Q1, see my post in the "nokia announcements" thread.

and yes, I agree, we're bored with FP1, we want some new blood in the veins of our nokias.

athos1111

sms, sorry, didn't realize your summary managed the events too. Even better! Great work!

bicu_23

the next episode is coming : http://www.nokia.co.uk/play

sms

all thanks to playdead, chlettn and Mweb6161 for letting me do this, and their support.

already posted in the "nokia announcements" thread, please keep this thread about the N82.

Nnorway

N78 in Q1 will be announce? or will come to shops?

Yes too long Fp1... i guess when will come 9.5....... or many just after 9.3

alexandr3

Didn't they say FP2 would launch only on 2008?

I think this N82 will be a mix between N95 (GPS, 5MPX cam) and N81 (smaller screen, sensitive buttons...)

At least we won't have to wait for the beggining of december. Maybe they antecipated this to give more atention to the TS phone in December's Nokia World?

mustis

Now there is a symbian-guru rumour, that the camera module has been upgraded to 7 megapixels. That would explain the delay
http://www.symbian-guru.com/welcome/...n82-gets-.html

M H

It`s kinda stupid to say that, but that`s impossible.

chlettn

Don't think so...and even if, without a serious innovation in lens technology and/or positioning, I don't think 7MPx would bring a noticeably better quality.

That would be nice - unlikely (presenting something like that just before christmas might kill off a few xmas sales), but nice. I think we'll only see a TS handset at 3GSM in February, though, not earlier...

Ronka

QVGA screen only? (again??)
No optical zoom?

and lets hope for huge RAM.





please tell me something new

Ruhul

Ronka, ok n82 is still QVGA, and on optical zoom. But k850 doesn't have it either.

Mweb

Indeed, but the Samsung G800 DOES have OZ, that's the standard that's being set for 2008!!
Can't see the N82 holding any appeal over the N95-8gb TBH.

Ronka

Did i say K850i has one? when did i ever mentioned K850i??

Louis_Loh

Agreed, unless they add in FP2 and OZ (and perhaps a VGA screen).

knights

you used invisble font
well, you cant blame others why SE phones will always be associated in your name...
TS will be more intresting... i thought we'll see TS from nokia this year, but its already Q4..

Ronka

Nokiaç copy of iphone that they have showed weeks ago? it looks more interesting than iphone TBQH

athos1111

mweb6161, are you really comparing the all-in-one Symbian candybar to the "dumbfone" g800 (with Samsung's UI "lagging behind when it comes to the core functionality" - quoted from Eldar - even compared to the S40 and A200 fones...), with nothing more to offer than the camera?

Also - there are many who don't like the double-slider form of the N95-8GB, the reasonably bigger volume/size and the missing lens cover. Those people would not hesitate to choose the "N82" over the slider even if they lose the large flash memory and screen. -imho-

Mweb

Believe it or not athos not EVERYBODY wants a smartphone , and the vast majority of performance enquiries on here relate to the camera.

athos1111

mweb6161, you're right about not everyone needing a smartfone, but still these two shouldn't be compared, since noone uses their fones for taking pictures all day. I think G800 has no direct rival when "not being smartfone" is a criterion (not even k850 or w910 can be compared to it and I don't even think that there is any "dumbfone" more expensive than what g800 is said to be - 550€).

I was only saying that if you realizes that you _can_ live with the Symbian, you may find better solutions for the same money (I could even bring up i550 which - afaik - will also be sold for ~550€, and is the best Samsung offering to date). imho

Nnorway

do you think that first TS hanset would be the "last" multimedia smarthpone with the most avanced features? like at least 5mpx camera,, good music sound,hsdpa. wimax.. TV out, and all the other things,, and so?

chlettn

Nnorway, I do think that one TS device will be the N95 "successor" - in the same do-it-all manner. So, I really think they will make one of these touchscreen-handsets as feature-packed as possible, with others coming along that are a little lower-end. And I think the high-end one will be the first, to mark Nokia's reappearance in the touchscreen-device-class with a loud bang

Of course, it's just a gut feeling, without anything to back it up

Freddo

I haven't really checked these UAP xml files in the past, but I looked in this and saw that the model name is "N82-1". You think this means there will be any future N82 upgrades, like how the N95 recently got new model upgrades?

chlettn

Freddo, afaik every Nseries handset has another number "attached" to its primary model number. My N70 is also an N70-1...

It doesn't necessarily mean that there will be other versions...

athos1111

Freddo, there used to be different suffixes attatched to the american versions or to the "planned" versions at least. I think N95-1 is the original EU version with smaller battery and lens cover, and the N95-3 is the US 3G version (and the N95-8GB should have a third number, but I can't find it right now). There were two N73 models of which I believe only one was released (as of now - the ME version doesn't seem to hold any difference spec wise).

alexandr3

A man can dream, huh?

Super Chimp

I would rather have the OZ + 5MP of the G800 than the 7MP & no OZ of the N82. Afterall it seems to be no mobile phone maker has got the best from 5MP let alone moving onto 7MP. It sounds to me like a gimmick to help the marketing people to sell it to the public as the next big thing.

MTM

I agree that optical zoom is more important than the extra 2 megapixel. I would still choose the N82 over the G800 overall, though, unless G800 turns out to have almost all the features of the N82

How sure are we that it will be 7 megapixel? Would be quite a jump to make already, seeing as most other manufacturers are only know coming with their 5-megapixel models. I can see the logic behind it, though, as it would position it alongside most compact digital cameras in most consumers' minds, since they are often 7-8 megapixel these days.

Dr Tran

2048x1536
That's 5MP. Its in the n82 xml file.

I very much doubt they've changed it to 7MP.

beatmag

its the N95-2 , its written on the first page of the Nokia N95 8Gb manual.

it appears nokia should understand that the american market is quite important, a few other countries are also coming out with 850mhz UMTS bands. Also I have been hearing about 900mhz UMTS bands, I have no idea what they are going to do. Its all too confusing.

athos1111

Dr Tran, 2048*1536 is 3MP, and even that only refers to the max picture size IN MMS, the camera resolution is not in the UAP file.

Jasper Jones

7mp in a phone right now is just plain stupid imho.. they should concentrate more on making better sensors at the moment, to get quality thats comparable to average digicams.. 7mp isnt better than 3mp if the quality sucks.. of course a higher resolution is always nice, but its not the main point which makes a good cam imho!

chlettn

Stay on-topic, people.

No need for personal attacks!
