[heineken702]

hey Teo .... I stumble on these ... it does look ilke you're the only 1 who has it
Symbian-freak on GSMArena

[Apocalypso]

hot, dude, congrats on such a hot exclusive!

Thx Ricky, nice 2 C U here after while

Need to know several things:

Sure

1. Battery size/capacity

Battery is BP-6MT, nothing radically new here, it is lightweight Li-Ion based 1050 mAh battery that can be found in N81 and E51.

2. Is that metal or just chrome?

Unfortunately it is just a chromed plastic, I would like to see some real metal parts like on 6110 navigator. From other hand this is early proto model so maybe something will be changed till the official release.

3. Screen size ?

Comparable to N/3 and it features the QVGA resolution

4. Weight and size ?

Again, comparable to N73

5. OS version ?

Symbian OS v9.2, S60 3rd Edition, Feature Pack 1

did u actually get this cellphone , or is the review by someone else ? ? ?

Can?t give you that info, sorry, I already have too much problems to keep site alive and I don?t need another one with Nokia

:hmm: what phones that use the Font size feature?

All FP1 devices!??

Is the Rotate screen same function with the new RotateMe 2.0?

Yes, that?s it basically.. . .

do u think further firmware updates on the n95 will come with the auto rotate feature?

Not sure either but it doesn?t matter really as it is possible to implement via the 3rd party soft!

also what is the screen res on this phone? and is it the same size as the n95 8gb?

resolution is QVGA while the screen is smaller than on N95 series and therefore shown picture looks better because of the smaller pixel size!

Great. Here at last. So many questions.

I am ready to answer on all of them, one by one

Battery size ?

Answered above

Card slot ? (16gb will soon be here)

micro SD, no cards in the package, actually there is no package it is the early proto model.

Metal body or flakey chrome ?

Chromed plastic but this is proto so I can?t telly you how it looks like with the final production model.

Camera cover ?

Looks solid, simply to use, very well protected from accidental lens opening.

Hope to see a full review soon.

Do not expect I am not reviewing proto models

And the RAM The total we have and how much we will have after boot.

It is obvious from the given photos, 120/90 MB

Wow congrats Teo.. Whats the max external mem can it take?

Just like with the all FP1 devices, there is no limit, any microSDHC card, up to 32 GB practiacally.

how much comes with it?

Answered, there is no any kind of package, it is the proto and it comes as stand alone piece of hardware.

Amazing pics, hope the final production unit looks a little bit nicer though

I hope so.. . .

So what are you in Dubai for? SF isn't based out of there is it? .

NO SF headquarter isn?t in Dubai but this is the good reason to go there isn?t it?!?

Any idea when this will be announced, and can we get a pic with the shutter open please, .

Will do it for you

and of the non speaker side of the phone please? .

I have update the article and add a photo on your demand.. .

Also please tell me it triband HSDPA, I don't know if I can wait for a north american version.

Can?t test it in this network environment unfortunately.. . .

great article teo, as allways the photo sample is a little dissapointing tho impo

10X my friend, appreciate it

From the free ram pictures, looks like demand paging is there too.

Yep, but I can?t confirm it

Hope they bring the autorotate to the other phones. Theres always rotateme.

Yeah, as I said, we have 3rd party solution so it is not that important.. . .

So every N series phone from now on till touch ui going to get that multimedia menu.

It is indeed trend on N series devices.

wow Teo you are really lucky!.

Yes I am, finally some good news for me.. . .

hows the flash compared to n95?

Xenon is simply incomparable better, will try to make comparison photos.

can u show us the rotation?

Video?

software changes comparing to N95?

Soft is basically the same as we getting with N81.. . .

if u can take videos of above 2 pls do so.

can?t promises anything. .. .

thank u so much.

NP

Does it use a navi-wheel?

Yes it has!

I know that everyone ask but is there any release date? November, December, some Nokia event....?

There is an event, Nokia event soon but I can?t tell you anything more about.

And which colors will be available? Black, metal...?! White?

God knows.

Samplepicture is done in Dubai right?

Right!

btw, is this nokia graphic chip built in the N82, like it is in N93 and N95?

Still working on that, I have to make few more tests, will keep you informed.. . .

Great work.

Thx bro

This is a great phone for someone who doesn't have an N95 variant.

No doubt, for photography enthusiasts especially

IMO the slide adds class to a device!

Don?t care about really, features before all!

Teo , Hope you can produce a vid on this new lovely device.

Can?t say NO to lady so you?ll see the video sample

But They should have 2 things at MINIMUM a high resolution display and a TOUCH Screen!....

Agree, QVGA is pretty outdated nowadays but unfortunately we?ll have to wait a bit more to get the better touch screen from Nokia, they are working hardly on it

Not good RAM... at least 256 MB should be there.... ROM is also very poor. not sure how these phones are targeted... especially if you see the metecore improvements from N80 through N82

tend to disagree with you, speaking of the RAM 128 is enough at the moment but higher is always better and I guess that touch devices will features more RAM:

Any word on Processor Speed? is it same old single core 369MHz processor? consider at least 600 - 700 MHz Processor

Working on that but unfortunately all available soft fails to detect it

hey Teo .... I stumble on these ... it does look ilke you're the only 1 who has it

We have an exclusive, all net is full of the links back to SF

You can expect some more info soon, photos, videos etc.. . .

Have a look at eTen's 500x or X800.... you would know what I mean..

im not sure if you are saying those are good or bad devices

x500 (the x goes before the numbers( sucks pretty much (even for you, it has a qvga screen, 64mb of ram, slow procesor, a2dp sucks big time... only gps is nice )

x800 is the same basically (regarding to those specs) but with vga screen and a bit faster procesor

[asavvop]

Apo thank you again for this exclusive news! I am very excited about this phone! But I want to ask you something. Does this new phone feature 3d hardware acceleration just like n93, n95 and n95 8gb? Thank you again!!

[Apocalypso]

Ah NP, I am just happy 2 C that U found it attractive actually

BTW:
As I have already said, I am not sure jet, I have to make few more tests afternoon, the problem is that all available soft fails to detect the processor so I have to try one nasty trick to be sure

Teo

[thom85]
