Intro

The Nokia N86 Black is equal parts slider mobile phone and multi-media powerhouse. And with outstanding imaging capabilities, too, it could be the best Nseries phones ever.

Photography enthusiasts can ditch their digital cameras right now. The Nokia N86 is equipped not just with a great 8.1 megapixel camera but a wide angle Carl Zeiss lens, mechanical shutter and dual LED flash. In short, it’s significantly better than most dedicated, single purpose digital cameras.

Better still, you can then share the photos you’ve taken via MMS. Or you can upload them online direct from the handset through photo sharing facilities such as OVI and Flickr.

But that’s not all that this stand-out mobile phone has to recommend it. HSDPA support means that you can enjoy a fast and satisfying experience. It also means that you’ll be download movies, games and music in a trice, too.

Other features of the Nokia N86 include a 2.6-inch AMOLED screen, e-mail, FM radio, a media player, speakerphone, kickstand as well as a digital compass and GPS support for easy navigation in unfamiliar locales.

Owners of the N86 can expect battery life of up to 312 hours when the phone is in standby mode and up to six hours of talk time.

I disagree, I thought it did take a little getting used to the Nokia after having had a Sony Ericcson for so long, but it was worth it, great phone.

I've never had a Nokia before and thought it was going to be tough to get used to a new interface - turns out it's easy as pie! I'd reccomend!
