that my n96 looks better than n95 and n95 8gb
but theres that nagging doubt that i want the top of the range. it's an odd irrational pain.
the tv aspect is useless in the Uk
its been on pre-order @ nokia.co.uk for a few days for £525. I went into the flagship nokia store and they were taking pre-order names. I asked what price / date and they didn't know. I said it was £535 on nokia.co.uk and they said it would be way more than that!!!!
Typically the regent street store is £10 - £30 more expensive than nokia.co.uk
best thing is OLED
and that it
it as a small screen (same size as the n95)
i have used the n95 8gb and the n96
and the bigger screen makes up for the oled
also the n85 as crap phone internal memory
oh dear if the n95 is to go by
so there
for me i dont like internal memory, unless you have the option to have a memory aswell!! a bit like the n95 8gb, i dont like that, but the 16gb samsung internal memory is ok because you still have the option for a memory card, but this is my personal opinion, and every body is different
i was on about the internal memory
not the 16gb, but the ram it uses to run software and so on
the n85 as loads less than the n95
its crap
please note that the n96 as 16gb plus also as memory card (i also have 8gb in my n96
i hope this helps
basically internal memory is crap, unless you have the option to have a memory stick in it, then its ok, i think all fones without memory card slot, are crap, because so much things will go wrong, when your phone has to be repaired, and trust me it will hav to be repaired because the n95 and the 8gb version has so many issues, its unreal!!!!!
it also as memory stick

Cheer,
Nokia News
Its the upgrade from N95 8GB (which sud have been N96)
i wrote a whole page of info regarding the difference between N85 and N96 but jus as i finished it deleted it by mistake so am gona make it short n sweet.
Have had my N96 for 2 weeks returning it back and waiting for N85
N85 faster CPU then N96
DVB-H not available in UK till approx 2012
N9 doesnt have 3D accelerator, N85 does- This effects the gaming experience and also video recording quality.
slow CPU plus 16GB on N96 makes browsing through the fone/starting apps very slow and keeps lagging
Battery Power Difference...talk time, video playback etc...........
U can charge N85 through USB but not with N96
Beta FM Transmitter on N85
N85 has lens cover N96 doesnt
Nokia N85 has new screen technology called AM OLED (this makes viewing vids/pics etc more desirable
N85 has smaller in size (screen size 2.6") more comfortable to hold but N96 has bigger screen 2.8"
Build quality is rubbish on N96, makes it feel cheap
Navi Wheel on N85 not on N96
theres plenty more stuff which are not so important but cant rememba at this moment... my overall view the upperhand N96 had was DVB-H but it not availble yet... i wud different go for the N85 cos its most hightech Nokia multimedia fone available at the moment..............
But if u not really botherd about functons and u need a good Nokia fone jus go for the 6300 its a brilliant fone to use for just for fone calls............
I bought an N96 from cpw and it's superb. The cpu is only slow if you dont charge it for 16hrs. I charged mine for 16hrs and the cpu is considerably fast. I can watch movies in high quality gaming is good quality (better than me N95)and the battery lasts me at least two days and by then it still has 2 bars. only bad think about the N96 is the camera sometimes blurs when you click the capture buttons and the live tv is useless for now. If the N96 had the OLED display, 8mpx camera and same screen size but a lighter and smaller and slimmer case then I can bet you the N(^ would be beta but in my opinion the N96 is beta than most phones but I would like it to be a bit cheaper, maybe £450
I read more and more about this N85 and... It has convinced me! Ok, the screen will be a 2.6" and not 2.8" but this is not important for me. I prefer quality and not .2" size. Also, the dimension of n85 are smaller than n96.
Infact are 103x50x16mm and weight 128g. (Excuse me but i don't know in inches) The out audio power is fantastic and you can recharge via USB. Have also the FM Transmitter! In Italy is forbitten but... I'll use it in my car or at home, obviously :-D
Natural... A N8x series is normally have less features than N9x series. But this time, Nokia had worked fine!
Last thing... price. In Italy the N85 cost 450€ (euros). The N96 cost 720€!!!!!! For what? Only a "larger" screen and dvb-h, not available till end of this year (this is the hope of n96 users).
No no no, i prefer the N85 and I agree with J_UK: The N85 is the best Nokia multimedia device at the moment.
