Nokia Launching a 12 Megapixel Camera Phone

As we all know, Nokia may well be the only top brand that is let behind in the Megapixel race. Brands like Samsung, Sony Ericsson etc have announced their 12 Megapixel phones which are on their way to the markets while Nokia’s top cameraphone, the Nokia N86 sports only an 8 Megapixel camera.

Nokia said that it doesn’t believe in the Megapixel count and wishes to focus more on the lens quality etc. But since most of this is not known to public, they will opt for the devices from Samsung etc with more Megapixel count and Nokia will end up losing a lot of sales.

Nokia N85 vs N82 – Part 1 : Hardware

After having brought you the Nokia N85 picture gallery review, we tackle a small comparison with its older brother, the N82. The first part of this comparison is axed on hardware and design.

Both devices bring the black plastic and shiny look in the design category. The N85’s screen is bigger and more vibrant due to its OLED technology.

The N85 is shorter, due to its slider design and also thinner, making it more pocketable and easily carried in a hand. The replacement of the useless Gallery key (N82) with a keylock key (N85) is a welcome addition as it allows to quickly lock and unlock the handset.
