An ambitious smartphone that lives up to its feature set; everything works well— from smartphone features, to imaging, WiFi, Bluetooth and a very good camera. Even more unique is that the N80 is quite compact and very stylish, two things that can’t be said of many smartphones.

Otherwise the Nokia N80 is one of few phones that actually has enough features to justify its high asking price. And with quad band GSM support, you can practically use this phone anywhere in the world.

Our opinion is that Nokia N80 is a brilliant business phone with powerful equipment and many great features. Probably many would not share our enthusiasm and will say that it’s too big or uncomfortable to use but we consider these drawbacks as minor.

Overall, the phone is an all rounder with a good feature set. The reception level of the WiFi should be enhanced and the picture quality taken at night should be enhanced. The phone is a bit bulky at this time when other brands are trying to impress with the slimer models. I will probably grab one if the price is right.

This is a seriously desirable, if flawed, phone that points to the future. One day, all mobiles will be like this.

The Nokia N80 is a high end handset, and I had high hopes for it. Unfortunately some of these weren’t met – perhaps I hoped for a little too much!

If you can afford it, the Nokia N80 delivers a powerful multimedia phone packed with advanced imaging features, PIM functionality, and good call quality.

The Nokia N80 is a feature-packed multimedia phone for geeks looking for the ultimate set of features.

Although the price is dear, the capable and well-rounded Nokia N80 is a great vade mecum for those as interested in imaging and music as in browsing the Web or making voice calls.

But, from a personal viewpoint and with an emphasis towards photography and application compatibility, Nokia will have to excuse me if I still consider the S60 2nd Edition-powered N70 and N90 to be, on balance, the current devices for me.

As a multimedia device, the N80 doesn’t stand out of the crowd with its common 3-megapixel camera and small display, but it combines fun, functionality and style in one, being one of the best-looking smartphones on the market today. Supporting Email client, brilliant internet browser, UMTS, and Wi-Fi makes it a powerful business device as well.

Good Gear Guide

If you are looking for a smart phone, but prefer its size to be in line with a regular mobile, then you can’t go past the N80. It offers a number of excellent features packaged in a sleek design and is only let down by a poor battery life.

The Gadgeteer

The N80 can really do it all. Every smart-phone should have wifi, and S60 is much better than Palm OS for many little reasons. Still, I don’t think it’s right for me. I miss the solid form factor of the Treo, all of the third party applications, and predictive T9 is no replacement for the thumb-board.

However we do worry that even after adding a sensible amount of storage (at our cost) the battery life is just not enough, does this mean we buy a new phone and have to buy the extended battery, at what price? and what additional weight!

If Nokia could have doubled the size of the N80’s battery, even at the cost of an additional 18g, I would have had no qualms about giving the device a highly recommended rating. But as things stand, the N80 earns only a “Recommended” rating because of the tarnish that the poor battery life puts on an otherwise shining example of mobile technology.

Nokia can be proud about having brought certain technologies to the smartphone world of handsets. However, their ability to address even the most basic of design requirements remain questionable – as proven by the N80, and those many (but selected) models that have come and gone in more recent times.

If you took all the customer requests from every mobile phone survey and added them to a phone, the result would be the N80. It will present you with features that you wouldn’t think you’d ever need, like video editing.

The hindrance is that the N-Series is high-priced but that doesn’t mean that they are the best phones. There are better phones at that price point and some for even lesser. For a good camera, I suggest the K790i.

The Nokia N80 is an exceptionally desirable mobile phone with its smooth titanium silver finish it oozes with sophistication. It is very similar to the Nokia N70 but it has a slightly higher specification, a slide opening mechanism & has a slightly darker finish to it appearance wise.

A phone that’s bursting at the seams with extras; possibly too many for its own good.
