Phone Features
The Nokia N82 has a large 2.4-inch screen with a 240 x 320-pixel resolution and support for 16.7 million colors. It comes with a new content driven 3D multimedia menu and includes a convenient orientation sensor that rotates the user interface automatically between horizontal and portrait mode. It's based on S60 software operating on the Symbian OS, enabling you to personalize the N82 by choosing from the Ovi family of Nokia internet services, including Nokia Music Store, N-Gage games and Nokia Maps. The phone has a 100 MB internal memory, and it's expandable via MicroSD memory cards (up to 4 GB in size).
The Nokia N82 actually has two cameras, a high resolution camera on the back of the device (the main camera in landscape mode) and a lower resolution camera on the front (CIF resolution, 352 x 288). The main 5-megapixel camera on the back of the N95 supports an image capture resolution of 2592 x 1944 pixels, and it features a focus range of 10cm (4 inches) to infinity, up to a 20x digital zoom for still images, and a Xenon flash. (Note that the low-resolution camera on the front can provide two-way video calling; however, at this time no U.S. carrier offers this service.)
Fast camera activation, autofocus with a dedicated autofocus assist lamp, fast reloading between shots and DVD-like quality video capture make it a truly convenient and credible tool for capturing and telling your life stories. You can also capture crisp videos at up to a 640 x 480-pixel resolution at 30 frames per second (fps) in 24-bit/16.7-million colors. Images are saved as JPEG files while videos are recorded in the MPEG-4 file format with the .mp4 file extension, or in the 3GPP file format with the .3gp file extension (sharing quality). Photos and video clips can be enjoyed on a compatible television thanks to the device's TV out feature and support for Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) technology.

Excellent camera phone but not quite perfect
I've had this phone for about two weeks now and used pretty much everything on it and I'm proud to report that this phone was well worth the investment. I am a big time gadget geek and I had been watching this phone for the last year. I flew out to Chicago and checked it out in April at the Nokia flagship store and was a little turned off by the keypad so I waited patiently for more reviews (and newer phones) to come out before I would make my final decision. Excited by the new phones that Nokia had in the making, I later found myself disappointed by the fact that none of the new ones include a xenon flash, which is a huge downgrade in terms of picture quality, which is my primary interest in this phone. After all was said and done, I spent my points on my credit cards and finally sprung for one of the black N82s. I couldn't be happier with my choice.
Pros:
-The phone is very responsive with little or no lag time between menus and applications. This is due to the huge amount of available RAM on the phone and fast processor.
-Photos come out amazing for a camera phone, and it's actually now the replacement for my standalone digital camera. It's great having a camera wherever I go without having to carry extra stuff.
-Web browsing is effortless and the standard browser has great speed, at least for me, but I've updated the firmware to v30 which has increased battery life significantly and speeds up performance.
-The calender application works great, though it's a little slower to put in entries than my old phone because it's a little more complex.
-GPS works fast, and I can usually get a lock-on in less than a minute, even without network assistance.
-Uploading photos to web couldn't be easier and geo-tagging is a cool feature to see on my Flickr account.
-Tons of available apps for the S60 OS
-Mp3 player works great, albeit very simple, but is sufficient at playing music well.
-Decent build quality, though I wish mine wasn't made in China.
Cons:
-The phone is a fingerprint MAGNET! Be prepared to wipe the phone down regularly to keep it smudge free, especially if you have oily fingers.
-The flash almost always produces redeye in my photos. I don't know if it's because of the timing or position of the flash or what, but I have also yet to try the redeye reduction setting. So far though my pictures are coming out great except for this one aspect.
-The GPS does not work as well as my standalone unit, but in a pinch it's a great feature to have.
-Battery life could be better. I'm somewhat of a power user and I have to charge the phone every day or it will die on the second day.
-Yes the keypad is a little on the small side, but I still find it to be very functional and I can text just as fast witht his phone as my last phone. The raised buttons have a very tactile feel. Just keep your nails trimmed and that should help with the button presses.
Conclusion:
For what you pay, this is the most feature laden phone in it's class with a nice balance of size and functionality. The screen size is sufficient for most uses and the phone works well as a PHONE, unlike the iphone that I want so badly for them to make right. If given a second chance, I would have had no hesitation to buy this phone when it first came out. Now that the price has gone down this phone is a bargain, and until they come out with an S60 phone with a xenon flash and Nokia reliability, I can see myself keep this phone for quite a while. Theres only a few things I wish that they can do for the next generation and that includes the xenon flash, 8mp camera, gps, wifi, touch screen, qwerty keyboard. Until then this is the best that they get without spending an arm and a leg for the even higher end phones.

Awesome Camera
I just got this phone and it is awesome. The camera takes good pictures especially at night or dark places. Although the picture quality is not as good as stand alone cameras, the quality surpasses any camera phone in the market right now. The lens cover really helps in protection. The OS is fairly fast too, at least faster than the OS in my old T-mobile Dash.
There is one drawback: I can't text as fast without a full QWERTY pad. I hope Nokia will make a high megapixel phone with full optical zoom and flash and full QWERTY pad. Maybe in a year? :)

todo en uno
El nokia N82 es uno de los mejores ejemplares de la serie N. Su cámara de 5 MP su acceso a WLAN y su GPS integrados y su sitema cuatribanda y desbloqueado para usarse con cualquier chip del mundo lo hacen un teléfono móvil envidiable para otras compañías celulares.
Comparándolo con el N78 y el N95 su presentación clásica como el N78 aunque su cámara es de 5 megapixeles en comparacación con los 3.2 del N78, y su memoria es expandible hasta los 4GB como el N95. Es una buena elección si buscas almacenar música con cualquier tipo de formato y fotografías con nitidez y alto pixelaje y pasar horas y horas navegando en el internet inalámbrico.
¡¡Muy recomendable!!

Lots of features that need to be accessed using small keys.
So... I waited for the iPhone to go 3G. I was even willing to pay for a data plan I did not need, then I found out it's going to cost even more. I bought this unlocked Nokia instead and kept my cheap voice plan only. So far I'm very happy with my decision.
This phone had built-in GPS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth; but it does not have 3G coverage in the US. Being a smart phone it has robust calendar and contact applications. It also has a great 5-mega-pixel camera with auto focus and a powerful Xenon flash that really does light up your subject. The pictures are comparable to an average compact point and shoot camera. Moreover, it geo-tags your photos so you can see where you took the photo on a map. You can also upload your photos to the web, although I have not used that feature. The music player is robust as well and since the phone has a 3.5mm headset jack on the top it's easy to use your favorite headphones. Lastly, it is very attractive in black, and feels, for the most part, solid and well constructed but also lightweight.
I have not used the software that came with the phone since it is not for MACs. Nokia has a plug-in you can download on their website to use the phone with a MAC's iSync software and it works seamlessly. The phone also works well with the HandsFreeLink Bluetooth in my Acura. You can download MSN Messenger and Hotmail for the phone, as well as check your POP-3 based e-mail. The web browser works well and most pages display fine, if a little slowly (even over Wi-Fi). The map program is accurate as well, although you have to subscribe to a service for voice guided turn-by-turn directions. If you don't pay for that you just get the directions displayed on the screen all at once.
Battery life and call quality are great. The phone lasts me about 4 days before it needs to be recharged. I am by no means a power-user though.
The negatives I have is that the keys are way to small for the phone. I am an average sized male and my hands are not huge, but I have some issues with hitting the wrong keys. Additionally, the keyboard area of the phone is very creaky; when you press the keys it makes creaking sounds. The phone can be slow with some operations, specifically zooming into pictures and opening the picture gallery. Lastly, the built-in accelerometer is finicky and often the screen will switch from portrait to landscape when you do not want it to, but NOT when you actually want it to.
All in all, it's a great phone with lots of features (and a phenomenal camera) and well worth the asking price. Sorry for the long review, but it's got a lot of features to discuss.
8/1/08: Two more things: I downloaded Opera Mini and it is far superior and faster then the built-in web browser. Secondly, you can take the phone off the cell network and just use Wi-Fi, which is great when I am home because the cell signal is weak in my house.

The greatest phone I've ever had!
This is the best phone I've had. The camara is just awesome. It's has it all... GPS, Video Call, Good storage... I just can say AWESOME. It is also very light. It's not heavy at all. The screen is big and the image quality is incredible. 5 stars for this gadget!!!
