Squirrels & Lizards Captured In Darkness With The N82


Hopefully Ravindra from Symbian Life Blog didn't blind these poor little fellas haha. I'm sure there fine. He got a chance to try out the N82 and shows off the xenon flash capalities - in pitch black darkness.


Looking at all the pictures on his article you would think there was a light on in the room. I had a discussion with Devin from The Nokia Guide today and we agreed how hard it would be to give up xenon flash. I was telling him that myself, living in the USA we don't get to take advantage of the N82's 3g speeds. I could opt to go for the N95-4, but there is no way in hell I can get good use out of the N95's camera in low light conditions. I take a lot of night photos so this is definetly a problem.

Click here to head over and check out the article by Symbian Life. It's very interesting as are the photos he took.

What do you think? Would you be Europeans be able to give up your 3g speeds to keep xenon flash? Or would you switch to a N95 with 3g and no xenon? I'd like to hear your thoughts on this.
I'm actually going to find out this question for myself soon. I will be trialing a N95-4 (N95 8gb with North American 3g) for a few weeks thanks to Nokia. I'll check back here with my initial thoughts in a few days.

I am currently enjoyıng my n82 without any kind of network, just prepaid UMTS cards! Just use wifi, gps without network usage (still costs me one prepaid point for some reason, just on connection...) And i still think the n82 is a great buy.

When i move back to the US, i will likely use just the EDGE and not be sad about missing 3G.. xenon flash and more compact size, faster operations, no sliders to damage or worry about, n82 is better than n95 in my opinion.

Hey, daniel!! That's amazing!!! Looks like the box didn't change (outside). Is that unlocked?? Does have English language for menus??

Hey John!
The box just got a thin paper-cover with the black phone on it as seen in one of the pictures.
The phone is unlocked and has, besides scandinavian langues (swe, nor, den, fin, icl) english.
It cost about ~510 EUR + shipping.

Daniel, does your N82 black has the d-pad clicking sound glitch?

Unknown said...

daniel, where did you buy your phone from?

I think it still has the clicking sound, yes.
I Bought it from www.katshing.se in sweden, but more retailers here now have it in stock. www.komplett.se for ex.
