Nokia N82 retail box

Nokia N82 retail box

The Nokia N82 continues to extend the line of Nseries devices with another innovation, the Xenon flash. The N82 has all the latest wireless connectivity options, with the exception of the North American 3G networks. The 5 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics takes very good photos and 30 fps video. The N82 is available now in the U.S. from the Nokia site as an unlocked device for US$564.

This is the smallest A/C adapter I have seen for a Nseries device and I hope this is the trend for the future.

You can take a self portrait with the front facing camera, but you cannot use it to make video calls like you can in Europe. The light sensor automatically adjusts the display brightness.

I was pleased to see the return of the physical shutter on the N82 since it helps protect the lens from scratches and dirt.

In closed mode, the N82 is longer than the N81 8GB. As you can see they appear similar in design and appearance.

When you slide open the N81 8GB it is much longer than the N82. I like the slider design since it hides and protects the keypad.
