Mrs. Guru has been using the Nokia N81 8GB for nearly a year now, and has grown to really enjoy it. She’s set up with Salling Media Sync so she can easily load it up with music from her iTunes, and she’s recently discovered the internet, often using it to check her Facebook and whatnot. [...]
As I’m waiting to replace my Nokia N95-3, since I’ve accepted that it will likely not be getting any more firmware updates from Nokia, the news of other firmware updates simply annoys me more. This time, it’s even worse, as those receiving the update are the old Nokia N81 8GB and E65 sliders. Yeah, that’s [...]
**Update** Thanks to those who left a comment about the quality of the video. I’m not sure where the problem occurred, but I’ve pulled the video and will hopefully be able to re-edit without the hiccups and errors. Thanks again, and we’re real sorry about that. Come one, come all, to yet another episode of [...]
Steve at AllAboutSymbian has reported an interesting find: apparently the N81 8GB is being cleared out on the Expansys website. The phone which currently retails at £359 (708$) on the official Nokia UK Shop is going for £249.95 (493$) on the Expansys site. This is more than 200$ price drop and looks like the perfect [...]
My time with the N81 8GB Special Edition is practically up and I got one sentence to sum it up. I have fallen in love with this sucker! It doesn’t have the best camera optics or a huge gorgeous screen, it doesn’t have an accelerometer or a TV-out feature, it doesn’t have GPS or HSDPA, [...]
Perhaps the most problematical issues I have found so far with the N81 8GB are related to software, and not hardware. The 2MP camera wasn’t much of a letdown, since I knew what to expect and was even surprised to find the quality higher than several 2MP cameraphones I have used so far (Nokia 3250, [...]
Blame it on the fact that I’ve been emTub’ing a lot of Jeff Dunham’s Achmed videos recently, but fact is, even if I love the lack of settings in the scroll wheel which I have discussed yesterday, I can’t help but think there’s something wrong, and something missing there. It’s a matter of pure logic. [...]
If you’re the lucky owner of a Nokia N81 device (8GB or microSD version) you’re invited by the N-gage team to head on over to the First Access forums to get the pre-release version of the new app and start your gaming! I’ll be checking this out later today and will followup tomorrow with a [...]
The only device with a scroll wheel right now by Nokia is the N81, which I have been lucky to have in trial for a week now. If you skim through the blogosphere looking for impressions about it, you would find mixed up feelings, very mixed up. I had been following this love’n’hate relationship, and [...]
