Fm transmitter on N86 is one handy feature. Works very well in car. Also u can watch movies on ur cell phone with sound coming from ur car stereo. Now that is one cool application of fm transmitter.

Although the still image processing algorithms have some issues with current firmware, the video recording is top notch. Almost perfect for vga@30 fps with excellent quality.

No idea abt the diamong though, samsung jet will be better screenwise as it has oled display as well as wvga resolution.

Now besides the improving the image processing algorithms i want the following camera features to be added via firmware update.

1. face, smile and blink detection if, its possible to add via a software update
2. increase the video capture resolution to "720X480" pixels
3. slow and fast motion videos as samsung & lg handsets
4. ability to set initial focus in video recording

These things should have been there from start. Now lets see if nokia adds any of these via future firmware updates. And I expected nokia to be on spot from start as far as image processing if concerned. Anyways, hoping for the best.

Just a casual shot taken on a cloudy day..

And N86 battery life is just fantastic.

Forget new features in firmware update , nokia sucks at this . Though camera should have face detection , dont know why nokia is so stubborn to not give it .

Btw , how great is battery life ?

No prob dude. U can ask it anytime. Actually the real thing is somewhere between what these two handsets have captured. Anyways N86 looks more pleasing to the eyes.

This is nice news ..

No no , the last thing that cameraphone needs is more megapixel . Please improve the lense and color reproduction . Give me a k750i camera with >3x optical zoom in <15mm and i will sell my soul for it.

@yogi
I know i am asking you again but can you please tell more about its screen . The brightness/color , outdoor legability ,etc compared to n82/85.
One more thing please compare n82's sound quality with it.

@Tamoghno-- Buddy, brightness is a bit more than N85 oled screen. Colour reproduction is quite same as N85 , means its stunning. Legibility under direct sunlight is improved over N85 screen, it could be because of that glass covering on the front. Music quality through earphones is pretty better than N82 and a bit better than N85 as well. I use senn cx 400. The earphones shipped with N86 are very good too. That means fantastic music quality throught earphones. Its ok through speakers though.

Also i think 8mp is enough for a camera phone. Its more than sufficient to capture any moment of everyday life. For special moments u have ur dedicated camera. So just buying phone for 12mp cameras is not worth. In that amount u can buy a dedicated camera as well as camcorder for u.

This will be the last of the dual-slider phones from nokia. With N86 they have achieved perfection in this form factor.

To The Owner of the N86,

Is there anything implemented in camera section (with latest firmware)such as user custom setting saving option ?

like, Flash Off/Grid Line On/changing Exposure Compensation etc etc reaming the same as user want after shut down camera app or close the lens guard.

Hope I am able to clarify clearly.

U can have ur personalise settings. But the software reverts back to automatic mode if u switch off and then on, the camera application.

Many of my friends think of N86 as same features as N95 . Which is not the case obviously. I would call N86 as much improved and finalised version of dual slider series of nokia. With all this time i have used N86 , I can simply say that its best non touch device available in the market today. If ur not into touchscreen then N86 is the way to go. Now only thing to observe is how its build quality goes with prolonged use. I have a feeling it will last a pretty long time. Only doubt i have is about those small d-pad button.

And however good that dual led is, xenon should have been there in N86. Apart from great N82 , best nokia i have used till date.
