Nokia’s fabled N-Series has another winner up it’s sleeve with the Nokia N85. It’s got more specs than you can waggle a pointy thing at, such as a 5-megapixel camera, 3G, HSDPA, Wi-Fi, GPS and more.
Just about everything you could want, or need is tucked into the N85 and we’ve rounded it all up in one place.
Photography fanciers will find a 5-megapixel camera with LED flash, while road goers will discover the delights of voice guided navigation with AGPS and Nokia Maps.
HSDPA and 3G for whizzy web browsing is standard issue here, as is dedicated N-Gage gaming keys and a snazzy 2.6in bright OLED display. Tune fanciers will also find a music player, FM radio and the ability to send tunes wirelessly to their car radio.
