NOKIA N81 8GB

N81 is an effort to bring about the popular N-Gage/N-Gage QD phones which were discontinued by Nokia some time back. It combines the best gaming experience along with good multimedia capabilities.


Design
The phone uses a slider mechanism but it is quite bulky without the slider open. A complete plastic body gives it a light feel, but takes away the ergonomic factor. The screen is 2.8inches big which is ideal for the gaming section for which this phone is made for. A 5-way Dpad clutters the phone area and is used mainly in gaming. The phone has the volume keys and camera keys on the right and the speaker quality is very nice, which suits the phone’s requirements.

Gaming and Multimedia
The phone scores well in gaming department, with the games available for play in landscape mode, and the N81 seems like a PSP in your hand. The phone has 8GB of memory, which is more than sufficient for the storage of games and multimedia data. The sound quality is the best that Nokia has to offer, but it still cannot match Walkman phones. Video viewing is a nice experience on this one, because of the 2.8 inch screen, but occasional framing can be observed even when the memory is empty. It has only a 2MP camera, whereas a 3.2MP should have been the ideal choice.

Conclusion
Overall a good phone, it could have done better if a better camera had been provided.
