I have a N82 too and a Garmin Nuvi 760. The Nuvi 760 gets satelite fix much more faster than my N82. ... My Nuvi 760 takes about 2 minutes, and the N82 takes about 5.
I used to have a N95 (It got stolen) and it took like half an hour IF it took signal, most of times it didn't. Not reliable at all.
In order for the Garmin Nuvi 610 to work faster, next time raise the "flap" at the back of the device. It is a form of antenna which helps it to receive the signal better.
I've an N80 and looking to upgrade. I'm looking at N82 & 5800. The N82 has a great camera, but does that outweigh the 5800's larger screen, higher resolution, QWERTY, longer battery life? Everyone is sprung on the N82 for its camera, but T9 & small screens seem rather down-market. Am I missing something?
this is really stupid...if u owned the garmin u would know that u need to open the back antenna to get a signal..thats y u never got any signal..it was always down in the video...
OK, this is great but need I remind you that voice navigation on any GPS enabled Nokia phone is not free? Nokia charges a fee for this service which does not make any sense to me because they don't really incur any costs from GPS usage.
GPS on the phone is just once in the whyle...is just when you dont have anything else,if you need a GPS buy a GPS not a phone with GPS...also who is so dum to pay 130$ 1 year subscribe...when a real GPS device is around 250 usd.
i got n82 and garmin nuvi 250 both r good machines.. but n82 is more useful as it is with me all the time.. and i can use it anytime... gps in this phone is unbelievably good... fixes slightly faster then the garmin..
if so then thats the problem asia has less GPS sats hanging over it plus cloudy cover is not good and its recommended that you have the GPS unit in the middle of the car window at the bottom of the middle i used to sell garmins they are much better then a nokia lol
no nokia runs gps off the network as well as satellites plus its always on i cant remember the name or give 2 sh**s about it the garmin will kick its ass cause thats what the garmins made 2 do
if i want to use the n82 gps with voice guidence do i need to have broadband/3g/gprs connection? can u plz explain to me in details how to use the gps with voice?
Ok, I'm the guy who shot this video and I just want to clarify something.
Both GPS units were switched off at the same time prior to shooting this video: 48 hours.
Therefore, both devices had to deal with cold starts. Yes, the N82 had AGPS turned on. Data charge is not a concern for me as I have an unlimited mobile data plan, which in my country, is very reasonable at around US$27 per month.
The AGPS of the N82, or any AGPS equipped Nokia phone/GPS is crucial in fast and tenacious GPS fixes.
A GPS uses your 3g network to find the location whereas the other uses the satellite connection. therefore you will end up with a $50 bill if you keep on using the n82 this is coming from an owner of n82BLACK
one reason why n82 gets faster fix compare to 610 is because n82 has A-GPS while 610 doesnt. with A-GPS help, you can get faster fix compare to non AGPS unit. Besides, if the 610 uses external antenna, i guess it will lock faster too.
it's an saab 9-3? nice car :) and nice phone. my HP NW6915 takes around 15 secs. like n82 it uses a-gps with uses list of satellites downloaded from the internet to get the actual position. that model of garmin isn't so that's why the result
wow.. GPS in N82 is quite good in locking satellites unlike my P3600 (Dopod D810) which could sometimes take more than 15 minutes in getting fix. sometimes i even reached my destination, get off the car and hasn't got any Satellite lock..
it's a gps in a phone, it's not of the highest quality, your windscreen can stop it from working and plus it is VERY cloudy and raining, nokia says its very hard to get a connection watching your video that seems amazing that it is working so well, I can't wait to get this phone
its a feature of the phone. the only thing is u may have to purchase additional features of the GPS like more maps, other voice commands, speed camera detecting feature etc...
this guy's an ace man!. driving on the wrong side of the road in a reversed car setup in the rain, with 2 navis talking and on top of it filming everything. cheers!@
I'm sorry, I just don't understand the need for a comparison rather than simply a demonstration. What is being compared? They are two completely different devices.
OP showed N82 w/o A-GPS, only using GPS.. Ok, so the thing is he probably had a warm GPS. No way is the GPS that fast. If you wait like 2 days without using it and try to get a new lock, it will take a good 3 minutes at least. Apples vs. Oranges please. Clearly the Garmin had to deal with a cold lock.
Actually GPS is free. The reason why the phone GPs works so well is becos it has AGPS (assisted GPS). It makes use of cell tower positions in addition to satellite signals to help with positioning.
Simply Brilliant!!! Cant wait to get my hands on it though. I was wondering, It probably uses up alot of data charges, right. You'll probably need a data plan to get gps working without a huge bill.
Where can i take n82 Gps file? Thx

Well, maybe the fact that N82 has more RAM, and a video CPU (besides the normal CPU) while 5800 only has one processor and less ram.
Nokia 5800's deal is just the big touch screen, nothing else. I have both and speak from experience.
