[simon44]

[mark01332]

this phone is terrible dont buy it !!

[buncey1234321]

@mark01332 isn't terrible

[RodrigoCFD]

This is a good review, but it would be even better if you attach a subtitles file, so YouTube could translate it.

[gabbz0131]

the n95 8gb only advantage i see is the dual arm processor,

this one is more pocket-able, its surprising fast! but i kinda not like the sound on the stereos.

[jancsipl]

Where is the power cord ?!!!

[CherryExplosionn]

is the nokia n86 as big as the sony ericsson c905 or the w995?

[jonnygti]

@CherryExplosionn the n86 is not what id call big, its not tiny but not big also, probably smaller than the c905.

p.s dont even compare the n86 to the c905, the n86 is superior

[edgrr9109]

I've had this phone for two weeks now....it's amazing. It does everything. I'm already used to the buttons and all its functions. You can personalize it really well, any way you want. Camera is fast and amazing. I love face detection. Press back, and in one second you're ready to take another picture. Video quality is great, too. Plus video light while you record. One of my favorite things though, is that it has an FM transmitter :-) it's the best phone ever....i really recommend it to anyone

[RonaldinhoR80R10]

im gettin dat phone

[peytonmvp80]

hows the txting on this device?

[07liberian]

@peytonmvp80 T9 Is Awesome

[kyleranden]

If sonyericsson wasn't around I must admit I would go with nokia. Battery life on them things are crazy awesome :D

Idc what phone i would have, as long as its not an iPhone, Those ARE the worst.

[MoDeKoRUS]

kyleranden,

Sometimes wins c905, sometimes N86 in photos, c905 wins little more, but not each can see the difference (w995 sucks)...

But 320x240 video on cameraphone, n86 is much better! In others things like screen, audio(w995 sucks again, but not it's headphones), video and all others n86 much better!!!

[kyleranden]

Lies D:

[kyleranden]

Sony Ericsson pwns Nokia

C905 is better than this

[cietod88]

@kyleranden SE is shithe. Their software is total crap, Symbian OS is much better. I'd a W995 with 8mp camera and it was worse quality than a 3mp nokia!

[zechreich]

@cietod88 thats correct, Carl Zeiss Optic Lens... Nokia rock! worse to W995

[kyleranden]

Theres this cool thing called Photofix and Photodj that adjusts the color and lighting to make the picture better.

Btw, I have a chip in my head that makes me unable to tell a lie.

[zechreich]

this phone is has good camera and video capture... but shit has no TV output...

[MoDeKoRUS]

it has TV output, it hasn't TV-out cable...It's not a problem, I'm using cable from my old pc-speakers...

[zechreich]

@MoDeKoRUS

sorry for bad language, but i really dissapoint from this phone...

[cietod88]

@zechreich It does. Just no cables with it.

[fredyjunior87]

is the best celular phone

[Vitruviux]

Thanks for the review!

Can N86 get a GPS signal when it's closed? N95 for example, unless you slide it open, it won't be able to acquire a signal.

[CMITRomanP]

Turn your smartphone into safe with Black & White Guard!

[extremewussy]

the thing under the back cover is the antenna for the fm transmitter i think.

[HELLOTOMOROW1]

Should i get this? is it worth it?

[alex5523]

the new firmware v20 makes the camera take better photos and more stability download it

[Djazeiry]

is it hacked the V20 firm ? :P

[cyclops4real]

[LadiesMan660]

Hello, Can you tell me how to get the TIME like that!!!

[selcrit]

[07liberian]

[ScottLewisNJ]

White looks cool

[pacha1312]

my next mobile phone!!!

[azeez838]

@pacha1312 i think my'n tooooo

[pheeson]

I finally got this phone on cntarct and i have to say it is realy good and has this great compact feeling to it the phone feels solid in the hand and has a bit of weight on it. The camera is very good

overall as a casual phone user I'm realy satisfied with it and i can see myself using it for the next 12-18 months.

Highly recommended

[Roastereded]

dumb question, but, is it touch screen?

[pheeson]

Ofcourse not

[Roastereded]

would you say its useless without its camera?

i was gonna buy one from a friend but he dropped the phone and camera now looks like 1 mega pixel :(

[pheeson]

well, it's a very good phone and it has alot of feature but the camera is one of it's main ones, but i don't advise buying a broken phone because well it's broken

[MajorNuttela14]

@Roastereded it depends on whether u'll use it or not. either way, its only gonna be a loss. so i suggest a new one.

[starfish258852]

no.

[razahjaved]

plz mate can u tell me the price of this phone in the uk urgent

[redvirtus]

I think what did you see was not 4mp but mp4....

[Routing101]

I need help with this phone:

When I change to video mode I noticed that in the lower left corner it has a 4mp quality assigned to it ! I thought it incorporated the 8MP in videos not pictures only..any ideas about this ?

[reynoldmetacute]

Go to options and then settings,and adjust your video quality

[illremedy]

you cant have 8MP videos, only pictures.. you'd need a reeeeeally good HD video recorder to get 8MP in a phone

but overall, the video seems good.. no?

[shaddayah]

Question! Is there a place for a phone strap?? Its really important for me,especially since I'm really planning on buying it.

[reynoldmetacute]

Yes it has phone strap,it is located at the bottom of the phone

[shaddayah]

Yay! :D thanks!

[stuprestonexperience]

4:56 he shows you where it is matey.

[Flynny74]

The contacts on the cover are for the FM TRANSMITTER! The antenna is in the cover! Same on N85

[kakadots]

3.5ml, ha u dumb fuk

[paice95]

i have an n86 and had an n95 8gb and i must say i'm surprised that the speaker quality is better on the n95 8gb.

[Aappan]

Holy shit that N95 is ugly compared to N86!!! YUCK!!

[kuldjechak]

n86 or 5800??

[coleszi17]

Need ur HELP!

Hi I wanna buy this phone. I have got a N73. My question is: In N86 stereo speakers are make good song quality and louder than the Nokia N73?

Thanks

[THEPOPEBANNEDME]

N73's sound quality, it's probably better.

[KARIM7145]

maten tahir if you are looking a phone for just camera go with n86 if you want phone for facebook lot of memory and these kind a things and good camera go with n97 for me i have the n97 and i really recommend it for you mor betterphone

[heep4]

Does this one play films like the N96?

[mawnstah]

yes

[MateenTahir]

i am confused ....i want to buy a mobile...i like n86 but i also like n97...please anybody tell me which i should go for it...do message me please...

[JangoAC]

N86 definetively, N97 is too expensive and NOT that good !!

[MajorrBison]

i know right!!!

[saykey2009]

buy the nokia n900

[yohici]

i would say buy n86 i did it too

i dont like normal mobile phones but n86 has only no touch but it is soo cool and has a better camera

[karedward]

i mean is, why you have a two earphone?

[karedward]

whay your earphone is very very different??that's not the real one for n86...

[ngsaytar]

don't have tv out cable?

[ResetOriginal]

i've been getting mixed opinions and i figure i could use a few more, sooo, Nokia n86 OR Samsung innov8?

[bmr101]

If you can afford it, Samsung innov8. Problem is, it's old now and support for it will be limited. N86 is flagship so expect lots of firmware updates etc.

[ResetOriginal]

well its alot cheaper where i am vs the n86, i can get it for about 450-520.....depending where i shop, where as the nokia is about 120-150 extra. i was considering firmware updates but my main thing is the picture/video quality, and from all the reviews i've seen the quality isnt as good as innov8...yet it won the TIPA award lol i dont know how good that is but yea, its why im confused, maybe im not seeing something that others do?

[bmr101]

From the images I've assessed the Innov8 has among the best pictures you can take with a camera phone. The ONLY fault I found with it when reviewing it was the location of the 3.5mm jack, which is on the side.

[ResetOriginal]

oh, well if thats the only problem the innov8 it is......i dont care for a 3.5mm jack, let alone its location....thanks alot for the info, it has been very helpful, so hopefully in 2 months ill be getting my new phone:), cheers.

[banana197569]

the contact points under the back cover touch onto an aerial that is stuck to the back cover. Or at least they do on my n85 ! there should be an aerial for gps , wifi and bluetooth and phone call aerial.

[HokiesACC]

I really am going to miss the media key that would take you right to the music player with a long press.

[NiceTubeAccount]

I was waiting for the Nokia N86 8MPix review !!! Thanks, Very detailed review. You have awesome channel !!!

[iLikeiPods1]

damn bricks not worth half their retail

[SKiTzShow]

This thing is thicker than Rainn Wilson's forehead.

[Pest66]

what a brick!

[dvrsflrs]

that is an ugly phone.

the worst thing about it, is that it doesn't have a xenon flash

[mobileburn]

That is the biggest weakness in terms of the camera, to be certain. An LED flash can be done well, but it will never be able to match the performance of a Xenon flash.

[extr3m3psycho]

@mobileburn hey you sit on my dick that would be fun... oooooooolaalalaaalala fuck you

[RK831]

@dvrsflrs Dude, my N82 blows it away insofar as picture quality. However, it's limited to EDGE here in America, and the 3G works only in Europe. Nevertheless, I can't think of a better smartphone to bring with me to the strip clubs and discos.

[theJAZOSH]

@dvrsflrs OH COME ON! DON'T LIKE IT, GO AWAY! AND OVERALL YOU CAN'T AFFORD IT! SO GO AWAY!

[steve1690101]

omnia hd blows all n series phones trust me i hv n97 and omnia hd 16gb and the n97 is way slower and its their flagship handset samsung all the way

[gavrilaeugen]

on 4:30 that contact above the battery is for kick stand when u pull the kick stand a program will open real player etc

[gavrilaeugen]

i hate my n86 y prefer the n95 8 gb

[unrealgogetr]

that is a very thick phone...and the one you compared it to

[Mouthmusician]

wow, this device is $583.34 on Amazon, that's a lot of money. I like the some what speed on the device, I hope a service comes and pick it up, because only the rich can afford this.

[Ahawkins2770]

or.. people who buy a phone and then return them within the 30 day trial period.. like me lol

[raledrkbld]

anyone know if you can tether with this one like with the n95?

[savior02]

WEAK

[PoetryRocksAlot]

The lanyard slot is prone to breakage.

[GeeYouAreYou0001]

It's got a nice camera but DAMN is it thick and ugly.

[OnMyCamera]

can this be on verizon?

[mobileburn]

No.

[Imraj101]

idk about this fone

looks a little

not good:S

how does the features compare to the n95

[mobileburn]

Basically does everything the N95 does the same or better.

[PoetryRocksAlot]

Hey, do you still have the N95? If so can you compare both the sound quality, the bass, and the loudness at maximum settings?

My priorities are loudness, however.

[TimmyLoyal]

weeeeeeeeeeeee i got mine today yeee haa

[DarkBlade123456777]

Manuel has way 2 muc 4 me 2 read

[atlaschooty]

nokia n86 is a cool phone...

[Znitso]

Just kidding but i do like the N86, good video.

4/5 stars

[mobileburn]

Quality is a bit low on this one. Russell tried filming in a different location, and it just didn't work out very well by comparison.

[Znitso]

Thanks for your reply, didnt think it was that bad. I have looked into the phone further and discoverd that it is a really good phone. Quick question, which do you like the most of the Nokia N86 and Sony ericsson C905? Thank you.

[Znitso]

First comment :)
