After a week with the Nokia N82, I am really satisfied with it. I will talk about the physical aspects of the Nokia N82 and give a separate review of its features in an upcoming post. Many people consider the N82 simply as a Nokia N95 in a candybar form. While they both share similar features, the Nokia N82 stands out as the winner in the imaging category. In the end, I think that the Nokia N82 won't win any awards for its appearance, but its features make up for it. In terms of build quality, he Nokia N82 feels great in the hands. It is very solid and does not feel cheap or rushed to production. Because of it's width, smooth surface, and rounded corners, putting this phone in my pocket is also easy.I am a user who goes for comfortability and functions. N82 is definitely the one you need if you are just like me.
