    Advantages Advantages music

    Disadvantages Disadvantages cant think of any

    Well I don't think anyone can argue that this phone doesn't look good, and it was certainly one of the reasons of which I purchased the phone in the first place. There was other reasons but ill go into them later on. Ok, so firstly ill go into the look of the product, the colour on the specification says its warm silver/brown. However when you get it in your hands it looks more like a black and dark silver/brown colour. Also the back panel of the phone has tiny speckles that reflect light and makes it look ever so stylish. This nokia has a 2.4 inch screen. This screen is great quality and is ... more

    Advantages Advantages pretty, can do just about anything

    Disadvantages Disadvantages expensive

    Nokia have always been very favourite mobile phone producer. I deviated once from them in about 2001, but have otherwise been steadfastly loyal. I usually tend to go for the simple models. I'm not too bothered by gadgets, as long as I can call and text I'm happy. I was given this phone for my birthday and was a little scared to begin with. So many functions! However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was easy to use, like all other nokia products that I have had. The instructions were clear but with a little bit of fiddling I think that most mobile phone users could work out how to ... more

    Advantages Advantages functions, media, user friendly

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Video compatibility

    I feel Nokia have been outclassed in the market over the past few years, and i have found myself becoming increasingly fond of sony ericsson, however without getting a full size PDA S/E do not do a phone with WI-FI (a key feature that attracted me to the N81) Having been a previous fan of nokia's in the days of the 3210 3310 etc... i was very keen to get my hands on my new phone..... i was not to be dissapointed, First thing about this handset is its striking looks, i honestly believe it is one of the best looking phones on the market. many people believe a phone with an operating system such ... more

    Advantages Advantages Good user interface, easy to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Feels like a cheap piece of plastic

    I've had my Nokia N81 8GB for about 4 weeks now and I have to say it looks very good. User interface is very easy to use and self explanatory as you would normally find with Nokia phones. They are still one of the best manufacturers for this sort of thing on the market. Quality of sound is good. You will love the memory size; 8GB is enough for most needs that a typical phone is there to serve. At just 2 megapixels the camera is a little bit disappointing but the pictures that come out of it aren't that bad, so for me, this bit isn't that much of an issue. The battery life is alright although ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Never ashamed to get my phone out, sometimes I get it out even for no reason.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages It takes a while to fully understand all the features.

    When I was first looking for a new mobile phone, I needed one that looked the part, which offered the latest features, and one that I could easily use. The N81 was the answer to these problems. Not only that but it offers a huge 8GB of memory which was perfect for the amount of media I wanted the phone to have, My videos, music and gaming files. The sleek and stylish design with the sliding feature, allowed the phone to provide a key pad, which is much easier to use then touch screen technology. It looks professional and fashionable, I couldn’t want more in a phone as far as looks are ... more
