I love reading articles,especially reviews when they appear on Symbian-Freak.com,cos SF reviews go very deep into details and they do it without leaving doubts.Sergejs Cuhrajs has finally put it out with all the details touched and explained,so head over here and enjoy reading.And have a look at this unboxing too,why I’m posting this,because it lead me into a decision,I changed my mind and the N96 is no longer going to be my next phone.It’s definitely the N85 that is going to be my Symbian companion,cant wait till next January.

N85 Launching in UK Today

The ultimate s60 dual slider,compact stylish,glamourous and it is the ever released largest number of feature  clustered Nokia,The N85 is Launching in UK today,that is 31st of October.I had the very first s60 slider the N80,came with a bunch of innovative concepts which evolved in to the their top most sold form factor,the “Dual Slider”.At the tyime of release the N95 was like a dream device,a transformer form factor that amazed both youth and business crowds,thus giving out the boost for a new trend.The personal computing turns out to be simple and more mobile among all the classes of communities,its all about style that brought up by this unique form factor and I can remember when I talked with the N85 Product Manager he told me that the Dual Slider was the most space effective form factor they’ve come across yet.So unlike I hate other device designs been repeated,I tend to lovew this dual Slider form factors evolution.

N95 and its 8gig cousin is bit large to fit into a pocket but the large sized screen has it own advantages that we cannot just put aside.But every success needs some sacrifice,so the N85’s gain over the slight reduction of screen size they have made it into a huge hit by offering so many plus points,like the inclusion of  most discussed Camera lens cover,OLED Screen(This what I love most)N78 like keyless faceplate operations. and USB charging.

So this device is somewhat close to a flagship while challenging their real flagship N96 with loads of points.And it attracts more buyers by going in a relatively less price to.The N85 is said to be a massive improvement of its predecessors,and among them a promissing one would be the steady slider mechanism,I had enough of the N80’s N95’s and now the N95 8GB’s wobble while sliding.I know that it aint gonna break the phone but it’s a irritating feeling to live with.

This tiny little slider will be a big hit when it is released in UK,and world around.So today will be a big day to all the S60 fans.people who were blaming about the N-series being bulky will no longer hate it.Instead they will say good bye to non-S60 brands.

For all the UK buyers waiting for this release better to go through this mega review over here.
