Hey Guys!!
I don't know what to choose between this phones: Nokia N79, Nokia N82 or Nokia N85? Or any SE with the same feature as these and with the same price bracket. (I really really wanted to have a good camera and good music quality)

I currently have K850i and I'm planning to sell it.
My requirements are exactly what my K850 has but it lacks Wi-Fi and it is very slow when navigating through "media" menu especially with the music playing.
I really like N82 because it has all features I want but I'm not a fan of it's design and it's kinda old now... But it's still one of my choice.

All my choices are Nokia because I didn't see any SE with same features as this phones with decent price..

N79 and N85 are almost on the same price range so you all know what my budget is.

Well you should go for the N82 or The N79 if you don't care about the fact that it haves Led Flash and the pictures are not as good in daylight
N85 is a nice overall device and a good slider but is a REALLY BIG Fingerprint MAGNET it looks like crap after a while

N82 - Black: because aside from the FP2, the N79 and N85 are nothing special. from their crappy 5mp cameras, weak flashes and poor Dual-CPU-without-graphics-accelerator gimmick. even the FP2 OS itself is a poor excuse to get the two. FP1 can virtually do everything the FP2 can.

Well if you want both a decent camera and good music quality then get the N79, ITS VERY well built, i love using my mates one, its a very nice package for the price. havent used the N85, but ive read a lot of build quality complaints about it,rather stay away IMO. The N82 is the most powerful out of those options, due to it having the best cam, xenon flash and its graphics accelerator BUT compared to the N79 the N82 has poor sound quality, and a bit slow in somethings IMO, like starting up apps, multitasking, and USB transfer is also pretty slow in N82 compared to N79, id say get the N79, its a realy nice package with longer battery life as well as a better looking UI. sorry N82 users.

i was also choosing between the n82 and n79. I went for the n82 black w/c looks better than the titanium color. With it's latest firmware, v31, battery life lasts longer and menu and accelerator respond faster.
