Espoo, Finland - Nokia today unveiled the Nokia N85, the latest Nokia
Nseries multimedia computer made to set new standards for mobile
entertainment, gaming and sharing. Along with an eye-catching 2.6"
OLED screen and smooth, sleek finish, the Nokia N85 redefines the
mobile experience. It boasts N-Gage gaming, music with in-built FM
transmitter, 5 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and geotagging
capabilities, three month integrated license for turn-by-turn voice
navigation and high-speed connectivity, all in one device. The Nokia
N85 is expected to begin shipping in October 2008 with an estimated
retail price of EUR 450, before taxes and subsidies.
"The Nokia N85 was created to be more than the sum of its parts,
offering a complete mobile entertainment package designed for
connecting, sharing and discovering," said Juha-Pekka Sipponen,
Director, Nokia Nseries. "The iconic Nokia Nseries dual slider design
has evolved to become smaller and sleeker while integrating the
newest features and services to deliver the best mobile experience to
date."
With a strong lineup of multimedia features, the Nokia N85 is taking
the world of mobile convergence to the next level. Gaming, photos,
navigation and music blend together with the newest Ovi and third
party services via 3.5G HSDPA and Wi-Fi connectivity to make
discovering and sharing experiences quick and seamless.
Engage and interact
The Nokia N85 is pre-loaded with at least 10 made-for-mobile N-Gage
gaming titles that jump off of the screen thanks to the dazzling OLED
display and a voucher to activate one full game license. Dedicated
gaming keys light up when the device is in landscape gaming mode to
further enhance the action-packed experience.
A state-of-the-art 5 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and
bright dual LED flash captures clear, sharp images as well as
DVD-quality videos at 30 frames per second. Combined with A-GPS it is
possible to geotag favorite pictures to see where each photo was
taken using the Nokia Maps application or online sites such as Share
on Ovi or Flickr.
Each Nokia N85 comes with an 8 GB microSD card, up to 30 hours of
music playback time and its high-fidelity sound means favorite tracks
can be enjoyed virtually anywhere. Build a personal music collection
from the millions of tracks and playlists available from the Nokia
Music Store or other online music vendors, or synchronize PC and
mobile music libraries via USB cable. Alternatively, consumers can
enjoy RDS radio or a wide selection of stations via the internet. The
3.5 mm audio jack makes connecting a top-quality headset simple and
an in-built FM transmitter lets the Nokia N85 play wirelessly through
a car or home stereo to really crank up the sound.
While it comes out of the box with a multitude of powerful
functionality, the pre-loaded Nokia Download! application makes the
Nokia N85 truly customizable by offering a wide range of bespoke
content. This includes an outstanding selection of world-class
branded entertainment content, the latest in mobile gaming and
dynamic applications so users can really make their device their own.
