After about a year carrying the Nokia E61i, I am ready for a change. Don’t get me wrong. I like the Nokia E61i except that here’s a girl who doesn’t carry a bag and there are many times where I have to hold it in my hand and it looks like I’m showing off or something. That does not make me feel good.
Besides, the Nokia E61i is a little too large for a girl though the reasons that would make me trade in for another mobile device would be because the camera is a little low quality for my liking compared to my Apple iPhone camera. Moreover, 3G is a tad too slow for me already. My next device will have to be 3.5G capable, or better.

Nokia N82
My friend bought a Nokia N82 recently and I am very impressed with its camera. It is so sharp and the colour so clear, though she tells me that she had to adjust the white balance settings a little. That still did not make me want to change to it until I saw that the Nokia N82 is on the wish list of another friend. Is it that good?

black Nokia N82
The Nokia N82 looks like a sleek mobile device that any girl would be proud to carry. While my friend bought the long awaited black Nokia N82, I personally like the champagne coloured unit. However, I think I still would prefer a device with a QWERTY keypad. After a year of using it on my Nokia E61i and Apple iPhone, I don’t think I want to switch to the normal keypad anymore.
