We like:
5-megapixel camera with xenon flash; GPS
We don't like:
Design looks unfinished; keypad can be fiddly to press at times
CNET UK judgement:
We don't like how the N82 looks and we're not keen on its keypad, but it's such a good phone in terms of features that we're prepared to overlook its aesthetic shortcomings. This is how the N95 should've been -- from the camera to the GPS, everything works as you expect it to. Fingers crossed Nokia manages to squash all of this into a smaller, more attractive handset next time round
