This thread included a poll: What problem do you encounter with your n80?

i noticed that there are many problems on the n80. some say the phone is TERRIBLE. some say the phone is awesome. so i create this poll to see whats the percentage of faulty n80 to non-faulty ones...

yes... i know theres a software released by nokia called sms accelerator... but there are some which doesnt have problem WITHOUT the software...hehe...lack of features is not a problem...sorry...i just wanna know if it is faulty...

PS: THOSE THAT VOTED FOR "OTHERS" PLS POST YOUR PROBLEM

phone is sluggish especially IE edition. Phone gets worn out easily. My one has silver paint coming off. Screen is now flashing white more often than not. Very annoying. Seems faulty now. Not happy.

I am thinking of going Apple next for good speed etc. N80 is so slow you give up using stuff in everyday situations. The maps etc. are a good example of this, its so slow you could just ask around for directions quicker.

Depends on your definition of a problem - Battery life for instance, is too short if I use the phone completely, if I use it like i used to use my old phones its fine (i.e. couple of texts, no video, couple of calls, no games, mp3 player wifi), but as the features are there I want to be able to use them! I think the phone is great, but my pet hate is that reception is worse than the 6630 I used to have!

3 problems to me:

- Battery Life
- The phone is big and thick
- No A2DP and volume control on its side

ACtually, there were 4! 😊

i dont own this fone but my friend does and ive played about with it, like any other nseries fone it is AWESOME but just like any other nseries phone the battery life is seriously hurt when you start using the phones many various (and amazing) abilities...

therefore its a huge problem for me because i sometimes have problems gettin in contact with my mate, or hes always buggin me to whack his fone on my charger...
amazing phone otherwise though
