Viewing pictures on the computer
The camera application on the Nokia N86 8MP smartphone works pleasantly in practice. The addition of the 8MP camera has really proven itself and it can almost be considered a genuine cameraphone. If we view the pictures on the computer, we are genuinely surprised. During a short holiday in Sicily, the N86 was used as a digital camera, and even the large compositions show an excellent result. Compared to a regular digital camera, we still come across quite some noise, however, the results of the N86 exceed many other mobile phones. The dual LED flash even let us capture nice memories during a night out. All in all, a nice addition to this neat multimedia smart phone.
