Nokia N82 with GPS review

Dec 13, 2007 gps navigation, nokia, phones, reviews

If you are wondering how the A-GPS on N82 performs we have a couple of articles for you to look at:

First off, like we imagined, A-GPS on N82 provides a very fast satellite fix unlike first versions of N95:

Navigation wise the phone has an internal GPS receiver and supports A-GPS, and comes with Nokia Maps installed. Testing the phone, lock on to location in Maps took less than 10 seconds. Very quick, and much quicker than experienced with the N95. The bright, clear QVGA TFT screen supporting up to 16million colours makes navigation very clear and very easy to follow…

The other article mentions the small screen won’t be ideal for following driving directions:

One of the tradeoffs for the N82’s candy bar is its smaller 2.4-inch QVGA display which will now make it even harder to surf the Web or use for GPS directions. (The N95 sports a 2.6-inch screen.)

That’s all we have but we’ll keep you updated as more reviews surface… pic from techeblog
