All this time, I thought Samsung was the first to implement variable aperture on cameras on the S9 and S9+ but they were beaten by Nokia first since 2009. Mind blown. Thanks for this.

At this point of time, nokia already being boring phone company, they dont even change theme for one phone to another. This phone had no personality compared to the predecessor such as nokia n80 or even nokia 3650.

@@raka9220 I think the term "Phones" in this place mean between each phone companies. You can't expect Nokia to shapeshifting their phone on every single release, No? And beside, What we've got right now are basically a "Candy Bar" for phones after one another. If it weren't for branding or advertisinng, I can't really distinguished the different between something like Samsung, Xiomi, Vivo, Oppo, Mii or buttload of phones we've got on market nowaday.

Please continue to make these, they're much appreciated! Seeing these videos reminds me of the good times of dope and wild designs. Also , that White N86 is a big flex ! Props ! As you noted, the design and materials still hold up, this was peak Symbian/ Nokia, which makes one wonder,. since @Nokia today has been updating some of it's classic 'basic' phones, surely they could look towards past gems like the N86 , the E7, N8, and others, in building their future flagships. At the very least ..bring that camera lens cover back!

I LOVED my slide phone back in the day!!! I got it out yesterday when my current phone needed a replacement and I genuinely wish they still made sliders. FAR more satisfying and less cheap feeling than the flip style... Please keep making these. Seem to get a lot of love on this video.
oled screen in 2009 was unimaginable, that too in a 2.6 inch screen..It was freaking awsm that time..One of the best
I loved this phone so much back in the day. N8 had the same charm as well.
The Nokia N86 looks incredible indeed. I love it. Even though they are much smaller in size, they are the most durable phones I've ever seen. Even I also use a Nokia Asha 202 Phone and I bought it back 8 years ago, I can't believe my eyes it's STILL WORKING Perfectly. Much worth than all those iPhone 12 Pro Max and other stuff. Awesome Video Brother, Congratulations!
goodness 😍 this is love, please, take me back! when features where competitively rich
Pure Nostalgia! Love these types of videos. ❤️
My god how much I miss these days when phones were exciting . Now phones are dull lifeless things. thank you Abdulla for bringing the good days back.
I absolutely loved this phone back then. I used it for 2 years. Camera was amazing for its time.
I still own my Nokia 5310 XpressMusic back when I purchased those phone in 2009. Those phone accompanied me in my junior high periods. Time flies so fast🥺
High quality video! Keep up the good work.
My dream phone back then. It would still be awesome to have it now.
Just discovered your channel today and I am already addicted to it. Keep it up buddy !
I had this device in dark colour. Refrained from clicking the video as I'd be upset of losing that device :D but couldn't resist the nostalgia. Bought this after selling 5800 XM for the camera. The metal bezel around the front used to lose it's dark colour. Used to have other Nseries themes installed on this device by pizero. The breathing light of the menu key was a pleasure seeing at night. In India, they included a leather holster in the box when I bought. Wished it had the swipe to navigate on the D-pad like the E72 in those days. Cheers for the video! :)
Estou impressionado com a tela e câmera deste celular! A era Nokia visionária!
Mine was black. All the good old memories!!! Subbed! 😜
Love reaction button on KZread needed for this video ❤️❤️❤️
damn, those still shot samples are astonishing. the fact that this phone was released a decade ago.
I miss Nokia and love OS Symbian so much..😌 please come back !
Nokia is the best phone company ever. Each model had its own design . Each model was unique . Nowadays you're getting tons of phones that look the same and have the same features. I really miss that era ...
It was my dream phone back then still love it ❤️❤️
I remember this phone fondly indeed. It was the last device I used before switching to a 3GS. The N86 was so fast and it felt quite ahead of it’s time really. Great camera, stereo speakers… A headphone jack? What? Pretty sure I had an 8GB card in mine but can’t remember now. Anyway, I loved that phone.
Mr 10k ,Mabrook!! Aaah ,give me a removable battery plus Ovi store plus Symbian that should have gone further!! Aaah sadly those days are gone!! Loved the build and design!!! Banging Vid ,this kind of review is Iconic!!
Nice to see a very important part of Nokia those time many of us mostly used Nokia Phones I called that time The Nokia Era
Oh my god.. I owned it. Such a nostalgic moment..❤
I loved this phone.. amazing phone for what it was! Just a really well built phone!
Wow,, it reminds me of my uncle... This feels great seeing a video about good old nokia.....
I had ever owned n95 2gb, n95 8gb, n82 and many more symbians phone. And still love them. Now I try to find this phone to become my secondary phone. Love you Symbian. Hope Nokia Will remake them with new features
I have this phone in my college days. So many memories. I miss those days and i miss my friends 😥😥😥😥
This was my Dream phone Still today I always wanted this phone
Appreciate your Efforts, Watching from 🇺🇸, My Favourite 1 👌
Nokia was ahead of its time... my fave was and still is the lumia series 1020 can't wait for that...
Man, I just want those old days to come back 😊
once my dream phone... thanks for the video lots of memories...
My best Nokia smartphone. I had E70, N95, N85, but N86 was "the" phone. So nostalgic review. So, Nokia first implemented variable aperture, AOD, this was first all glass (front side of slider) phone. I remember spending lot of time finding cracked versions of all apps on internet. Remember "Certificate expired!" message. That was times :) Regards from Dubrovnik/CRO

@@ChrisTian-sd5yq Since this isn't a daily usable phone anymore, but rather a collector's item it doesn't matter much anymore. But in terms of spec the N96 has a slightly bigger screen and 16GB internal. But the N86 has an AMOLED screen, faster processor, better camera and better battery.
The switch from standard TFT displays to Amoled though. It was like man discovering fire compared to man walking on the moon. Colors we're popping.
The best Nokia keypad phone I ever used 💕💕💕💕💕crazy camera
Yes. I can purely say, money can buy happiness. Noko❤️
Classic Nokia phone is amazing. 2 weeks battery life is why I love my Nokia
One of the features I absolutely loved on the Symbian devices of those days is the ability to set up an alarm and turn off the phone. You can't do this with "modern" smartphones anymore. But you could do that with a Symbian like this. And even when the battery was almost dead, it would still wake you up.
my parents had a nokia 6111, to me it was the coolest phone back in the day, i felt like i was living in the future, the sliding mechanism was so satisfaying, we used to call those sliders phones "soap phones" here in brazil cause they have the shape and slip like soap
Revisiting the good old times.. miss those times..
Did you say AMOLED Screen?... OMG I want this phone.. I was all looking at the screen though out the video... Thanks man!
I can still remember back in the days when I had that phone it was absolute blast! The very next year i.e 2010 during a trip to Nepal's capital Kathmandu, I lost that mobile at Pashupatinath temple 😅 Ita was priced around 24k ₹/ 600USD during its launch 2009.

These phones from Nokia represented the transition from standard keypad phones to the current smartphones. Later, the screens got bigger and they gained touch feature.
It's remember me when every one have the taste of them phone. Every phone figuring the owner. Ow really beauty memorize. I really hope that nokia is alive again. I will support you nokia, my beautifull memories in you.
nokia phones were way ahead of it's time , it still today is sliding buttons controls , camera stand to place your phone and watch video or anything , even we still don't have something like that till this date
This is such a cool phone! The camera sounds impressive for the time. Didn't know there were variable apertures on older phones. So Samsung S series wasn't the first then.
I had the N81..🙂..those were legendary days..😕❤️❤️😥😥
Damnn those photos still look decent for its age
I still use N96 ,battery lasts 3 days,i was tired of all the apps and started using it 3 months ago.i complitely recomend it if only was new,but its 12 years old
Definitely do a camera comparison with x20,8.3
Sample images are excellent
Still using one of these with a CFW as my daily phone since 2017.
Do anyone know where i can download the firmware to flash with phoenix/jaf??
User removable battery, dual speakers, integrated kick-stand and lens cover, dedicated camera button ... Let the good times roll!
great rev bro! can u do a n86 vs n96 ? plz
At that time it was dream to buy this kind of phone.
Awesome!
That hello on the box is now the hello on the start screen of iOS when upgrading to new iOS version. Hahaha. Looks like phones today are now repeating the history with few tweaks. Thanks to Nokia.
I traded my iPod with my friend for this phone in 2011. Big win for me. 😂 And I just remember the camera on this iPhone at the time was insanely good for its price. I had a iPhone4 as well. The photo quality was just as good. Believe it or not, I still keep a lot of the photos that were taken by this phone till this day! I grew up during the Nokia era, I just remembered how badly I wanted a N85, but couldn’t afford it lol. Man… I miss those days.
So many cool things are crammed into the cosiest space of our palm.
