    CNET Review

    September 6, 2005

    The Good: Sexy, eye-catching form factor; Bluetooth; sharp 262,000-color screen; world phone; speakerphone; integrated camera plus video recorder; streams music via Bluetooth; solid call quality; FM tuner.

    The Bad: Cramped keypad; inconsistent battery life; case and screen show smudges easily; battery case hard to remove; expensive; heavy.

    The Bottom Line: The Nokia 8800's flawed design and short battery life mar an otherwise beautiful and feature-packed phone.
