Short Review

  • The Nokia N81 8GB features a compact design with dimensions of 102 x 50 x 17.9 mm and a weight of 140g, making it portable and easy to handle.
  • Its 2.4-inch TFT display supports 16 million colors with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, providing decent clarity for its time.
  • Performance is driven by a 369 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 8GB of internal storage, complemented by 96MB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks.
  • The rear camera is 2 MP, capable of recording video at 320p and 15fps, while a front-facing camera is absent.
  • The 1050 mAh battery offers standard longevity without fast charging or wireless capabilities.
  • Running on Symbian OS 9.2 with Series 60 v3.1 UI, the software experience is functional but dated.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it lacks modern features like NFC and 5G.
  • The device comes in a cocoa brown color, but there are no water resistance features.
  • Overall, the N81 8GB combines basic functionality with a straightforward design, appealing to users seeking simplicity.
