Remember this guy? Me either. Nokia just announced that the 8-megapixel N86 will be hitting stateside with a $558 price tag. No thanks, Nokia.
The award winning Nokia N86 8MP, the most advanced Nokia imaging device, is coming to the United States. With its eight megapixel camera, dual LED flash and Carl Zeiss Optics, the Nokia N86 8MP will allow US consumers to carry a true replacement for single purpose point-and-shoot camera. With a beautiful 2.6-inch AMOLED screen, viewing images and video has never been more pleasurable.
Sharing images and video with your social network couldn’t be easier with the Share Online client that is preinstalled on the Nokia N86 8MP and its one-click upload. With over-the-air uploads, media can be seen within seconds from Ovi Share and other media sharing sites. The Nokia N86 8MP also comes preloaded with Ovi services including Ovi Maps, N-Gage and Ovi Files. With exceptional build quality and loaded with features, the Nokia N86 8MP continues the reputation that people expect from the Nokia Nseries.
The Nokia N86 8MP will be available for $558.00 through Nokia Flagship Stores and www.NokiaUSA.com in the coming weeks.
Boy do I love how CrunchGear dismiss everything that doesn’t have an apple on it… with little or no reason.
Who said anything about the iPhone?
Peter, what a well written article. Looks like you are on the step for prime time on Techcrunch. Keep up your amazing work
$558!!! What is nokia thinking, that we’re going to act like iPhone zombies?
Does anyone care?
About the US or the N86 do you mean?
The only thing people should not care about is Mobile Tech reviews from iphone junkies.
Peter,
We are truly disappointed with your such casual dismissal of what we think is a phone that is clearly ahead of it competitors (assuming you are not smitten by the current fad of touchy feely stuff). N86 is the phone for the people who want a practical solution and not just a pretty face.

Have not got my hands on one of these, but it sounds like just what I have been looking for. A solid constructed phone with good photo and video capabilities. I have been anxiuosly awaiting a NON touch screen compact camera phone. I travel extensivly so space is a premium. Sounds like this phone will allow me to leave my camera in the hotel room 90% of the time. Just hope it’s Mac friendly.
