Nokia has finally made good with an official announcement about the long rumored black Nokia N82. Besides the colour change, the device remains exactly the same in every other respect with a 5 megapixel camera, A-GPS, HSDPA connectivity and wi-fi.
So not that exciting really then but it does bring Nokia’s Nseries into alignment aesthetically. With the N81, N96 and N78 all sharing a similar piano black finish and other echoing accents, the N82 will now appear much more like part of the family. Could it be that Nokia is set to take a much stronger approach to creating brand identity for its handsets in the wake of the iconic iPhone?
That might be a bit of a leap of faith on our part but it certainly seems that way. Hit the jump for more shots of the N82 in its shiny new clothes.
Fantasic looking phone far far better than current models and one for me now it’s in black
