Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: Fantastic camera, specifically designed to flourish in low-light settings. Variable aperture is great, and the third generation dual LEDs really are much brighter than previous gen. LEDs. 10/10.
Feels awesome in the hand. Pictures do not do it justice. Absolutely brilliant industrial design. Metal and scratch-resistant glass are a nice pragmatic touch that I hope Nokia will incorporate in more Nseries devices in the future.
Symbian S60! Tons of apps. Bit-torrent on your phone. A limewire-like app even exists for p2p! Any app you desire is there on S60. You just need to dig around the web a bit to find what you want. Google is your friend.
Active homescreen is great. Previews of your email right there is a smart choice. The new Nokia Messaging email client is fantastic and feels a lot different than the S60 5th edition NM client. I think that this new N86 NM client might be migrating to the 5th edition OS soon, which is cool, since N86 had it first.
Already has firmware up
Cons: S60 is showing its age, although it is every bit as capable as any other mobile OS around.
QWERTY would be awesome. A tiny Pre-style QWERTY would be perfect.
Small screen resolution. Web browsing suffers. Still good though.
Lack of a hardware gpu acceleration chip. Video playback through TV-out suffers. Still usable if video is converted to a low quality (less pleasurable to view, though).
Other Thoughts: The best Nseries device yet (barring the N900 which isn't out yet).
