Boasting a full range of multimedia capabilities and new mobile service offers, the Nokia N85 is comparable to the Nokia N95 with only a few key differences hardware-wise.

Along with a 2.6" OLED screen, the Nokia N85 boasts N-Gage gaming, music with built-in FM transmitter, 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and geotagging capabilities.

A 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and dual LED flash captures VGA-quality videos at 30 frames per second. Combined with A-GPS it is possible to geotag favorite pictures to see where each photo was taken using the Nokia Maps application or online sites such as Share on Ovi or Flickr. The Nokia N85 also offers a full range of standard scene modes, including Portrait, Landscape, Close-up, Sport and Night. It also offers a red-eye reduction flash mode and a flash range of up to 3 meters. However, the camera lens found in the Nokia N85 does not match the focal length of Sony Ericsson's upcoming Cyber-shot camera phone.
Each Nokia N85 comes with an 8GB microSD card, and a 3.5mm audio jack makes enables users to connect their favorite headset without the requirement of a converter. The Nokia N85 also supports the Nokia Music Store and other online music vendors, and music libraries can be synchronized via an USB cable. A built-in FM transmitter also lets Nokia N85 users play wirelessly through a car or home stereo.

Gaming, photos, navigation and music blend together with the newest Ovi and third party services via 3.5G HSDPA and Wi-Fi connectivity. A pre-loaded Nokia Download! application lets users download third party entertainment content, the latest in mobile gaming as well as dynamic applications (widgets).
The Nokia N85 offers a claimed talk time of 4.5 hours, measures 4.1 by 2 by 0.63 inches and weighs in at 4.53 ounces.
