Nokia's N85 films rooftop unboxing of another N85

We tell ya, these unboxers are really stepping up their game of late. Easily topping that trunk lid episode we saw back in July, this Nokia N85 unboxing sees one N85 film another N85's initial escape from cardboard purgatory... from the roof of a building in New York City. There's no real surprises here -- just an N85 twirled around on a video that's almost entirely out of focus -- and the absence of monologue is downright creepy. That said, we still highly recommend clicking through the break to see this puppy on video. Just bring your own tunes, you'll need 'em.

why film the unboxing of something with the same product? Especially a phone , the video quality will almost always be bad.

[Rauha @ Oct 10th 2008 1:18AM]

Did you look at the video at all?

The quality is amazingly good for camera recorder, just look at how sharp everything besides the N85 look.

It's just that the quy shooting doesn't know what he is doing.

LOL I work in that office, I didn't know they were doing an unboxing :P

Ok...
But what you interesting?

[Luke D @ Oct 9th 2008 10:36PM]

How meta...

[Charbax @ Oct 9th 2008 10:37PM]

Does he throw it off the building at the end of the video?

[Jon Nelson @ Oct 9th 2008 11:10PM]

Now THAT would be worth watching!

[Garst @ Oct 10th 2008 4:26AM]

No, it would be funny if the box with the one he planned to record opening fell over the edge of the build, then dropped the other one over the edge as he reached over the edge in vain trying to catch the first one.

Bruce Wayne got the Nokia Tube early and now the N85! Anybody know who his connect is?

[)law( @ Oct 9th 2008 11:06PM]

Are you kidding me? If it was Bruce Wayne the video would be shot in Hd 1080p resolution and in a private location.

[Ashraf @ Oct 9th 2008 10:43PM]

nice phone

[sr @ Oct 10th 2008 8:53PM]

Hey Rahua, sure but it is definitely Nokia viral marketing. They have shot ads in NYC of products not yet available in the US before and they've gone and done it again.

[sr @ Oct 9th 2008 11:27PM]

Why in the hell do they do the unboxing in NYC when the US version won't be out for months? Get the fvck out of the US if you can't release your products here at the same time as the rest of the world. Do film your sh t somewhere else where the product will actually be available. Stupid Nokia.

[Bassir @ Oct 9th 2008 11:58PM]

I love you.

[steve @ Oct 10th 2008 12:06AM]

it's 3G in the US too. don't have to wait for a US version this time around.

[Rauha @ Oct 10th 2008 1:22AM]

You really think this out of focus amateur piece of art is done by Nokia? Or could it be done by some random geek?

I''m selling clues so start saving now.

[asg84 @ Oct 10th 2008 6:16AM]

its not nokia delaying phone release, its stupid carriers

[sr @ Oct 10th 2008 8:51PM]

Hey Steve I know that, but what about warranty? My N95-1 needed a repair and my N78 needs its right speaker fixed. These things happen and if you walk into the Nokia store with an import they will turn you away. I've been buying Nokia phones for years so I know that.

[anon @ Oct 9th 2008 11:47PM]

Wait..wheres the fancy nokia guitar pick ?

[sr @ Oct 9th 2008 11:51PM]

This is not a touch screen.

[steve @ Oct 10th 2008 12:03AM]

the N85 is 3G in US too.

[Lloytron @ Oct 10th 2008 4:29AM]

That UK charger will be really handy in NY :D

[KRIS_C_123 @ Oct 10th 2008 8:05AM]

when does this phone come out??

[Muhammed @ Oct 10th 2008 9:59AM]

why, is it a gay phone?

[KRIS_C_123 @ Oct 10th 2008 10:11AM]

you are a gay phone

[bram @ Oct 10th 2008 10:43AM]

I think at the end of october *-)?
I'm also waiting for this amazing device xD

[KRIS_C_123 @ Oct 10th 2008 11:30AM]

thanks for the reply bram, much more informative than mr. gay phone there.

[furui @ Jan 7th 2009 11:02AM]

Wobble, wobble, says the rolling shutter!

Actually I believe that's the man trembling in fear that he'll drop his new toy to it's untimely death.
