Nokia N86 8MP features amazing active kickstand

by Nilay Patel posted May 1st 2009 at 9:52PM

So here we were, thinking that the Nokia N86 8MP was just a featurebumped N85, and what happens? These screenshots showing off a series of custom settings for the kickstand in the back leak out and blow our minds. See, the N95 just has a dumb plastic stand back there, but the N86 8MP can actually launch an app when you flip it out, making it an instant video player, picture frame, or speaker system. That's innovation, friends. Now let's party.

hmmm.. Have you ever seen a N85? I currently use one and as much as I would like to have a kickstand on it, it doesn't have one. So the N86 actually upgrades the N85 by adding a plastic kickstand AND a kickstand program.

Innovation would be a Nokia that's both actually desirable and cheaper than a new gaming PC.
