Its 2.1-inch display has a pixel density of 259 ppi due to the 352x416 resolution on a 2.1" display making it one of Nokia's sharpest displays of 2005 and 2006.
The N80 was the world's first UPnP-compatible phone, allowing the transfer of media files to compatible devices over Wi-Fi.[2] The N80 was officially described as a multimedia computer by Nokia, like its successor Nokia N95.

Bluetooth
Nokia originally announced the N80 as supporting Bluetooth 2.0, however it was released with Bluetooth 1.2.[3][4][5] Therefore, the N80 does not currently support stereo playback over Bluetooth.
The Nokia N80 Internet Edition was a second version of this handset with the same hardware as the normal N80. As of January 2007, the Pearl Black model was available for sale in the US for $499.[6]

Nokia have now announced that the new Internet Edition firmware is available for the 'classic' N80 by using Nokia Official Software Updater, downloadable from Nokia.com.
Before the Internet Edition firmware was made available on the Nokia Software Updater, end users could update the N80 to the same specification as an N80 Internet Edition by flashing the N80 with the firmware from the N80 Internet Edition.[7] This required the use of several hacked Nokia servicing software applications, including the Phoenix Service Software (or Nokia Software Update with Nemesis (by changing product code)). This method is of questionable legality in some jurisdictions, and may violate the terms of the phone's warranty[citation needed]. There are reports of the occasional failure of this method due to user error or for other unknown reasons, leaving the phone in an unusable state from which only a properly-equipped service center could recover it.
