Flip them on their sides (for the N95, you'll also need to pull out a dedicated multimedia keypad) and they'll automatically switch to landscape mode - great for watching video clips.
Call Quality: Both phones offer good sound quality.
Though both offer excellent features, the N95 is faster and gives you the freedom to roam.

The camera is quick, too, as Nokia have added a dedicated CPU and frame memory for the camera, meaning the camera functionality can act virtually independently of the main phone itself.
As long as battery life isn't compromised too much, this phone has winner written all over it.
Raising the bar with a whopping 5. 0 megapixel camera, this is an actual phone and camera combination that is practical for the first time.
Description It's a mobile phone, portable GPS, professional camera, and mini-supercomputer all in one.
I have one and trust me just the Voip feature thru Wifi is incredible.
Actually, Nokia n95 is awarded to be the best current cellphone in the world in 2007 of best of whats new.
Man im loving this. the ppl with n95 need to stick together. i have one who else does? we need to tell apple why theirs is inferior to ours. and we have to prove it. we have to take a stand and stop other ppl with iphones who say there phone is better when it isnt even close
An excellent phone which is from an entirely different class.
Perhaps the coolest thing about the N95, however, is the dual slider design.
With the receiver hidden under the keypad, one simply slides the keypad open, orients it skyward and waits for a fix.
Nokia mobile phones are very famous phone.
The phone looks, feels and works damn nicely. . .
Not much difference between the 95 and 73 just that the N95 has got 2 bigger advantages and they are just features and a 5MP camera.
Underneath the snazzy new exterior, the Nokia N95 8GB packs in an awesome number of features.
The camera is one of the N95 8GB's strongest points - it's a 5 megapixel unit with autofocus and Carl Zeiss optics.
The display is a glorious 2. 6 inch QVGA with 16 million colours for superb web browsing using Nokia's glorious Mini Map feature, which lets you zoom in and out of web pages.

Reviewer: Paul G - Hitchin, UK Date: 28th Jul 2008 No doubt about it, this is a very good phone.
I have a MP3 player, excellent camera in my mobile.
As I said way back in December it's the best phone I've ever had & I've had lots of them.
There are a few itty bitty gripes such as no lens cover on the camera (which is superb) & the supplied headphones.
Reviewer: Phil Dean - Devonport Tasmania, Australia Date: 14th Apr 2008 Got the n95 3 model from USA was suppose to be made in Sweden model but was made Korea, but other than this so far so good best phone ever & takes great pictures & movies too.
Reviewer: Dana - Iran Date: 11th Apr 2008 I think N95 is a strongest mobile phone in the world because my mobile phone has fallen many times but nothing happened.
Granted the N95 is pleasing to the eye, but all that glitters is not gold.
The camera is good with 5MP carl zeiss & I like the 3. 5 hsdpa.
I must say this is an excellent handset.
Actually it's a very good phone but Nokia, you can do better than that?
This phone does exactly what it sets out to do, the camera is great with good quality photos (remember this is a phone not a SLR).
It's a brilliant phone!
Are you sure it is not an N95 copy? the camera is very good.
Some features are good but some are pointless.
Reviewer: A - UK Date: 22nd Dec 2007 It's a good phone considering what its features are!
Enjoying, what I consider to be the best phone I have ever owned.
I think you SHOULD GET THIS AWESOME phone.
If not then which phone is better.
Battery is good depending on usage plus I have a home charger & a car charger.
Reviewer: Modas - London, UK Date: 21st Nov 2007 Excellent phone, if you want one go get it now.
Reviewer: Alex - Swansea, UK Date: 17th Nov 2007 This phone is a good phone.
I don't know anyone else with the phone (much clever than me) so would be interested in finding out if anyone else has this or if I need to visit an Orange shop AGAIN.
Reviewer: J - Manchester, UK Date: 8th Nov 2007 Good phone, only drawback is that if answer the phone when using the sat nav (Co pilot) the sat nav cuts out & has to be reset, a pain when driving!
Overall a clever phone but not a user friendly mobile phone.
Camera is better than my Kodak digital camera from 2004.
Reviewer: M - UK Date: 30th Oct 2007 To Jinky - you say stop complaining about battery life because of all the amazing features, yet when you try to use these amazing feature the battery dies before you can say wow!
Isn't good battery life one of the main points of a MOBILE phone, what's the point of having a MOBILE if the battery doesn't last long enough to leave the charger, slight exaggeration but you get my point!
Battery life wise I killed the first charge in 8-9 hours the second charge in about 14 hours though a lot of this is due to having things always on. Charged it up over night on Wednesday & here I am Saturday night still having 2 bars.
Had poor reception on radio Scotland the other week. - won't make my toast in the morning On the whole, an outstanding phone.
Good screen, music clear, pictures are great & sit on net at work & battery is fine too.
They give you a 1g memory card, which is nice of them.
The camera's good, but that shouldn't be a major selling point when the phone itself isn't fantastic.
Lovely phone all round, although the slider mechanism feels a little flimsy.
Terrible, yes, the camera is amazing, it has lots of nice features.
Awesome features looks sleek.
About the rest nothing to say just excellent features!
The camera is better than my digital & the pictures are clear the zoom is great.
Reviewer: Rudy - Mauritius Date: 27th Aug 2007 It's a really good phone.

The only good thing about it is the camera, that's OK for a phone.
Reviewer: JD Wright - London, UK Date: 9th Jul 2007 The N95 is quite simply the best phone I have ever owned.
Reviewer: Uhmm - Netherlands Date: 9th Jul 2007 It's look a nice phone but I am thinking because I must have a phone but I don't no which phone please help me!
Screen has good clarity until you are in Full Sunlight, then it was impossible to see anything.
Size is good, considering what gadgets are in here, you have to applaud Nokia on this.
Reviewer: Anon - UK Date: 24th Jun 2007 The N95 sounds like a really nice phone.
Reviewer: Faraz Shaikh - Mumbai, India Date: 24th Jun 2007 Hey it really a good phone, but there is problem with me while I am accessing the video clips, especially video clip more than 50MB it gives the error message 'general: Memory to low, close some application first'.
Reviewer: Pulkit - Delhi, India Date: 16th Jun 2007 It is an awesome mobile phone.
Reviewer: Marios - Nicosia, Cyprus Date: 15th Jun 2007 I do not believe it will last for too long, but the features are good.
I got one thinking it was going to be a good phone, but it's too flimsy, too bulky & for people who have too much time in there hands (you'll need the extra time to work out what all the features do).
Reviewer: Dizzy - UK Date: 11th Jun 2007 So many people have complained about this phone, but I love it!
Reviewer: Sharry - Karachi, Pakistan Date: 5th Jun 2007 It was a perfect phone for business.

Reviewer: Yushita - UK Date: 4th May 2007 Such a good phone, had it 2 weeks now that I upgraded my wife to it as well!
If you want a SatNav, buy it separately, but don't knock Nokia for producing a feature packed innovative phone.
Reviewer: Neil - Market Harborough, UK Date: 1st May 2007 Hi, I think this phone is great in many respects but not actually as a phone!
So the occasional time when one wishes to reference ones location, the GPS is very useful.
The video camera is as good as a camcorder.
Usability is very good while the two way sliding & screen rotation make it more user friendly.
Everything works just fine, photos are very good, sound is very good even without headphones it is still reasonable stereo.
Here are some of my experiences with it so far :- Pros: Excellent features.
Video is so far my fav option as the quality is really good.
Camera is good, great video, but isn't all what it's hyped up to be.
Photo quality is good but a bit dark - the firmware needs looked at.
The video is also good & the sound quality excellent.
It was a crasher but it has some amazing features, like when you cannot make it to a meeting you simple set it to Hologram mode & it projects a 3d image of you in to the room, excellent idea Nokia!
Other than that, I don't see why it shouldn't be voted the best phone of the year.
It could do with a bit better design but other than that it's the best phone yet.
Reviewer: Deby - UK Date: 12th Mar 2007 Very good phone, features & usability.
Reviewer: Bob - UK Date: 3rd Mar 2007 This is hereby the best mobile phone ever created it has all of the features of the best PDAs with a great camera dn Nokia's famous styling.
But a good phone.
Reviewer: Rashidur Rahman - Dhaka, Bangladesh Date: 17th Feb 2007 The Nokia n95 is very good phone.
Reviewer: City Yuppie - London, UK Date: 13th Feb 2007 Good design (a little less bulk would make it perfect), great feature set, no idea yet about usability.
Reviewer: Gaurav - Faridabad, India Date: 10th Feb 2007 Good phone as compared to others.
Everyone knows that a manufacturer NEVER produces 'the perfect phone'.
Reviewer: Francisco Azevedo - Luanda, Angola Date: 25th Jan 2007 The N95 looks perfect, as all in the N Series.
Reviewer: Navdeep Kajal - Peterborough, Canada Date: 22nd Jan 2007 I think this n95 looks good.
The features are quite good but come on, who's going to pay loads & wait for ages to use its satellite thingy.
Reviewer: Gunit - US Date: 2nd Jan 2007 This phone is really good it offers lots & lots of features.

Reviewer: Shahram - Esfahan, Iran Date: 10th Nov 2006 It's a very nice phone, but very pricey.
Whoever designed this stunning piece of technology I'd like to shake his hand.
Reviewer: Ashooor - Egypt Date: 20th Oct 2006 This is the best phone.
The handset comes with a very powerful 5 megapixel digital camera.
It has got so much with high-speed connectivity, an excellent display, and fine photo and video capabilities.
With their Mix and Match Plan you can choose a combination of minutes and text messages, a perfect combination for those who may do more texting than talking.
The camera is one of Nokia's best yet, with a whopping five megapixels
The battery isn’t that good and the phone likes to crash on regular occasions.
Great camera, nice GPS locator, very clear and big screen, comfortable keypad, WiFi, Radio, high quality sound, what else can anyone ask for?
Brilliant phone- only fault is the battery.
I am impressed with it, the only fault I can find is that the Sat Nav takes a bit longer than I would like to lock on. Battery life however for me is pretty good.
I think this is the best phone in the world at the moment.
The camera is very good, but very slow to launch.
My car already has a dedicated GPS with voice, the viaMichelin.
For example: many, many people use their phones for taking photos, in preference to using dedicated cameras.
The N95 is a very good phone LayZ.
I have the Nokia N95 and its a fantastic phone.
Sounds like a pretty good phone.
RF performance is very good.
Camera takes good pictures
The panel also commented on the device's outstanding audio, video and web capabilities and its GPS functionality.
The camera also has auto focus, flash light and uses efficient image processing algorithms.
Despite of being a smartphone, Nokia N95 is pretty light and small.
The main attraction of this device is its 5-megapixel camera that comes with Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens.
The phone comes in the gorgeous black color.
Thus Nokia N95 8Gb is a complete baggage of media software, smart video and audio features, efficient organizer along with the perfect online connectivity.
The back of the Nokia N95 looks like a regular digital camera.
A– The N95’s 5-megapixel camera and Tessar lens delivered the best photos in the pack.
There are actually two applications on the N95 for your GPS fix.
The sleek black N95 8GB also boasts a luminous 2. 8" (240 x 320) QVGA display, so watching videos, browsing the Internet or viewing maps is a real pleasure.
I want to buy this cool phone N95
It is a good phone
the price would be 33,000 in the indian market. . . . this is going to be the best phone in India after its launch
Nice and amazing phone arriving in india.
How good is the software?
I would like to know if they did anything with the software to improve this hardware problem.
Oh, and a full suite of N-series applications and an excellent Web browser (with Wi-Fi support).
This is a reasonably light handset for a multimedia computer and the Nokia design team must be congratulated.
The Nokia N95 offers a powerful 5 megapixel camera with a Carl Zeiss Tessar 2. 8/5. 6 mm lens, auto focus and flash.
One thing to remember is that you need to have the bottom slider open to get the best GPS signal because this is where the antenna is situated.
The bottom line for the N95 is that it is getting close, but at the moment cannot fully replace a dedicated digital camera or a sat-nav system.
The S60 Web browser is good.
Find more information on the Nokia N 95, the Nokia N95 is the latest addition to Nokias popular N Series line.
About 7 weeks ago I bought a Nokia N95 and I love it.
DVD quality video" is pretty good too.
Transfers speeds are quite good using this method.
Run" hcitool scan" (without the quotes) to get the bluetooth address for your phone
My N95 went from taking about 5 minutes to get a fix to picking it up in a matter of seconds, and can even get a fix, albeit less accurately, indoors.
Although it is still an attractive bundle of capabilities, the purchase would have been intended to save time and simplify, not graft a new limb of pain onto my business life.
the phone is nice but recently I was unable to swiech it on
This is very nice phone.
Hi, Nokla n95 is good phone , But Can we repair it or not.
Sat Nav works a treat (if you can live with the downloading of data), the phone is both powerful and stylish, and its comms is amazing.

Equipped with an amazing 5 megapixel camera, music player, large QVGA display, built in speakers, support for HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access) and integrated GPS.
The Camera boasts a plethora of features including auto focus, red-eye reduction, flash, self timer, Carl Zeiss Optics and there's also a 20 x zoom plus resolution of 2582 x 1944.
Nokia makes really good designs lately.
Making Calls As a phone, the N95 was good.
But if you're a traveler and need to get in touch of people, this is the best phone to get esp with the Internet Phone feature.
The sound is good but not as compared to P990i, I love the bass and equalizers in the P990i.

When the device is turned to landscape mode, this button lines up exactly where the shutter release would be on a regular camera.

Looking at the amount of features the N95 cell phone boasts, it's not surprising that it has been one of the most coveted smart phones since its first announcement in September 2006.
This is largely due to the N95's innovative two-way slider design, which allows you access to the relatively spacious alphanumeric keypad and the media player controls by sliding the front cover up and down respectively.

Which cell phone is better?
In the next Nokia N95 test you can read if these functions all perform well, if they have any use, and if the built-in 5 Megapixel camera really is as good as Nokia wants us to believe.
Relatively a good phone but with some flaws.
Good phone indeed, I've been using mine for more than 3 months already, I flashed it with the most recent software V20. 0. 016 pretty fast now.
There are great features which i cant really say at this time, due to the agreement i have with nokia to conceal infos, but there are amazing technology innovations, especially with the wifi built into it.
Other than the Apple phone, I find the features on this phone to be very good.
Well, the Nokia N95 certainly, in my point of view, the best phone yet.

Several popular themes are available, including the Audi and Rain theme shown here.
Its beautiful design and the os is just the best yet in phones right now.
Or ring skype out to their phone made a very good connection and very cheap.
But I do have to say, the video looked pretty sweet, I could only imagine doing this over water (omg what if the camera fell out? ? ) or over a canyon.
The N95 gets the job done nicely with Gmaps, but has the added advantage of the Nokia Maps app which can take advantage of GPS and do point to point navigation.
Contact in color: -With its 2. 2 inch display, Bluetooth connectivity, and excellent audio quality, the Nokia Bluetooth Display Car Kit CK-15W is. . .

The 5 megapixel camera is one of the best cameras ever seen in a mobile phone and the N95 has a TV out port, enabling users to easily view photos and videos on a TV screen.
Very nice and beautiful looking as well as excellent features.
You don’t even have to take it out of the box to see this gorgeous phone.
That large screen dominating the front panel looks fabulous.
No silly adaptors to use your good headphones, just plug them in! And the N95 sounds fantastic through good headphones.
This isn’t the only reason the N95 makes a good music player though.
The phone needs to have good view of the sky for it to work though.
Yes it has a good screen, GPS built in and looks nice, but I just can’t see how they justify the price.
The incoming call quality was very good but it was too responsive to the surrounding noise.
The audio quality was really good as well the radio receiving capability (though not all radio stations were received good).
The replay of the video was good and even the streaming videos from YouTube and other sites were really good.
WiFi reception on this phone is better than my other WiFi-enabled Nokia phones, at least in the one spot in my house where it is frequently unreliable.
The N95 also boasts a 5-megapixel camera, built-in Wi-Fi for accessing the Internet using hotspots in public places or enterprise wireless local area networks, and built-in GPS.

Good phone, alot of software to get the techie to buy in! WiFi is handy and great for the first week you own the phone, but pretty useless outside your own home where a pc is a little easier.
S60, the most popular software for smartphones keeps you connected to your favorite internet services and let you add new application to your mobile device - in much the same way you would with your PC.
There are a number of different phones in this series and they are characterized by a large price in exchange for a number of really cool features.
Good phone, only drawback is that if answer the phone when using the sat nav (Co pilot) the sat nav cuts out & has to be reset, a pain when driving!
The best phone I've EVER had.
Nokia upgrades its Nokia N95 model looking to make it an even smoother operator.
Obviously, where music is concerned, you need good battery life - a marked weakness on the original N95.
With still objects, however, image quality was good.
This handset is a smooth performer.
The 16 million color QVGA screen is quite nice too.
Truly an amazing Phone by NOKIA.
With a decent 5Mp camera running roughly $200 it is easy to understand the hefty price tag of the Nokia N95-3.
Being able to leave a small cable in the car for those moments when you want to show off a video at a party or event are priceless.
The stylish look of the Nokia Bluetooth Headset BH-801 reflects its high quality and innovative design approach.
The superb web browser, media player (accessed by sliding the screen away from the rippled keypad), efficient messaging and office software found on previous N handsets are wisely left unchanged.
In the box we also found a TV A/V cable, a leather case, a 3. 5mm headset (which had very good sound quality), a 3. 5mm-to-3. 5mm adapter with push-talk/volume buttons on it, a USB cable, a CDROM, manuals, a screen protector, a 1 GB microSD card and a travel charger.
Very good call quality and speaker phone.
Also Nokia Web Browser with Mini Map, e-mail client with attachment support for images, videos, music and documents are some of the strongest features of Nokia N95 8GB.
GPS on the Nokia n95 is pretty good, it takes about 5 minutes to connect which can be a pain when you're in a rush, but once the N95 is connected to the GPS satelites it works like a charm.
The Nokia n95 comes with 1GB Micro SD card which is ideal for storing MP3's, photos, maps for the GPS, applications or themes.
Negative sentences
The bottom line: With a 5-megapixel camera, advanced multimedia capabilities, and GPS, there's no doubt that the Nokia N95 is one of the most feature-packed smart phones to date, but poor battery life and sluggish performance make it hard to justify the high price tag.
Also, all of the phone's features take a toll on the device's battery and processor, as standby battery life was pretty sad and performance was somewhat sluggish.
However, we noticed the N95's screen had a nasty habit of holding fingerprints and smudges, so keep some kind of wipe cloth close by.
In terms of general performance, the N95 was fairly sluggish.
The bad: Without the back of a U. S. carrier, the Nokia N95 is expensive and the hardware feels a bit plasticky.
When we reviewed the original Nokia N95, we were pretty disappointed at the sluggish performance of the smart phone.
The original N95 suffered the same problem, and the OS would shut down apps when too many were taking up memory, but the phone sometimes slowed down or gave out of memory error messages on the route to managing memory for the user.
Not that the N95 is a bad phone, au contraire, it's very impressive, but the N95-3 tweaks and twiddles the original model to excellence.

Aside from the lack of a full keyboard, the N95 has earned its reputation as a phone for phone geeks.
My only complaint is battery life is not the best, but i hear that the north american edition and the 8gig versions are better in that area.

The GPS is slow to load the first time, but that's minor.

Battery life does seem to be a shame.
My major headache is the GPS.
Battery life is really bad and I know all the tricks to decreasing it too, still, it compares ridiculously to my other phones.
We ran our own tests of the N95 browser with Flash turned off in New York and San Francisco, and found some interesting results: The N95 is often slower than was demoed at WWDC.
Latest by bungee : I've less issues with the Chinese copying the design (which is still wrong) than trying to pass this off as the real thing.

A small, expensive smartphone that's packed with features
Product: Nokia N95 Carrier: None yet, but designed to work on GSM networks Price: $750, unlocked Availability: Now, through independent retailers and Nokia direct What it is: The Nokia N95 is a very expensive smartphone that crams many features and capabilities into a small package.
The worst thing about the N95 is the lack of touch screen / qwerty key board, which is a must for email and browsing. it is a pain to do typing, navigating, selecting with the keyboard.
The only weakness of the N95 is the battery life.
The only thing missing is touch screen!
Unfortunately, due to high demand, the Nokia N95 may be a little difficult to get ahold of at the MSRP of $750.
While we appreciate the short cut to taking additional images, sometimes we might want to save the image only to the included 2GB microSD card, and not to the included 160MB of memory, for example - and for those circumstances, the Nokia N95's lack of a save option becomes noticeable.
The battery life is poor, with daily charges needed most times. but as that is the only caveat.
This phone is a symbol of everything wrong with the established mobile phone operators - bloated, slow, counterintuitive and unreliable.
The only problem, present in recent S60 camera phones, and also strongly affecting the N95 is incorrect automatic white balance resulting in excessive magenta saturation giving pictures unnatural, purple hue.
What this does confirm is that the 8GB version exists, although other rumours regarding the omission of GPS are still unconfirmed. If you know who took the photo or any more details about the phone, please do let us know in the comments!
The bad: The 8GB N95 can be sluggish at times, and call quality could have been better.
Hopefully you will never have to experience that" sinking feeling" when your smartphone goes missing.
Drop the bulky digital camera you?ve been lugging around and take advantage of the 5 Megapixel camera included with the Nokia N95 8GB.
The radio suffers from poor reception, maybe its just mine as nobody else has complained about radio reception quality.
Battery life is poor but simply charge it every night and problem solved.
Well N95 has very few disadvantages ex:no external memory slot,no lens cover ,other than this its great. .
Although DVD quality is certainly an exaggeration by Nokia, but video recorded on N95 definitely offers quality of amateur single-sensor mini-DV camcorders.
Sorry Nokia, I am a big fan of yours, but the N95 is rubbish.
I never experienced any trouble with the battery, though never kept the blue tooth on. The design is poor, & was hard to scroll through the programs.
I know it has a lot of built in features (most of them being very disappointing), but even so, this phone is quite bulky & old fashioned in its design.
Overall it's not a bad phone, try your best not to drop it.
Was advised by upgrade person that n95 is now problem free & the best phone around so I went for it again (not the 8GB one).
Seriously, if your phone keeps crashing, return it, you obviously have a faulty phone!
It has a very bad design.
It freezes, decides to go through my gallery mid text to the point where I just want to throw the thing across the room, the battery life is poor & I am charging this phone twice a day.
It should be called a bad phone which I believe to be a far more accurate & worthy title than Smartphone which it certainly is not.
Design: The phone is actually quite bulky, & yet the slide is very flimsy to the touch & feel as you are using it, you can buy a set of plastic covers from eBay which look dreadful & actually hinder the use of some of the buttons.
Reviewer: Simon Rabson - London, UK Date: 31st Jan 2008 The keypad is a bit strange, it's quite bulky & battery is not great but apart from that it an amazing phone.
Features are OK but. - It's very thick. - Battery is bad (I need to recharge the phone all the time).
Then the replacement had a faulty GPS which the network provider wouldn't replace (T mobile) & I had to wait for it to be repaired.
The battery life has been very poor, even with minimal usage.
Reviewer: Mikey - Ramsgate, UK Date: 6th Jan 2008 I love this phone it's the best one I've had all though the battery life is really rubbish I get about a day out of it but if you can put up with charging it every night then I recommend it apart from that like I said great phone.
I think this phone is rubbish.
The battery is weak enough but seems to last longer on V20 firmware.
The GPS is slow to lock on. Bad Camera?
Reviewer: Lez - UK Date: 21st Dec 2007 Good phone with POOR battery also a little slow for its spec!
Reviewer: Denise - Malta Date: 17th Dec 2007 This phone is slow & CRASHES all the time.
However, I have heard from some of my mates saying that it lags, bad battery life, slow sending SMS.
Reviewer: Greebe - UK Date: 18th Nov 2007 Ace phone just bad battery thats all.
However what is the point of having all this fancy stuff when you can't even use it as your battery dies before you turn it on so the battery life is very poor on this phone & would definitely not recommend it.
Reviewer: Matt B - UK Date: 28th Oct 2007 Everyone says that's it has bad battery, or that it's too slow, etc.
Nokia were well aware of the poor battery life.
My Nokia experience wasn't too bad, if I could change one thing I guess it would be an extra day or two for the battery life, traveling from Yorkshire to Bristol using my hands-free kit the battery failed miserably-dead in no time.
Some reviews say that the phone is slow but it's about twice as fast as my D600e.
Reviewer: Andrew - Lee, UK Date: 4th Oct 2007 Battery life awful, handset regularly freezes, unable now to access SMS & call history, Maps is a joke, camera good but quite laborious to use.
What's wrong with having a slightly bulky phone?
The phone is extremely slow & does everyone's favourite thing, FREEZES.
GPS gave a little bit of trouble the 1st time since it stayed for like 15min before getting a lock & as far as it goes the map for Malta isn't supported well.
Reviewer: Christopher - Wolverhampton, UK Date: 16th Sep 2007 A lot of people are saying that this phones battery life is poor, but that is because they have all done one fundamental thing wrong.
Also, the slide design makes it difficult to lock, it is constantly turning the camera on in your pocket, which, with a battery life this short, soon compounds battery life problems.
Sure the battery life is rubbish & there are sometimes intermittent crashes.
All you would expect from a top spec Nokia, with exception to the shockingly poor battery life.
Bad design features are too confusing & overall usability is rubbish.
Reviewer: Nokia N95 - UK Date: 18th Jul 2007 Not a bad phone but could of done better.
Sure it does a load of stuff but not very well - the GPS is poor compared to my 2 year old Tom Tom.
The only thing missing in my opinion is touch screen capability.
Yes, the battery life is poor - a charge every 24-48 hours is more often required with occasional/recreational use, but what can you expect from a multi-functional technological behemoth that is the N95.
Reviewer: Karl - Preston, UK Date: 23rd May 2007 What a terrible phone, it looks horrible & is hard to use.
But too bulky, poor battery life only lasted 2 days & I was charging it every few hours.
In South Africa this phone is very expensive.
The battery life is rubbish until you turn off the 3G, my navigation button stopped working completely, & every now again the mic would stop working so nobody could hear me. After a long letter to my network provider they have agreed to change it for a completely different phone.
It crashed every couple of hours & on at least three occasions, had to remove the battery because all it had on the screen was 'Nokia'. 2nd N95 proved that there was indeed a hardware problem with the first as the battery life is twice as good & now lasts nearly 2 days.
Got my phone on 4th April, initially ignored instant problems like repeatedly having to input speed dial numbers, headphones falling out my ears & weirdly positioned socket then the phone freezing, plus I was spending ages playing with it.
The battery life is rubbish.
Reviewer: Jason - US Date: 6th Apr 2007 Got this phone 4 days ago it is a cool phone, BUT the battery life is really awful & I mean bad, 14 hours if you don't use it!
I have also had problems with getting the gps to work, but I think I might buy the tomtom software for it anyway as apparently the gps that is on it already is slow & uses a lot of battery & you have to be online the whole way through it.
Reviewer: Michael Jenkis - UK Date: 4th Apr 2007 I've been playing with it for the past three hours & I love it. :) Only bad thing about it is the extremely slow GPS.
Reviewer: Andy - London, UK Date: 23rd Mar 2007 Like all the N series phones its software is full of bugs rendering most of its features unusable.
Reviewer: Anom - UK Date: 5th Mar 2007 This is a bad boy phone.
Reviewer: Janak Thaker - Auckland, New Zealand Date: 26th Feb 2007 The only thing missing is touch screen, even then it feels un-intimidating & this is the phone to beat.
Reviewer: Joseph - UK Date: 16th Feb 2007 For those who rate it with rubbish features, YOU ARE WRONG!
This Symbian-based multimedia phone lacks a touchscreen or QWERTY keyboard, focusing more on music, video, and photos.
Keep in mind that this is a very expensive phone at about $750.
The GPS is very insensitive and frequently loses track.
Maybe I am biased but the fact is that nokia n95 has very very poor GPS chip of low sensitivity.
Like the 3650, the n95 is way ahead of its time, only problem with the phone is its battery, apart from that there is nothing i feel that can even get close to it at the moment.
A 2MP camera I have come to regard as a waste of weight and battery on the phone.
The N95 GPS is unreliable.
The reason I mention this is because USB transfers to and from the n95 are pretty slow.
The N95 seems to fail ins switchig between GSM and 3G when it comes to voice. now it is 2 units (Nokia axchanged one already) and the unit goes to no signal if i goea out of 3G into a an EDGE with Normal GSM for voice.
One of the biggest issues with the original N95 was the same problem that has plagued various Series 60 handsets for awhile now, lack of RAM.
On the left the new N95 loses the cover and moves the flash below the lens.
C The N95’s stellar camera couldn’t offset its high price and lack of keyboard.
Finally, the big bad version of the Nokia N95 tumbled out of Nokia's stables.
The GPS is a little slow to lock, but once it gets a lock it is right to go. The wifi works well.
Copying files to/from the N95 can be a little slow.
When I attempt to run the synchronization the N95 displays an error message saying"
I must say the slower CPU makes me mad in the 8GB model as this just hitting the talk time quota, durrr.
The earpice sound quality was poor and the slide function started to show signs of wear after just 3 days.
The only thing I felt that this phone lacked and that I should mention is the fact that it lacks a microSD expansion.
With a 5-megapixel camera, advanced multimedia capabilities, and GPS, there's no doubt that the Nokia N95 is one of the most feature-packed smart phones to date, but poor battery life and sluggish performance make it hard to justify the high price tag.
One change that we're less enthused about is the omission of a MicroSD card slot, though 8GB should be enough memory for almost anybody.
The phone is little heavy in terms of software.
With the price we pay for this phone, the service and response from Nokia is truly disappointing.
With all the features it needs to support, the N95 is a bit sluggish, but not enough to be annoying.
Wi-Fi helps soften the blow, but the phone was designed from the start to download and run many Internet-aware apps -- and without those, it becomes an expensive media phone rather than the inexpensive mobile computer it w. . . Read more
I had some problems with my N95 8Gb, but I was able to modify the plug-in provided by Nokia, so now it works both with Tiger and Leopard.
I phone is just a waste i love my n95 8gb it has everything i need plus a ton of extras i dont plus it comes factory unlocked
Note that N95-1 batteries do fit (loosely) but the phone hates them.
It has no features, wastes screen space and generally sucks.
I really wanted to like the N95 like Jenneth does hers, but I don’t, the lack of a keyboard and terrible battery life killed it for me.
The 5 MP (2592 x 1944 pixels) camera in Nokia N95 with Carl Zeiss optics is one of the features that made to consider buying this phone and I was not disappointed.
We talked by phone and Twitter about the problem and need for a solution as so many of these high value on-the-spot videos were devalued by the unacceptable lack of audible audio.
If your mobile phone gets misplaced or lost, you can inform the the network provider who can then put the serial number (the IMEI number for the phone) on a shared database.
To cap it all, battery life is poor - you'll often find you're out of power within 24 hours.
This one has been upgraded to the latest software, so lacks the glitches you'll see early owners suffering, and it runs perfectly!
The camera is still a little slow and the battery is not the strongest.
Pocket PCs are great devices, but the biggest weakness in packing features and increased data speeds is battery life.
However, a real problem is the build quality of the phone: it is not a sturdy phone.
Both phones are great for VOIP client software and where I live in Cobh, the call quality over wifi is significantly better than the expensive GSM alternative!
If you do not have 3G at your local area then you should not waste your money for such expensive phone - you wont' be able to take advantage of these feautres - why pay for that?
Very negative sentences
No Mail 4 Exchange support : And lastly, what I really hate most about this phone is the terrible email support.
I've rated usability as 30% because of the battery yes the BATTERY is a disaster.
Camera is disastrous & trying for GPS is a big joke, takes ages & suddenly freezes.
Reviewer: Steve Butcher - London, UK Date: 22nd Apr 2007 Phone is great, but is anybody else out there experiencing terrible battery life, or do I have a rogue battery?
My camera has 7 megapixels, and the photo quality is generally awful.
