Dear GSMarena,

In your review of N95, under 5 heading i.e Telephone, ringtones etc, u have mentioned, that when a N95 receives a call, one can see the name, thumbnail and number ? can you please explain how can one see the number, i have been trying to get that, but not possible.

Kindly revert back if you can,
Regards,

and and there is a bar which stated that exceeding certain level of zooming, it will go blur. but not exceeding that bar, you can get a 5mp quailty imagine when your transfer it to PC..

AIKON : you cant expect a phone zoom without a optical zoom to be that clear on full zoom, you should compare it to other device for example Sony cybershot, n95 is still better off for the zoom.

And for your info n95 is digital zoom not optical.
if you want a nice and clear zooming phone, get N93 with 3x optical zoom. you get it eh ?

I'd been waiting for the N95 to come out in Australia since late 2006. The main feature I was after was the 5MP camera. I checked it out at a local store yesterday and was quite disappointed. While there is 5MP of data, the lens lets it down, especially at full zoom. For anybody who was sold on the 5MP feature make sure you check out the photo quality on a PC monitor before you make a call. So far as I'm concerned, it's a thumbs down.

the n95 is ok but think its to pact with gizmo and gadgets to make nokia care if it works or not. the gps dont work very well the phone does freeze or just go blank and u dont have a control and delete button this phone as u do on computers. it was a big upcoming phone but now it is here its just getting dissed i have had many back that i sold as it freezes or just dies and dont turn on but it was worth a shot to relese something with gps 5 mp and everything else it has but i say 1 step at a time and i stick to my sony's for now...

len,

how about a htc p3300 also known as xda orbit,mda compact 3.

they are quite good,and would cover most of those requests.

It seems we have a lot of experts here, or maybe just kids who do not know better. But for those that have some savy here is a question? I need a good phone, in my opinion a phone woith good extras would need the following: Able to synchonise with outlook tasks and apointments, have a reasonable camera, have a built in GPS (Realy Handy for the man on the move), a reasonable voice recorder for meetings and most importantly be able to use as a phone.
Any sensible person out there with ideas?
Thanks

Thank you

yups. i'm quite surpise with n95 after using it.
i own n70, n73, n80 and n91 before. they hang sometimes or lag.
but the new n95. is much faster. wont have the laggy thing as like those in Nseries. only thing is, the video! red LED, for?
i hope there is a software upgrade for there or something -_-
