Nokia N95 review: Nokia’s crown jewel - read the full textThis is the our detailed test of Nokia N95, the best equipped phone on today’s mobile market. Nokia N95 is among first mobiles to have a built-in camera with a 5 megapixel resolution. Among its lures are also an integrated GPS module, HSDPA support, two-way sliding construction, and a very handy 3.5 mm jack connector for earphones.

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

i hear this phone grinds like jupiters feet across the desert, not to mention it looks like a bit of a brick....the gps doesnt find anything other than the floor as you throw the useless thing at it....all in all i wouldnt even use this thing as a door stop
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 -_-

In regards to Lisa, congratulations, yes the N-series has had a lot of problems but the N-95 is nokia's flag ship phone, its their creme de la creme, and if they had ballsed it up, it would repel a quarter of their sales base due to their rep crashing into the ground like a tonne of bricks.
Im impressed that you put aside all the rumours and faults and took it anyway, its exactly what i had to do, i work in carphone, and i hated the N-series for all the complaints they made me deal with, but when the N-95 came out i realised that nokia wont have ruined it due to so much riding on it.
So far I have no complaints, the video quality is top rate, the screen resolution is beautiful, and so far the symbian software hasnt crashed/frozen/slow mo'd once. the gps isnt as good as a tomtom but then its a phone, what do u want?? its gr8 for general driving and hiking tho.
Iv always been a sony ericsson man, iv owned everything from the k500i to the w950i and all inbetween, but i think the n-series has taken the podium from now on, nokia have produced the most functional handset on the market, now thats a come back.

i work at optus an every customer wants to no about the N95, who cares about the SE K800, im a ericson user but the N95 includes GPS, 5 mega pix and many more killer functions. how in the world is the K800 even matched up to it.. soon ericson will try match up to the nokia standards. but personaly i like the walkman phones, saves buyin a ipod ye!..

wow! a lot of cry babies in here lol...all in all this is a great device and I am very pleased with this phone. However, unlike other people out there I dont have high expectations with its features.
If you want full function GPS? go get yourself a real GPS device, you want good quality pictures? go get a 10MP camera... I could go on forever, so stop with the whinning its just a phone to make phone calls, and with great features.

Had this phone just under a week now, and i honestly think its amazing! you wont believe the video quality until you have seen in, really is amazing, cant fault the camera at all, brilliant fone. if you think its going to be too big for your pocket etc.. stop worrying that was one thing i thought about but its just fine! 10/10 without doubt, nothing even comes close.. yet!!!

Hmm. I'm a Motorola user, but this phone made me a Nokia now. Well changing subject huh, Why you SE fans dont go to your SE site and annoy your own ppl there, I just say 'cause Im just readin K800 here and there and walkman there and here, ppl if you wanna hear music buy a Ipod(or any mp3 player), if you want a great flash buy a digit camera, and wtf Its true the batt is bad but cmon is just a little piece of plastic with other stuff in it and the tasks this phone makes are a lot, even a laptop(well just like an xample pcs are far better than a phone) its batt last like 3 hours max that if your laptop auto low the contrast and you aint listening to music. And is good to hear differents opinions but from N95 owners not SE owners. Peace
PD:Im not a N95 owner, yet.(But I like the phone is good)
