    Kenzo, are you regretting now of buying the N96? The N85 isn't that great either. The build quality is better than N96 but not stellar. I think the best NSeries is N79. The N79 can do everything that N85 and N96 can (except the DVB-H), yet it costs so much cheaper than both phones. N79 does everything the N96 does yet it costs only half of N96's price. Be practical. More expensive doesn't always mean better. Sometimes they can even be worse, especially with the case of N96 - it's very expensive yet it feels cheap. It's just so not worth it.

                Hey all, currently im using N96 for almost 3 months ..

                At first i bought it :
                * The firmware is 10.035
                1. The music player(refresh library) took a long time to refresh all the music..
                2. The auto-rotate not smooth ..
                3. Explore the "standy by" menu seems slow
                4. System working slow

                After I upgraded it to 12.035 :
                1. The music player seems fast specially refresh the music library,but took a bit long when delete some songs even only 1 song ...
                2. The stand by menu & explore the menu seems fast ..
                3. The auto-rotate seems smoother & nice ...
                4. The system working more faster (though not the fastest in nokia n-series) ...

                My opinion :
                1. N96 is all-in-1 gadget you'll need: Music,Camera,GPS,Office,Internet,Entertainment{Games,etc..)
                2. The double-speaker produce clear sound,but not as loud as N81..
                3. The camera-button seems awful at 1st using,but im getting used to it ..
                4. The phone built material is classy,the keypad is nice to use..
                5. The camera quality is pretty good (it produces soft colour than nature colour)
                6. memory in use 1.93 Gb, free 13,0 GB..ive saved 670 photos(but the gallery seems very slow if we saved up to 1000 photos),470 music tracks,more than 20 apps,20 videos..

                Im satisfy with this phone,i think its 1 of nokia best N-series....

                                        right, after having both devices, the innov8 is clearly superior. it's quicker, the battery is better and the camera is absolutely superb
