B... moreDo not buy the nokia n96 it is a terrible phone i was esursed that this was the best phone on the market i was tossing up between the nokia and the blackberry storm. The battery is terrible dosnt last long at all, i would have been better buying a cheaper phone and getting an ipod. The phone freezes a lot the lights seem to have a mind of there own and cut of when they want. As dose the phone that always switches of when ever it wants to.

Lots of useful features and great camera, however there seems to be an issue with the auto rotate screen facility. My phone has been back twice to correct this problem which slows the phone down and completely freezes on occasions. The shop tells me that quite a few of these phones have been sent back for the same problem. The TV feature also does not work in the UK. That saying, overall, when working, the phone is quite good.

Recently my friend told me,
Buy it and you'll charge 3x a day
for the rest of your N96 life.
You will eventually get tired of
bringing your phone or even using
it.
How can you efficient use all
that vast memory if you can't
even use the half of it due
to battery life?
Think about it you have so
many programs and features
but you're always thinking
about its battery. You will
NEVER stop worrying of its
battery life.
Better buy N85 w/c is better than this.
I have the N82. Best 5MP phone!
Still wondering about X2.

You must try to hard reset.. write *#7370# then press to green button. password of your phone is 12345.. Good luck.. This changes only phone memory not sim card and memory card.

karim, 21 Jan 2009i wish to buy this mob,,but many countries have a problem with mms& wap setting,they r not working !You may need to set up your account with your carrier to allow MMS and TXT to some or all overseas destinations.
If you bought your phone without configurations for your network you may also need to get them set.

Gsmarena was lying when they say that 5800 has better sound quality than all Nokia phones. I've tried 5800 in a phone store. Played with it for about 15 minutes. Tried the music player. It has great sound quality but obviously not better than N91. N91 has still better sound quality than 5800 and N96.

i hav been working wth mobile phones for over 7yrs and believe me this is the most amazing phone i have come across. Superb features in a small package. For those people who diss this phone havnt got a clue what they talking about. Its how you use the phone and what you use the phone for that realy matters. I use my phone for talk/text/video calling/music/video/gaming/internet//syncronisation/intense applications/ email/gps/photos/ its my little companion,it does everythng i need it to do,and for those who cry about battery get a firmware upgrade,it should improve by 35-40%.it should also increase response time. I would only recommend this if your gonna make most use of the features,if not go and buy a 6500 slide.evry phone manufacturer has its unique selling point therefore a targeted market, eg samsung=fashion phones that look sleek and glossy,poor battery life,boring user interface,poor audio=target market is girls,gays.students,chavs nokia mainly targets its proffesional working class market, business men,corporates,pensioners,students/music lovers sony ericcson similar story, Lg motorola,sagem iphone out the picture

The N96 is in my opinion the best phone ever made. I have had it for a over a year. I love the design and features. I have droped this phone at least 30 times and let me tell you it can take wear and tear.

Like i said iv got 9gb of data on myn and its as if its empty. Im a very heavy user and the device handles it ok. Im sure the next firmware wil solve a few glitches yet im quite happy with the device. Only dislike the build quality and bettery life. Thats it!

the phone is really well built with good features..but it starts slowing down ab it after a certain amount of storage space is used...which i find is typicalb of nokias.i did some research and apparently it uses the same battery asthe n95black but a slower processor.i hated it its a frusrtating phone 2 use..so i gave it 2 my nephew and got myself the google g1..that is the best phone out guarsanteed(ill leave my thoughts and comments there)
