Nokia N96 - user opinions and reviews

And to settle a little misunderstanding, Nokia phones made in China are not fake. Fake ones have really funny names like Mykio or Nokra something like that. They don't even have an imei number and no warranties, and it will be really really cheap. Even the feel of such phones are cheap. Believe me I'm from around Asia and I've seen pretty remarkable fake phones that look amazingly similar to the real ones. Nokia has manufacturing places in every corner of the world and its main base or place is in Finland, land of Kimi Raikkonen (hehe sorry, I'm a big Fan hehe). Nokia phones available in most places of Asia are all from China, places in Europe will probably recieve from Finland, land of the Iceman and the U.S probably from some place there as well. So, Nokia phones which says 'Made in China' with the location and address of the factory, and if it has warranty and an imei number, it ain't fake and its about damn the same as those from Finland. (Do you think Kimi Raikkonen has one? He has the N95...hehe just wondering)

Okay...seriously, you people have to stop making the N96 look like a piece of rubbish. Its not. I owned one right now and I love it. Sure there are problems but some of the problems posted sounds fake and made-up. Are you sure you people bought the real phone or a fake one?? Or doesn't even own one in some cases as it sounds. Nokia would never make a phone with that much problem less you bought a rammed secondhand or a defected one. The N96 is a good phone. Those who have a problem with it just get rid of it and by something else lower because it seems like you can't handle a high-end 'super' phone.

I've had the N96 for about 1 week now.
It is the most crap Nokia I've owned in the past 10 or so years.
The first N96 I returned to the store because the camera button broke within minutes of using it.
The second one suffers many issues:
- Frozen twice (re boot required)
- Volume control (up direction) about to give way. There is a serious build quality problem with this phone.
- Very slow to change screen direction (auto sensor)
- Slow generally to do operations. Not as bad as the E65, but slow.
- Cell info display doesn't work, no matter what I try to do.
- I keep getting "one alarm missed" even though no alarm has been set.
- For no reason a missed call icon appears, but no missed calls in the phone.
BUT, worst of all, the ring volume is stuck on low. Even though in the settings for the profile it has been set to the highest volume, and rings at that volume when making the setting.
Maybe I've just had bad luck, but I hate the phone!
Going to return it on Monday and try a difference model.
Nokia is usually so good at putting out a decent product.
Better luck with your phones.

Tiger, 18 Oct 2008no offense, folks, but he who hates this phone does NOT have it! It is a real upgrade from N95... moreok? is that all that you can say for a 700 euro phone, just ok? i'm expecting something more than just ok... n96 is not an upgrade from n95 8gb! where is the upgrade here? the 16gb and dvb-h? or the slow processor with no 3d graphics chip. it's not an upgrade. it is just an alternative. for n95 8gb users, buying n96 is completely a waste of money! i have the money but i will definitely not buy this phone! i'll save my money for the 8mp n98 or s60 touchscreen n97. now, that's what i call an upgrade! n96 is a mistake! if they had released it a year ago, it would've been worth it.

no offense, folks, but he who hates this phone does NOT have it! It is a real upgrade from N95 8GB, the consumption has been optimised, that is, even if the battery has 950 Mah, with 3G disabled it can easily last for 3 days under normal usage. Signal strength is ok, camera is fine, music ok etc. So, really...Get a life!!! If you do not have this phone, do not speak badly about something you do not know. Nokia is and will always be number 1!!!

Isn't it funny. Those who either coughed out the money for the phone or made the effort to go phone etc, will always say, it's the best phone ever :) N96 is a remarkable phone, no doubt. But what is the 'best phone in the world' to you may not be the 'best phone in the world to me'. Wanna have some fun, go round the site looking at others comments on all other phones. You gonna see, omnia, best phone in the world, iphone, best phone in the world lol. . . Peace out
