you should read the n96 review at allaboutsymbian.com. it's battery life managed to last longer than expected. this phone doesn't need a 1200mah battery. because its 950mah battery is equivalent to 1200mah battery already. thanks to its low power consuming processor and power efficient software.

what's the problem with you guys? n96 is not the only phone that has dual processor. even the n95, n95 8gb, n82 & e90 have even more powerful dual processor running at faster clock rate. and even the 3 years old n91 has a dual processor also. you won't multiply twice the speed of the individual processor since they run separately. and for people saying negative about n96's battery life, 950mah battery of n96 will last longer than 1050mah battery of n82. n96's processor consumes very less battery power compared to any other processors. plus the fp2 is very power efficient.

I really like to buy the this phone, but what is stopping me is the price, the negative feedback regarding it's processor and the battery life.

I like what is inside but in order for me to enjoy it the whole day the battery should at least last for 16 hours.

Can any one just post any hands on experience on this phone, it will really help us.

Does it mean that N95 8GB is faster than N96 because N95 8GB has dual arm 11 332 MHz CPU? while N96 got only dual arm 9 264 MHz CPU.
