This handset offers a lot more and 5 mega pixel camera is still of great quality. Who really needs anything better than 5mp?

I've been waiting for this phone for a long time now!!!! Since the time of its announcement last February but until now that apple have released i phone 3g a month ago, nokia n96 is still due for release i have decided not to buy it anymore. i think samsung i850 is better than n96. Nokia should not let people wait for along time coz its a bad marketing strategy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I honestly do not know why Nokia decided to exclude optical zoom and infrared red (ir). My best guess regarding optical zoom would be overall pricing for the consumer and possible profit loss for Nokia.
Marketing is very complex. It's not as simple as add feature, introduce device into consumer market, like most believe. When considering possible features of a device, two main factors are considered, production cost and returned revenue. Optical zoom requires additional moving mechanical parts, which requires extended labor, which results in an increase in production cost. Given the stated facts, obviously the cost for consumers will be high. Now if the device fails to overturn production costs for whatever reason (cost, lack of popularity, defects, etc), Nokia quarterly profits will drop. No company wants that. Thus why certain features are omitted. I'm sure many other unmentioned factors, strategies, and plans goes into finally deciding what goes into the final product.
As for infrared red, bluetooth is replacing the usage of ir. Bluetooth excels infrared red in almost, if not in all fields. Now with more upcoming advancements in bluetooth, ir seems pointless.

I disagree with it being an improved version of the Nokia N96 though. Personally, I feel the next "big thing" will be presented within the upcoming 5th Edition Touch devices, and I'm not referring to Nokia's Tube either. Nokia representatives stated, the Tube will be introduced as a mid range device, and the high ends to follow thereafter.
As for the upcoming Samsung i8510 INNOV8, that device offers nothing more than a increased 3 megapixel capacity over the Nokia N96 and/or the Nokia N95. Personally, it's funny how mobile companies are still trying to outclass the almost 2 year old Nokia N95.

Kenzo, 11 Aug 2008Lol no dude ....im nt .....i use it.....i didnt even knw that....... ill wayt 4 the N96.... ... moreNot directly. Nokia do incorporate services from the corporation I'm employed at though. Unfortunately, company rules strictly forbid specific disclosures about who and what we do, if that was your following question.

Just seen on www.jassp.net that theres a site offering the N96 for 699 euros/£549 an no way i am going to pay that for the N96,whats Nokia thinking about as my Black 8gb N95 is more better mobile,the price of this mobile better drop down quickly or more people will sign up for the Samsung I8510 an leave the N96,as soon as the N96 will be made available Nokia will do its old trick an announce its 8 mega-pixel camera mobile an really annoy those who bought the N96,you always have to watch out with Nokia as my last 2 mobiles i got the N73 an the N95 what did Nokia do there usual trick release a improve version of both mobiles a month after thats why i was worried about signing up to early for the N96 an they might follow there trend Nokia release the N96i a better version but this time they have got to release a good 8 mega-pixel camera mobile to stop Samsung out selling them,will try out the Samsung mobile out for 14 days an decide is it going to live up to it good reviews
