It is a thing of beauty! I am super excited and cant wait to caress it! I hope the standyby is better but I will be happy none the less... Good show Nokia, and I am not usually a fan... I prefer LG, but hey this baby rocks my face off!

In case you guys haven't heard from the front pages of GSMArena, there are already some phone stores offering it on pre-order. I haven't looked into whether all this is real but they all seem to be coming from UK. It's priced at about $USD1200 and the earliest date for preorder release is 31st July.
If anyone wants to research, just go to google and type in N96 Preorder.

The_Nootz, 02 Jun 2008You are right. Nokia should have considered placing a xenon flash into this phone, which I tot... moreWell, you may be right. But, reversly speaking, let's assume that LG will expand the Secret's volume to that of the N96, don't you see they have the technology needed, and are able to stuff all the latter's extras while keeping thier own? immagine what LG can do with this extra 40 cc, they just need to fit a bigger battery to accomodate the upgrades. What do you say?

Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970It's not even released yet so there is no price, you might wanna read the specifications page before you ask that question because no one can answer you yet.

Nokia ... if only you GPS your 5mpx phones without taking a backward step on battery stanby. Nokia 'all in one 5mpx' ie N95,N96&N82 please please stop dishing out poor stanby phones. Its like driving car that with a coke can for a fuel tank. So if there any engineers from Nokia Reading this, fix the stanby problem on 5mpx GPS phones. It is possible to extend the stanby on the battery through better design ie thin the phone out and make most of the back end the battery ... take the Nokia 6210 as a design example (that old phone would last 5-7 days with use)

Damn, just when will Nokia release this phone?!
i cannot wait anymore..
the rumor started back at the beginning of the year, and it has been almost half year and there's still no sign of coming out..
yes i know the news said sometime in August or end of July, but does that mean worldwidely or just some advanced countries?
there is also NO more new news of this phone on the net! i open the site gsmarena like 3x a day! hoping to see some news of N96!

Spotted Viper, 02 Jun 2008...... and if you think I'm way too optimistic, I just remind you that the N96 is about 102 cc... moreYou are right. Nokia should have considered placing a xenon flash into this phone, which I totally agree. But they did and they tried to provide more light in both photos and videos. Photography should (at least to me) be granted priority over video. This phone brings almost nothing over N95 in terms of video capabilities.
Now speaking of the feature-to-volume ratio, I don't quite agree with the comparison between the LG Secret and this. N96 may be bulky, and to be honest, it is a bit, but its volume is distributed to the processors and other stuff that the Secret doesn't have. The 5 mpx sensor is not that big. But perhaps you know that this device has many more features that the LG Secret doesn't have. Now I'm not saying the LG is a bad phone, because it isn't. It's not as all-in-one as this one, but feature-to-size comparison isn't fair.
And then again, it is a matter of choice.

The_Nootz, 02 Jun 2008To endlessz and Spotted Viper, Nokia N96 has all the recording power of LG Viewty. VGA 30 f... more...... and if you think I'm way too optimistic, I just remind you that the N96 is about 102 cc in volume, almost twice the Secret (60 cc). Now this tells alot: you should be wise in distributing features over volume. so Nokia, either stuff-it-all, or chop-off some fat. If you manage this, I'll convert at once. I think this's fair enough, isn't it!
