Top smartphones: Nokia N95
Nokia's N-Series handsets pack a ton of audio and video capabilities, microSD expandable storage (save the N91 with its 4/8 GB hard drive), and high-res displays. The N95, N91, and N76 also feature standard 3.5mm headphone jacks so you can listen through your favorite 'phones. Just beware of issues with excessive hiss that plague certain models.
I have a tip that is great for people with smart phones that are either only edge capable or on an edge only network. Using Opera Mini browser on my Nokia E71 and N95 on T-mobiles network I can browse the web faster than using AT&T or Sprints 3G networks, I've tested it. The pages load about 3 seconds faster than on the 3G networks. I have found that this is not well known among T-mobile users that I know. A few weeks ago I reported on increased talk about Nokia's N95 - that do it all 5MP Camera, GPS & WiFi uberphone - making its way to AT&T here in the US before too long. That was just the latest in a chain of related rumors dating back to last summer, but it did seem to have some legs. Well, chalk another one up for those legs (or for an unfortunate error on AT&T or Google's part).
I Googled "Nokia N95" while... Does anyone even remember that AT&T actually carries a Nokia N-Series phone, the oversized, underpowered, crippled by its US carrier N75? Let's hope that if the current rumor about another N-Series device coming to AT&T bears fruit, the response from consumers is a bit less tepid this time around – last time I checked customers had given the N75 just under 3 out of 5 stars on ATT's website.
Of course if the N95 does make its... The rumor mill is heating up just a bit in preparation for next week's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, and this latest rumor is a doozy. Samsung is said to be readying their G810 for release next week, and this $850+ sliderphone may well feature everything this side of your kitchen sink when it makes its debut.
Unwired View lists the G810 as featuring a 5mp camera with 3x optical zoom and anti-shake and face recognition... Call it the eye of the storm: CES teased us earlier this month with a few new handsets from Sony Ericsson and Motorola (not to mention the official debut of Nokia's N95 8GB US model), and all sorts of sexy new phones should be unveiled at next month's World Mobility Congress (aka 3GSM) in Barcelona. And then there's CTIA Las Vegas, which kicks off on the last day of March.
This break in the action seems like a good time for some... Although not officially associated with any carrier just yet, Nokia’s flagship smartphone the N95 8GB is currently available through Nokiausa.com. The phone will be shipped unlocked and is compatible with all of the major GSM carries (T-Mobile, AT&T and so on).
Now for the bad news - you are going to have to shell out $779 + SH to get your hands on one (can you say new laptop anyone). That seems a little steep especially with its, dare I...

Are you serious?? iPhone won't be successful? It already is successful and will continue to be so for the foreseable future.How long do you think it will take Apple to out sell the N95 oh I'm sorry it already has- Doh!
Hi,
Nokia N95 is much better because it has everything such as a good camera, music player, video player, phone, messaging, video calling, and much more. Touch screen doesn't matter when you have lot of other things. According to me Apple should just make computers and iPod, iPhone won't be successful. Hope this will help you.
Enjoy! Hi guys,
I am new here and going to buy one of them so I wanted to
know your opinions. Please drop me your beliefs that can I determine to buy one
of them.
Illuminate me please!
The 8GB version is now available for .....wait for it..........$794.00
That is soo crazy - once a carrier picks it up we should a significant price drop.
I can't see it staying that expensive for long especially with all new iphone esque phones coming out. Yeah I agree it looks way better than the silver US version, but it is still way too expensive!
I would rather buy a new $700 laptop than a glorified mp3 player.
IMO [:S] Did anybody see the new N95 8GB today! It has everything - 3g HPSDA, GPS, Wifi and so on.Now the only thing left is to install the Iphone interface to complete the UI.
Check out this video of a multitouch interface uploaded on the N95 -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRXXxf053do
Does anyone know which version of the N95 will be available in the US?
I can't wait to get my hands on this phone..
It blows away the first gen iPhone in features and functionality. 3G - Wifi - GPS - Push Email and so on..
I could care less about a touch screen that is always going to get dirty everytime I use the phone.
If Verizon doesn't come out with a phone to compete with the N95 I will have to switch to AT&T.. [:(] |
