Anonymous, 15 Nov 2008The thing is cutting back on the performance on the N96 the... moreYes i agree it is ova priced in other countries.....
i think our pricing on contract is resonable...coz the N85 is a little more expensive than the N96....and the N96 costs R8616 on a 24month contract....(R209+R359x24+R8)
they rediced the price as compaired 2 wat nokia was asking 4...4 the N96

Yes the N96 myt crash when loading it with 10GB or more of data but so did The N95-1 when it had 2GB-4GB in it.....
As 4 the i8510 hehehehe people are complaining about its battery life it draines in less than a day and countless other problems...

The N96 just needs a firmware up date thats all then all then most if not all the buggs will be fixed.........
N85 is (R209+R459x24+R8)
ass u can see the N85 is more expensive than N96

    BATMAN , 15 Nov 2008almost every fone dat cums out nowdays people r complainin abt itthe complaints of pipol regarding this so called N96 are just reasonable.
    1.battery life - all recent nokia phones are equipped with large batteries. why is not n96?
    2.super buggy software - n96 took at least 7 months from official announcement to official release and the firmware that comes with this phone is so buggy. what was nokia doing during that long period of time?
    3.no naviwheel - this may not be a deal breaker for some but the n96 prototypes had naviwheel. so why on earth do n96 commercial units not have a naviwheel?
    4.overpriced - this phone is overpriced considering its low quality materials and low build quality, and the very few improvements it has over its predecessor.

          BATMAN, 14 Nov 2008cn d n96 take dat 16gig cardthe is already slow, but it starts to get much slower once you fill its flash drive with 7gb data. if you continue on filling it with more data, it will crash. so even if n96 has 16gb internal memory, you won't be able to fill it with 16gb data because it will crash.

            Kenzo, 14 Nov 2008No its not! The N96 was set 2 be the N95 in the 1st place ... moreThe thing is cutting back on the performance on the N96 then supplying it with 16GB of memory which pretty much stops working once you put more than 9 or 10 GB's on it was not such a good idea.

            So people are paying a premium price for an experimental phone which Nokia push as a "flagship".

              Anonymous, 14 Nov 2008So the N96 is made from recycled junk, yet you pay full new... moreNo its not!
              The N96 was set 2 be the N95 in the 1st place but they ran in2 some issuse with the production so they made the N95 as wee knw it....go2 symbianfreeks.com and u will fynd this article....hence i say the N96 is three years old.....'in concept'
              i8510 has some problems of its own....
              So did the N95 in its tym....wat Nokia is trying 2 do is maximize on hardware effeciency with minimal power usages....at the same tym having many features as possable....then they would hav mastard the art....
              Coz wat the i8510 is now...is wat the N95 was in its tym....yet the N95 was more of an innovation than the i8510.....the i8510 is just pasing the same road the N95 did yet with a beater engine.

                      For a short, fat, wide N96.

                      N85 103 x 50 x 16 mm.

                      Hey it has a navi wheel, similar to the Samsung's Optical trackpad, only got 5 Megapixel camera, smaller screen and slower processor.

                                Nokia N96 103 x 55 x 18 mm

                                As you can see the Samsung is 3.5mm longer.

                                The Nokia is 1.1mm Wider and 0.8 mm thicker.

                                The Nokia would be harder to fit in a pocket.
