N96's battery life is very poor. You'll get upset because you have to charge it almost everyday especially if you're a "hard core user". This phone is definitely a "battery eater" because of its wide high resolution screen, high definition camera and of course, video capabilities. i love to call this phone, "our electricity vampire"

About the n85 sound, i doubt that review was valid. Or maybe that phone got away with not having the firmware restrictions on sound.

Does windows recognize as storage device when pluged in usb without PCSuite or other software instaled. Or do i need to install PCSuite software to access n96's memory?
i will appreciate memory access without need of instaling software.
Same question for n95 8gb.
thnx

iolo003, 28 Oct 2008ive read a review by a very respectable mobilephone expert,... morehow come? there are already owners of n85 and they have common opinion that n85 produces just average sound quality. if n85 has better sound quality than innov8, then it means n85 has better sound quality than n91 since innov8 has better sound quality than n91. that review from p@sco is not reliable. there has been a couple of reviews ive read stating that n85 has average sound quality only. and its hard to believe that n85 which has no dedicated audio chip will sound better than n96 and innov8 which are equipped with a dedicated audio processor.

This phone is real tacky in real life, i love my 95 8 gig, but would not be up-grading it to one of these, i'd be looking at a Sony 905 or a Samsung i8510 INNOV8, hey just my opinion..try one for yourself..

Bakekang, 27 Oct 2008Pls dont recommend N85 as a music phone because its sound q... moreI dont see the need to run for an 8mp cameraphone. 5mp and even 3.2mp cameraphones produce really great photos. Plus the photos are much bigger than the resolution settings of a laptop. More megapixels isnt a necessity.
Yes, nokia plans to unveil an 8mp cameraphone soon which has some nice suprises under the hood, but i stil dont believe its worth an upgrade if u have n95/n95 8gb, n82, n79, etc.
About the camera and music, i dont think there is any phone at the moment that can handle both of these perfectly. N96 and innov8 are way too pricey and have battery life issues. N85 has a decent camera and decent sound, but is not the best out there. Same thing with the 5800xm. Good camera, but not the best. Good sound but not the loudest either.
If you must have a good camera and music, get n85 or 5800xm. Just dont expect too much from them.
However, i suggest getting a cameraphone with a good battery life like n95 8gb, n82, n79 etc and get the nokia bh 604 bluetooth headset. They sound the same on any phone and deliver sound better than any mobile phone can currently offer.

N96 has 20x zoom (N85 doesn't)
N96 has DVB-H (N85 d... morehire is an opinion
I don't use digital zoom it ruins the picture
I don't watch TV not on a 2,8 for sure
Flip-out kickstand but no lens cover DUDE WTF
N96 has better 3D Stereo speakers TRUE
16 gb that is a big plus I agree
BUT WTF TFT BETTER THAN OLED GO THAKE YOUR PILS FOR THIS statement
IF YOU LIKE IT IT'S NOT THE BEST
oled consume less power than tft so the plus for the battery goes fon n85
diseign also
by the way I used n96 for a week it's quality don't match the price period
no hard feelings but keep it real
