    Hi, I am NOKIA lover..recently I have Nokia E90, N95 8GB, and N96 16 GB. All are the best and user friendly..but bit dissapointed with N96 16 GB, compares with N95 8GB battery life is poor, and slow transition when u open a few application, camera is pooor..I think N95 8GB is better than N96 16GB

                This thing drags sooooo slowly it's unreal. There is also a fault on them already in that they won't ring. Seems a lot of the buzzers are faulty on them. It also feels very cheap when you put it alongside the N95.

                      From mobileburn.com :

                      While we are just now receiving our N96 review units, at this moment it is hard to imagine how the Nokia N96 is going to top what Samsung has done with the i8510 INNOV8. Samsung has put together a very solidly built, feature rich, and darn fun to use smartphone. The i8510 is the best performing and most feature rich camera phone we have ever used, there is enough internal storage on hand for thousands and thousands of music tracks, and Samsung's optical mouse adds a lot of wow factor to the already fantastic S60 web browser.

                      We reslly don't have anything even remotely negative to say about the i8510 INNOV8. "Highly Recommended", plain and simple. If you are considering an N95 or N96, you would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't check out this gem first.

                            10cc, 13 Oct 2008the real questions for me is if this movie is truth?! th... moreI dont play games with mobiles. Anway dont believe what ever you see. Some people need to accept the fact that their phone (N95) is old. Dont forget the 2.8" Screen - 16GB - Dual Flash. New Mobile always better than old ones.

                                Got my N96 for 2 weeks. The phone are not lousy as the forumer said. the Battery can last for 2 days. Every function are great, not lag in menu and others too. GPS is very fast. nothing to complaint for a great phone.

                                  This phone is rubbish, tiny screen, can't read webpages easily, it's sooo hard to use, what a stupid menu system.

                                  I'm going back to my iPhone.

                                      Stop whinging about battery life - all the new phones have poor battery life. The trade-off for size in all mobile phones is poor battery life - Just charge it every night or by yourself a car charger - wait it comes with one = problem solved! As for the phone, i got mine a week ago and it works great. Speakers and media players are definately an improvement as well as the dual LED flash and the video recording. I also like the flat panel design. Overall it does everything a phone should do and it does it very very well. If you have an N95i it is not worth upgrading to this, but if you don't have an N95i and want the top of the range model get an N96 - i got mine and managed to squeeze optus in Aust. for $0 on a $49 cap!
