    awsome person, 10 Oct 2008ugh i am reeaally getting sick of people who have not even ... moreit is far away from bad. indeed if you use wireless for 2 hours the battery drops down, just like every windows pda, just like every smartphone.
    Just making calls and check mail a few times a day, battery last two days.

        Mojtaba Golestani, 09 Oct 2008i think if i buy this phone ! nokia will relase a new phone... morehey dude, if that is your kind of thinking...you are not going to get a new one anymore...even in your next life here on earth. coz...lets say u won't buy this n96 coz maybe a month or three there will be a new model release...then let us say that after a month or three, the new model released...then your thinking will be again...maybe for the next month or so..there will be a new one...then...when u grow old u will realize..."oh, i didnt buy any single cell that i want coz of my "monkey gorilla thinking"

          if i really want more battery power i either charge it or get me a solar charger which is probably a lot cheaper than getting an extra battery, as for typing/text who needs it when i can call people or send them voice mail. The touchscreen qwerty keyboard i would only use it for the web but thats only if i dont use voice command, voice text, or Logitech diNovo Mini Wireless 1 Bluetooth Keyboard http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1f8F9ItuTkY 2 iGo Stowaway Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Keyboard

            N96 is a good mobile, do not follow some below critics of people who seems to earn almost every mobile. I use it almost one week, slowly have all needed configured as I want and it is not bad at all.

                well after playing with a friends mobile for a while, I really need to disagree with some people here.
                Battery last easily 2 days, phone is not slow,perfect functions in it, the gps is VERY fast compared to my windows mobile

                  n96 specializes on mobile tv and video. yes, it is an all-in-one device and it can do anything that other nseries do but not as good. it's camera is no better than n95. it's sound quality is good but not as good as n91 or n81. it plays ngage games but it lacks a 3d graphics accelerator which is present in n95. tv & video playback is where n96 is specialized on.

                          tom garcia, 08 Oct 2008hey dude, with 10 as the highest...how can u rate your n96 phone?I got this phone a week ago and was back at the shop the following day having a real moan. What was wrong? More a case of what wasn't wrong. But I have persevered. And slowly (very slowly) I am warming to it. The dreaded battery life problem hasn't materialised - I just make sure I close all applications immediately I have finished. The camera quality is acceptable (if I am taking any important pics I will use a camera. And if want to send em via mms the phone will shrink the file anyway so it's not that important). Dvb -h ? Well if its going to be anything like the bbc i-player I can live without it (over an hour to watch a half hour programme. Loads of buffering). Video quality is superb(if you put change the setting to the highest). My only complaint really is reception. I can have my n73 and n95 open next to the n 96 and the 96 will not connect to the internet whereas the others do. And when it will connect it takes up to three minutes to download a 2mb file. Shoe reception is poor too. Cheap and plastic? Definitely not cheap but plastic yes. Not poor quality but glossy. Very samsung-ish. Bling ! ! This is an honest opinion from a guy who HAS got the phone.
                          Oh the 'breathing' light -why ?

                            Nope, not all that says negative comment about this phone can't afford to buy one. Even this site's review says number of negative comments of this phone as being outdated. We like to spend our hard earned money to something that will feel an upgrade for us. Like me, many people will read and base their purchase on reviews. Being that so expensive (top of the line Nseries?, most of us didn't get the reason why Nokia degraded the battery, camera performance and cpu and just upgraded the memory and added mobile tv (not that useful) to existing 5meg Nokias. And oh, the design is oh, oh, oh my. Nokia, next please.

                              OMG.

                              I just read the reviews of the 96 on gsmarena & cnet, and what a spray, they gave it a shalacking.

                              I don't think it will recover.

                              And, really, the 96 is sooo ugly, even I would look good next to it!

                              Is NOKIA in damage control?

                                .

                                WTF?

                                I've been all cashed up for this baby and NOKIA give it 128MB RAM & a 264 MHz CPU.

                                I can't believe it.

                                Sorry, then, the Xperia X1 it is.

                                  Does this charge when you plug it into a USB port?

                                  I plug my iPhone into my laptop to charge it so only have to use one charger in my car.
