prince, 11 Jun 2008Ok. Is the flash of the camera xenon or LED. Please get thi... moreI cannot tell you which is better but personally, i think i'm not ready to move to touch screen yet. Button phones work fine for me. It might also come to style too... the Omnia looks more like a girl's phone.

Oh and I was sick of Samsungs. My past 3phones have been samsungs and i've been hearing good things about the Nokias so i'm going to give them a go. My last phone was a U700, apart from the excellent camera, the rest of the phone was a huge disappointment.

    carloud, 11 Jun 2008hehehe sir dani software were never a problem for the n95 ... morecarloud, it actually does feature a naviwheel. www.mobile-review.com reviewed the prototype and they claim that it has a naviwheel.

    As for the xenon flash. I've never used the Xenon flash before but i have seen some photo comparisons of xenon and LED flash. Nokia says that the dual LEDs in the N96 is supposed to be better for the phone's battery.

      hehehe
      sir dani software were never a problem for the n95 even on pre-20 firmware

      and ram werent a problem for firmware 20 and above for n95


      but I must say n96, as the new flagship...is quite powerful indeed and is a mix of n95,n82,n81 though compared to an n95 it only has dvb-h and compared to an n82 the dual leds still can't beat xenon and if Im not mistaken it doesnt have a navi wheel as n81


      hmm

          Returning to my previous statements about the junk posted on the internet.

          I found this video by mistake on YouTube. It's called "The newest Nokia mobiles". Here we have some people with lots of imagination and a little bit of talent showing with their "creations" to the world, and they did manage to impress a lot of people (= make them fall for it), some of which on this forum.

          And now, the stars of the show: Nokia N96 (totally "different" from this one, which tells us that this video was made quite a while ago), Nokia N97, the super-duper Nokia N98 with 7.2 megapixels or whatever, Nokia N99 (with a ridiculous 9-way navigation key), and... what do you know, Nokia N100!!!

          No more comments. If you have any, they are welcome.

            It's really nice set. It is better than N95.

                Ok. Is the flash of the camera xenon or LED. Please get this cleared for me. Thank u. Another question is, which is a better phone? N96 or Omnia. I'm very confused on which to buy. Both r powerful devices. Only difference is tt Omnia does not have DVB-H, is windows mobile n touchscreen. HELP! The suspense is KILLING ME!

                  Really.

                  This phone is gonna be so overpriced you can tell. It's not that much better than the N95, but I bet half the N95 owners will be trading it in.

                  Looks like the N81 and the N95 had a baby, and this is it's giant offspring.

                  They could have made it look different

                    hi im from the US and have a question about the 3g bands on this phone

                    tmobile just rolled out their 3g network here and their 3g band requirements are 1700/2100

                    seeing this phone has the 2100 band would it work with tmobile 3g in the US?

                    please answer my question
                    thank you

                      Were is Nokia let me tell you, this is how they make Money!

                      they first Released N95-1
                      becuase it had some bad problems
                      1. Bad Battery Life
                      2. Software and Ram were a problem
                      3. Slider problems

                      then they relased N95 8GB:
                      fixed those 2 Problems of N95-1
                      then they made 2 more Problems and drawbacks:
                      Lack of Lens Cover
                      Only 8GB Memory
                      No Xenon Flash
                      Bad Slider

                      then they released the N82:
                      Fixed most of the problems this time.but left more drawbacks:
                      Weird Keypad
                      Smaller Display 2.4 inch1

                      but added Xenon Flash...

                      now N96
                      2 improvements over N95 8GB:
                      16GB + microSD Slot
                      DVB-TV

                      now Nokia has more 5MP Phones coming!!

                                Do you have this phone? Have you used it's prototype? I'm guessing you havent so i wouldn't take a hammer to it yet. www.mobile-review.com has done a video review of the prototype and there's no noticible lag whatsoever.

                                It runs on a new Symbian S60 software so the hardware is NOT the same. You should do your research before making claims.

                                    Anonymous, 10 Jun 2008now go and compete with Samsung i900 Omnia and SE Xperia X1I'm sorry but those seem to be touch phones. Unless you can show me a button based Samsung or SE phone that can outperform/out-feature this Nokia consider your option worthless here.
