Hi all,
Some people here are talking absolute rubbish and just sniping because it doesn't have an SE badge. I have and use a N93 as my main phone it is not slow in any respect and kills the M600 for speed stone dead IMO. The battery is 1100aMh and depending on just how heavy my usage is in any 24hrs means i may have to charge each night with light use it can last 2-3 days comfortably. My usage involves Diary entry, E-mail send and receive, Web Browsing over both 3G and WiFi, watching a film or video and Photo Album plus of course voice calls.
Re touch screens i thought this was something i couldn't live without, i have now discovered that this is not so as web browsing and even data entry can be achieved as quickly if not quicker than with a touchscreen. Web browsing is easier and better on my non touchscreen N93 navigation with the D pad and mouse cursor is far better than a touchscreen IMO and also has better viewing in all conditions. Also not just my opinion but that of Steve Litchfield @ All about Symbian has an excellent article on just how bad touchscreens are in anything but ideal lighting conditions. So who ever said non touch screen phones are useless what rubbish.
As nice and advanced as the N95 looks it will not be my next phone the couple of extra Megapixels is no big deal to me. The built in GPS and mapping whilst nice is also unnecessary IMO as i use a Holox bluetooth GPS and Tom Tom 6 and as i only use Sat Nav in the car power is not an issue thanks to a cigarette adapter for the phone. I just am not a fan of slider phones and prefer the keyboard on the N93 (Personal choice). At the end of the day we all pick our phones for personal reasons otherwise if we all wanted and had the same phones how boring would that be? But just now the contest between UIQ3 and S60 3rd Edition well there just is no contest and the winner is not UIQ IMO.
Marc

Lets not turn this discussion into a nokia versus SE topic. Every phone has pros and cons and depending on individual's taste and preference. One man's meat another man's poison.
Lets just hope that the N95 comes out soon and comes out less buggy as compared to P990i.
The other aspects of a successful smartphone (or even a PDA) depends very much on third party software that comes out for it. Lest share the real issues instead of bickering for Nokia or for SE. |

Hi bytes
I agree with what you say but some seem unable to hear a bad word said against there beloved SE and will slate anything that isn't SE. As far as apps are concerned who knows as the N95 uses S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1 Symbian 9.3 and only time will tell if Symbian 9.1 S60 3rd Edition apps will work on it but i would hope so. As to hoping this will ship with less buggy firmware than the P990 i would think so as IMO it would be pretty hard to to be anywhere near as bad.

Hi Marc, I am a SE fan too but we must be matured enough to accept not all SE phones are at their best, which the P990i sorely proof tis point. We just have to ignore those "fanatics" (but not fans like me pls) be them nokia or SE.
Coming back to the topic of this discussion, the Nokia N95 yes!
The video preview of N95 (need some buffering) shows the phone display thru a big LCD TV and it certainly looks more stable.
Saw another forum said that O2 release for N95 slated for Feb 7, 2007

For a 5mp camera it should at least have a decent flash. Looks like a great phone though and one I'm certainly going to consider buying! |

There's an early review here: http://soaileek.net/nokialist/2006/11/18/n95r1/
But I've just realised that the screen looks as though it has no cover/protection like the 6131. Bad

Apparently that is Nokia's idea on how to increase outdoor visibility. What's bad for you it does suit me. I fly as a hobby :D
