@Dogmann- your points are valid. I too thought the merger was good for Ericsson after the fire incident at the Phillips factory cost them the market share, but since then I hate what Sony has done to Ericsson. I wish the latter leaves the former but I doubt it will work for Ericsson NOW. I'm staying with SE now because of Ericsson but my patience is wearing thin. I doubt that I'd go to Nokia though, I just don't feel them, never did. I guess time will tell unless SE makes some dramatic improvement!

I'm still not convinced. Its a loot on one phone and they have not yet proven that they can put it ALL together.
My wife just got an N73 - nice phone, I feel it is better to operate than my M600i except for my keyboard.....but even that one stutters are frizzes screen all the time.
And then they want to add GPS and WI-Fi to the mix? Its very ambitious. But I think they would have do an incredible job of balancing horsepower and battery consumption on this device. Its not a giime by any means.
Anyway I hope the N95 works - if it does I want to get one. But having gone through M600i and then seen folks experience with P990i - I dont think I will be an early buyer this time around. |

I'm pretty sure N95 will be workable. Nokia's been at S60 for a long time. All recent S60 phones (maybe except N80) were stable on release. You should not compare with SE UIQ3 phones as UIQ3 is a newborn OS which will need some time to achieve the stability and peformance of s60. |

@blue - Now, c'mon dude . . . Dogmann was JUST pointing/airing what he KNOWS of the handsets mentioned . . . you were once a NEWBIE as well, and just knows how being treated as such  I, for one is a loyal Nokia fan too . . . am quite disappointed as well everytime  will be releasing new models which majority has this BUGS issue - white/blinking/screen etc. Never experienced this with Nokia . . . still.
You can discuss your misunderstandings with Dogmann - privately (PM) and not humiliate the newcomer in that manner . . . please!
I hope all is settled now . . .

I was just now reading a review of the Fujitsu Loox T830 which is speced similar to N95. In fact it has less resoluton on the screen and only 2MP camera vs 5MP in N95.
Yet Fujitsu put a huge 1550mah battery into that machine - and Nokia is putting 970 or 1100 to power the same? I hope this is isnt going to become another N80 story ie great specs but one day battery life. |

Well,thats a different device,different os,platform and TS(?).Only features are similar..
yes,still most people's concern are about battery life..

I do have a soft spot for SE phones, but I have nothing at all against Nokia phones, infact I actually quite like them. I certainly loved my 6230i and felt quite sad when I upgraded.
I am eagerly anticipating the N95 and I do hope it's a sucess and the battery life is good. I own a k800 and although being a really good phone at times it has disapointed me. The mark of a good phone imo is when you can keep it for a long time without having the desire for another phone. At the moment the K800 isnt doing that for me and I'd love the N80 but the poor battery life people speak of puts me off. |

http://soaileek.net/nokialist/2006/11/18/n95r1/ Here is a link to a N95 preview. Keep in mind this is a sept device - GPS and some other stuff isn't working. I can't help but notice - when Nokia announced the N95 they had a working device to show to the world when SE announced the P990i they come with a paper and promisses. Dogman hit the nail on its head with his comment earlier in the thread. I love symbian and like the S60. The P990i isn't exactly what I would like the public to see in symbian. Sony has one of the worst years in its history and SE feels the 'pressure'. Althou they had a very good year, SE is getting 'milked' by Sony too much. Dogman is right. Ericsson should get out and go on their own. Also some members here should accept that not all people defines devices by the manufacturer ! I classify them by the OS they use ! While I stand by Pxxx or Nxx, I won't bother with a K750 or 6230 :D if this does not make sense to you then ignore my post !

Hi all,
If it ships with the same Li-Polymer 1100aMh battery that's in the N93 and you only really use the GPS in the car so should have a cigarette lighter power adapter i can't see battery life being a problem, now Ram on the other hand that's a different story altogether IMO.

@Dogman, not all are going to use the GPS in a car. I am flying as a hobby and while I could 'make a plan' while in flight, I certainly would prefer the battery. On the other hand my old Garmin GPS72 does not last much over a day on a pair of cheap AA batt. If the N95 will give me half that much, I will be more then happy. Actually I never fly more then a few hours at a time, weather permitting. Mind you, the N95 will substitute 4 devices while 'up'. Camera/HANDICAM, GPS, Radio/MP3 player (I like to listen to sax music while gliding) and yes, my cellphone  . Also because I know a bit about the S60 OS and Python (programing language), I will configure it as a server and give the Internet address to club buddies/friends. They can use Google earth on their PC/Laptops to 'fly with me' in real-time ! ! ! Further more, Nokia fortunately decided to drop the screen protection to increase GPS readability - now for Joe and the rest it may be a bad thing but for Mario and the likes is a big plus - I hope the outdoor screen reading is even better then the N80's (which is the best for now).

Sorry man all you flying freaks don't jump into my head as primary users, but you know what if you go flying take a spare charged battery! it's not like its big or heavy. If you have everything working at once you have to expect it to use power.

@dogmann - Just want to ask you here . . . what's the stand-by time of the batt in your N93 mate? For me , that's ONE of the complete-in-feature mobile phone that we have in the market today . . . how that batt last in: average use, stand-by use and torture use (starting from a FULL charge position)  Thanks!
