After I decided to go for the K810 a few days ago now my provider is telling me that the phone is sold out and that Ill have to wait up to 2 weeks to get the phone, after some arguments they ended up ofering me the Nokia N95 (more expensive) which is available now, I could pick it up as soon as tomorrow.

Ive never liked Nokia but after reading some reviews it really looks like an amazing phone and im getting tempted to go for it.

My concerns:
- Ive used SonyEricsson since the T200, T610 ... till my current W800, will it be hard to get used to the nokia user ihnterface?
- I use the camera half of the time at nights in clubs so I was looking forward to see the K810's Xenon Flash working, the N95 has leds that in my experience with the w800 never gaved me good shots at night, which one is better in those conditions?
- I remember some Nokia with a 2mp camera that was sold like crazy here and when taking pics the save time was extremly long compared to my W800, I could take 2 or 3 pics in the time the Nokia was saving the pic, does this happen with the N95, which one is faster at that task?
- I own a P900 which I still use some times when i forget to charge my W800 but one of the reasons i dont use it a lot its because its too bulky, I dont like having a brick in my pocket (No ofense to P users its a great phone but big), the k810 seems slim but what about the N95?
- The GPS, I dont think i really need it because I travel 2 or 3 time a year, does it comes handy or is it just a toy?
- What about the music? I love my W800 and I never had problems using it as a Music player (well maybe i dont like having like 1.5 meters of cable hanging arround while using headphones that arent the ones that came with the phone) Is the N95 up to it? Again which one would be better?
-SMS storage, im used to never deleting msgs in my W800 (modded with FAR manager), the K810 holds 1000 which seems ok for me, what about the N95?

Sorry for such long post but i dont want to make the wrong choice.

Well the 810 is a fantastic phone. BUT if you're upgrading might as well go all the way.

I just got my N95-2 8GB in the mail and I gotta tell ya, after 10 minutes with the thing I am impressed.

I am a long time SE user as well.

N95 is definitely the best option there.

K810 is good, but surely N95 is something special? It's the only Nokia that appeals to me.

Looks wise i'd go K810, cause the N95 is bulky and ugly imo, but for performance you gotta go with the N95

The N95 doesn't appeal to me personally, but between the two, the N95 definitely is the one to go for. And the Nokia UI only takes a while to get used to, so don't worry about that.

What about the camera performance in low light conditions, Ive see decent shots with the K810 but i dont know about the N95, can anyone post some pics maybe?

After reading this I think Ill will try the N95 tomorrow and make my mind.

Dear don't think just go for nokia n 95 its far much better than SE. Also Nokia has introduced 2 more colors For N95 to match ur clothes so do check pink and red color before buying this. Rest is up to u

@rr - Well, think of the $$$$ too mate . . . if it has a biiiig DISPARITY, then just settle for the K810. I mean if ONE-N95 can already buy you TWO-K810's . . .then go for the latter . . . ! [addsig]

Everybody is discussing here N95 but how come no one is commenting over its battery perfnrmance? I have been listening it drains out very quickly?
