I am an independent and have no allegiance to any Service Provider.<br />This Nokia N95-3(Make sure you have the N95-3 NAM North American Model)is still the best all around phone available in the GSM Technology.It blows away the Apple iphone in Reception, durabilty, camera, wifi, video, sound &amp; cost of useable features. It doesnt have a touch screen,but touch screens are over rated &amp; expensive to fix. <br />Some of the negative reviews on here are quite simply moronic. They give it bad remarks for not having a Qwerty keyboard. Thats like buying a red car and giving it a bad review because its red. If you need a qwerty, don't buy a non qwerty phone. I've no problem using the T-9 and can text almost as fast.<br />The camera, is by far the best. There are now equal, and higher, MP cameras out there but they don't have the Carl Zeiss Optics. I'm not a camera tech, but a few have told me better optics beat higher mp's. I have actually printed these pics on 4x6 and 5x7 prints and they look great.<br />The GPS is amazing. Don't get the Nokia maps though. You can get the full Garmin maps from a few shops like myself. Just look for an Old-School independent in your area. He shouldn't charge you more than $75 &amp; you have a full GPS with NO monthly Charge. I've even downloaded maps from all over the world for my customers.<br />The wifi is strong. I can sit anywhere in any hotspot and quickly check my email. It even searches strongly, pulling hotspots from considerable distances.<br />Most impressive is the reception.It blows away any other phone in its class;especially the iphone.So if making a phone call is the most important reason you bought a phone. Buy the N95-3! (CAUTION, Go to a established shop to purchase, there are ALOT of Knockoffs on the internet only a few Pro's can spot; especially on Ebay! I even display one in my store!)</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=34068#review34068 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=34068#review34068 Mon, 15 Jun 2009 19:59:47 GMT <p><i>netboygold submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I really love this phone. I think most of the previous reviews have covered the PROs and CONs pretty well. I just want to say what a great media phone this is.<br /><br />Seamlessly transitions between phone and MP3 player with great sound. It's very easy to use all of the functions... well the camera load time could be faster.<br /><br />I've been pretty impressed with this Phone.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=31908#review31908 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=31908#review31908 Wed, 26 Nov 2008 16:27:53 GMT <p><i>HokiesACC submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>So after almost a year and a half of hearing about this phone, and it finally coming in US form, and a sweet deal I couldn't pass up, I had to replace my N75 with this. Best decision I have ever made. I think it's funny how since it's release, I haven't seen one phone from a US carrier that comes close to what this offers. <br /><br />Highlights:<br />-Great 2.6" display.<br />-S60.<br />-WiFi.<br />-GPS (a little slow getting started but works well and there's even a cool "GPS data" application to track speed, mileage, time).<br />-Built in Nokia Maps.<br />-HSDPA is pretty fast (900-1380 kb/s).<br />-S60 browser is superb and yes there's flash support here (Flash Lite).<br />-Reception is tops.<br />-Stereo speakers are very loud and sound great.<br />-Music player is very good but only using aftermarket headphones. Nokia's suck.<br />-5 MP camera is excellent.<br />-VGA video recording is excellent.<br />-Battery is good enough to last me a full day with web surfing, checking email, watching videos, listening to music, texting, making phone calls, updating my calendar, and using Google maps.<br />-Nokia's firmware updates.<br /><br />Disappointments:<br />-Made in Korea (I expect to see Finland under the battery).<br />-Build quality can be better. The phone creaks almost all the time when grabbed where the microSD hatch is (weakest part of phone).<br />-Front facing camera can be bothersome since it sticks out off the face of the phone 1mm.<br />-Find myself hitting the end key, instead of the clear button sometimes.<br />-The lip below the bottom row of number keys is annoying for me a lot of the time. Others might not be bothered by this. <br />-No built in auto screen rotation (ASR) but I got my own auto rotate app.<br /><br />This phone easily met all expectations I had of it, and continues to impress me. No, it doesn't have a Xenon flash, FP2, or the Navi-Wheel, but If anyone in the US is looking for an everything phone, and doesn't like touchscreens (like me) than you have to take a look at this phone even if it is over a year and a half old.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=30372#review30372 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=30372#review30372 Fri, 08 Aug 2008 15:15:14 GMT <p><i>k16 submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Well after having motos and testing sony' I must say that nokia is great! sp this one. The signal is the best i've ever had! and the gps (i've installed garmin) is really really great. for those who likes being the center of attention buy an ipod. Compare N95 with this last one, is like comparing a pc with a tv. if you prefer ipod, thats because your eyes are bigger than your mind. Really ipod is great, but they are two diferents things. <br /><br />PROS:<br />Nokia N95 is an all in one. With exelent quality, the camera, the viedeo camera, the gps, the viedeo &amp; audio player and the OS symbian who lets you add or use your own aplications (if you don´t like the player or the broser you can use anyone you like, or the gps, like me that i'm using garmin instead).<br />The batery life in this version is great! realy great, and if you run out of it it brings you a car charger all included with the phone package, also bring earphones, traveler charger, a/v cables (yeah you can conect it to the tv, and with a divx player i've seen severals movies) and a microsd memory.<br /><br />CONS:<br />well i must say that if you own this phone you should have a special care with it, because if it falls one it will have two scratches! It feels realy good wen you touch it, but the materials are very ¿week?<br /><br />The thing with the iphone is that the touchscreen it makes navigating the phone much more easy, and the screen is larger (2 points to the iphone! That's a p h o n e!)</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=30059#review30059 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=30059#review30059 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 14:30:34 GMT <p><i>bsf submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Used the N95-3 whihch is the latest version (besides the 8GB) version for US. Came with the larger battery now being used for this phone.<br /><br />Pros;<br /><br />Camera - amazing pics for a phone<br />Bluetooth - works well with headset<br />WiFi - connects easily and fast<br />3G - web pages load very quickly<br />PDA/Smartphone - allows you to sync online with Exchange for calendar, contacts, tasks and email. However, if you keep notes in contacts only first few lines come over.<br />Music - great speakers. Sounds great.<br />Solid operating system - never locked up.<br /><br />Cons;<br /><br />Battery - you will not last the entire day without charging even if you turn off Wifi, 3G and bluetooth. I tried every configuration and even with the larger battery it is not acceptable.<br />Size - the phone is thick. Not very comfortable in pants pocket because of that.<br /><br />Overall, the phone feels very solid and packs a lot. If the battery would last an entire day, it would have been a keeper and I would have rated it higher.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=29933#review29933 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=29933#review29933 Tue, 15 Jul 2008 15:49:56 GMT <p><i>Thompj4 submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3</b> (out of 5)</p><p>so im kind-of a cell phone freak (working on my 20th or more phone) and after i saw this one and it came down in price i snagged one at $440 on ebay new. it was the n95-3. lets just say i was blown away at first but it kinda diminished as the weeks went on. <br /><br />pros:<br /><br />-can do anything<br />-great signal (work deep in a office building and the only place i cant get reception is the bathroom.... who needs it there anyways)<br />-great call quality<br />-great camera<br />-great setup and operating system<br />-brilliant screen<br />-battery life was pretty good for me considering i used the mp3 function pretty regularly at work<br />-headphone jack is a must<br />-sdhc up to 8gb was perfect<br />stereo sound was amazing, best i have ever heard on a phone<br />-free gps <br />-wifi<br />-the unlimited add on's<br /><br />now for the cons.<br /><br />-gps - would freeze up and reset the phone if used for too long<br />-signal- switching from edge to 3g would reset the phone or would lose signal for a long time... which is a big problem for me (and i know you can turn 3g off but whats the point of buying a phone that has that capability if you have to turn it off to get it to function correctly)<br />-mp3 - songs would skip sometimes or wouldnt play and it couldnt be the files because they worked on everything else (old blackberry, ipod, computer)<br />-screen - the other day it started having black lines go through it but they come and go but it extremely annoying (one of the reasons im getting rid of the phone)<br />-back scratches too easily due to the soft touch paint<br />-the screen slider scratches the underside where the keyboard is<br />-kinda laggy at times<br />-no keyboard (i knew this going in but in my mind i thought i would deal with it, maybe would have helped if they had a suretype keyboard)<br /><br />all in all it was a good phone, too many problems for me for a phone that had a $400+ price when it came out<br /><br />i ditched my blackberry curve 8310 for this one and i think im going to go back (at least until the BOLD comes out that is)</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=29164#review29164 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=29164#review29164 Sat, 31 May 2008 04:20:50 GMT <p><i>ccilfone submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>The N95 is possibly the most amazing phone ever made. Yes this is quite a statement, and the n95 8gb does have a larger screen and a functioning accelerometer, but despite those 2 small short comings this phone is amazing. I have owned this phone for the past month and a half, prior to this I had owned the treo 650,&amp; 750 and the moto v3xx, all were and absolute joke in comparisson. I have since purchased and n81, n82, and and 8800 s40. <br /><br />I can say without a doubt that there is no better functioning phone loaded down with freeware s60 software. The functionality especially since the release of the n78 in which the firmware release was finally posted to . Since they have released another 5 or 6 apps that are fantastic. I have read alot on the battery life and running 3g all day along with truphone,wifi, and a ton of other apps in the background, I still get a full 12 hours. <br /><br />So if you don't have one and are considering getting one, go for it, this will change the way you look at cell phones, it will make carrying ipods, laptops, and cameras a thing of the past. Also it is like a new way of life with a ton of s60 blogs and sites on the web with a ton of freeware this will become a new extension of your body!!!!!<br /><br />This phone actually excited me enough to start working in the cell industry, I have become a top salesman in a month and I am pumped to have such a great tool to help me out.<br /><br />With Truphone which embeds directly into the phone calling overseas is free if not less than a cent a minute.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=28916#review28916 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=28916#review28916 Wed, 14 May 2008 04:28:06 GMT <p><i>pepsijunky submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Haha, the Nokia fanboys aren't going to like this, AvgJoe, I'm sorry but you hyped my head and let me down. <br /><br />Obviously this phone has amazing features, it literally does all of the big things as far as GPS, wifi, 5 mp camera, video, etc etc. It's crazy the features. But, I miss the little things from my blackberry or iphone. Quick run down:<br /><br />Pros<br />All the features listed above<br /><br />Cons<br />-Browser is stupid compared to the iphone, don't tell me about opera mini, iphone browser kicks a$$. period.<br />-t9 texting after having a blackberry and iphone? terrible, it's the hardest thing ever, I quit.<br />-size, too thick<br />-colors, visuals, etc, not good, that was another thing great about the iphone.<br />-Nokia maps is not as good as google maps, it's too euro-ish.<br />-the slider gets old.<br /><br />Anyway, what it comes down to is I don't use all the features enough, therefore it comes down to the little things day to day. This phone is nothing special day to day but obviously brilliant when you need to do it all. It really is a great phone, but not for me.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=28721#review28721 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=28721#review28721 Wed, 30 Apr 2008 17:34:29 GMT <p><i>Tonylegend01 submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I have had this device for about six months and, I have recently purchased a new 8gb version of this device so now that I am done with this device I'd thought i'd submit my review. <br /><br />I really like the camera on this device the 5mp camera is the best I've seen so far. As a matter of fact it is better than most digital cameras I've seen. The Carl Zeiss optics is off the chain. The call clarity is crystal clear. I think the sliding camera mechanism on the back is cool too. I love the dual slider however the buttons for the multimedia functions are difficult to use and press. I was pleasantly surprised that phone could actually accept a 4gb mirco SD card which allowed to pretty much load up my phone with mp3 files. The sound quality for the music is superb! However I would have liked it I could get more bass with playback. The ergonomics is of the device can be tricky at first but you can easily overcome that. Despite the fact that I could not get 3G service in North America with this device, I was still pleased with it's EDGE speeds and capabilities. Overall, I am very impressed with the overall performance of the N95-1 and, I really look forward to getting my N95-4 8GB. Based on the feedback I've heard so far I'm sure that I would be having a better mobile experience. <br /><br />Pros:<br />Nice big screen<br />High bright resolution screen<br />Excellent Camera<br />Great sound quality for calls<br />Speakers are very loud and clear for music<br /><br />Cons:<br />You have to get used to ergonomics of the device<br />Lack of bass when playing music<br />The blue backlight of the keypad seems very "4 years ago" to me<br />Very difficult to take a photo while holding the phone horizontally<br /><br />Overall: 8***/10</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=28681#review28681 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=28681#review28681 Sun, 27 Apr 2008 01:47:54 GMT <p><i>Rocketmac submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Purchased this as an impulse while Comp USA was going out of business.<br /><br /><br />Pros:<br />1. Camera: Many custom options, great in low-light.<br />2. Phone Quality: It's built extremely well.<br />3. S60: Series 60 is no doubt the best and most tested mobile phone system at there.<br />4. Navigation w/WiFi: Enough said with that, works well and can sync over WiFi.<br />5. Connectivity, offers Nokia's signature ability to pull signal where most can't.<br />6. Memory Card (4GB in there right now on mine).<br />7. Community: There are so many user groups out there, it provides a sense of connectivity with other mobile users.<br /><br />Cons:<br />1. Battery life: Which can be tweaked to get anywhere from 2-5 days instead of a few hours.<br />2. Ear-piece volume is lacking at times (which afflicts many Nokia phones).<br />3. Great for European 3G, but the NA version would be great on AT&amp;T's 3G service.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=28563#review28563 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=28563#review28563 Tue, 15 Apr 2008 06:23:07 GMT <p><i>AvgJoe submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>The N95 is better. <br /><br />The ONLY thing I miss is the Xenon flash.

(Nice resale) I recently bought the N95-3 on ebay used for $450. <br /><br />I cannot think of anything I would add to this phone. ( IM sure Nokia will though)<br /><br /><br />I print from the phone wirelessly to my network printer and have used Mobiola to canvert All video files to the phone. The phone is an extension of our home network. <br /><br />A Swiss Army knife for a phone. This one's a keeper. I would have bought the 8G but I like the idea of unlimited memory rather having to tether the phone to transfer files. The USB transfer is not the fastest.

Though USD 42 Holux GPSlim 236 GPS receiver is more superior (http://www.phonearena.com/htmls/Nokia-N95-Review-review-r_1744-p_7.html)<br />- Stereo sound, wifi connection, infra red.<br />- For my age, bigger display with same resolution does really help.<br />- Feel more robust and sturdy.<br /><br />Nokia 6120 Plusses:<br />- Built in display rotation.<br />- Built in panoramic shot.<br />- Small, lightweight and economical.<br />- Candy bar form factor will last longer as no moving parts.<br />- Better battery life. I charged the phone battery once every 4 â€" 5 days.<br /><br />Both phones work well with 8GB Micro SD Card. The other features are about the same, as both are Symbian S60 3rd so my programs collections for Nokia 6120 Classic are also work with Nokia N95.<br />N95 has 4 times bigger internal memory (± 40 Mb vs ± 160 Mb) but with 6120’s 40 Mb I had not yet faced any problem.<br /><br />So if I have to buy a new phone from my own money and for my own use, I will still go for Nokia 6120 Classic (or Nokia N82 now).

My SE S700i was on its last legs, but has served me well since Dec 2004. After reading many opinions, and reviews, I thought I would add my 2 cents after playing with the phone for about one week. Like many reviewers have said, this could perhaps be one of the best phones of the year, or perhaps, ever.<br /><br />Pros:<br />- Camera: 5 MP pictures are great, lots of manual options, great in low light<br />- Screen: Large and very bright<br />- Connectivity: Bluetooth 2.0, infrared, HSDPA, EDGE, Wi-Fi are great<br />- Speaker: Great stereo speakers for speaker phone, and MP3 use<br />- Build: Very nice, solid and satisfying clicking when sliding screen, keys are good. Rubberized backing is great<br />- OS: Symbian S60 is quite fast. Really easy to navigate, and multi-task multiple programs. Capable of downloading many S60 applications<br />- Synchronization: Syncs easily with Outlook via bluetooth 2.0, infrared, or USB<br />- GPS: Cold fix only takes about 40-60 seconds, normal like other GPS devices<br />- Voice Dialing: Don't need to record your voice, it simply knows based on how it is named in your phone book<br />- Stand by: Clock, date, and current profile was something that I missed on the S700i during the dimmed stand by screen<br /><br />Cons:<br />- Alarm: Can't use the radio as an option for the alarm<br />- Texting: I like SE's T9 more, where it's much easier to add in a comma or pick the correct predictive word from a mini list that pops out, rather than pressing * to cycle through them<br />- Battery Life: About 1.5 days with Wi-Fi, GPS, and 3G use, but was expected with all of the power hungry applications. Battery area is quite warm after a while<br />- Ear Piece: Most N95's (Google search it) have a slight buzz or humming emanating from around the ear piece when the LCD is on. Also sounds slightly hollow during calls<br />- Head Phones: There is some static from the head phones when listening to music on quiet songs, but not to the extent like the W810i</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=25623#review25623 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=25623#review25623 Mon, 15 Oct 2007 19:25:48 GMT <p><i>jimboski93 submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I'm in the same boat as most of the posters above, but I wanted to add a few comments<br /><br />GPS - the newest (Oct 15?) version of Google Maps is a great addition. The supplied Nokia maps is great, but often it would take a while (2 mins or more) to get my GPS location. The new Google Maps app 1.) updates you on your connection status (the Nokia Maps just shows a 'connecting' icon) 2.) Puts your location on the map quickly and then narrows down the margin of error<br /><br />Camera - I haven't quite figured this out yet, but the file sizes for the camera even at the highest settings are pretty small. I have a 4 MP Pentax Optio that takes much better pictures than this 5MP camera. Having said that, the camera does blow the phone-camera competition out of the water. Just don't expect to be taking pics that are comparable to a stand-alone 5MP camera.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=25030#review25030 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=25030#review25030 Thu, 06 Sep 2007 03:24:20 GMT <p><i>adubgsx submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Yes it's true... I sold my iPhone and bought a N95. It does it all. It sounds better it looks almost as good, and it has everything that a phone would need to b considered serious. I am an avid Apple Product Supporter but I service them for a living. Maybe a few versions later i could go back, but not now. Nokia has developed probably the best multimedia phone on the market. The camera is amazing, the sound is amazing, and it syncs to my mac. This pleases me greatly. You have read the others pros and con so i will spare you. I love this phone and don't think i will regret getting rid of my iphone. <br />BUY THIS Phone!!!!!!!!!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=24672#review24672 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1065&r=24672#review24672 Mon, 13 Aug 2007 20:27:36 GMT <p><i>Wish4aN95 submitted this review of the Nokia N95:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Hi Folks, <br /><br />This phone is absolutley amazing, I'm here to clear up a few concerns. Firstly the battery life was considered below average and Nokia has released the new 1200amp battery which is substantialy better. This phone offers high end smartphone users to use the Wlan and multimedia business apps to use this phone effectivley in the workplace. Nokia will also be intruducing an 8GB version of the N95 under the assumed Music version. Some applications may be missing on that line due to the extra memory. This phone is not only for smartphone users but the everyday user, incorporation of the media dual slider mode makes it the most wanted phone among youth also. <br /><br />PRO<br />wlan<br />dual slider<br />5MP camera<br />DVD quality video<br />**comes with AV cables for easy viewing on a TV<br />smaller than the N80 with more punch<br />Better battery life now<br />The latest firmware has been released <br />Mac and PC compatible (Quite good with Mac's I might add)<br /><br />CON<br />Some complain about the materials, I have no problems though<br />Sluggish, which really depends on your memory situation<br />The price factor, the lowest price I have seen personally is at http://www.hi-mobile.net<br /><br />I hope I've helped, I'll keep everyone posted about the music edition N95 in the upcoming months.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1065
