Just picked me up an N95
Couldn't pass up a $440 N95-3. Im going to use it for a week or two and see if 3G is all that.
The wife does not want the N82. She prefers her 6126. So I may sell it if I prefer the N95.
look for it on Ebay Tombo7777 if interested.

Joe,
Which one is the N95-3, is that the american version with 3 gigs? Where can you find one for that low? The lowest I saw was Dell for about $530.

the version that supports American 3g networks. Just about everything else is the same as the original.
...
so is the 8gb "north american" version a big pain in the a$$ or something? why not get an 8gb for $30 more?

The 8GB forces you to use the USB port to download your music and movie files to. Can you say F I V E hours to transfer?
I prefer to load the SD cards directly then insert them into the phone. I like using SD cards and I can install Garmin on them easily and use it on both the N82 and N95 when I switch out the cards
I just don't see the "upgrade" t to the N95-4.
The downside is steeper for my use.

Actually its a lot different from the original which had a smaller battery and some camera issues with slow start up. This one also has much much more RAM then the original which could not run a lot of applications simultaneously.
They fixed a lot of issues on the N95-3. The N95 4 is not so much different from the three. 10MB more RAM, .2" larger screen ad some software one can get on the three. However the N95-4 has 8GB memory limit and Garmin cannot be installed on it (legally). And the USB transfer is horribly S L O W becasue you cannot load your music and files on an SD ...

Actually the N95-3 has a better battery than the original and more memory than it's European counterpart.

Ebay is my Friend. The N95-3 is the one with the SD card (up to 32GB) and 3G.
The N95-4 would have cost abot $150-$200 more new. I don't see that much worth of "better" in the N95-4. .2" larger screen. Paging files and flash Ho Hum.
I rarely buy phones new. Especially high end ones. The owners of them are so anal if they had a lemon they would have had it replaced. Some people on HoFo actually complain about some creaking and a slightly loose sliding mechanism. I'm not that anal.

No. This is the N95-3.

There a three ways to tell you its a N95-3. First, 850/1900 WCDMA which are the U.S. 3G bands. Second, 160mb internal phone memory. Third, 1200mAh battery, the original N95 had only a 950mAh battery.
The link is where I bought my N95-3 and my wifes N82 from. They gave me good service and fair prices. You will like this phone!
...
I bought it used on Ebay. He had it 6 weeks then apparently had to switch carriers and was given a PDA phone through work.
Paid less then I paid for my N82 (But the N82 had the Garmin XT SW)

We will see. I thought the N82 was the best phone but I realized I used media net more than the Xenon flash......LOL
...
Me too, I went for it as well. I got you got the wheels turning in your direction Joe, I hope it's worth it! If not i guess I can sell it on ebay.

You will LOVE that phone if you are a gadget junkie. It's a Swiss Army knife on steroids.....
...
I've had this phone for a couple of months now. I love it. Don't have 3g in my area so use wifi a lot. bets phone i have ever owned and i have owned a lot of phones.
...
Actually BROWN it does have DC....The only problem is that it isn't supported by ATT. Sorry I think you should read the specs before you open the mouth. To tell you the truth a lot of the newer Nokias have DC....
...
actually yeah I just picked up a nice cheap 6555 with a dedicated DC button.. course I'll never USE it but its there

Uhhh Yep it does.....another dweeb who speaks without doing research and looks like an ass.
Now the network does not. But thats not Nokia's fault.
...
Haha look at you getting your panties all twisted..yes it does but not the network..kinda like all your dropped calls but cool features eh! 🤣

I will nad have GLADLY "suffer" a few dropped cals forthe features every day of the week.
Its part of the price I willingly pay for the flexibility and freedom of a GSM network and their first rate phones. Can you hear me now?
...
Can I hear you now? No but I read what your wrote. I don't have verizon..Glad you like your new phone! 🙂
...
You have Sprint, which is worse! I won't even dignify any sort of talk regarding that network. Been there done that, worked there hated that.
...
Been with ATT since the old blue ATT Wireless, after leaving SPrint after 3 consecutive months of incorrect bills which their customer service REFUSED to correct .... can't tell you how glad I am to be a loyal blue customer cause they've been good to me on a few FUBAR bills over the years.. Sprint ? I still get a collection letter from them occassionally.. mess my credit up idiots...
...
BROWN27 is a Sprint troll. He's the same jackass that jumps on anyone who post anything negative about Sprint over in that forum. Bragging about Sprint is like bragging that you buy all your clothes at WalMart.

Wow, OK. Let me start off by saying that the comment brown made is just dumb. Not everyone cares about DC. And nokia pos? High end Nokias are great phones. I'd call the low end nokias crap, but not the high end ones.
Why do y'all feel that because someone has Sprint service that they are "low rent," trailer park trash, ghetto or are just a dead beat with bad credit? I have Sprint. All of my family and almost all of my friends have Sprint. We're good hard working people that pay our bills on time, don't live in trailers, are not banging our siblings and have at least decent credit.
Y'all like to say how the network is horrible. Well...
(continues)
...
You're right, each carrier performs different in certain parts of the country. Also, the statement about SPrin customers is a blanket generalization, I worked there, I do think a ton of dead beat people have sprint but I also used to have it and I have good friends who have it. No biggie. Sprint always just had the lowest deposit required when I worked ther so if someone destroyed their credit, sprint was still an option.
...
I understand the generalization. I just wanted to speak up for the good customers that are here too. There's alot of them. But the bad ones are the ones that people talk about.
I used to sell Sprint, I'm a tech now, and the lower deposit was a nice selling tool.
I just get tired of sooo many people bad mouthing the company. I know that the image isn't good right now. I know that it will take a long time to fix it. I'm just doing my part where i can to show the good side.
If i go to the mall in my Sprint shirt, i get looks and the occasional snickering from people working the booths and stores for the other carriers. Every now and then i set them straight, or correct them if hear them giving false info to a customer about ...

He doesn't know. Its an ignorant knee jerk (heavy on the jerk) response.

Words from someone who never owned a phone even close in features to the Nokia...
Yeah You're credible. 😳 😳

Hey BROWN? Aren't you the Sprint homo that's always jumping on people for posting negative comments about Sprint in that forum? I've read some might big lectures from you about trolling a forum just to be negative. Guess you are a hypocrite as well as a low rent Sprint user.

Thoughts? Likes/dislikes?
The only thing I dislike about it having both the N95 and N82..is the lack of the Xenon flash the N82 has. But the 3G is makes up for that. I use that more than the flash.
ITs a really complete gadget,
Its does everything well.
GPS is a real SAT receiver chip not dependent on the network
The video capture is real VGA at 30FPS not the more common phone QVGA
NO corners are cut on either phone as far as features go from my vantage point. I can read and edit MS Office files carry personal data in an encrypted folder, increase memory up to 32GB as the technology becomes available on SD cards
3.5 mm Headphone jack is a small but extremely useful addit...

I have yet to really use the N95. The nokia representative for my store came by the other day and she had one and from what i was able to do on it was pretty cool but as far as making calls and everything i did not have a chance to really test it out but its a really nice phone. How long have you been using it now?
...
I cannot imagine using another phone. I have become accustomed to the all in one nature of the phone.
you need to understand I don't really use text messaging much if at all so qwerty is not needed. Reception is great. (The network where I am is not so hot) but the Nokia does better than any other phone I have used here.

Good for you. I have both the N95 and the N82. I just put the N82 on Ebay where I bought the N95.My wife did not want it. She's happy with her 6126.....Gotta love her.
You are going to love that little gadget, I would say phone but the phone part is such a SMALL part of that "toy"
...
The funny thing is the phone was supposed to be delivered via fedex on Monday but I tracked it down to the local airport here and I am going to snipe it before it ever hits a truck. Gotta love customer tracking.

Looking forward to your "review" and experience.
I already know what its going to be though IF you understand that a phone this powerful and small should be put on a charger every night and you should have a car charger and a charger where you work and an extra battery.
You can buy extra batteries and a cradle for less than $10 on Ebay.
Another thing I love about the N95 are the included headphones. You can USE YOUR OWN ear buds and still be able to make and recieve call...

So far so good, the phone is well crafted, I am in a non 3g area this weekend but the wifi, camera, etc is working well. I have a lot of work to do on this bad boy to learn how to use everything. I'm new to Nokia, the operating system and obviously this kind of freedom in a device.

Its pretty intuitive. Once you get on the N95user forums you will learn a lot and DL some pretty neat SW as well. If you want the best GPS without a monthly charge. Buy the GArmin XT package. Its like having a Nuvo 660 in the phone. There is SW out there to use the phone like a WII as the phone has an accelerometer in it. You can "drive" a car by tilting the phone etc. And rotate the screen in every mode as op...

So far so good Joe, the camera and video is really impressive, used it this weekend. Currently setting up e-mail, contacts etc. You got any tips for me as a new N95 user? Sofware maybe? Anyway, I'll keep working.

Three must have SW paks. Garmin XT, Handy Taskman, You can also put the Opera browser on it, And for the PC Mobiola Video Studio Pro which converts any video file to a small file and sends it to your phone via BT. you can put whole movies on the memory card phone to watch later.
You can also print from your phone to a printer on your home network as well as have the phone show up on your network.
Sw applications are not that expensive. Garmin is $99 but the alternative is...
