What Customers Say About Nokia N95 Unlocked Cell Phone with 5 MP Camera, International 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS, MP3/Video Player, MicroSD Slot--International Version with Warranty (Silver/Plum):

When I spent too long on phone, it gets overheated and the system shuts itself just like that. This is the worst phone I ever had in my life. Nokia N95 is a complete dread. I cannot do anything but to take the battery out and wait for it to get cooler, replace the battery and turn it on again.I sent them to service, but the same problems still occurs. And to be honest, because of these 2 phones, I am scared of the name "Nokia" I decided to get this over iPhone. I bought 2 of them - as I have 2 numbers, both of them are overheated when charged.

I then found several forums on-line where people are having similar issues with N95s, and others where people complain about the hapless service from Nokia repair. I sent it to Nokia for repair and it died again 48 hrs after getting it back from them. That iPhone is looking really good right now. I researched the capabilities of smart phones in the market and those about to be launched and decided to buy this one over the 3G iPhone. Unfortunately my phone shuts off by itself every few days even with a full battery.

The results are great. Excelent gadget. I'm not sure if a Garmin Nuvi has more reception than this one, but the N95 works fine.The camera works great in sunny days or at close range, but with low light is not as good as a digital camera (still didn't see a phone with a better camera, maybe the latest Sony with 5mp but I think that its lens is the same Carl Zeiss one).I also bought a Sandisk 8GB Micro SD that works perfect with it.I used it to reproduce.avi and.mpeg videos with the cable in a TV and works perfect (the only downsize on this feature is the absence of a remote).You can retrieve your emails in a minute (Gmail - Yahoo or Hotmail) also can chat with it (messenger).Has also VOIP capability.Some of the Pros:- Many programs to add- Better camera than most phones.- Integrated and free GPS- Symbiam OS- Flash- Great video on sunny days and interiors with regular light- 3G- Expandable memory- Speakers volume and fidelity (compare to any other phone I've tried)Why is not perfect:- Pictures with low light- Absence of a touch screen (could have a better keyboard with this)- Use Interface (compared to the iphone one)- Battery (If you use it for playing video doesn't last one day long)- Absence of a tripod adaptor- Is not as slim as other phones (but is not too bad)- Small screen (compared with the iphone)- Wi-Fi range (compared with the iphone one- Headphones volume (don't know if is for protection but is low) I can navigate to any place with it. I've been playing with this phone for over 6 months by now. I recently add the Garmin software to it and I've been using it as GPS for a week.

3) Wired headset picks up a lot of noise4) Many applications are power hungry like GPS, Camera, Video, Youtube vide, streaming video, Battery life is marginal with very heavy use of these features. Wont be embarrassed when you share your pics with your colleagues, they may never know it was taken with a phone cam :D.1) Native youtube support using the web browser2) GPS / Maps applications like Google maps, Nokia sport tracker (which tracks your speed/ altitude/ location in real time while bicycling, and the map can be dumped in Google Earth)3) The stereo speakers are excellent and have great clarity and nice volume. especially when driving / using one hand.15) Light weight and compact package16) The 5MPixel lens is protected by a shutterThe bads1) WiFi is ok. almost all protocols possible7) Good for reading e-mails etc.

First of all The N95 is an excellent Phone. 4) The TV out resolution is low. It is incompatible with Cisco Access Points :((2) The user interface is not eye-candy type and has a reasonable learning curve. The antenna is Great.

supports push IMAP mails8) Can be used as a wireless bluetooth webcam :-)9) Compatible with almost any wired headphones / ear plugs10) NGAGE games are very nice and engaging :D11) Can be connected to a TV to playback video / slide show12) Can be used as a radio tuner :)13) Can change orientation landscape to portrait etc with rotateme application or by sliding in opposite direction14) T9 input is fast. Things appear slightly pixelated Signal strength is excellent (the best I have seen)Battery life is ok, power users may need a spare BL-5F (which can be easily carried around in a wallet).Other great features with the v21 firmware include:0) The 5MP camera provides excellent pictures vis-a-vis phone cameras. 4) The screen can be set to be very bright.5) 8GB microsd card can be used :D6) Great bluetooth support.

- Do you want to watch movies. I would be losing my money, but I might feel relieved of getting rid of such a piece of rubbish out of my pocket.Nokia, congratulations, you created one of the crappiest gadgets ever, and even so were able to sell thousands for an outrageous price. It would take an extensive report to describe only its most conspicuous problems, but I will concentrate in one aspect: it is a product you just cannot rely on, in any single one of its resources. Speaking of planes, the whole thing is completely useless there - not being able to switch off only the phone, you have to switch it off altogether.- Do you just want a mobile phone. N95 is (mainly when we consider its price) one of the worst product of electronic engineering I think I would ever come across.

Be prepared to feed up (as many other reviews pointed out) this little baby every few hours.In my case none of that no longer works because (as it seems that is very usual after checking in the internet) the mobile stopped working (after only 4 months of buying it) because the screen now lit up completely black, not showing anything. Well, I tested it in cities like São Paulo, Atlanta, Washington DC, Buenos Aires, and most of the time I get a signal only when I don't need it anymore (i.e., it was easier to ask around for directions, or look in a map) - and this happened when things were ok, because it frequently failed to locate the satellites even under crystal clear skies (The GPS feature was the main reason I purchased this mobile - and subsequently my first and big disappointment.).- Do you want to browse the internet using the wireless LAN. After waiting on the long line of people to be attended by the Nokia local authorized Technical Assistance, I had to leave and am under the temptation on giving up of having it fixed. Not a trivial achievement. I put my movies (compacted to mp4 using Nokia PC Suite) to the "My Videos" directory to watch in airports. You better don't need it for a quick shot - if you had already the visor opened, you will have to go through many keys to make it work again.- Do you want to switch on the mobile without announcing it to everybody.

Let's first put it in perspective: the main (basically the only) task the engineers had in the design desk was to bring together in a clever way a set of resources that already existed in different devices (mobile, GPS, music and video player, 5Mp camera, internet browsing capabilities, etc). Pray that the wireless network of the hotel/bar where you are does not ask you for a password in the browser - as far as my experience goes, it will not work under these conditions- Do you want to play games. If you are in a plane under terrorist attack and you try to switch it on, the ridiculous opening tune will make sure you will be the first to be killed (I tried to disconnect this tune on the settings - just gave up). They plainly failed. The inbuilt media player didn't find them- Do you want to use the camera. No danger of you getting addicted to this resource of your mobile.

- Do you need a GPS. The horrible disposition of the "dedicated" keys will make sure you also press all the surroundings keys, halting, stopping and messing the game all the time.
