Good Points: All rounder Camera sound and playback Applications (call management, rotating screen...) Connectivity Design as 2 way slider MP3 player
Bad Points: Not great battery life, but more than acceptable and makes up for all the stuff we can do with this phone. Other than than, after 2 years of using it, I can't think of anything bad about it.
General comments: I've had this Nokia N95 phone now for 2 years. I've been looking for to change, but to this date, I cannot find anything close to its quality. I believe the handset was first released in the UK in March and I bought it in July. I've NEVER had a technical problem. Yes the one of the clip on the battery cash broke about 6 months ago, then again, I'm not sure I've had a phone this long. GPS is great and free if not using navigation with internet connection (yes, which is possible), photos and videos are brilliant, better than my old camera, which I chucked, music sound is good with a good headset or speakers (of course maybe not as good as an iPod, but it is only a mobile phone), and all the applications available or that can be added are excellent. For example, I also use my phone as a spirit level and I can switch off the sound by just flipping the phone over. I love the organiser, the sync with outlook, the map updates on the GPS, the shortcuts, the personalisation possibilities, the one touch buttons, in short, EVERYTHING. The slider protects the keys and is less combersome than flip phones. Some of you might say, the battery life is not great but if you do close the applications when you've finished using them instead of just closing the phone immediatly, it last a lot longer. I charge mine every 3 days and before you ask, I spend about 45 euros worth of calls per months with unlimited calls to 3 numbers and unlimited txt. The connectivity (3G/WIFI/GPS) is more than satisfying, not as great as my PC, then again, THIS IS A MOBILE PHONE. :) The best thing about this phone is the connectics. By this I mean the standard plug in on the headphone (jack) and mini usb. This means I don't have to carry my cables with me everywhere if I want to transfer something and I'm be able to use my speakers and headphones with other equipment (TV, PC, laptop...). It also means that I can view my pictures and videos from any TV just by plugging the phone into it using the video/sound cables. All this to say, that should you need an all rounder and you don't like touchscreens like me, this phone is I think to this date, still the best on the market. Rather than spending a fortune on a new phone, I bought a new housing cover for $20 from ecaseshop, who delivered a full replacement housing (shell, cover and tools) within 15 days. It took me less than 1h to replace it (armed with a fine clean paintbrush to clean all the dust inside) and I have now a brand new phone, which already had eveything set up the way I like it! I'm now waiting for the same phone to come out with a better camera still and maybe even better sound.

Have been dissapointed by this Nokia N95 phone since I got it.Navigation is hampered by softkeys that seem ultrasensitive, sending you to bizarre places every time you slightly mishit 'cancel' when trying to delete in a text message.The clunky design, while somethign I originally liked (i'm bored of sleek wanna be futuristic designs), has a lot of edges, gaps and corners which quickly fill with dust - unpleasant.My biggest bug bear, however, is the battery cover. Flimsy and poorly designed, the ...

I got the Nokia N95 8gb one as an upgrade from my service provider and overall I've been pretty pleased with it - aside from the odd positioning of the on/off key the phone itself is quite good. I would definitely recommend it it is a very good phone. A raft of features including GPS, a customizable menu feature (I prefer the list style) the office tools and so forth. I have to be honest I have not had the battery problem others have had.

The Nokia N95 is a great phone. Would recommend it entirely, although it will be interesting to see what the N85 is like when its out because gut feel is it might be better.

The Nokia N95 has good battery life and good sound quality. I've had 3 from vodafone all same probs freezing, switching off, I felt that vodafone were poor at sorting what appears to be a common problem with the handset eg they would not supply a different make. Also said the last warranty was water damaged, I do not believe it was. I've had nokias for years probably give it another go with another model no way an n95! Also i would not use vodafone, but have to where i am

I've got a Nokia N95 and it does the job well, add some extra software and it becomes a mediaplayer. No full size keyboard camera seems poor quality and finds difficulty focusing on objects.

Have had this Nokia N95 phone for over 18 months now and absolutely love it. Contract is up but wouldn't even entertain switching to another phone. OK, some phones may be more stylish and have more advanced features but if you're looking for something which gives you the best all round package then look no further. Oh, and regarding the battery life, I also found this rather frustrating when I first got the phone but soon wised up to the fact that provided applications are closed after use, the ...

Love the fact its so easy to use and navigate. Also the camera is the best I've used on any phone with amazing picture quality. Generally very happy with it and would recommend to anyone... Infact only bad point for me is that the battery power isn't great and needs charging every 24 hours. Also limited amount of music can be stored...

I've had the Nokia N95 for 12 months now and apart from the battery life it's a great phone.
The camera is ace,
The video is great,
The sound quailty of the tracks and Radio is excellent,
The secondary slide is a useful feature too, it takes you straight to your music,
The maps function is excellent,
It has RealPlayer, FlashPlayer, Adobe, Zip, Office, Internet access is good too,
It can be used as a wireless router too.
The phone is just a great little piece of kit, the best phone I've had. ...

The phone looks quite good on the outside but the insides leave a lot to be desired. Have been a loyal nokia fan for a long time, however after this experience I will not be entertaining a nokia for the foreseeable future.

I have now had my Nokia N95 for 15 months. All things considered I would definitely reccomend this mobile phone to other people. I find the best thing about this phone is its ease of use.
The menu is not complicated and things are under the menu option you expect (I have had some phones where it was near impossible to fine the bluetooth settings).
The camera is excellent and takes clear and well balanced photographs with little or no blurring on moving objects. Also, I have been impressed with t ...

This is a great mobile. 5.0 megapixels camera, Wi-Fi, Improved GPS map and dvd-like quality videos are the features that make N95 becomes a user favorite.

Good screen, good cam, brilliant music player...
Not happy with the battery life, size of the phone is too big for me, it feels like a brick in your pocket in my opinion! The Nokia N95 doesn't survive a spin in the washing machine! Therefore I do not recommend this Nokia Mobile Phone. Dont go for it if you like slimline light weight phones, not recommended.

I'd heard a lot of negativities about the Nokia N95 phone, but after wanting this phone for some months (picked Viewty instead, nuff said!) am really glad I didn't listen to those critics. It's a rock solid Nokia phone thats been reliable for me, anyway.
It's got everything I need-calendar, converter, video, mp3 player-you name it, its got it. I love the curser when online-makes browsing the net so much easier.
As I've said if anything does let it down a tadge its the 'bumpy' effect on a smal ...

Nokia recognises that there is a problem with the GPS satnav system and have come up with the "assisted GPS" ideaThe problem was that I found the assisted GPS was fine if you were in the city, but once you got into the countryside, rural areas then it became a problem once again.Assisted GPS is their work-around to poor GPS satnav equipment.Assisted GPS is NOT "true" satnav. Rather than getting the signal directly from the satellite (as in your cars satnav system), assisted GPS gets its positio ...

Where do I start? Terrible battery life, kept crashing - could only restart by taking battery out and re-inserting it, battery cover kept falling off, took it back to t-mobile shop for software upgrade when it came back Nokia said they had not repaired it as it was water damaged! It certainly was not. Had to buy a PAYG handset to see me through to the end of contract. Finally by the time sat-nav had started up and planned a route, you could have walked to your destination. BIG mistake ever getti ...

These problems seem to be very common with this phone, Nokia should scrap this model as most problems just cannot be resolved, its very frustrating when your in the middle of a call and the back comes off, battery drops out.
