Towards the end of 2006, Nokia announced the next generation of their very successful N-series. At the vanguard is a two-way slider-phone, the Nokia N95. This new concept is meant to facilitate easy switching between the keypad and multimedia controls.
What promises to be exciting for the Nokia faithful and, quite frankly, for mobile user community in general, are the high all round specs which include high speed web-browsing via 3.5G (HSPDA) which is meant to be 10 times faster than 3G, a fairly large (2.6 inch) high quality 16M colours TFT display and a 5MP camera with a Carl Zeiss lens and autofocus.
Perhaps the greatest selling point of the N95 is an integrated GPS including free downloads of maps for over 100 countries. For most, these are detailed maps up to street level
Connectivity is quite broad with support for 3G, Bluetooth, Infrared and USB.
Multimedia capabilities are impressive and like its predecessors in the N-series, the Nokia N95 is an excellent music player and supports wireless Bluetooth stereo output. A wide range of music formats including MP3, AAC, AAC+ and WMA are supported. Video recording and playback is available. There is an FM radio too.
The N95 has a 150Mb native memory and there is a microSD card slot so this is expandable according to need.
The phone’s dimension are a decent 99 x 20 x 53mm so it is not joining the thin brigade. It weighs 120g.
Estimated Talktime: Up to 6hrs 30min
Standby: Up to 220 hours.
