Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Combining a cell phone, GPS receiver, digital camera/camcorder, digital audio player, and PDA into an all-in-one multimedia computer/phone, the stylish silver-and-bronze Nokia N95 features a unique 2-way slide design for easy switching between telephony, entertainment, and Web browsing. The quad-band Nokia N95 GSM/EDGE phone is also ready to run on 3G networks here in the US (850/1900 MHz UMTS), enabling fast downloads and streaming multimedia while on the go. It also includes integrated Wi-Fi connectivity (802.11b/g) for accessing open networks at work, at home, and on the road from a variety of wireless hotspots.

It's based on S60 software operating on the Symbian OS, enabling you to personalize the N95 by choosing from a wide choice of compatible applications that can be downloaded--including games, navigation, entertainment, and productivity titles. This version of the Nokia N95 (model N95-3) has an internal 160 MB memory, and it includes a MicroSD expansion slot compatible with cards up to 4 GB in size.

The N95 slides two ways to reveal a phone keypad (top) and media controls (bottom).

This unlocked cell phone can be used with a GSM network service provider and it provides quad-band connectivity (850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 1900 MHz). It does not come with a SIM card, and it requires that you provide a SIM card for usage with your selected service provider.

The innovative 2-way slide concept makes it easy to switch between different modes, going from reading maps to watching a video with a simple slide. A numeric keypad slides out from one end of the device while dedicated media keys slide out from the opposite direction, converting the display into full screen landscape mode.

With the Carl Zeiss optics on the 5-megapixel camera, you can capture print quality photos and DVD-like quality video clips. Carl Zeiss, a world leader in high quality camera lenses, brings an award-winning legacy to the Nokia N95 with state-of-the-art optics for mobile photography and mobile video. The Zeiss name has been associated with cameras from Hasselblad, Rollei, Yashica, Sony, and Nikon.

Snap incredible photos with the 5-megapixel camera on the back of the N95.

The Nokia N95 actually has two cameras, a high resolution camera on the back of the device (the main camera in landscape mode) and a lower resolution camera on the front (CIF resolution, 352 x 288). The main camera on the back of the N95 supports an image capture resolution of 2592 x 1944 pixels. (Note that the low-resolution camera on the front can provide two-way video calling; however, at this time no U.S. carrier offers this service.) You can use both cameras to take still pictures and record videos. Images are saved as JPEG files while videos are recorded in the MPEG-4 file format with the .mp4 file extension, or in the 3GPP file format with the .3gp file extension (sharing quality). Photos and video clips can be enjoyed on a compatible television thanks to the device's TV out feature and support for Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) technology.

With instant access to the Internet, sharing life experiences with the world by uploading pictures and videos directly to popular picture sharing and blogging sites is quick and easy. The N95 includes software for uploading images directly to the Flickr.com website, one of the world's most popular photo communities, which allows you to share pics with friends and family, send photos directly to your blog, or simply organize and store.

Aspiring photographers and film makers don't have to stop at just capturing stunning images and DVD-like quality video (640 x 480 pixels at 30 fps) with the Nokia N95. An integrated photo and video editor allows for music and tags to be added before sending images to friends or uploading them to the web.

The Nokia N95 also offers a large 2.6-inch QVGA 16 million color display, impressive 3D graphics, built-in stereo speakers offering a 3D stereo effect, standard 3.5 mm audio jack, support for compatible microSD cards (up to 4 GB) and mini USB for convenient data transfer. Other highlights include 802.11b/g Wi-Fi with WPA2/WPA security, Bluetooth v2.0 connectivity, and 160 MB of internal memory, as well as the following features.

Lifeblog
Designed with mobile photographers and bloggers in mind, the Nokia N95's Lifeblog feature lets you view, search, edit, and share your personal digital content with ease. Lifeblog's synchronizing software automatically pulls your media together into an easy-to-browse, searchable multimedia diary: SMS, MMS, images, videos, sounds, and text notes stay organized between the N95 and your PC.

GPS Mapping
Plan your route, find your way home, and get to know places you've never visited with the integrated GPS mapping capability. The Maps application includes maps for more than 100 countries, enabling you to explore the world, find specific routes or locate services such as restaurants and hotels and covering more than 15 million points of interest. You can also purchase additional features, such as city guides and voice guided navigation.

Nokia Web Browser with Mini Map
View web pages as they were originally intended with the integrated Nokia Web Browser, which enables you to zoom out to a full screen view of the entire page using the Mini Map feature. Find the section you want and then zoom in to the content you need. The text instantly adjusts to the size of your screen. The browser also keeps a history of your browsing so you can quickly get back to where you started.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) technology means that the Nokia N95 will discover, interact with, and control other compatible home electronic devices. This includes PCs, media centers, home entertainment systems, new smart appliances, home automation systems, networked peripherals, and Web-based services. With compatible equipment, you can stream video from your Nokia device directly to your TV, or hear music tracks stored on your PC through your living room's sound system.

RealPlayer Multimedia Playback
Take your media with you when you're out on the go. With the built-in RealPlayer software, you can stream and download your favorite content onto the N95, giving you access to the latest news, sports, and entertainment updates. Or sync up with your PC and play the music and movies stored on your hard drive.

Vital Statistics
The Nokia N95 weighs 4.25 ounces and measures 3.9 x 2.1 x 0.83 inches. Its 950 mAh lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 4 hours of GSM talk time (2.7 hours using 3G networks), and up to 225 hours of digital standby time. This quad-band phone runs on the 850/900/1800/1900 MHz GSM/GPRS/EDGE frequencies, as well as the 850/1900 UMTS (WCDMA) 3G frequencies in the United States.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than iPhone, May 11, 2008

By	hdtravel (USA) - See all my reviews

This is an excellent phone.

I had an iPhone 8GB and sold it on ebay and bought the Nokia N95-3 Red. I like this phone much better.

I love this phone. It is feature rich and works great.

Reception is very good and calls sound loud and clear.

There are a lot of programs ( applications ) available for free that you can download and install.

It is totally unlocked so you can use any SIM you please with any GSM carrier. You sure can't do that with the iPhone which is locked to AT&T and forces you into a 2 year contract. Yuck !

It works great with my 2 Apple Mac computers now that Nokia supports Mac. Very nice addition Nokia !!

The camera is the best of any phone and shoots nice stills and even better videos. Extremely handy ! Finally a phone with a camera that actually works and is useful.

Music, photos, and videos are fun on the N-95 too.

Bottom line, this is a very high quality, feature rich phone. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Geek Phone, May 20, 2008

By	Shane Conder (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I got this phone because of it's features; I already owned an Apple iPhone. The SIM card pops out of the iPhone and in to this phone without any issues at all. That makes switching between the phones a breeze.

For me, this phone is actually more fun to use than the iPhone. I still use my iPhone with WiFi, but I can do so much more with this phone. Off the top of my head, I listed 25 things that this phone can do that the iPhone can't do on my blog (at http://www.kf6nvr.net/blog/archives/000866.html).

However, this phone can't do any of it nearly as easily. I would not recommend this phone to anyone who wants an easy to use phone. It's not. In fact, it's even hard for me to use at times and I specialize in such things.

But the ability to take 5MP images with autofocus, video that can be live streamed to the web via Qik, ease of sharing photos via 3rd part applications (all the way to 0 click sharing), geotagging of photos, true GPS and mapping software, and a variety of other things was too much for me to pass up.

Although this phone has true 3G (and 3.5G) I find that most places don't have as good of 3G coverage as I would like, but it has WiFi which works great in many, many places. This has actually shown me that Apple's decision on the first iPhone was actually a good one.

Recommended for geeks and nerds, but few others. Be prepared to spend time poking about to figure out how to do things and even more time configuring things and downloading apps that make the device work much better.

4.0 out of 5 stars great features.. Good camera.. good Wi-fi... works great with AT&T prepaid., June 29, 2008

By	Rahul Mittal "Rahul" (Kansas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Bought this mobile for my wife from amazon when the price was 455$. wort the price. loaded with lots of features.. 5Mp camera works great.. takes awsome pictures(see the pictures taken by this camera in the images.). Took the At&T prepaid plan with this mobile os that my wife can call me in case of emergency... it comes with a 1GB of card.. mine was already in the phone.. Here are some of the important features ..
1.Bluetooth: works great.. take the pictures and instant transfer to my laptop.
2.IR
3.5Mp camera.
4.Video clips.
5.Music player.
5.Wi-fi
6.2.6 inch lcd
7. Comes with a GPS.. Never tried this feature... my nuvi 350 works great..
8. Comes with a good hands free head phone..

Comes with a free Mobal card which is of no use.. It was written that it comes with a 20$ refill but never got those minutes... instead it requires your credit card to activate the card... Totally useless....
I will say don't waste ur time looking into it.. just buy the phone...

My only concern is with the body..

It is good in terms of weight but the plastic doesn't looks good in hands.. don't know if it's just me...

Over all this mobile is a killer deal... But.......... if Apple would have come unlocked, I definately will have bought it... :))
