> N95 or P1?
Bookmark topic
With the new v20 N95 firmware with demand paging, battery life has improved about 25% which brings N95 close to what you can get for P1 (which do not have demand paging). As reported, the newer batch of N95 has no slider issues.
If you use P1 like [b]nitrofan[[b] did with his N95 then you need to carry at least 1 spare battery for the P1

Are you looking for a multimedia phone? Go for the N95...
Plusses: Great cam, integrated gps, faster
Are you looking for a business phone? Go for the P1i...
Plusses: Qwerty-ish keyboard, touchscreen, stability, battery
All depends on what you prefer... might wanna consider the W960i if you find the P1i design so bad?

there is a new firmware available for n95 bringing battery life up to 30% more? and more ram free, but that would still make it 1 1/2 days and probably half the free ram p1i has
I think the answer is obvious...

Go for P1i.
IMO Smartphones have to have Touchscreen + QWERTY Keyboard. These were 2 major reasons why I choose P1i over N95.

I see but I am not taking it for this kind of business use,its more because I want a all in one phone!
God! why SE designers choosed RED color for the keypad font??? it's so ugly! if only they kept the the beautifull white look of the M600
The W960 doesn't enter my budget,it's way too expensive

@ Offliner
NO! Not everyone wants a QWERTY board and/or Touchscreen on their Smartphone. A phone with an OS makes a Smartphone.
@ Vegetaleb
If you want an ALL-IN-ONE device then the N95 is what you should go with forget P1 you dont even like how P1 looks so leave it. Get the N95 and update it to v20 FW and you will have great Multimedia Smartphone WAY better than P1 for Multimedia and most other things.

the battery life is TERRIBLE on the n95!! (the reason i got a rid of it) and build quality is not the best (wobbly slide)
and it took terrible pics (
see this photo )
good things about the n95 are music quality and the dedicated 3.5mm jack for headphones is good
the p1i is nicer and is easier to use (because of qwerty keypad) but the green tint on photos is Kinna annoying (sorted by f/w update?

i wouldn't know because dips**t here got a vodafone one

). with p1i you WILL have to use both the touchscreen and keypad!
the music is good (IMO) if you get a hpm-70 pair of headphones (the ones that come are sh**e)
EDIT:
then again, ive only had the phone since Friday

and the phone is on the BIG side compared to the Motorola pebl and k750i ive been using.
heres a pic comparing it to the pebl (taken with k750i)
it really depends what YOU want out of a phone.
oh and if your looking for battery life... the k750i is the phone for you
