I think its fair to say the n95 is i huge step up in terms of features on a phone but with the exception of the camera most of the features dont work well or impress as you would have been expected to.build quality, ram, battery are just some of the shortcomings this phone has.its a shame that nokia couldnt address these things after the n93.

Hi Bavlondon2,
I really don't understand what was wrong with your N93 but mine the only problem i had was less than perfect pictures in low light otherwise everything else it did perfectly well at the minimum. Both you and Super Chimp's experiences are so far removed from my experience you may as well be talking about a different device.
Trust me a I am very critical of devices especially if they fail to deliver and whilst i will accept a few minor niggles on a new device I also expect them to be resolved quickly. After the 2nd update i didn't need anything else fixing i accepted still photography had it's limitations as does Ram and used a Task Manager that was it. I didn't expect or need anything else to be done. For me to stick to a device for 9months is quite rare and i wouldn't of upgraded to either the N93i or N95.
As for me they really didn't offer anything new or exciting the only reason i sold it was the camera and video recording was not getting enough use and i fancied a smaller device with a good qwerty which the E61 has given, besides the camera being missing it does all my N93 did but with a much bigger and better screen and an even bigger battery and although a smaller processor still the same speed.

you've already twisted your post.....this is not what the initial issue was...
you're pretty much blaming the person cause they tried to edit a video on his n95.. and cause it didn't work you assumed they didn't know how to use it
he did not say it was slow... he said it didn't work...cause it got a memory issue
This is not what I am saying at all. What I am saying is that it is beyond the capability of N95 to have many tasks opened and do video editing editing at the same time just like it is beyond the capability of 166MHz PC to rip a dvd in a reasonable time.
If a person cannot understand these limitation of the phone why blame the phone? This limitation is already made known in manual (if the person were to look) and by the phone itself when it throws out the "Memory Full. Please close some application".
Like I said, all gadget/machine are designed with limitations. For example, no right minded person will believe that a car will not flip over when taking a 90 degree turn at 100mph. But if the person still take the turn at that speed and wrecks the car, I think no insurance company will entertain his claim that it is the car fault.

Sorry if my opinion of the n93 sounded bad. I actually think that was more solid than the n95. Hoe can i put it. I can handle my k800 with speed such that i can type fast and handle the phone with ease but with the n95 it just felt so fragile that i had to concentrate when doing things as I thought the phone would snap in my hands. Also i dont like how the screen isnt covered by a housing unit and is completley exposed.
Get one and see for yourself you can return within 7 days right? A lot of people back up the n95 on here but most i see dont even have an n95 so they cant make those claims. I have had one and that it my personal opinions.

Bottom line is, in my eyes, that if your not going to use most of the features most of the time, then there are better, cheaper phones out there that focus on one or several of the things you want to use it for.
Jack of all trades, master of none
Thats what I always tell customers to put them off it (due to lack of stock), we have old guys and young teenagers with their mum's come in, all looking for it cause it's the 'newest coolest phone to have' even tho they look at you and say "Wi-What?.....What-Fi?" lol.

For someone who claim to own a N95 and yet cannot even get the facts right (like N95 screen is 16m colors) about N95 but still have the face to go around accusing "most" of making false claim of owning one.

I was being sarcastic. How would one see a screen and know its 16mil colours?
