The two deal-breakers for me (from
C·Net):
Now, here's the bad news: the N95 does not work on the U.S. 3G networks. There's support for Europe's HSDPA/WCDMA 2100 band, but not for the U.S. HSDPA bands, so we're left with just regular 'ol EDGE speeds. Granted, we've been a bit spoiled after getting a taste for 3G, but for such a high-end and advanced phone as the N95, 3G support would have been huge.
On top of all that, Nokia has also packed a GPS receiver into the N95, along with a mapping application.... However, to get any kind of turn-by-turn directions, you'll have to download an upgrade to the device that costs an additional $91.93 for a one-year license or $11.81 for a month.

I haven't subscribed but I can get turn by turn directions listed for a route, but I understand that its only if you want them announced while en-route thay you need to subscribe

I may as well get a Garmin Nuvi 360 or TomTom One - no subscription required!

it depends on what you want really. I use a Garmin nuvi 670 but I don't always have it with me so I can see that one day I'll be happy to have a GPS available in my phone. At the moment its just a novelty.
I went outside earlier and got a lock in my current position in Sydney. Took exactly 6 minutes 10 seconds to lock on and about 20 seconds to download the local maps via wifi

Is the alarm clock the same crap that on others S60 phones? (Only one alarm and no repetition?)
And what about this quote from mobile-review?: "Regrettably, Nokia N95 puts up average sound quality, aimed at unsophisticated users. "
Is the sound quality on n95 far behind from a SE uiq3 phone?

My bill was £75 this month and my line rental is £17.50 per month so I stop using the gprs on o2 now. Have to wait for their new data plan coming out and switch to that!
