Review: This phone is useless. My first one lasted 3 months before developing 2 serious faults & the second one lasted only five days before developing a serious fault. anybody thinking of getting one don't bother. Carphone Warehouse are fed up with people returning them ( i've returned 2 ) & Orange don't even sell it.
Pros: Camera
Cons: Unreliable
Score: 2/10

Review: Having had a N95 for over 3 week I can state the following. Battery life is dire to say the least, 24 hours as a phone 1get a /2 - 4 hours using it as Camcorder, GPS, Music player etc. Video recording is top notch for a phone as is the camera if you can live with the delay when taking pictures. Music sounds good tho not in the same league as SE's phones and the GPS is OK but again no Tomtom. Get the N95 if you live in the UK from O2 and you get a 1GB micro SD card with UK maps included that only take up about 90mb of space so plenty of space for your pictures and music. The bad news, and it is VERY bad news, is the handset is buggy as hell. I haven't had 1 day with it where I have not pulled the battery out to reset the unit, software stops working, phone calls get cut off and the unit resets itself when it feels like it but hopefully future firmware updates will solve this.
Pros: Great camera (for a phone)

All in one GPS solution

Cuts down on all the gadgets needed to be carried around
Cons: As Said before, Jack of all trades - master of none

Battery life is a joke

Firmware bugged to hell at the moment
