as u have mentioned about n81's speakers can u just tell us about the speakers audio output(loudness,bass)?

Rafe Its touch sensitive. As you move your finger around the metal rim it scrolls. There is no moving mechanism. I imagine it detects conductivity or something like that.

One device I tried worked very well, the other one (I think Steve used) was not so good. Its handy when scrolling through long lists (e.g. music).

krisse Right... I've seen the naviwheel in action on a video, but I still don't quite get it... how does a square d-pad rotate without rotating? (You have to see the video to get what I mean.)

hargs48 Thanks for the screenshots Steve,but I still cant belive it ~90mb free RAM for the N95 8GB,its just unheard of and also ~44mb free RAM out of the total 96mb RAM for the N81.Seems like Nokia is finally waking up with the low RAM issue,first the E90,then N76 and now these 2 new beauties...

What are your thoughts on that and do you really notice a difference between the 2 or the Nokia N80?
You will notice a difference from the N80. Between the two N95's it is much harder to see.

In fact, every where you can use "left, right, up, down" presses to navigate, the navi wheel function should also be an available option aswell. Its the nearest thing to a touch interface right now.


Great reporting Steve, Rafe and co. You have earned a well deserved rest.
A lot more to come after the weekend.

Screen Size and Resolution

There has been some debate over the sceen size and resolution with the N95 8GB and the N95 both being QVGA.

What are your thoughts on that and do you really notice a difference between the 2 or the Nokia N80?

Al3xandr3 Have you noticed that the interface in the N95 8Gb is slightly different?

Watch the "menu" part in the photo with the other N85 and N81. Since the screen is bigger, there's more space. I wonder if they could put in more lines at the same time....

slitchfield Ahem. Sorry, I forgot to try the demo games. Oops. In my defense, while I was taking the screens you did see, I was on a rocking river boat, juggling 3 devices and a mobile charger and knowing I didn't have long with either device.....

Doubtless Krisse will cover the demo games fairly soon over on AAN.

Unregistered is not possible to have the nokia ngage demo application?

krisse How exactly does it work? I saw "navi wheel" on the specs but I can't really tell how it functions from the photos.
30-08-2007 04:32 PM
slitchfield It works, but it's not that responsive. Yet. Remember we were dealing with prototypes here. So we're cutting the devices some slack until we see something near production.

krisse "Can you comment on the navi wheel? How does it work, does it work well etc?"

Ooops, my mistake, ignore what I posted before! :-)

The N81 does indeed have a naviwheel.

Unregistered Can you comment on the navi wheel? How does it work, does it work well etc?

Thanks!
