N95 8gb
I've had my Nokia since January and I'm finding my screen keeps going blank.
Is this a fault with the 8GB?
It was working great then all of a sudden it went totally blank. I had to take out the battery, re-insert it and eventually it came back on. That was 5 days ago and it's still going blank.
Its as if theres a problem with the slide.
Anyone else having any problems?
Otherwise I love this phone.

it has been ages since N95 8GB's released..
but nevertheless it's still a wonderful phone even until now
i accidentally read this review:
http://www.intomobile.com/2007/11/30...-computer.html
which again lead to your review Steve, about N95 8GB being the best phone ever made..
impressive =D

Runs out of memory
This phone is not good. You can only use the Phone memory and not the 8 GB memory. You get about 750k of phone memory and this can be backed up to the 8GB but further backup overwrites the original backup. So you can only ever use less than 1 GB of the 8GB it claims to have.
To store music and video on the 8GB you have to upload it from your computer. The phone will not allow you to download over 1 GB via the phones wireless etc. If you are in to podcasts then this limitation is vital and crippling.
I listen to podcasts daily, record phone conversations, video and photos and I am not very happy that I can not use the full 8GB. I get messages that force me to delete treasured items so I can continue to use the phone.
I think the 8GB is misleading false advertising and I feel like writing to Nokia to demand my money back.

Good review.
I'm wondering if it was based on others' experience or you actually used one of these for more than a day? Why? Because I have a Nokia N95 8GB (NAM or N95-4 version). This is one of the worst phone I have ever had, and I had plenty.
Why? Because a phone is only good if you can use it and in this case he battery dies every day after barely using the phone - 1 hr talking. That's it, that's all it needs, an hour and it is dead. Since it is in a case it shuts off without me even noticing so I missed calls thanks to this overpriced calculator. I don't know maybe this is because of the fact that everything we got here in the US is cheap crap, no quality (clothing, cars, buildings..etc.) maybe only the NAM ver. is crap idk, but then there is the fact that no lens cover and the phone is a fingerprint magnet, slow, lugging software, takes several seconds just to start the phone from keylock. I click on contacts and takes 5 sec to start with only 20 ppl in it, btw I have the newest firmware. Called NOKIA USA and they said this phone has no auto rotate. A 500 USD (BestBuy sells it over 650) has no auto rotate in 2008. Bravo! It has 16mill color because there is absolutely no need for that, it has double slider because it is completely pointless but has no lens cover, slow, no auto rotate, the software is full w/ bugs, refuse to connect -no gw reply problem -, very expensive, browsing is a pain, gps slow, no card!, to transfer your content (pictures, music, movies..etc) you have to have a cable with you all the time, battery is only good for a day if barely use it, if you use the gps, wifi, and/or watching a 30 min movie you need to charge TWICE a day! I bought it because I belived in reviews like this one and can't stand the 2mp no AF crappy Iphone. They said this 95-4 is the king.. where? In ... (I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings) but unless you get it for free think twice or make sure you have a chance to return it before you commit to keep it.

N95 Series My Choice
Since the launching of the N95 models, I has been attracted to it until I finally own one and it really a fantastic phone. Almost all task can be done with it and the display is remarkable esspecially in the photos and video I taken. Surely this phone really step out among other models available.
Now with the launching of the new N95 8GB, I also able to own one and it also a remarkable phone esspecially with its big screen and stylish design. The only thing that might disappoint me is the lack of microSD slot and the shutter cover of the rear camera but the rest is awesome.
I my own personal opinion, the only device that might out stand this phone maybe the apple iPhone (maybe).

can we watch TV for free like??...
Its to great... to COOL, but all is not all new... OLD MENUS... OLD Themes... hope if half of 8GB memory is used it wont HANG... coz most of the NOkia Phones if 1/2 or 3/4 of the memory are used will HANG most of the time...
Hope we can watch TV in the cellphone just like China made phones that it only needs the antenna to scan channels available in the area then thats it I can already watch it to my phone without charges... If NOKIA is to Good why cant they make it... you need to fix it yet to your phone with the network provider if TV phone is available then it is also with CHARGES and it is charge per minute...

Well I am not convinced
Had Nokia phones for as long as I can remember. I bought the original N95 not long after it came out. I was totally awstruck but it did not last long. I am one of these 'heavy users' I suffered for many months and was constantly checking the nokia website to see if there were updates that would fix this. At this time I bought a spare battery from nokia for £25 which frankly is a rip off. I got more and more annoyed that nokia was not taking this issue seriously. Then out comes the N95-8Gb I looked at the specs and was not supprised in the least to notice that the battery had not been improved by nearly enough. I bought an 'unbranded' and probably explosive battery for my N95 and I rue the day it breaks. I can't imagine a better phone.
I'll stick with my N95 instead of N95-8gb because....
I'd have to buy another unbranded battery as they have not understood the scale of the problem. Done precious little to improve it.
I use an 8gb microsd and it means I can just pop it out put it in my laptop and voila in a minute or 2 I have copied a huge pile of mp3's (doing this by cable is SLOW, doing this with bluetooth is an overnight job) oh and I'll be able to grab one of those juicy 16gb ones in late autumn.
Ermmmm. Lens protector ? WHAT !! I got it nokia. The battery life joke was caused by those silly people who really enjoy taking pictures wasn't it. So you take away the lens cover so when after the first month the lens is scratched they will stop using it. cute trick.
In conclusion my disappointment with nokia is profound. I will not buy another phone from Nokia. Or it will be a cold day in hell before I do. The really crazy thing about it is I am in love with my pregnant n95(big battery bump) it never lets me down. Its a work horse and a really reliable one. The issue I guess is trust. Nokia let me down badly. Not by making an absolute dog of a phone but by making a really amazing one and not listening hard enough when it was failing in such a drastic way.

Nokia N95 8GB rules
I think that Nokia N95 8GB is the best mobile phone i have ever seen. Its technical characteristics are more then impressive. But one thing borders me, its to high price. It could be a little lower, but everything else is just fascinating.
