The Nokia N95 unboxed, previewed and demo-ed!

[slitchfield]

OK, listen up. Rafe's been trying out the brand, spanking new Nokia N95 über-converged smartphone. In his comprehensive preview, he unboxes it, photographs it, tests the 5 megapixel camera, writes about the hardware design and demonstrates many of its new software features in text and pictures.

Read on in the full article.

Hi,

Can you see if the builtin GPS works well with TomTom/Route66/other 3rd party GPS software?

Any chance of a sizea comparison to the E61?

Surely this is the beginning of the end for the separate camera?

Once even cheap phones come with a camera as good as this, why would any non-professional get a separate one?

I don't I've ever been this jealous.. I doubt I can resist for long, and will buy this the first trip I go on to Europe after it comes out there..

The N95 is going to be amazing! If your going to get one check out the N95 forums

How is the battery life?

N95 is the coolest device from Nokia in recent times with all-in-one category device and power packed features.

FYI, the 3.5mm audio jack is a multi-purpose port, not only for Audio but the same is used for TV-Out functionality as well !!

Is it already in shops?? What is the price tag?

They definitely MUST do something with color rendering and remove this awful PINK SHADE from the pictures!!!

hi there, sweet device you got there and great preview too. this thing is the stuff i dream about every night can't wait to get one.
i am just curious about that headset adapter. the pictures do not show the pin connection clearly and i have been racking my brain as to how the microphone and other functions on that remote works. my question is how many connection points are on that adapter on the 3.5mm end that goes into the phone??

Just like to ask whether the LCD screen is protected by a hard plastic cover.

"Just like to ask whether the LCD screen is protected by a hard plastic cover."

Aren't all phone LCDs protected by a hard plastic cover? I've never seen an exposed screen on any portable device.

How easy is it to use the multimedia keys to change music tracks while doing something else on the device? Does sliding them out always change orientation and open music player? If this is the case isn't this a real bother if all i want to do is change tracks. Also isn't it hard to use music player if i can't access keypad to search songs?

Can you use N95 as an external bluetooth GPS reveicer? This would be great if you use a navigation software on your laptop/tablet/whatever..

Thanks for this exclusive preview.

I'm really looking forward to see a video comparison between N93 & N95.
