Ask any N95 questions - I'll do my best to answer. (NOTE: old thread.)

The N95 is equiped with QVGA screen, because of its larger screen size compared to for example the N93, isn' t the screen pixelatedt?

did you try and play any 3gp video playback how is the quality?

Can anyone confirm when the N95 will be available in UK? Is it available already? I was told mid March.......

Hi Rafe!
Please tell me can we quick forward or rewind a movie, or play with speed X2, X4 or X8 on N95 video player. Or can we skip to go and see some particular part of a movie. With my current Nokia 6681, if I upload a long movie clip, say half hour, from my PC, and if I want to see the last few minutes of that movie, then I have no choice to go straight to the last part. I have to see all the movie in one go. Is the same type of limitation there in N95 or it has been improved.

Hi All

Could anyone answer me the following couple of questions please:

1) Does the N95 have proper multiple alarm functionality with multiple alarms and allowing you to specify them to repeat only on weekdays / once per week etc, or is it the same as older S60s like my N70 with a single unconfigurable alarm? On my N70 I use a 3rd party alarm app which works quite well, but obviously it would be nice to have it built in.

2) Does the N95 have a password protected "safe" type application built in, to keep confidential information secure? i.e. something like Handy Safe which I currently have, but built in like most non Symbian Nokias have? Again the pricing on HandySafe (particularly for S60 3rd gen) seems to have risen considerably since I purchased it for the N70 :(

To update on the availablity, I contacted O2 and also a T-Mobile distributor today and both said availability from 1st week in April. Im glad Ive joined the N95 bandwagon quite late because waiting a month (fingers crossed) will be bad enough!!

cheers

Chris

I was watching "unboxing the N95" video on internet, don't remember the site, but what hurt me, and rather i was worried to see, is that when the man showed its CD, I saw Nokia N70 written on it which mean that CD of Nokia N70 is included in the N95 sales package. And next when he showed the manual book in the movie, it was of Nokia 6680. I don't know whether Nokia has included the CD of N70 and manual of 6680 in the sales package of N95. Can you tell me did you notice this while physically unboxing the N95?

[pseudofinn]

Odd that the 6680 manual would be included in the N95 pre-production package, but I assume the N70 cd was sent because the PC software is the same, or not very different than what will be shipped with the N95... but to assume that these items will be in the sales package of the N95 is a little silly.


BTW- Unboxing the N95 was a Steve Garfield video. Thanks and credit go to him. He mentioned on 1/27 that he had later been sent an N95 manual. I assume neither the N95 manual or CD were printed yet.

[lecutis]

I saw this mentioned in the tech specs on the nokia website, does anyone know what is meant by it?

I am looking to move to a symbian device and the N95 looks perfect but I use Exchange Active sync on my current device all the time and could not work without it, I see that Nokia provides Mail for Exchange for E series devices but have read that it does not work on the N series.

[capitaine]

It means you can update the firmware over the air... no need for Nokia Software Updater via pc!

[nj7]

Active Sync is not for firmware upgrade...

Hello,
I´m from Czech Republic, so please forgive my english, I don´t use it frequently...

I´m quite decided to buy N95 because of its functions. I´ve read a few forums in czech, but there are no people with REAL experiences of using the phone.

So I´ll be glad if someone could answer me some questions, which I didn´t find anywhere where I searched. So:

1) GPS: I found some photos and videos about "how it works", and there are only 2D views of maps. I´ve read that N95 can show 3D perspective, like single GPS modules.

2) DRM - I don´t mean to download music or video from internet (using N95), but I´d like to know if the phone will allow me to play or share MP3s or video files from my PC (which are not protected by DRM, indeed ) without any complications...

3) I´ve noticed that there is a memory card included in the package. How is capacity of it?


Thanks, have a nice day...
Alex

1. Yes, is also 3D. If you have another S60v3 device you can try already, with Smart2Go software.

2. Yes, like others also.

3. Depends from region of sell - could be without card or with another size. But don´t expect anything special...

[CameronM]

Quick question....I live in New Zealand. Yes, down the bottom of the globe Any ideas when this phone will be reaching our shelves?

[sobrique]

Fairly simple question, I'm considering getting hold of one of those lovely laser keyboards. I was just wondering if such would work with one of these, and ... well more generally if there's much point.

[Zmurphen]

Hello

I wonder if you can use the flash LED as a flashlight?

(I currently use my k750i as a flashlight where the led can be active for as long as you want)
