Nokia N95 - Martin's Quick Review
A Feature-Packed Powerhouse in a Sleek Design
The Nokia N95 is a masterclass in combining style with functionality. Its dual-sliding design and elegant plum-and-silver color scheme encapsulate a myriad of features in a compact form. Surprisingly lightweight at just 120g, the phone measures 99mm x 53mm x 21mm. Slide the phone downward to access the traditional keypad, or slide it upward for multimedia controls. The keypad is slightly elevated for easy typing, enhanced by a blue backlight for clear visibility. Its large, bright LCD screen boasts a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, offering great visibility even in direct sunlight, especially with the included screen protector.
Feature Highlights
The Nokia N95 truly stands out for its feature-packed capabilities, notably its GPS functionality. While mapping services are free to view, accessing them requires a GPRS/3G connection that incurs additional charges. The phone's interface poses slight challenges for navigation, and the volume can be insufficient at times.
Being the first phone with a five-megapixel camera, the N95 earns respect for its image quality and color reproduction, though night shots can be tricky despite a red-eye reduction flash. Features like autofocus, macro, portrait, sports, sequence, and burst modes, alongside manual controls for white balance and exposure, add to its versatility. It can also connect to web-based photo accounts like Flickr, Vox, and Lifeblog.
Multimedia Capabilities
The Nokia N95 excels as a multimedia device, supporting audio formats like MP3, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, WMA, and M4A, and video formats such as MPEG-4, H.264/AVC, H.263, 3GPP, and RealVideo. Although the bundled earphones are average, the 3.5mm headphone jack allows for better headphones. The multimedia keypad enhances user experience with intuitive controls. While video viewing is possible, the screen size is somewhat limiting.
A standout feature is the Video Centre, which acts as an RSS feeder for video content from sources like Reuters and YouTube, supporting downloads and streaming via Wi-Fi or data services. The device offers 160MB of internal memory, expandable with a microSD slot supporting up to 2GB cards.
Design and Performance Considerations
Despite its many features, the phone’s build quality is somewhat lacking. The sliding mechanism feels a bit loose, and the plastic doesn't quite match the premium price tag. Battery life is another downside, offering only up to 160 hours of talk time and 200 hours on standby. Heavy use of features like GPS or the camera drains the battery faster, especially on non-GSM networks.
Conclusion
If budget isn't a constraint, the Nokia N95 presents a feature-rich phone in a lightweight, stylish design. It's a commendable choice for those seeking functionality without compromising on style.
