I have zee N93.
N95's look bloody sweet though!
I have the N91 and am very impressed with the range so far, but my contract is up in June and this model does tempt me.
However, you won't get it for free unless you pay over the odds on a tariff, but what can't be good about a phone that has a 5MP camera along with hundreds of other features and lots of memory. Well, there is always the battery which when utilised runs out quicker than Guiness on St Patricks day!
Other than that, great buy (Y)
the battery in my 6280 right now is ----, it runs out pretty god damn quick
They say that you can get 10-12 hours of music play out of my N91 but after the months, I'd be lucky to push 8 :s Which sucks. But it's the price you have to pay when you have a phone that could control a small nuclear missile :p

Most contracts will cost you £30 -£50 a month and then the handset will be £100 - £200.
If you want to buy it sim free the cheapest I could find it for was £450.

Yeah, my N93, I had to pay £50 for the handset, and then £30 a month, but that's a decent enough contract, like.
Only did it on Vodafone aswell, directly from them, they didn't sell it in any normal shops.
Probably why i've never seen anyone else with one.

N95 is a pretty impressive phone, too big for me and the battery life is a worry, not even a day i hear.
can u get this phone on pay as u go? i can only find it on contract..

PAYG it would be about £600 or more. So i doubt it. You could buy it SIm free, and get a free PAYG card, but that would be nearly £600.
Good phone, does it all, but not for me, as i dont need SAT NAv, an MP3 player, etc... I just use a phone with a good camera and a web browser. Dont need any more features

Yeah, you couldn't even get mine on PAYG when I looked.
Aha
PAYG's just aren't worth it imo.

With PAYG you pay for calls and the phone.
With contract you pay for one not the other, depends how you like to look at it

Well my new N95 came today and I am a very happy boy, it is so easy to use and is very impressive. I have a N70 (which will have to go on ebay now) which is a great phone but the N95 is very smart. the mapping is so quick and easy and accurate. The screen is huge and the camera takes some lovely pic's a lot better than my N70.
I am still playing with it but so far I am very happy and I would recommend it to anyone.
take a picture of it lets have a look :)

I am sending this from my N95 at my friends house, I have connected through the Wi-fi in the house. It is very easy to use and with the big screen it is easy to navigate. I will post some photo's tomorrow so you can see how good they are.

Can anyone direct me to a site where i can get a n95 and pay it on finance. Pay and go though
u know it cost like £600 on pay as u go?
Truplaya83
20/Apr/07, 01:32 PM
you cant get it on PAYG, or finance. You may get it on a 18 month contract for about £100
WACCOE
20/Apr/07, 01:50 PM
All new phones nowadays you can really only get 18month contracts.
Piss-take.
I had to take one, that or get a different phone.
Matt - who is your contract with for the N95?

Im on O2, 12 months contract 4tw! I got a free D900 and i only pay £9 a month line rental now, for 500 mins and 200 txts. I cant complain with that
WACCOE
20/Apr/07, 04:23 PM
O2 are a little slow at getting phones actually out though, from what i've heard.
Vodafone always seem to be the first.

Nice find, Lens.
They are going fairly cheap on eBay aswell, which is pretty suprising.
:]
HOW MUCH?
How can you seriously pay that much for a phone! I mean you can get a laptop which does everything that does , BETTER and more.
Or am I just the only one who would like to have a small slim (reasonable sized) phone that just makes good calls and has good calling features? :s
For the people that think I am flaming. I'm not saying that it's overpriced (I think it is though lol). I just think it's silly to be paying that kind of money for something which could easily get stolen or lost.
WACCOE

Which is why most companies give out 1 year free insuance with there phone.
Not only that, a phone with similar features to a laptop is more convenient, portable and designer.
That covers losing/stolen phone?
No but personally, having a expensive phone makes me guard it with my life. I've only ever lost one expensive phone and that was when it was in my car when it went to the garage. Lost? I guess not.

Yes.......

I have to agree with Tobez on this one, I mean DAMN that's a lot of money for a phone. Although we all have different needs and preferences, so you know no hard feelings or anything.
Personally all I need is my cheap phone (http://www.367net.com/images/mobilephone/Nokia-6061.gif) and my Zune.

My Friend has got a N95 on T-mobile.

it was a generalisation, each network has differnet deals with each manufacturer, like O2 got the Silver K800i, no other network did.
There's hundreds more examples, end of the day, pick the deal, network and phone that fits what you want best.
got my N95 today, was playing around with it and came across the bar code reader, wtf is that all about anybody else used that feature?
WACCOE
11/Sep/07, 10:22 PM
I have that on mine.
Don't geddit.
I've tried all sorts of barcodes, and not been able to pick anything up from it.
Let me know if you work it out.
