An Overview of the Nokia N96

The new Nokia N96 is a smart phone from Nokia which is designed as the upgrade from the N95. The N96 is very similar to the N95 and actually offers exactly the same specs except that the phone has a massive 16GB of internal memory rather than the old 4 or 8GB. The phone also has a new operating system and you don’t have to purchase maps for the GPS anymore – you can download them for free. The software still isn’t 100% reliable but the phone does have a newer version of Symbian and this seems to fix a few of the previous problems.
I’ve read some Nokia N96 reviews and they seem to suggest that the phone isn’t much of an improvement from the N95. There are a couple of differences, including larger memory and the GPS system allowing the download of free maps. The phone also has a new style to it and is much smoother and curvier than the N95. Personally I prefer the design of the N96 when compared to the predecessor. The keypad is also an improvement and isn’t as hard to use as on the N95.
I’ve seen a lot of Nokia N96 deals available which make this phone a little more affordable for people on a budget but it is still a lot more expensive than the N95 and I’m not really sure why. The Nokia N96 contract phone is an ok upgrade from the N95 but to be honest you’re not getting much more and the battery life is worse than on the N95. The Nokia N96 video review that I found will be able to show you the phone in a lot more detail than I can explain. Overall, the Nokia N96 is a good phone and I think it’s worth the purchase.
