N95 Is this a good phone?

I'm about to get an N95 as my new phone and I want to know is it good, or are there any problems that I should be aware of.
Thanks

N95-1(classic)
if you can get your phone updated to version 21 firmware i dont think youll have any problems as it works seamlessly on this version
as for battery life i am a HEAVY user. music nearly all day lots of wifi interet browsing calls and texts
the battery lasts me til early morning the next day before i have to charge it....
what im trying to say the battery life depends alot on your usage.
with the v21 fw the classic n95 battery life is comparable to that of the 8GB version so it wont make much of a difference battery wise
secondly is 8GB enough for you? as the classic n95 can accept an 8GB card and will/should be able to accept up to 32GB cards in the future(16gb cards are on the way) so if youre like me who loves to watch movies while travellng may not 8gb will be enough
lastly camera cover...the 8GB version has no lens cover whereas the classic does....
in my opinion the classic n95 is the better of the choices unless you are willing to wait for the n96 release whenever that is......

  • Kin onem- daughter wants -is this a good phone?

    Hi, I am a first time user so please be patient. My daughter has a Samsung Intensity and now wants to upgrade to a Kin Onem. I, however, am technically stupid. Is this a good phone to get? I believe she wants a decent camera,touchscreen and maybe internet. I heard she could get this option for free on this phone.
    She gets Itunes a lot, texts a lot and does take pictures. I think the internet is the main factor this time....Is there a better one (phone) or another one with free service or is this a good choice for her? Also, do you know if you can purchase this phone in the store or do you have to order it and have it shipped in? I also read you have to enter all your contacts.Is this true?
    What are the pluses and minuses for this phone in "simple" English! Thanks.

    Yes, this is a good phone. That is the short and easy answer. I am assuming you are looking for a phone that does not require a data plan (that costs extra). Other smartphones are MUCH better, but require that data plan, so if you do get data, do not get this phone. Get and android, windows 7 phone, blackberry, etc. But this is the ONLY phone w/out data.
    Like said above, i would recommend the Twom over the Onem, simply because it has the larger screen, more memory, better camera, etc. But, that is all personal preference, if your daughter would rather have a squarish, smaller phone, then the Kin Onem is better suited.. My personal flavor is, i like the longer, rectangular phone shape, i am much more familiar with it, and it fits the hand better. The Kin Onem is $20, and the Twom is $50 with a new line/plan/contract, but for a one-time charge, that really isn't that much and is worth it in my opinion (and if you qualify for the 'new every two', you get $100 towards a single phone, that is how i got one of these for free).
    This phone is sold in stores, but they do not have them out on the 'floor' in most, if not all stores. I only imagine that it is sold in actual verizon stores, not resellers such as bestbuy, mall stands, etc. I got mine in stores last week, but i had to ask them specifically for what i wanted. They had a test device, but they had to charge it up int he back room before i could play with it. Many believe that they are just trying to clear out their inventory of devices from the first time around, when they sold less than 60,000 devices, but i think they have alternative plans too. I hope they are seeing if they sell or not (and if more people knew about a non-data phone with wifi, they would sell like crazy in my opinion), and if they do, then they will re-start production of hte phone, market it, and most importantly, add support for the software/firmware and provide updates to fix its problems.
    You heard right, this phone does not support backup assist at the moment (transferring contacts application from verizon). However, some (it should be all in the near future) stores have recieved system updates that allow them to transfer contacts with a hard-wire connection from your old phone to the new Kin, you would just have to ask your local store if they have recieved the update. I have learned, be very specific when talking to sales reps, know what you want, sound confident, and then they will help you. Most sales reps do not know all the details, but what do you expect, their main job is to sell phones (although it would actually boost their numbers if they made sure all employees provided good customer support..hint verizon). At worst, they will have to contact their manager/supervisor and they will hopefully be more helpful.
    Long story short, this phone has wonderful features.
    -8 MP camera
    -720p HD video
    -very responsive, well built capacitive touchscreen
    -full QWERTY keyboard
    -full Zune music/video player
    -FM radio
    -and most importantly, Wifi
    You will have to manually block data if you do not want any charges appearing, but that is not too hard, and it saves any headaches of a ridiculous phone bill (without a data plan, you by default sign up for a pay-per-use plan, at a ridiculous $1.99 per MB rate..thats about $2 per webpage browsed). That is explained in my review/FAQ (linked below). This phone was originally released at the beginning of the summer as a smartphone, with an emphasis on social networking, and it failed miserably, so Microsoft/verizon have rebuilt its software and released it as a feature phone.
    The physical quality of this phone isn't top notch, but it is relatively sturdy. The front portion of the phone, the touchscreen, is built very well, with high-quality plastic that does not feel like it will break, even with a few accidental drops. The back (battery cover), however, does feel weak, and is made from a slippery, thin plastic. That is nothing that a case can't fix, though, and they sell for as low as $4 ($1+ $3 shipping..so if you do order online, purchase screen protectors and other things all at once, because the shipping costs much more than the actual case).  The phone hinge is decent, it has a quality-spring action to it, but there is a little wobble in the hinge (although the spring almost completely covers that up). The keyboard keys are 'clicky', and responsive, it has a quick repeat time on keys, which i really like.
    The biggest issue with this phone is not the actual phone, it is the abundance of firmware bugs/poor design and quality check before it was released. It all depends on if your daughter will be bugged enough to not like this phone, despite its awesome features.  I am hopeful that microsoft will release firmware updates to fix these issues, but if not, many of them have work-arounds and aren't that big of a deal anyways. So, yes it does have those problems that you see other people talking about, but they are very minor compared to how nice of features you get with the phone. Some of the major bugs/poor software quality include:
    -backup assist (transferring contacts) does not work
    -no forwarding messages
    -can't delete individual messages
    -volume buttons don't lock when phone is locked
    -can't delete or rename ringtones
    -etc.
    I have created a more detailed, albeit VERY long, full review of the device, its quirks, pro's, and fixes/workarounds. If you have time for some heavy reading, or want more information, here it is:
    http://community.vzw.com/t5/KIN/Kin-TwoM-Review-FAQ-Q-amp-A-troubleshooting-etc/td-p/347662
    I hope you find the best device for your daughter. I can provide my opinions, and i love this phone, but get the phone that she would like the most.

  • IS N95 NORMAL EDITION A GOOD PHONE?

    HEY GUYS please let me know the N95 is good one?i dont want the 8gb.i dont like something there's no memory card..i prefer N95 THE FIRST one.i want o get it..or do you think N81 WORKS better than N95..?what is firmware V20 for the N95 ALL TALKING ABOUT?THANK YOU

    It's a great phone. Really the differences between the 8Gb version and the standard one are mostly cosmetic. You can get an 8Gb SDHC memory card for the standard N95 so the only benefit for the 8Gb version is the (Slightly!) larger screen and the increased RAM which doesn't make much of a difference to 99% of people.
    The latest v20.x firmware have made many improvements to the phone and made it work much more reliably and effieciently.
    The only issue I have at the moment (Which affects the 8Gb version as well so it's a moot point as far as you are concerned) is that Nokia have still not come back to their senses and returned the "Track as you move" feature for the GPS that they removed with a previous release of the firmware. Quite why they thought removing this most basic of basic GPS features would make more people buy a navigation license is beyond me but it's something I feel needs to be addressed.
    Other than that small problem I think whichever version you get your going to be very impressed with your new device.

  • The Fascinate is not as bad as people say/Actually a good phone

    Greetings.
    First of all...if the Bing search and GPS are really important to you..then this phone is probably not for you.  If its not a deal breaker..go ahead and read on.
    I realize these days all phones will have their glitches but IMO the Fascinate is a pretty good phone.  Im a new Android OS user.  For a long while I had a Blackberry Storm.  I recently owned a Droid X and let me tell you I will never go back.  The Droid X, IMO, is a horrible phone. 
    I used a Droid X for approximately 2 months and I was quick to use a buddy upgrade to use something else.  If you take a look at the Droid X's support board I had many of the problems reported.  The major problems I had were
    1. Bad picture quality
    2. Speaker/Music Volume
    3. Unexpected freezing
    4. Phone is too big
    1. Pictures taken with the Droid X came out blurry 90% of the time.  It doesnt matter what MP I had it on or what kind of effect/setting.  It would always come out blurry.  Some people had good quality on pictures but I was one of the many that didnt.
    2. I cant tell you how many missed calls/text's I had because of the horrid volume on the X.  It was truely ridiculous.
    3. From time to time using swype texting..the phone would freeze and have to reboot.
    4. I guess this problem is on me cause I had the phone in my hand at the store but you truely dont know what a inconvenience it is to have this phone in your pocket.  You almost cant sit comfortably and in my case the phone would often fall out of my pocket at times.
    I have used the Fascinate for about 3 days now and I'd have to say I like it.  First off you cant fade the Amoled screen.  Pictures and colors are amazing.  Once you have a phone with this type of screen its hard to go back to something else.  I turned on my X to get a few numbers from there and its truely no comparison.  Pictures are in great quality and so is the video.  The flash is pretty good as well.  And how about this..I can actually hear when I have a phone call.
    Funny isnt being able to hear a call and picture quality supposed to be given these days for smartphones? lol Not on the Droid X.
    The problems that come up with this phone is the bing search/no google navigate.  Well bing doesnt doesnt bother me one bit.  I made a google search short cut so that takes care of that.  you can download google maps and still get to navigation by going through a few prompts.  no big deal on my part.  Only thing that is a little bother is that there is no side button to press to take a picture.  you have to hit the camera icon on the screen.
    of course the final decision will depend on you but if you are in flux about a phone I'd recommend the fascinate.  I personally havent used this phone but I only hear good things about the incredible also.  My cousin has the Droid 2 which looks alright.  All 3 are a huge step up from the Droid X.   

    (I was trying to figure out why I wandered into this particular forum as I have no interest in this phone whatsoever, but maybe it will prove beneficial...)

    It's WORLDS better.  No joke.  I have my Droid X collecting dust in my cabinet.  The speaker volume was my BIGGEST probem too and let me tell you you will not have that problem with this phone.  Once you use this phone you then realize how overrated the droid x really is
    If you would like to sell your Droid X, I'll make an offer via Private Message.
    The biggest reason is that I want to compare it side-by-side to the Droid X I own. Because the Droid X I own has absolutely no bearing to the phone you are describing. Plus I've had good luck returning ill Moto phones to Motorola for repair. So what the hell...
    I'm dead serious. Send me a private message if interested. Really, why let an unused phone sit in your closet gathering dust when you could profit from it.....

  • What's a good phone that will sync with iCal?

    I'm in the market for a new phone, but have absolutely no desire to switch to AT&T, so the iPhone is out. (Sob!)
    I really want to be able to sync with iCal, with support for alarms so I don't forget stuff. (I also want to sync with Address Book.) Can anyone recommend a good phone that's fairly compact for this?
    Thanks in advance!

    Have a look at any of the Sony Ericsson models - there are dozens of them to choose from and all (non-Smartphones) sync perfectly with the Mac.
    iCal events plus To Dos will sync to the phone, and if a reminder alarm is set in iCal, the phone will remind you at your chosen interval before the event is due.

  • Upgrading from iphone 4s, is the 5c good phone

    i have a iphone 4s as my current phone but want to get a iphone again cant afford to much is the iphone 5c a good phone and is that phone going to be around for many years still

    At the rate Apple has released new models they will be out of date before the end of this year or early next.  Best get used to the idea that you will never keep up. Learn to enjoy what you have, not what you covet.

  • Is E52 a good phone?

    Hi I see a good price in the nokia E52 and I wish guys to tell me is it a good phone to use and is there any kind of factory defect in software and Bluetooth and wlan please tell me every thing about this phone even if the problem is small tell me please guys .

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have had an E52 for 5 months and have had no problems with it at all, so can't tell you of anything wrong with it. Maybe most other users are the same so that is why you are not getting any responses :-)?
    At first the GPS was slow to get a fix but with later updates is now fine. Also early on with a Windows 7 64 bit computer had a few minor issues with Ovi but they have gone with the Ovi updates - the only phone<=>computer issue I have now is that Windows Explorer does not does not see the phone's expansion card over bluetooth. It works fine with USB cable though so not a real problem and I suspect the bluetooth issue is a Win 7 64 bit driver not existing (it works ok under Windows XP 32 bit). All other bluetooth e.g. internet, modem, etc works fine.
    Messaging including predictive text, radio, navigation, email (POP with two accounts), data, modem, voice services including A2DP profile (for handsfree navigation, music, radio sound), etc, etc all work fine for me. The camera is not great but if one wants a good camera one should buy a camera. About the only thing I do not use the phone for is VOIP services so cannot comment there.
    Build quality seems ok to me for the price of the phone. Some people complain about light bleed through on the keyboard in particular the bright LED between the Home and Off Hook keys but I actually thought that was a feature for use in low light as it gives a strong point of reference to the location of these two keys (as far as I remember my daughter's E72 is the same which would infer it is a feature).
    Both my daughter and myself were replacing our phones at the same time and both tossed up between the E72 and the E52 - she got the E72 and I the E52. If one does a lot of SMS or emailing from the phone (or use the Office applications) then the E72 is probably the better fit else the E52 is fine. The E52 does have a bigger screen though.
    Am not claiming it is the best phone in the world but I have no reason to be displeased with the choice. Judging from this forum some seem to have problems with them but I guess with the many thousands of phones out there, there are going to be some with issues - however, from the emotive rants from some of the complainers I suspect a goodly number of them have problems with much in their in lives, have finger trouble or don't understand what they are doing  (e.g. those complaining about the phone when it is their car's handsfree not supporting the A2DP profile, as many do not, that is their real problem) :-) . Like anything, I'd just suggest buying the phone off a supplier you trust to respond in the unlikely event of problems.

  • Is Nokia 2730 classic a good phone to buy

    is Nokia 2730 classic a good phone to buy and does it have and defect or bluetooth problems
    phones i have 2730c - C1
    KUDOS ME IF YOU FIND MY ANSWERS HELP FULL

    The 2730 doesn't seem as 'advanced' as the X6, which I believe you were asking about the other day.  If you want to store music or lots of phots on your phone, the X6 wins hands down, having 32GB of storage, where the 2730 can only takre a 2GB card.  You can compare the specifications for the phone on your local Nokia website, if you haven't already done that.
    Afraid I don't really know first hand about any problems with the 2730 Classic, though there are a few posts on this board which refer to such problems.  But, as others here so often caution, people come to this board because they have problems, and many of those problems are as a result of user mistakes, so any comments here need to be put in to perspective.  If the specs of the phone look like the sort of thing you want, it would be worth further research on other sites.

  • Where can I find one of those silicone body covers (not hardshell) for the Mac Book Pro? And is this a good idea?

    Where can I find one of those soft silicone body covers (not hardshell) for the Mac Book Pro? And is this a good idea since Apple no longer makes them? I-phones use them now.

    Personally I use the Speck hard case on both of my MacBooks and they are the greates! Look around on Amazon and eBay and you can find them for $30-40. I wouldn't really recomend a silicon case for a macbook, but it's your preference.

    It the same phone but you don't have to have data on it if you don't want since they are older phones.  We had these phones without data as I didn't think they would be good for surfing the net compared to a smart phone.  Mary

  • Nokia n86 a good phone??

    ok, my phone got stolen recently so im looking to get a new one for christmas..i had the 5800 and loved it,but i wouldnt want to get another one on xmas day - it just wouldnt be the same lol. so, im looking into phones, the max ill spend is 350 -whats the besty phone i can get for that price?
    i want a phone thats loud, like the 5800 and is generally easy to manage.
    i dont want one that slides into a keyboard - too awkward!!
    i was lookin at the Nokia N86, it says it has integrated speakers..is it a good phone?
    please give me suggestions, i need a new good phone ..
    thanks

    The N86 is a tad bit smaller than N96 and the thickness of the N86 is tad smaller than N96 aswell but the N86 is a little bit heavy from N96.
    Sound of the speakers arent really low like the 5310. N86 speakers are decent and has good quality sound but not loud as N96, N95, 5800. Lets just say N86 volume output is a tad bit quiter than 5800. 5800 speakers are louder than N86.
    Either phone you wont regret N86 or 5800XM but id go for N86 due to the 8MP Camera, FM Transmitter, AMOLED screen which is really good. Battery life on N86 is awesome

    I have a 16GB iPhone 3GS. Tried synching my phone through iTunes (11.0.1 I think... on a 2009 Macbook Pro). Now when I connect to iTunes, it says it does not recognise the content on my phone. Is this because my phone (and laptop) are too old?
    Also, when I tried to Restore the settings, an Error Message pops up that says " The iPhone software update server could not be contacted. The requested resource was not found.
    I'm trying to free up space on my phone by removing [literally] thousands of old photos which were originally synched to the phone, because I had forgotten to uncheck the photos button when I synched it ages ago.
    I have also tried synching it on my 24" iMac (running OSX Snow Leopard). But again, when I try restoring the phone through itunes, it says the file is corrupted. It sggests unplugging the device, and then plugging it in again. I have done this numerous times with no success.
    I'm guessing it must be because my phone (and versions of iTunes, and OSX) are all too old.
    Please can anybody help.

  • Please make this a good experiance for my first post on any board.  READ ME

    Hi all. Well first off, let me start by saying that my whole life I've owned PC's. And I'm not hacker Elliet. But I've gotten to know them pretty well. All the way from Windows 3.1 that came out a long time ago (more than 10 years ago)
    So after a while of hearing about MAC's I decided to start small and get an iPod (since they are so popular here in NYC) and see what apple was about. Well I really saw that Apple had a great product and started asking about their computers. And did plenty of research. And before the new Intel Macs came out, I was going to get a powerbook. But I had a feeling a new laptop was coming out and waited a lil while and sure enough. The Macbook Pro came out. So I went out and did all my research (as to this being the first real purchase of a Apple product and knew about the possible implications of a new first gen Intel chip in a apple product litterally making history) I knew I might become a new beta tester.
    So I started looking on these boards and did 2 weeks worth of hard research to see if the Mac Book Pro (MBP) was for me. And after all the problems i saw (ex: The whine, Right speaker distortion, heat coming from it, white line at bottom of screen, etc) I never saw or read anything about AOL connectivity problems. And I know, I know... alot of you are probably going to gripe and complain about AOL sucking and yada yada yada, but please. Cut me some slack. I actually like AOL. I got on it back in 92 when it came out, and really enjoyed it. And have been on it since. I like chatting on there, and so forth. And I hope you help with my problem instead of telling me to go get "a real ISP" I do have a real ISP, but I like my AOL too.
    So now to my problem....
    I have a Sony Viao 1.8ghz PC with 512 ram, 80 gig hard drive, 10/100 ethernet port. Connected to a Belkin Router (more info below on specs of router) connected to Opt Online Broadband Cable internet with VoIP. I use my macbook pro on the wireless network at my home.
    I got a mac book pro 1.83 ghz running 512 ram on Tiger OSX 10.4.6 I thought that I would wait till a connectivity patch (which I thought would have been 10.4.6) fix the airport problems came out till I posted something. But now that I've tried everything, I'm hoping you open this thread and help me and possibly someone else out there as well. I just d/l'd and installed the 10.4.6 update last night and it did'nt help. So here's more info on my specs. I have a belkin router wireless G 2.4 ghz 54mbs router and I have configured the router with it's firewall, wap2 encryption (as it's the only selection the router has that is available that matches what airport comes with in encryption) I hid my network, and have tried to upgrade the firmware on the router.
    Now Here's the real problem. I can connect to AOL on my MBP when I connect the actual ethernet cable to the MBP's Ethernet port (after I have let the cable modem do a hard reset to configure itself to a mac) I can connect to AOL. But when I disconnect the cable and return it to it's normal config, I can't connect to AOL. I can connect to the internet via safari, and firefox, and even AOL's IM on iChat. I can use Itunes all kinds of things. I can even play warcraft 3 wirelessly on battlenet. But connecting to AOL is a pain in the @$$. It's the only proggy I have that won't allow it to connect. I keep getting the error message "Your AOL connection ended because the AOL host was unable to start a new session. Please try to sign on again." Of course All i see for a while is the spinning black and white circle. And it goes through step 1 and 2, goes straight to 6. Then it goes blank, and BAM! That message pops up. And what's so frustrating is that I've tried every possible configuration on AOL, my router and even system preferences, for it to let connect. I even went into system preferences on the mac and went down the the Internet & Network "Sharing" icon and tried 100 possible combinations on that in the services tab, and firewall tab. I've turned them on, off, tried to make exceptions ETC. And no matter how much I play with the personal file sharing and windows sharing advanced settings and sigh every possible combination to make AOL connect via wirelessly. And nothing. I then even tried to fix the connection under AOL in setup. I've gone through and selected TCP Script, Airport Script. Cable Script, And practically every script I can think of. And nothing. I even went on to AOL and downloaded thier alleged fix to wireless accessing AOL. And nothing. I've been searching all over google, AOL's website, and all over these discussion boards and no mention of anyone even having the same problem. But please, someone out there with their infinit knowledge of how Macs run and having more experience than me, Please make this a good experiance for my first post on any board anywhere reguarding a mac. A MBP at that too.
    An update to this, But amazingly enough, I actually got it to connect to AOL wirelessly for the first time yest. But I have no Idea how i did it. I tried for 3 hours to reproduce it and no luck. I was accessing my router at it's website config screen and somehow I clicked on connect to AOL and while it was trying to connect to it, i reset the router and BAM, it connected to AOL. And I was in shock. I thought I solved it. Somewhere while it was reseting the router it connected and stayed connected to AOL till I signed off and tried to sign back on to see if I could now connect, and guess what. The same dumb message keeps popping up "Your AOL connection ended because the AOL host was unable to start a new session. Please try to sign on again." And all I did was sign off to test it, thinking I had fixed the problem. I tried for 3 hours like I stated above, and BAM got it connected to AOL wirelessly again (somehow while the router was resetting). And thinking I fixed it, or figured out the trick to getting it to work, signed off... I kissed aol goodbye again. And have been unable to reproduce the "glitch". SIGH Can someone out there please help me?
    I think I've made this message as detailed as possible, but please, can someone give me some constructive criticism on how to fix my AOL wireless connectivity problems. Do you know if it's my router? My MBP? AOL software? BTW, I got AOL software version 10.3.7 (Rev 4136.310 US) The latest version I D/L'ed from the AOL website. Anyone know If I should turn on or off some things such as personal fire sharing on, or firewall off or on? ANYTHING. Please. I've put alot of time into writing this post and making it as detailed as possible. And been having this problem for the past 3 weeks that I've had my MBP, and have waited long enough to use my AOL. If you need any further information or suggestions on making AOL work, please let me know. Thank you for taking the time to read all of this, and I really appreciate all of you in the time you take in responding back in trying to help me. I'll be monitoring this post almost hourly. So I hope someone out there can help. Thanks so much again. And help me make this transition to Mac a pleasant one knowing that there is a mac community out there willing to help a new mac client. Again, Many thanks

    I FIXED IT!
    FYI for the rest of you that might be having the same problem. DON'T USE A BELKIN ROUTER WITH AOL ON A MBP!!!!! It ***** wirelessly. or even hard connected, it won't connect. I went to best buy today, and got a refund on the belkin. I then went to J&R and got a D-Link router. And now it works perfect. I can now chat on AOL yet again, and I tried all the other web browsers I have and messengers, and warcraft 3 online via battlenet. And it works great. I want to give you guys a special thanks for taking time out to answer back to my post. FYI! Belkin wireless G routers do not connect you to AOL wirelessly on MBP's. No matter how much you mess around on them. I highly recommend a D-Link Router. They are easy to set up as long as you READ ( AND I MEAN IT!!!) read the instructions before you set anything up on it. Use the CD that it comes with, and you'll be good to go. Set it up and it works great Almost no dead zones in the house, and now I can use the MBP with all it's cababilities. Thanks people. I really appreciate it.
    P.S. I called belkin last night when i decided to get a refund on my router for today and when i talked to the tech, after puersuading him to tell me the truth. And stop BS'ing me, he broke down and admited that AOL does not work wirelessly on MBP's. So to make a long story short this time, There you go. And one last note, I'm very happy now with my d-link router. I honestly thought it would suck. Not being a brand name router or anything. But amazingly, it works like a brand name item! Again, many thanks all.
