If you download and zoom into the 5th picture it is definitely 5MPx. :(

It looks as if this thing has dual LED flash. Hopefully it's a dual xenon flash??

I don't see much to get excited over...
What happened to optical zoom, more megapixels, xenon flash, qwerty keyboard, bigger wide screen etc? Seems like another comparable device like the n82 rather than an upgrade. :(

The styling reminds me of an iPhone with a keyboard!

That is a bland bland bland phone.
Nokia needs to up its game if it is to keep up in this market.
It is quite clear that Apple will be drip feeding upgrades to the Iphone in terms of functionality and this phone will not cut it in the face of that sort of competition.
:rolleyes:

Totally agree!!! where is the big step-up??? looks like i won't be upgrading for a very long time!!!
I hope the upgrade to the N95 includes a toggle button which switches between camera, phone and gallery, a bit like the one on the new SE phone. The lens cover should be motorized too.

This really looks like the Iphone to me as well, i dont think it looks much different to that which they got out at the moment.
I think nokia like many other companies realize that most people are quite foolish so they will pay for new products although they dont really do much new things.
See the N95 8GB, well slightly larger screen, nice yes, i think thats it. The other functions are pretty much the same, no speed increase or better camera etc. The battery seems improved they say but i've heard otherwise.
Really is it worth the price ? No i think not,
The old N95 luckily got a firmware update which makes it quite similar, want the memory well i bought a 6GB memory for £30 works great.
N95 6GB Edition Upgrade = costs £30 (lets say £45 average)
What we need is the technology doing what it claims, we need more processor power to speed up the system, we need more memory (RAM & Storage), we need better battery power so the phone can do what it was designed to without running out of power
& finally we need nokia to make phones which does not have obvious design flaws physical & electrical.
Remember the old days, new phones were better, new useful features, improvements, longer battery life, better design, smaller, now their just phones we use for a year & need a new one. :mad:
