Nokia N95 8GB selling Rm 3100+ at midvalley roadshow(zitron set).
N95 8 GB is definitely better in term of weigh, designed, performance(dual processor). The drawback is only the pricing. If the pricing factor is not a problem for u, then u might grab it now. It's gonna be a famous phone untill next year!!

Seriously... I'm considering to purchase either N95 (non-8GB) or N82 now, in S'pore.

N82 = ~S$900
N95 = ~S$800
* without lines, list price.

I prefer candy bar type, hence N82 is leading at the moment. What main features I'll use:
- Phone call tongue.gif
- SMS
- HSDPA/3G/EDGE/GPRS
- WiFi
- GPS

Things I don't like about N82
- Smaller screen than N95 & N95 8GB
- Small key pad
- Looks big and thick

Things I don't like about N95
- Slide
- Bigger screen = drain more battery juice ?

Camera is not a big deal to me, as long as auto-focus, macro shots, enough. *sigh*

These two phone would be hard to compare. Specs wise. Its about the same. Just the screen size and flash i think. I'll go for the N95 8GB though. Sliders are cooler and the screen size is great.

B4 you decide, test both phones in your hands, features such as calling and SMS. I discovered after playing with both phones that the 82 keypads are too small for my liking and doing fast SMS. If you can live without xenon flash for night shots, get the N95 8gb. I'll opt for that because it gives me 5mp, huge storage, stylish design, big screen and you can add accelerometer software to copy N82.

i would say n95 would be a better bet. 8gb and stylish formfactor make it hard to resist. and from n82 design, i would be happily put 8gb into my list rather than n82. and n82 felt abit plastic-ky.

i really like your ur answer ktcy. i would answer the same dang thing too.

N95 8gig will be better. Running with dual processor. Innovative design. larget screen. Sliding technology. Pretty than N82

N82 is newer than N95 8 gig abit. But n82 is the replacement set of N73 in my opinion.

If u do not like sliding(n95), go for n82.

Both are good phone, but n95 slightly better, but pricey than n82.

When I hold N82 and play around with it, I don't think it is that plastic actually (though had read many posts with the same complain tongue.gif ). Of course, for sure it is neither as metallic as models like 6500 classic.

For camera definately N82, but for total usage it must be N95.
Look at the hardware difference, i guess N9X hardware is always better than N8x/N7x.

to me, i don't think 95 8gb will be weaker than n82 for photo shooting. the only strength that n82 holds is its xenon flash. to be true, both phones has same hardware spec, except processor, memory and camera flash. correct me if im wrong.

Damn, few weeks ago read few reviews that compares N82 with N95 8GB, all of them telling N82 last longer usage although its battery capacity is slightly less than N95 8GB. However just visited Nokia website, which telling that N95 8GB last longer than N82. Which sources should I trust??? cry.gif Any tips?

That's the part i'm confusing abt... I was searching reviews that is more focusing on camera features. I remember one of the review was telling that, they tested the camera features with the same settings and env (of course except N82 with xenon flash) and found N95 8GB running out of battery much faster than N82, whereby N82 was able to shoot more pictures yet last longer shakehead.gif, and concluded this is due to larger screen of N95 8GB. The only two reasons for me to consider N82 are better photo quality and lasting longer usage.

If you are talking purely on camera + flash usage, definitely N82 will drain faster due to xenon flash. LED flash saves energy, but puny lighting >10 ft away in the dark.

Yah, agreed candy bar and slider is the main different, that's why Nokia launched 2 almost similiar features phone with less price different.

Think back .. Ermm... When you hold these 2 phones on your hand, let's say forget about the brand and model. Which phone looks more like a RM2800 phone. Haha..

Just imagine one day Dell and iMAC offer same price same features of their laptop.. erm, which one do you think it looks more elegant, worth the price...

Tell me who will use all the function in N95 8GB daily.. even i strongly like N95 8GB.
WIFI: Do you use it to pop all your forward leisure mails (not important mail) in starbuck/WIFI area everyday?
GPS: Do you really need it that much in malaysia town area? Do you have so many chance to carry this GPS machine and go oversea for travelling and business.
HSDPA: Do you really know what is it by comparing to 3G? Everyone only know it is faster than 3G smile.gif Need to pay
3G: Do you use video call that much? Do you tele conferencing everytime? Need to pay
A2DP: I think people start to know how to use it perhaps

I can tell you that nowaday most of the high end handphone features are for future usage in country such as Malaysia. I read one article before by comparing how asian and european utilize the built in features of a high end phone... No offence, most of the people please don't waste the time to compare that much on the high end feature, your final decision will always made based on 2 things only haahahaha! Which are "Design" and "Camera".

Camera is not the most not important point to be considered in a phone when you are starting to understand how to fully utilize the whole phone. Other things are more interesting.

N95 8GB is considered to be the best mobile phone ever made. It's definitely a super phone which excels in all departments - mobile telephony, still photography, video recording, music, gaming, Internet surfing, and many other things. If you want a cheaper phone, go for N82, it's the next best thing. See what experienced guys are saying about N95 vs other cell phones at: http://www.swotti.com/mobilephones/

Yah, agreed candy bar and slider is the main different, that's why Nokia launched 2 almost similiar features phone with less price different.

I'm using N95 8GB. Apart from 3G and HSDPA, I use them all. smile.gif

Dunno about others, but for me, the design of N95 8GB tends to make you use all the functions, but if I'm holding N82 I'd probably use the camera hardcore only.

My view is simple, it's the multimedia keys and bigger screen make you more comfortable to use all the functions. Also due to the dual slide design, holding the N95 in landscape mode felt more like a portable video player cause you won't see the keypads. brows.gif

Nope, once the n-gage launch it'll support the music key as gaming keys. biggrin.gif However I do hope other game developers especially emulators can make full use of the music keys, then it'll be a real gaming device... biggrin.gif

Haven't make much use of the irport, gotta install the ir remote soon. smile.gif

N95 can also install rotateme mah, can even switch off on the fly and anywhere... biggrin.gif

BTW I went to Nokia store to play around with the dummy set of N82, the screen size surprise me a bit, it does looked bigger than I initially thought. So thumbup.gif for N82...

mostly on n-gage will support those keys. for other games to support would be too much trouble to produce multiple version of games.

i mean n82 rotate is built in, jz turn the screen the it will flip. no rotateme required.

n82 although candybar phone, is considered rather big for candybar.

At least slide down the N95 and have the dpad at the left side and music keys at the right side feel more like a gaming device mah, and more comfortable to play games that way, hence there's dedicated gaming device N81. biggrin.gif

Yup the N82 is quite big but I'm comfortable with big phones though, too small I'll be rather clumsy to handle. Although I can't test the keypad and feeling of the tactile feedback (cause the dummy model dpad and keypads cannot press one sweat.gif), but the position is quite hard to do one handed operation or else will slip out from hand easily. hmm.gif

well, playing landscape mode is just a variety of gaming experience u can have, but not all games are suitable to be played that way. dont forget that lots real arcade machines have portrait orientated screens.

the keypad has good keypress feel to it. on the contrary, i feel that n95 is quite hard to handle one handed cos u have to slide the phone up to access the keypads.

Don't think so it'll be too ugly to do it no matter how, and no room for you to put anything on top... sweat.gif

Just get Martin Field Screen Protector, you'll get protecting film for screen, front camera, main camera, and flash as well. RM50 if get from bulk orders, LYN member "daijoubu" is the one to look for, or can't wait then RM68 including shipping directly from singapore (RM60 + shipping).

Not scratch proof, actually scratch quite easily (if kena sharp object la, finger nails aren't likely to scratch it). But hoh the scratch marks is surprisingly transparent and won't kacau the display (if scratch lightly la), it'll be invincible (I accidently scratch some when pushing the bubbles with credit card). So far no scratches on the main camera lens yet, so...Touch wood... tongue.gif

far outta topic ady...anyway, the seller asked me topup another rm15 or so and he give me sticker protector for whole phone. i check and i see the stickers are not really covering the entire phone. imagine for the keypad, it's a big piece of 3 big rectangular holes for 3 rows of keypad. should be individual one by one then nice mah.. so i didnt take it. i still hvnt removed the original sticker that came with my n82 so that should work for now thumbup.gif

i still hvnt gotten used to the position of the green and red keys at the side of the phone...always press the function key by mistake thinking that i press the green key doh.gif

Just FYI N95 8GB it's not about 8GB memory la that's just very minor comparison, at least N82 can get up to 8GB SDHC memory card now, and will support up to 32GB if it's going to be available. nod.gif

Anyway I once almost stuck 6GB of datas in it, mostly movies cause I went to travel and took lots of pictures and videos, plus watching the movies I transfered on the go...So scare the memory will run out...8GB is a great balance, but to me 16GB is more like it, I can even put in more stuffs especially music files... biggrin.gif

by saying the thing on cars, i supose they shouldn't put the speedometers to be more than 110km/h when brought in to m'sia, since that's the speed limit here wink.gif

why is it wasteful? i would rather have the assurance of extra space as and when i need it, than to have a 2~4gb card run out of space unexpectedly.

i concur that the only downside to it is that the 8gb is built-in, and not transferable.

i was contemplating the n95-2 and the TyTN II, and made made my decision based on the fact that the n95-2 is more multimedia-capable compared to the tytn2. N82, well aside from the xenon flash and candybar, like how it's said, it just boils down to personal preferences. i have a digicam, so having a xenon or non xenon camphone would do no difference. loving the big screen though.. biggrin.gif

ohh..i'm not really a movie person. my favourite would be mobireader. jz load any good book, let it autoscroll and read it slowly.
even movie recording not very keen. i got some videos in my digicam but when think about wanna upload and share, headache ady...pics are much easier tongue.gif so far still got half free in my n82 2gb.

i figure the most space consuming would be videos. i made a rough check and 84mb free will still allow for 41min of highest quality video on my n82. 41min is rather long already to be video recording something. besides, if u store video inside, of course u convert it to max resolution of 320x240 so wouldnt take much space per one movie as well.

Dunno about what other think about this. Personally 8GB built in chip will gimme more confidence that it won't fail suddenly like memory card (I've had bad experience in the past). Memory card felt fragile to me, if buy good quality one can withstand rugged use have to pay even more. So I would rather hope for maybe 16GB built in memory than having memory card slot from future Nokia phones. brows.gif

I know if phone really kena accident the internal 8GB will also gone, but I've also experienced that my phone dropped, but miniSD gone together too...Langsung cannot access the memory card even though I can retrieve it... cry.gif

I was imagining how will it be if i watch youtube with a candybar before I sleep. The design n95-2 already grant it greatest advantage over N82. More over, built in 8gb, although it is not transferable, it has a faster speed as compare to memory card when you access it.

I admit, performance of N82 might be slightly better than N95-2. Search around YouTube, you will see the comparison between the two phones on boot up time, camera start up time etc. And the price different is not small. Therefore it is quite true when people say 'You pay extra just for the design". However, it is an item that you are going to use it for few years, and always always bring it wherever you go or do. So for me, design really matter.

I was imagining how will it be if i watch youtube with a candybar before i sleep. The design n95-2 already grant it greatest advantage over N82. More over, built in 8gb, although it is not transferable, it has a faster speed as compare to memory card when you access it.

huh? wat has watching youtube before sleeping have to do with candybar?

LOL somehow become my habit. Example, when you want to do simple calculation, and I give you a scientific calculator. Back to the phone, watching YouTube only need a few options, pause play forward stop, even back and select other clips. Of course, you have to enter the keyword to search before you can start watching.

I like the n95-2 becoz of the its bigger screen and for someone with fat fingers like me... will definitely be throwing the n82 to the wall... the camera is fine... the video is good crisp sound and everything... IMHO both are the same thing but with extras just to differ one another... like ali and abu. ali is a diff person with diff capabilities and abu has the same features like ali but with diff capabilities la... but i dun like abu...i hate abu.. abu is my bully in school.

LOL..the design doesnt suck bcos the design not good, jz that its not aesthetically pleasing to you. u want an example of design sux? the n95 is already so wide, but the audio/tv cable still come out from the side. if u plug earphone in to listen to mp3 and put in ur pocket, isnt it bulky? on the other hand, n82 jack is on the top. so no prob with the audiojack tongue.gif

just superficial comment...obviously not user.
i can tell u that although n82 camera is very good, one small bad point is, it cannot stand on its own because the phone sides are not flat.
so when u wanna self take pic, have to set timer AND look for something to support the phone.

You can, but only one side and in landscape. Open the memory card door, and rotate it a bit, tada, can stand liao. laugh.gif

Regarding the design, I've played with a dummy set recently, although the design is really not bad, and looks quite nice, but it felt a little too long and keypad too small (including the dpad area keys). Tried to operate one hand and my thumb still kinda uncomfortable to reach the lowest row of keys. The keys and dpad can't be pressed due to dummy set (I dunno why), really hope to play with a real set at Nokia store someday. smile.gif

LOL...good idea for the memory card cover..but my poor phone... cry.gif

I went to Nokia Pavilion and they passed me the dummy phone as well...dumb thing. keys cant be pressed at all. i asked for actual unit and they showed me one new from the box. after that i left the shop and went shopping at lowyat brows.gif

trying the phone for a short period, u might know that u like the design or not. but in the long run, u would find certain things which will only occur in long time after practical use.

best example for nokia : N76. looks nice, razor thin flip phone. when u hold in in the shop "WOW, nice slim phone, with symbian somemore...."
but when u bring back and start to use "!@#$%, the paint chip liao", "why the phone so dumb when i plug in the jack i cannot open the flip fully because the jack is blocking?", things like that....

so u might think that at that moment at the shop the phone sux, but when u use it for long, u will find even more things like like (and hate) about it tongue.gif

No doubt getting used to the phone is one thing, I think the keypad on E70 is small for my fingers too, used to press wrong button often, but got used to it eventually.

But if there's something better to start with, why not? tongue.gif

No doubt, N82 is not just xenon flash, noise reduction, details and colour also have significant improvement over N95 family. Hopefully Nokia will put the same noise reduction algorithm to N95 8GB... biggrin.gif

haha...nokia might be good enough to give some minor updates to n95 in terms of image processing, but i dont think they will be that dumb to make it better than the n82, else...the n82 i would rather dump it also tongue.gif

I don't find I need (cause I don't have LOL). More often you'll need a good night mode pictures than xenon flash, in this case, N82 still win over N95 8GB. That said, N82 still win N95 8GB even without xenon flash. So if camera is priority, your choice is clear. smile.gif

Other than that, xenon is a plus. nod.gif

Everybody is free to express their own opinion, and I find there's nothing wrong with whojen's statement, he was just expressing himself that he's waiting for iphone like upcoming Nokia phone that might or might not kill N95 8GB and N82, that's just his dream phone. Everybody has own preference, he did not like N82 doesn't mean he's stupid to choose something "inferior", and doesn't mean anyone who don't choose N82 is stupid, too. Moreover, where do you find his post offensive or even bashing N95 8GB or N82?

And please, monoblock phone user don't curse your friends and fellows around here. It's inevitable that sliders and flip phones sooner or later will have problems with the ribbon or slider, but it's also true that not every single user have the problem. Some unlucky ones have to deal a lot with the defects, and some don't. Like my brother, although he's not using Nokia, his SE S500i has been all good even after a year of usage and on top of that he even dropped his phone and knocked on the slider part, still work great until now. Also, N95 8GB is still young in the market, how the slider can tahan we still can't predict, it might be Nokia has improve the built quality that it might very durable and can last for long time. And don't tell us if we dropped our phone than habis, it's not about sliders will easily get damage or not, this is merely just cursing. Would you feel good if I tell you that N82 silvery paint will chip off like other older Nokia models even if you take great care of it? That said, there's always price to pay but it's a fact that sliders and flip is the only way to fit in more stuffs without compromising much of the overall phone size. If you look at Japanese phones, they're beautiful with great specs, and they're tons of flips and sliders. They can make it into monoblock, but do you think majority of people will want a big size phone to carry around?

Once again, for comparison between this 2 models, they're simply equal, and has been thoroughly discussed. There's nothing more to add in this thread, really.

in case u dunno, nokia have announced a symbian OS that operates with touch screen...
as when the new models that use that OS will be release, no info..
BTW, nxt time, b4 u even started to flame ppl, pls do some research on facts
i believe he means that after the OS really come out with the spec that in way better then these 2 phones, then no point fighting over them, since it's from nokia as well....

N82 has xenon flash which will produce better picture when snaping picture at night. Unfortunately, it doesn't comes with Pencil tool which is very useful especially during SMS.

For me, I would choose N82 because it is not as bulky as N95 8GB.
After all, I don't use that much internal memory.
I prefer to store my stuffs in memory card.
