I want to buy a new phone and currently I'm looking at the N95 (not 8gb) and the N82.
AFAIK both are about the same price, so which one is better overall? Any downsides on both of these phones? |

one thing i want to ask you, between n95 and n82 which has better sound? loudness?
btw, did anybody try to use the n95's infrared (irda) as a controller for your television, aircond etc??? i heard that there are applications that can be used on n95 as a remote control. and another thing, can i use gps on n82 or n95 in malaysia. does it have malaysian maps?? and what is malsingmaps?

QUOTE(davidmak @ Mar 31 2008, 08:25 AM) Actually we can have good maps without using our data services, navigational software and fast locking speed with our N95. Just buy a tiny Bluetooth GPS receiver module and pair it with the N95. Well, it'll decrease portability by a notch but the performance is really good. The internal GPS module only has about 6 channels and take ages to get a signal lock. Any external GPS module can get more than 20 channels and lock a signal in just seconds. Holux M-1000 for example is one good recommendation. That way, you don't drain your N95's battery. The Holux M-1000 can easily run for more than 17 hours, good for up to a week's use. How much does those external gps module costs? and exactly what brand is sold here in malaysia?For software you can try using Garmin Mobile XT and one of those Malsingmaps. Its the most accurate and detail map for Malaysia and Singapore. Just support Malsingmap.com, contribute and you'll get a map. Garmin Mobile XT can support S60, Palm and Windows Mobile. For this to work, you need a Garmin-GPS receiver but if you search hard enough, you can find a workaround. have you tried it before? |

QUOTE(zx7177 @ Feb 26 2009, 12:05 AM) any recommendations for a slim and relatively low profile flip down pouch for the n95 ? kinda need one as mine doesnt have any protection besides the screen protector maybe get the cheap leather protector i dont recommend using a crystal case as it is not so good with sliders...it will break in a short time.. |

yeah.. basically it doesnt show the radio station.
RDS is on newer N series like n85 and n79. it will show the radio station's name. im not sure if n85 also support rds with song names like in euro countries. maybe our broadcast doesnt have that. hey guys.. do u know where i can get casings for n95 8gb? and what is the diff between ori ap or 3rd party manufacturers. |

QUOTE(aspire2oo6 @ Mar 29 2009, 10:40 AM) AP casing about 50 -70. yeah.. Putraskyline, it's not worth the bucks to sell your n95 off and get n79. if you want better i suggest looking up the N-series ladder..not down.Ori casing 100 -200 pre order from NCC. If u take care of your phone well it can last at least 5 years and above. My NK E61 already 4 years still no problem how can yours 2 years old will have problem? I myself was impress with the output camera quality of n95. like n97 or something. or maybe n86. can i know what is the diff between ori and ap casing other than the price. btw, Putraskyline, just change the casing to another colour..it'll be really nice. like all black or all white...  |

QUOTE(Putraskyline @ Apr 1 2009, 11:21 AM) Whats really make me confuse are some shop claiming their housing was AP and selling at Rm110 and some are selling Rm50-60 claiming grade A/AP too. Form what I can see, they are same product. So beware who want to changing housing. yeah..maybe need to touch the casing ourselves to make sure.btw, guys, do the ap/grade A casings have a soft rubbery feel with the back cover like the original? and how to make sure if the shop is selling ORIGINAL casing and not grade A? Added on April 4, 2009, 1:15 am QUOTE(wkho555 @ Apr 1 2009, 07:23 PM) is there any housing that can fit 8g battery? i saw some custom housing that can fit a larger battery on ebay.. but it's made in china. not so sure about the quality.another option is to sand down the batt cover and also remove the battery skin..make sure the battery is removed from the cover/plastic wording.
