Good review. I'm still not convinced though, especially about battery life. What the
N95 tought me is that I don't care how big the phone is, or what it can do, if it dies on you in less than a day it's all but useless. I'm out and about a lot and very rarely get to charge it every day. A majority of us need a phone that lasts at least 2 days with moderate use and the 95 fell well short of that mark to the extent it was a complete pain to use as you just couldn't rely on it at all. I ended up having a backup phone in my glovebox!
I'll never believe anything Nokia says again. The standby on the
N95 mark 1 was nothing short of hideously crap. Orange have it right on their website - 1day. Yep, that's about right, not 200+ hours (woooot!!!
not in a million years!) as Nokia still says on the Nseries site -what a load of tosh. I sold my 95 two weeks ago and have a gorgeous HTC TYTN II which does everything the
N95 does (with 3MP admittedly) but for 10 times longer. I can actually use the internal GPS with TomTom too and it lasts for several hours on a full charge.
However I'm not a fan of PDA's as I don't use them to their full advantage and I much prefer the simplicity of a mobile. So if when my upgrade time comes along in 6 months, the N82 has proved itself to have a decent batterylife, then I may consider getting another Neries.
A long *** n82 review....
