N96? N95? N97? what to choose

[paddymarsden]

I currently have a Nokia N95 (not the 8GB model) my mobile contract is up for re-newal but im struggling to choose another phone. Ive been looking at the N96 on youtube but it gets alot of bad press for being slow.

I was wondering if anyone has one here? One other option is that i wait for the N97 but will that be a letdown also....I did consider the 5800 express but the camera is only 3.2 and i do take alot of snaps out and about.

Help is much appriciated

I've got the n95 (non 8GB) and the N96. The n96 is nice for the extra storage, but I do find it a slower than the n95 and the battery lasts longer in the n95 than my n96. But out of other phones I've tested recently I find the n96 is the best. Hated all the new high mega pixel phones around, as I found them slow and cumbersome to use. Plus I wish people would create phones that can be used if you have large hands, not childrens hands. As I find txting on a lot current phones a pain in the rear. I tend to hook my n96 upto what machine I have near me to txt.

SAMSUNG G600 FTW!! lol..
My colleage at work has the N96 and he loves it..do you deffo want to stick with the Nokia brand? Because even though im just a bit of a samsung fan boy, they have a lot of good phones out at the mo imo. The samsung Pixon looks amazing if you ask me! - Have a look into it dude - http://pixon.samsungmobile.com/uk/ - 8MP Cam by the way so you wouldnt have to worry about caring a camera lol

Had the nokia n95 8gb, was impressed but you do have to live with the constant freezing etc

I have found that this isnt the case with my new n96 works perfect
