ItsaMobiles - Contract Phones

The Nokia N96 is upon us, the much hyped successor to the much loved Nokia n95. I personally opted for an iPhone over the N95 due to the size of the n95, However I am now on the lookout for another smart phone as my iPhone is nearing the end of it’s contract. So is it worth it to upgrade my phone to the Nokia N96?

Some very cool features on the Nokia N96

• The Nokia N96 is Nokia’s answer the iPhone, However they really have went above and beyond by turning this phone into a multi gadget, I mean with the 5 MP camera & advanced video features there is simply no need to carry around a digital camera anymore. With all the multimedia features you won’t need to carry about your iPod as the Nokia N96 has great video playback & is an mp3 player all on it’s own.
• 16GB of storage that’s twice what the N95 had, thats more like it, so if you have a massive collection of music & movies that you like to watch on the go another plus for the n96.
• Built in FM radio, now when you’re travelling to the 9-5 by bus you can listen to your favourite breakfast radio show (mines chris moyles)
• WiFi capabilities, this is a great feature that has been becoming a more regular feature on phone’s it’s great to be able to have all the information you need at your fingertips at a mind blowing speed.
• GPS, yes this was on the N95 however with the improved RAM on the Nokia N96 I hear it is running alot better.

So why buy the Nokia N96?

• Well this is the phone for anyone who finds themselves carrying about a combination of these gadgets: Digital Camera, iPod/MP3 Player, Phone, GPS Device, Video Player. The Nokia n96 lets you carry about 1 gadget that does alot of powerful things.

The Nokia N95 8GB model is definitely something to scream about and if you don’t fancy shelling out £279 for an iPhone but want the same amount of space then this would be a great alternative, if you get it on contract you get it for free! and it can be as low as £20 a month, with 100 free texts & 75 free minutes.

Sure this is all good but what exactly is so good about the Nokia N95?

• A stonking 5 Megapixel camera you can even see the blackheads on your friends faces!

• DVD Like quality with stabilization, so for those of you with jelly hands no more fuzzy pics
