i was once an owner of N95-1, i am an extreme user of it using WLAN, bluetooth etc.. i may say well tested.. how about N95-2 can it withstand that kind of usage specially installing games ang apps every now and then? because ive read that some are having problem with that built-in memory..

The N95-2 can do everything the N95-1 does and more.

The system has 128MB of RAM to work with instead of 64 with the N95-1, so you can have more applications running concurrently and you can process more complex data (more feature-rich web pages for example).

The screen is about 0.2" bigger (but the buttons on the front are a bit smaller).

The camera is the same, but there's no lens cover like there is on the N95-1 -- a design fault if you ask me, and Nokia managed to spin up a story about how people were supposedly catching the button to open the lens cover on their pockets etc.

If your N95-1 works as-is then to be honest I don't think you'd really benefit that much by getting an N95-2 right now. Wouldn't you rather wait for a few months and go for the N96 when it's released? You'll get your 16GB of on-board mass storage *and* the memory slot so you can use your existing microSD card.

very well said grschinon. I totally agree with you.
If you already have n95-1 there's not much reason to get n95-2.
Just a curious thought, why is it that a lot of queries/issues/probs about n95-2 are posted here more than n95-1 has?

That it because would be buyers prefers N95-2 over N95-1 nowadays...N95-2 users are catching up with N95-1 if it has not passed it yet...

Remember that most handsets are provided by network operators. Operators are now offering the N95-2 under pretty much the same conditions as they were the N95-1, say, 6 months ago. Customers signing up for or renewing contracts would be nuts not to go for the -2 now. I certainly would if I could renew! As it is, I can't renew until June next year, by which time I might be able to get an N96 

Only people buying SIM-free handsets want to think closely about the price. The place I go to for my mobile-related things is currently selling the N95-1 at £280 and the N95-2 at £400, so there's a definite financial argument against going for the latter.

Oh I see...

Thanks! ;-)

Here in our place a lot of people opted to buy sim free handsets.

There are people who gets it from the network provider but I think majority prefers it sim free and prepaid.
