N95 8gb is good but with the new firmware (V21) due soon for the original N95, thers talk around the nokia forums that the old 1 will soon be better than the 8gb version, so in my opinion i'd just get the original (RM-159).

Both great powerfull phones though, N95 8gb also has a slightly bigger screen, not that you need it because its plenty big enough as it is.

Well lets put it this way... Nokia are saying that when they release this new firmware for the original, its said to be more stable, more reliable, contain more features and a damn sight cheaper, so i know which one id prefer, i cant understand why you would need 8gb of internal memory anyway, because thats essentially why it costs so much more.

I know two people that have them. First one doesn't make a sound or alert you when you get a txt! The second one runs SO slow! Freezes all the time and nothing but trouble

mines been ok... not the best phone, crashes every now and again.. turns itself off if u knock it.

but. dropped it in a big puddle the other day.. completely underwater... and its fine :D

id go to a shop and play with the s.e k850i and the n95 and see what u like best

with the k850i id watch out for the "operation failed" error on the software ;)

also the 8gb hasnt just got a bigger memory it also has a bigger screen, better software that doesnt error and runs alot faster

as for the updated softwear coming out? you will be waiting a long time as it was ment to be coming out 3 months ago haha

dude i have had the original n95 and the 8gb i would personally say the original one is a waste of money as it has too many software issues me mum had one and it wouldnt charge and it was brand new and my one just wasnt working anymore as it wouldnt allow incoming or outgoing calls (firstly i thought it was blocked but nokia said its a common fault) me dad had the 8gb and he hasnt had a single prob with it he drops it and stuff still working mint so id go for that

I have the original N95 , a bit big in your pocket but a very good phone lots of stuff on it half of the stuff i don't use , camra's great so is the sound quilty .
Text is good but when clicking on thing it loads quit slow which is a down side .
Prices is not good but on a whole i like it .
