Plus with 16GB of internal memory, yes that’s ALL built-in into the small, slim-line 103 x 55 x 18mm frame, you’ll have plenty of room to store all your multimedia files.

“Through the power of the Internet, video and TV are becoming even more prevalent in people’s lives. With its large, bright screen, and a range of high-speed connectivity options and the enhanced Nokia Video Center, the new Nokia N96 is a personal window to entertainment.”

The Nokia N96 Vs Nokia N95 8GB
The Nokia N96 is the younger brother to the Nokia N95 8GB, it is leaner and meaner than its sibling. What we have to realise is Nokia are very clever, the people there know the things they do best and therefore Nokia steam ahead in making these things better and better every year.

The Nokia N95 8GB is a great mobile phone and has been on our streets since March 2007, yet still continues to sell like ‘hot-cakes’, everyday!

The 5.0-megapixel camera with a Carl Zeiss Lens helps advance your photography into a new level, helped along by the built-in digital zoom and flash, all combined to making high-quality images just for you.

The 8GB of internal memory makes this great for multimedia lovers and DVD-like quality videos help to.

Accompanied with Wi-Fi technology and a built-in GPS receiver for Nokia maps, you’ll never be lost, but WHY you would mind if you had this baby to keep you busy.

The comparison between these two great masterpieces can’t be made until we have looked at the features of the Nokia N96.

So how does the Nokia N96 compare, well it’s a handset with so many ground breaking features, but yet it is so very easy to use, making it a very popular phone to all you guys and girls.

The Nokia N96 is equipped with an astonishing collection of multimedia features including a 5.0-megapixel camera with a Carl Zeiss Lens, digital zoom and flash all combined to making high-quality images.

Built-in GPS accompanied with Nokia maps again means you’ll never get lost and Wi-Fi helps for super fast internet speeds. Plus the latest feature includes a GPS receiver – this enables you to locate whoever had the phone, anytime and anywhere.You can store all your multimedia files with the impressive 16GB of built-in memory, twice that of the Nokia N95 black. Music features include a built-in FM radio and a top-notch music player, TV out and much, much more.

Who wins that is the question?…The Nokia N96 comes with a 5.0-megapixel camera equipped with a Carl Zeiss Lens, like that of the Nokia N95, but this time it has some slight software updates.

We were all impressed with the N95’s 8GB of internal memory well, things just got a whole lot better, the Nokia N96 comes with a massive 16GB of internal memory (this is the largest to current date) – which will go down a treat for all you multimedia monsters, there really is not stopping you now! But don’t forget this endless memory doesn’t stop there just like that of the N95 you can expand on this with a Micro SD card that will go up to 8GB of memory. If you add this to your phone your looking at being able to store….60 hours of video compared with the N95’s 40 hours. The music features in the Nokia N96 have all been upgraded including the FM radio with RDS and the best-out built-in MP3 Player.

As for size, we know how important it really is, the Nokia N96 dimensions are 103 x 55 x 18mm and only weighs 125 grams. Although the Nokia N96 is slimmer, both mobiles weigh very similar.

I think it’s fair to say the Nokia N96 is a clear winner, with its huge memory, latest multimedia features and sleek, sophisticated look, you really will be making a lasting impression with one of these in your hand.
