About the iPhone, the sim tray is removable albeit with the help of a paperclip.

i salute the features of n95 and i think its really a powerful gadget but its size and bulky appearance makes it undesirable.. you cant certainly put it in your pocket coz it will attract attention from d people specially the snatchers.

other downfall of n95 includes: talk time, battery life and storage.

i was made to choose on the phone that ill get this xmas and i chose iPhone coz its cheaper and i can easily access the web considering im an internet freak!

I own an iPhone. Anyway, I tried out my friend’s N95 and IMO the N95 is better for everyday use because you can text without having to look at it, and that it is fitted with more applications than the iPhone. But, when it comes to the flexibility of navigation, good support for multimedia and simplicity of design, the iPhone beats the bulky, Jack-of-all-trades N95.

Are all these features very important for a gadget/device that is used for communication purposes only? Just like what Esteban said…

for texting and calling - buy a phone
for photos - buy a digital camera
for music - buy a mp3 player
for locator - buy a gps

And by the way…can someone use all the features at the same time? Like, while you’re talking w/ someone on the phone, you’re also listening to it’s mp3 player while taking a photo on it’s (?)megapixel camera…

Well…If you have different gadgets for these, you can do it at the same time…

I had an N95 for 1 month and then I sold it. Battery won´t last even 8 hours if you dare to use lightly their multimedia features, listening music for 1 hour, taking a few photos, using for half hour the GPS its all you need to drain the battery.

GPS satellite aquisition time is terrible, sometimes 15 minutos in clear sky is totally unacceptable (with lastes firmware available, the one that enable AGPS.)

Photo quality is also terrible, OK is 5 Mpix, but beleive me, my good old 3.2 Mp cybershot take better photos than this phone, ah… and it’s sloooow when taking then, 5 to 6 seconds between photos.

I´m going to try iPhone, but lesson learned: By now its an impossible dream to have all devices in one with QUALITY.

So… I bought a Garmin GPS, I´m buying an iPhone as a “Phone with casual and limited music listening and multimedia capabilities”, and an iPod Classic 160 to really fulfill my music needs, AND a good 8-10 MP Sony or Cannon camera. We are close to the one in all device, but that won´t happen until a new battery or low power electronics technology emerges.

The N95 is the current feature king of the hill, with everything. Lots of 3rd party apps. The swiss army knife of cellphones. However, that comes at a price - both literally and in terms of size and battery life.

In terms of features, the iPhone is last year.

Comparing the two is, I think, missing the point. The N95 is for an entirely different market segment than the iPhone.

The iPhone is for people who want an iPod that also can do email and web browsing. Oh, and it is also a phone. Feature for feature it is more like the old N70, if we ignore the UI. While any Nokia N- and E-series phone can show the same web pages as the iPhone (both browsers based on webkit), the way you navigate and zoom on the iPhone is simply great. Same with the iPod functionality. The user experience has always been Apple’s strong point, and that’s where the iPhone will sink or fly.

I think it is great that Apple has entered this market. SE, Nokia and other manufacturers are excellent at stuffing features into handhelds but UI is unfortunately one area where they have a lot of room for improvement. And that’s the market segment for the iPhone.

As for N95 and MicroSD, 4GB cards are out now, 8GB cards expected early 2008. The N95 will (or with the latest firmware already does) support the MicroSDHC standard which goes up to 32GB..

I bought the n95 between my last post and also can confirm that 4 gb microsd card works. 8gb card is on the way in 2008.

Nice work updating this table!

One comment: allaboutsymbian.com reports that 4GB microSD cards are working in N95.

And external memory means more felixibility…

GPS - Only N95 has this and it doesn’t seem to be such a big deal for most people today. I don’t hear too many ads pointing the GPS out.

I for one have bad sence of direction so GPS is awsome for me.

Storage - iPhone wins 4/8GB compared to 2 GB Micro SD

Yeah limited non replaceble memory is so much better than the Micro SD cards. /sacrasm off

Eye-Free-Texting - that’s something you maybe proficient at, it is not a “feature” on the phone. Some maybe better at it than others.

“some maybe better at it than others” isnt that the point of compairing.

Camera - I had a discussion about this with someone the other day, what does it matter the megapixels on the camera, I have a camera on my phone I barely use it. How often do you use it? Its a “nice” to have.

Well i never use camera on my phone also, but because it sucks. With 5 MP cammera i will for sure use it.
