Having had the phone for a good month now, I finally feel qualified to review the numerous features of this phone and give the low down on some of the more esoteric features of this fantastic bit of kit.

In brief, call quality is great, contact management is sensible, but detailed and menus and general layout very much in the vein we’ve come to expect from Nokia. Battery life is very much dependant on what you use the phone for, but you can manage around 2 hours max a day with some moderate application usage.

There are also some refinements of NOKIA N95 over the N80 in form, such as a slightly more sprung slider. The key locking functionality is a big improvement on previous sliders and seems to keep my phone from phoning random friends. More advanced “basics”, the video calling works well, working first time with my wife’s k800i. In fact, one of the most subtle impressions I’ve had from the phone is that most everything simply does work, first time.
