This is Lisa. She loves her N95 8GB, as well she should. There’s many reasons to love the N95 8GB. I’ve spent some time with the N95 8GB myself, and am currently having a go with the N95 8GB NAM (these N95 variant monikers are starting to become a mouthful) right now courtesy of the fine folks at WOM World, the Nseries sponsored word-of-mouth resource that covers all the latest happenings around the Nokia blogosphere. The N95 8GB line has seen some very nice software improvements since I last played with one. I’ve done a piece some time back on the ten reasons to update to the N95 8GB from the classic edition, and it may very well be time to revisit that topic. The shiny black beauty that I’ve got here in front of me now has flash support in the browser so that I can play embedded flash content from YouTube, or any of the other flash content sites out there. It’s got all the fancy updates that I’m sorely lacking from my beloved N95-3- that’s the seemingly forgotten North American variant….. This new one has vast improvements in speed with regards to the gallery as well as a much quicker camera load time and processing of the images. It’s also got a larger screen- which doesn’t really look that big on ‘paper’- it’s a 2.8 inch screen as opposed to the classic N95’s 2.6 screen- but when you get the thing in your hands, it’s a quite noticeable difference. The width added to the top slider that allow for the extra 1/5 of an inch gives most the initial impression of a rather “chunky” device, and this was exactly my impression. It just loses some of the elegance of the N95- and yes, I think the N95 is a classy, elegant device- I really do. The N95 8GB though, with its shiny piano black looks, and it’s fat-headed slider with the 2.8 inch screen seems to lose some of this. I will have to say though- I’ve absolutely gotten used to it- and now that the North American 3.5G network capability has been added to this variant of the N95 8GB, I’m really starting to like it. One thing that really makes this device stand out is something that Lisa wants to tell you about…
