 Deciding whether to buy the Nokia N96 really comes down to the value proposition. It's a solid phone, and it fits nicely in the Nseries lineup, but this phone doesn't measure up against the superior Nokia N85, a phone that offers improved performance and better features for 1/3 less cash. The Nokia N96 has good call quality and solid multimedia performance, but Nseries fans can do better. Compared to other multimedia smartphones, the Nokia N96 packs all the features you're craving, but wasn't able to deliver in terms of speed or reliability. The battery life was abysmal, the keyboard was a pain to use and the design overall, inside and out, seemed uninspired. Even this phone's standout features, like Flash support in the Web browser, were so poor that we can't consider them a selling point. This may have been a nice phone when it was launched, but since then Nokia has done much better. Release: October 2008. Price: $500.
Pros: Large screen. Good sound quality, for music as well as phone calls.
Cons: Low battery life. Underpowered compared to less expensive Nseries alternatives.
