Nokia N96 'the possibilities are exciting'

Posted: 14 July 2008

Nokia's flagship N96 handset has been put to the test in a new review - and the verdict is that it is "an incredibly capable multimedia phone".

The Trusted Reviews website states that following on from the manufacturer's N95, which was equipped with a five-megapixel camera, video recording, music player and web functions, Nokia has attempted to make a model that builds on this.

The reviewer does have some issues with build quality, but states that a large and bright 2.8-inch screen and improved camera facilities are welcome in a model looking to emulate the success of its predecessor.

"But the headline news … is that it has a DVB-H tuner built-in, ready for mobile TV broadcasts," the reviewer notes, adding: "The possibilities are exciting."

Earlier this year, the website reported that the Nokia N95 was a feature-packed model that came equipped with a headset better than most on offer.
