I have had the Nokia N95 for about a year now and I love it!
Here is a brief review of my experiences:
Battery duration
It wasn’t great at first but I had to recharge and recharge every day for about 3 weeks before it gave about 3 days of normal use, but heavy use with the camera, mp3 player and navigation lasted only one day , so make sure you carry an extra battery if you’re going to be away from a power source for more than a day.
screen quality
The screen quality is excellent. 320 x 240 pixels and a 262k color display is sharp and viewable for movies. Keep in mind that you’ll need to convert movies to MP4 format, and there’s plenty of software to do this for you.
Keyboard
The keys are nice and easy to use except for the navigation pad which can feel a bit numb when gaming, however there are 13 keys together!
User interface
A very easy to use user interface, with bright and bold icons when you press the menu key. You can also move folder icons and place the most visited icons on the main menu or home screen.
gps
The built-in GPS is a bit disappointing as it takes too long to receive a signal. I had better luck buying a bluetooth GPS receiver and using third party GPS software like Tom Tom Mobile.
Bluetooth
Fairly standard and A2DP compatible, which means you can listen to music through a suitable pair of bluetooth headphones.
Conclusion:
A great little computer phone that has lasted me 1 year and still works. It does everything I want it to do for a mobile and more! I would recommend anyone, even after a year, to go for one, but keep in mind that the battery life is not great, but the device itself is brilliant!
