Beta testing the N95 8GB with PseudoFinn and Munkimatt

[PseudoFinn]

Very shortly, I'll be receiving a Nokia N95 8GB device for beta testing- courtesy of the fine folks at womworld.com.

I believe I'll have my hands on the device for two weeks, which is a fairly short time to play with the device and put it through it's paces- so I'd love to get any questions you have about the device, concerns that I might address for you, or anything else you'd like me to do with the device during the beta testing program. This will help me fully evaluate the device in the amount of time we have to do so. Hopefully some of you will come up with some questions or tests that I might otherwise neglect and we can get every question answered we've had about the upcoming super-device.

Let's get the questions and ideas for test rolling in!

Very interested in the video playback at hi quality 640X480...in DivX player or CoreCodec player...in the current model the sound and video tend to go off sync...also is the TV out any better.

[PseudoFinn]

Shaffee- I'm with you on that one.

Munkimatt- Cheers, mate- I can't wait! It'll be good to have another beta tester around here to bounce things off of.

This is great that you and munkimatt get this N95 8GB to test, it be interesting to follow your experience . Im belive I go get one ..) I like the big screen

[PseudoFinn]

Yeah- I'm real interested to see what a difference .2 inches can make- I wasn't super impressed when I was checking it out in LA, but I did have a few drinks, the music was loud and I wasn't focused on the size of the screen when I was fiddling with it.

Ah you see I loved the new one when I saw it at the London event!

Thats sounds great
I have read Stefan from of intomobile.com noted that it was actually brighter than the original N95. Like the 2.2" to 2.4" and 2.4" to 2.6", 2.6" to 2.8", although only 0.2" difference on paper, makes a world of difference when viewing a mobile phone screen. For one, it's a lot more comfortable for your eyes not having to focus on such small fonts and makes viewing pictures/videos a more pleasant experience. Despite the fact that the display is still QVGA, as opposed to the rumored VGA, it still looks darn good and there shouldn't be much complaint over the gained screen realty. I haven't done enough exhaustive testings on different applications to see if there has been any obvious, unsightly stretching but I definitely welcome a bigger screen.

That sounds real good what are your feelings about Stefans reviuw`?

Ah, that one is Joses review. I was with Jose in London. Good guy.

I think he's pretty spot on with that review really. My only critisism with the display was that the fonts etc all seemed to be stretched slightly to fill the screen. Hopefuly that'll not be the case on the production models.
