Does anyone else have an N96 and think its really slow and finds their battery life rubbish? Or do I need to throw mine out the window and get an upgraded model of it.....had since october when it came out.

yup thats why im not getting one, its got the same battery as the N95 which is silly considering its got a larger screen
I would get the N85 as its got OLED screen all the same stuff as N96 except DVB (as we dont have it in the UK it does not matter), its got a larger battery than the N96.

If you've had the phone more than 14 days, they won't give you a new phone at all. There used to be a rumour going around that once a customer had 3 repairs or exchanges done on a phone, they could get a new one, but it's not true.
The N96 on Voda is a bit of a shambles, and it's all down to the way their software works on the phone. Every phone that Voda sends out has carefully designed software so they can fully brand the phone, and every change to the stock software has to be debated with and approved by the manufacturer, which means that when Nokia releases new software versions, Voda typically takes about 2-4 months to put out the same software on their branded handsets, with their modified feature-sets. The N96 is a particularly bad example of this, because they've screwed the software up massively. On a side-note, the phone's not that fast when in peak condition, either, and the battery will never last more than about 36-48 hours if you're using any of the phone features at all. If you don't use MMS/the internet/video calls, you could always turn off 3G on the phone - might get a few more hours out of it that way. This thread's reminded me of every reason I quit Voda customer services ![]() |

Sometimes people come up with ways of debranding handsets, but I've not checked for the N96. Hit google with "debranding N96" and see what comes up
