The Nokia N95 has just been released and I have managed to get my hands on one of the first handsets off the production line. There is so much to say about this stunning phone that I'm probably going to be talking about it for weeks.

Say hello to the Nokia N95

On paper, the capabilities of the handset are impressive, but the really cool moment happens as soon as you get an N95 in your hand. Then you see just how good the features you've read about really are.

The first thing you'll notice is the unique dual-slide design. Slide the front of the handset one way, and it reveals the phone-keypad. Slide it the other way, and it reveals the handset's multimedia controls. Not only is this a totally unique design, it's also very intuitive to use. The built-in Music Player pumps its sounds out through the high-quality stereo speakers.

On the back of the Nokia N95, you find the built-in 5-megapixel camera, giving really, really high resolution pictures. It will also record video at 30 frames per second. That's even cooler when you know that a movie at the cinema runs at 24 frames per second. So, not only do you get the best photos ever seen on a mobile phone, but also the smoothest, best looking video, as well.

And then you find that Nokia have an ace up their sleeve. Yes, the N95 has versions of every normal phone feature, but on steroids. But it also has one killer application, which completely blew us away when we saw it: built-in satellite navigation.

Now, there's no need to buy a separate satellite navigation kit, this handset has it all built-in! From plotting a course between postcodes, to finding your nearest shop, pub, or just about anything, the handset does it all straight out the box.

So if you want a phone that is utterly stunning, prepare to have your mind blown with the Nokia N95.
