Neil I never use my phone as a music player, I was just making the comment for someone who did the N95 is the better option. I'm not too keen on slides either, but while the N82 does feel heavier and more robust, for its size and weight I did find it too plasticy. I liked it but it has never been my favourite phone.

The N95 also has the disadvantage of being a slide phone, thus more susceptible to damage and wear and tare effects over time. I agree though about the music through the loud speakers, but being blunt, if you're buying a phone as a substitute for a HiFi or Stereo system there's something wrong! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Barbara Wilson Sent: 14 November 2008 19:14 To: talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [talks-uk] Re: n82 I have owned an N82, though not an N95 but I have had a play with one. I think the N82 feels cheap and plasticy in comparison to the N95. And the sound of music on the N95 was better.

N95 is excellent though others would say the N82.

I wondered if by any chance talks was known to be a problem with this phone or if ive just been unlucky. The first few phones wouldnt send text messages now the latest replacement wont forward a message.
