Nokia N95 8GB available on 3UK, woosh!

n95 8gb 3uk

I got word recently that the N95 8GB is now available on 3UK. The first 500 folk ordering one get a set of speakers, apparently.

No word on whether it’s running X-Series.  I imagine it will be.   The X-Series portion of the 3UK  website doesn’t look like it has been updated for a good few months.  And when I had a look on the online ordering page, the N95 had the X-Series icon next to it, whilst the 8GB version just had an MSN Live icon.

I don’t think 3UK would launch such a powerful and potentially exciting handset on to the marketplace without X-Series support. This has to be one of the sexiest and advanced handset/mobile operator combinations available on the planet today (excluding the Far East and their 100mb/sec multimedia style  services).  Unrestricted data, a ton of brilliant applications and a wicked Nokia handset… good work.  This would be my choice.  I’d definitely take a look at Vodafone’s rival offering, but I think I use data far too much to be arsing around with Voda’s silly access policies.

    I look on their website and you only seem to be able to buy this including the useless video calling pack where you get “free” video call minutes for £15 a month. I have zero interest in making video calls but you don’t seem to be able to get it without this useless addon? Or am I missing something?

  • Alan Third

    They would still charge you £15 a month for the handset even without the free video minutes. Three seem to have changed their scheme so that you pay less for the tariff but you pay for the mobile as a separate monthly charge.

    Doing some quick maths I don’t think your £15/month covers the cost of the mobile, so it’s still subsidised by the tariff, but you don’t need to pay anything up-front for a fancy mobile on a cheap tariff.

    Which may, or may not, be a good thing for you.
