Performance
Memory128 MB–
Storage100 MB160 MB (better)
MemorySymbian OS 9.2 with S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1 and 128 MB RAM, reported by GSMArena. Chip model is not inferred.Up to 160 MB dynamic shared internal storage for applications and personal files. Installed physical RAM and chip model are not inferred from available working-memory figures or unspecified review references.
Storage typeApproximately 100 MB user memory reported by All About Symbian; GSMArena measures 132 MB built-in memory in its test. These are differing reported memory areas rather than separate configurations. Hot-swappable microSD slot; SDHC support and an 8 GB card are documented by All About Symbian. The launch release includes a 2 GB card in standard packages, subject to regional variation.Hot-swappable microSD slot; original maker consumer specification supports cards up to 2 GB. Bundled cards vary by regional sales package; no universal included card assumed.

Front camera–0.1 MP
Main cameraUp to 5 MP, 2592 × 1944 pixels, autofocus Carl Zeiss optics, xenon flash and separate autofocus assist lamp. Sliding lens cover operates the main camera; two-stage capture key. Exact optical focal length and minimum focusing distance are not inferred from sibling models.5 MP CMOS, up to 2592 × 1944 pixels, autofocus Carl Zeiss optics, called Vario-Tessar by the original consumer table. Physical focal length 5.6 mm; focus 10 cm to infinity, macro 10–50 cm. Mechanical shutter 1/1000–1/3 second and integrated flash. Active sliding lens cover and two-stage shutter key.
Front cameraSecondary front camera supports still photographs, video capture and video calls. Exact maker guide does not specify its megapixel count; left unpublished here.Maker consumer table specifies a CIF 352 × 288-pixel front sensor; headline 0.1 MP rounds that pixel count. GSMArena reports 640 × 480 output; sensor format and processed output are not treated as equivalent.
Zoom–No optical zoom. Maker consumer table gives up to 20× digital still zoom, up to 6× at 5 MP; video up to 10×, up to 4× at VGA. Earlier launch datasheet gives 8× video zoom; preserve mode/source distinction.
Video recordingMain camera records VGA 640 × 480 MPEG-4 video; 30 fps reported by both contemporary full reviews. The guide distinguishes MP4 TV-quality modes from QCIF 3GP sharing mode and documents electronic video stabilisation.MPEG-4 VGA 640 × 480 at up to 30 fps, digital stabilisation; MP4 default and 3GP sharing modes. Consumer table claims AAC stereo and a digital stereo microphone, but All About Symbian’s original production test identifies one recording microphone and mono audio; the stereo claim is not treated as verified recording hardware. Clip length depends on available storage.
Camera featuresSelf-timer, sequence capture, white balance, exposure compensation, ISO, colour tones, contrast, sharpness and composition grid. Xenon flash modes include automatic, on, off and red-eye reduction. Features may depend on firmware.Automatic/user/close-up/sport/landscape/night/night-portrait scenes, white balance, colour effects, exposure compensation ±2 EV in 0.5 steps, flash settings, self-timer and sequence shooting. On-device still/video editing and compatible PictBridge, Bluetooth or UPnP printing.
Battery and charging
Battery1,050 mAh (better)950 mAh
Wireless chargingNoneNone
Battery life detailRemovable BP-6MT, 1050 mAh independently reported by both full reviews. The 2008 Asia issue-2 guide gives up to 190/260 minutes talk and 210/225 hours standby for WCDMA/GSM respectively. GSMArena quotes a different 4.5-hour talk claim; conditions and source periods remain explicit.Removable BL-5F 950 mAh. Original consumer claims up to 160 minutes WCDMA or 240 minutes GSM talk, 200/225 hours standby respectively. Earlier launch datasheet gives 210 minutes GSM talk and 215 hours standby; runtime conditions and source date matter. Datasheet claims up to 7 hours music playback.
Wired chargingDedicated Nokia charging connector; DC-4, AC-4 and AC-5 supported in the guide. Micro-USB data connection does not charge the handset, confirmed by GSMArena.Dedicated small Nokia charger connector with supplied AC-5 in the Danish package. mini-USB is for data, not charging, independently tested by GSMArena. Charging wattage not published.

Weight detail112 × 50.2 × 17.3 mm and 114 g from GSMArena's exact-model physical review; original maker datasheet mirrors could not be read in this source pass. No weight convention inferred beyond that review.–
ColoursOriginal silver and later black finishes; one hardware model. March 2008 maker release publishes black-finish geotagging features and supports microSD cards up to 8 GB; software availability depends on firmware.–

SpeakersStereo loudspeakers, both on the right side for landscape use. Speakerphone and ringtone measurements in reviews are distinct from headphone audio quality.Integrated stereo loudspeakers, 3.5 mm stereo headphone/TV-out connector with PAL/NTSC support and stereo FM/Visual Radio. Compatible wired headset provides the radio antenna; optional Bluetooth audio uses A2DP.
Software
Operating systemSymbianSymbian
Software at launch–Symbian OS 9.2 with S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1, independently verified in the original GSMArena full test. Launch datasheet’s unusual “Feature Pack 3.1” wording is not copied as a separate OS version.
Software featuresOriginal S60 applications include multimedia gallery, image/video editing, music player, FM radio, calendar, messaging, document viewing and PDF reader. Firmware, operator and region affect software; retired Ovi, N-Gage and music services are not advertised as current.Contacts/calendar/tasks/notes, email with attachments, Nokia Web Browser with Mini Map, music/video player, image/video editing, Quickoffice and PDF document viewers, and PC Suite synchronisation. The 2008 owner guide covers later software; retired online services are not promised current functionality.
Release detailNokia's dated launch release states that N82 is available now in key markets on 14 November 2007 and explicitly calls the original N95 its predecessor. The N95 8GB remains a coexisting alternative; no N73 replacement link is inferred from review comparisons. Silver and later black finishes remain one model. Archived maker product/support and full press inventory remain unresolved.Announced 26 September 2006. Maker announces first regional shipments on 22 March 2007; contemporary March/April production tests establish 2007 retail presence, but no exact worldwide first-sale date is confirmed, so year precision is retained. This record is the original N95-1/RM-159, not the later N95 8GB or American/Chinese variants.
In the box–Original Danish consumer package: N95, CA-75U video cable, DKE-2 data cable, HS-45/AD-43 stereo headset/adapter, BL-5F battery and AC-5 charger. Region/operator bundles can differ.
Connectivity
Mobile networkRM-313 guide confirms GSM 850/900/1800/1900 and WCDMA 2100. HSDPA supported; regional model identity is retained rather than borrowing other radio bands.Original N95-1/RM-159: GSM/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 and WCDMA/HSDPA 2100 MHz. Consumer overview specifies 3.6 Mbps downlink/384 kbps uplink; its later packet-data row reverses the labels. The overview ordering is retained with that discrepancy explicit. Regional N95 variants are not silently combined.
