Legendary age – Nokia N95.
2007 is also about time Iphone introduced and Apple has stunned the world with careful construction of the user interface around the capacitive multi-touch screen. While the Apple App Store was introduced until next year, Steve Jobs and the company initially only bet on web applications. Their iPhone does not have GPS and the 2 MP camera cannot record videos.
However, Nokia N95 can do that. When comparing Nokia N95 with Sony Ericsson K850 (another famous camera phone), 5 MP camera and Carl Zeiss Tessar lens of Nokia N95 produced much higher quality photos, from colors, sharpness to light, … And this is the first time Nokia overtook rival rivals from Japan – Sweden with phones with 3 MP camera last year.

Looking back, although the N95 also offers similar features, but perhaps this phone suffers from the syndrome “ahead of its time”. People just aren’t ready to use their phones as a desktop replacement.
Today’s smartphones with large CPUs can handle office tasks neatly.
More realistic, you can play Quake III, Asphalt 3 or FIFA 2007 on TV and use your phone as a gaming machine. N95 supports the N-Gage mobile gaming service and N95’s TI OMAP 2420 chipset powerful enough to run the hottest FPS shooting games in 1999.
