Nokia’s on a press junket craze like no other recently. The Nokia N81, the Nokia N95 8GB Black, all those Nokia accessories, and not to mention the Nokia 5310 and 5610 Xpress Music Phones – it’s a lot in such a short timeframe. We’ve barely had time to process the results of the Nokia GoPlay event in London and we’re getting word that the US-spec Nokia N95 is headed for Yankee shores next month! That’s right folks, the N95 with US-friendly 3G frequency support (850/1900Mhz) is bound for your favorite 3G GSM provider (read: AT&T) Unfortunately, T-Mobile and their 1700Mhz 3G frequency is a definite no-go.
We already saw the Nokia N95 US pass through the FCC’s testing regimen, so it was only a matter of time before this beauty hit American airwaves – but who knew it would be mere weeks after all this product launch craziness.
For those of you that were patient enough to hold off on pulling the trigger on an unlocked European Nokia N95, you’ll be happy to hear that the US-spec N95 will not only rock its HSDPA radio on US 3G spectrum, but will sport a bumped up battery (up to 1200mAh), 100% more RAM (128MB, up from 64MB), a recessed camera lens to help protect those amazing Carl Zeiss optics. And, don’t forget, the N95 is still packin’ that integrated GPS, WiFi, stereo Bluetooth, and TV-out.
Sadly, the 8GB capacity or 2.8 inch screen isn’t in the cards for the US. But, getting the GPS-equipped N95 on US 3G networks is enough for us. Color us excited!
