    Have a look at this sticky.

    The more info you provide, the easier it will be for people to recommend you a phone. :)

    Three nice phones.

    If you text a lot the n95 or the n85 may be better because no touchscreen.

    The n85 and n95 8gb are very similar, one main difference is the memory, the 8gb has internal memory, where the n85 will support up to 8gb from a microSD card.

    It probably comes down to looks between the two, and the n85 is a bit more 'stylish' than the n95.

    Sorry to hijack the thread, but also looking for a new phone with the following feature/ characteristics;

    Nokia probably
    good battery life,
    FM radio,
    Wifi
    camera,

    maybe GPS.

    Not sure I like the E series phones from Nokia, they seem a little wide in any pics I have seen.
    I am currently billpay with Vodafone and am out of contract so could move if I wanted, but am generally happy with vodaf.

    Any suggestions appreciated.

    Well please don't. :)

    Feel free to start your own thread, it can get confusing when there are multiple recommendations in the same thread.

    Hows the PDA/PIM functionality of the N85? And Battery life?
