- kotaKatI noticed quite recently in awe at the Chinese parts recycling market with the N95 (and a few other old Nokias) - https://www.ebay.com/itm/227249518747Apparently they've been rebuilding full "new" N95s and other Nokia fare from old motherboards and new spares/knockoff parts. It's like a new legitimate knockoff from the grey market? They've even got things like 'refurbed' N900s...Mine came with a text message still in the inbox from testing it with a test SMS on China Mobile in 2025 - so even the modem works!I'll have to give this a shot on my own N95.https://leoncini.com.ar/proyecto.php?id=xash3d since it's not linked from TomsHardware.
- p4bl0Oooh! I fondly remember my N95! Pictures and movies it took were great, at least for the time, and it had apps and a lot of stuffs like a browser that were presented as new on the phone space when the first iPhone was released, while I had my N95 for almost a year at this time. Symbian was a really nice system.
- jamesfinlaysonImpressive.Shame Valve still hasn't open-sourced the GoldSource engine yet, though I suppose Nexon and the Sven Coop lead dev have paid licenses that they still want to extract value from.
- ljfTo me the Nokia N95 was close to a perfect phone, only the E61 or 62 then the E72 could beat it, especially for the price at the time.I still like to think of a parallel time line where Symbian actually had a good and usable app store, and developers had been supported.
- porphyraWild how back in the days, phone chips were 10 years behind PCs in performance, but now they are almost the same (in single-core performance, anyway).
- itrunsdoomguyI would love to play Doom while I am playing Doom one day..
- varispeedI had this phone when it was released. I really loved it. But one thing I remember the most was using it as fidgeting toy. Just opening and closing it. So satisfying.
- steadyw0Litteraly a phone out of his time
- DenisDolyaNow instead of Doom we prescribe Half-Life. Is it worth waiting for the new rule "Half-Life works everywhere"?

- a3w332 MHz Dual ARM 11 ?! Half-Life ran smooth in Pentium 100 single core.Then, they added Steam, and my Celeron 300 had trouble running it. Shit by Valve to coule games with a mandatory subscriber agreement. Even breaks EU law to "one-sided change" it again and again later, to keep access to your game library.
