The latest and greatest from Nokia; N96 is about to be released next month according to this Nokia N96 review. We’ve talked about the device on Navigadget before so we’re sure you’ve all seen some nice pics. But recently Nokia also put up a demonstration site where it shows you how to use most of the functions.

All the demos are made with flash and show everything from inserting a SIM card to using the bluetooth to transfer files.

Price at about 550 €, Nokia N96 features 2.8″ screen, 16GB of memory, 5MP camera, integrated GPS receiver, a microSD card slot (unlike N95), and much more. It even has a digital TV tuner and a little kick stand in the back so you can set it on a table top for your TV viewing pleasure.

With all this features we can’t help but think about the battery life. According to specs posted at Nokia’s website the battery is a BL-5F Nokia battery at 950 mAh. It can give you about 220 minutes of talk time with GSM and 14 hours of audio playback. However, when it comes watching digitally broadcast channels you’ve only got 4 hours.

For more detailed description of the features take a look at this Nokia N96 review.
