Description	Nokia N96 is a high-end smartphone, announced by Nokia on February 11, 2008 at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, part of the Nseries line. The N96 runs on the updated Symbian OS v9.3 (S60 3rd Edition, FP2). It was compatible with the N-Gage 2.0 gaming platform and also had a DVB-H tuner to watch TV. It is the official successor to the popular Nokia N95 8GB.Unlike its predecessors, the N96 was never as popular. Despite numerous improvements such as a doubled flash storage capacity, critics had negative views on the N96's battery life, unreliable software, its expensive price tag and for being very user-unfriendly. As a result, the N96 has been deemed as a 'flop' (commercial failure), contrasting to the N95. It was largely outsold by Nokia's touchscreen smartphone released during the same time, the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. Its successor Nokia N97 was announced just 3 months after release.
