I originally expected a lot from the N96’s camera, as the N95 8GB performed extremely well. Unfortunately, I now know that it is nothing short of spectacularly crappy – look at the images below:
| Nokia N96 | ![]() |
| Palm Centro (1.3MP) | ![]() |
| Palm Treo 680 (VGA) | ![]() |
Even though the two Palm handsets have a significantly lower resolution, they manage to deliver significantly more accurate colors (the blur in the Centro’s image is due to a breeze).
How does your N96 perform?
P.S. I am on the latest firmware….

Actually, after using some Sony Ericsson phones lately, especially k800, I am very pleased with colors and above all you can enhance colors in settings
Hi Mate,
ok – but I think that the images should be ready-to-deploy from the camera phone…
I have tested a variety of Nokia phones, and have to say that the N96’s colors are by far the worst..

I’ve been using my n96 for about 2 months and there are a total of 2 pictures saved in my gallery.. and i’m a photo junkie! this is the worst 5mp camera ever! some 2mp phones produce better photos..
