The supreme argument that the iPhone used to hold over the Nokia N95 phone model, when compared, was that of the available memory space. Rumors have sprung lately, saying that a new version of the Nokia N95 will pack the 8GB capacity, which the iPhone also manages to achieve.

These rumors put the two devices on closer grounds. Although they hold a large number of differences, both handsets have been considered revolutionary when it comes to performances, which has inevitably led to some comparisons. A 8GB of available memory space would surely make Nokia N95 gain some considerable points in advance of the iPhone, although it is already considerably pricier than Apple's phone.

Users of the Nokia N95 phone model have complained in the past of the low battery life span and the small available memory space. When considering the fact that the iPhone allows its users to store only Apple media content on it, the 8GB of the Nokia N95 smartphone sounds a great deal more appealing than Apple's phone model.

Rumors sound a bit too good to be true, actually. The 8GB of available space is supposed to be only the phone's own internal memory. An additional microSD expansion slot will contribute to making it even larger than that, for those who like to have more than enough space to store their files on, just so they don't get crammed.

It looks like this evolved version of the N95 phone model will come in a stylish design and black color. The relation between this and the data storage space is slim, but turns out to be highly more appealing than that for the previous version of the phone.

News on the existence of the 8GB Nokia N95 smartphone have sprung from a XML data of the Finnish company's website. Should we be picky, some extra processing performances would also be welcomed for this mobile phone.
