Seeing many posts on here, and elsewhere for that matter about the good and the bad of the new V21, i thought it hide time for a poll, just to see some figures of how many people are happy, and how many people are unhapy with the V21. http://hongblog.net
Yes or No.
When voting, please comment on what problems you may have since upgrade, or post what improvements the upgrade has made for you.
Personally, I have found it improves my N95-1 no end, from better battery performance, to fast navigation, and image browsing in the gallery.
------------------
I suppose so, but claims about long text in the browser are rubbish. Yeah I love v21 for its battery life tho. I went at least 48 hours without charging and I bet I could have gone longer if i didnt spend god-knows-how-long on wi-fi.
------------------
Should've included a "My product code isn't ready yet" option :P
------------------
A big yes here.........slightly annoyed at not being able to scroll around the youtube page when video is playing or loading, you're stuck in the video playing box which is annoying.
Is it just me?
------------------
Battery life seems better, but apart from that, i can't see ant significant improvement, by that i mean something that's made me say "WOW!! that's LOT better!"
------------------
It is better, the search works MUCH faster. Battery life is improved, but gutted they have not fixed long text posting in the browser.
------------------
I would have to say YES, the battery life and the flash 3 is what makes v21 "good". However without those noticable features It would not be worth upgrading from v20 to v21. Im currently on 3 and never knew 3 released a v20 for us but now its too late as ive already upgraded to v21.
------------------
for me the GPS has been GREATLY improved, much faster locking, the GPS lock time is one of the problems with the phone, and i have to say... it's no longer a problem! great update!
------------------
OK, hmm, narrowly yes. The battery life is much better, navigating the menus is quicker and accessing music player and gallery from memory card is much much quicker. Bar code reader is now dead easy to use and has been much improved (why is another question). On the minus side it took me literally hours to rebuild my phone from scratch and I have less RAM on the same settings/applications running than I did before. Maps was a step backwards: I was and am again using the V2 beta version. The speed of the phone has swayed my vote although I'm a little disappointed after the massive improvement that was V20.

Very happy with it here, won't echo all comments above. Recommended download though.
