The Nokia N95 came out in 2007. No: the N95 is a 2G/3G phone, and those networks are gone in the US.

Key takeaways
The N95 is a 2G/3G phone, and those networks are gone in the US.
Software: Symbian S60.
Use it offline or as a collectible, not as your main phone.

The quick answer

  • Calls: no
  • Software: Symbian S60
  • Still works offline for some features
  • Worth keeping as a collectible

Why it can't connect

The N95 relied on GSM and 3G. No US carrier still runs either.

What still works

The camera, music player and offline GPS maps (if downloaded years ago) still work. Wi-Fi connects but can't open modern secure sites.

What it's worth

The N95 8GB and US version (N95-3) are popular with collectors. Check eBay sold listings.

If you're replacing it

A new moto g 2026 or Galaxy A17 costs little, gets years of updates, and several carriers give them away when you switch. Pair it with a low-cost plan such as Mint Mobile ($15 a month for 6GB on a 12-month term) or Visible ($25 for unlimited, taxes included).

Free phones when you switch

Current offers from Metro, T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T and Xfinity.
