I haven't found much information on the battery life of the final N95 phones. Can someone who owns one tell us what exactly we can expect?
I'm also interesting in stand-by time, if you use the phone only for a few phone calls and/or listening to music.
Does turning off gps/wlan/bluetooth improve the battery life dramatically?

I don't know about improving life dramatically but I have found that if you use bluetooth and have your email checking every half hour your battery life shortens dramatically. And I thought the N80 suffered from short battery life. Pah! The N95 wins that contest hands down.
If your not using 3G connections switching the phone to GSM only mode can extend the battery life. Bluetooth has some impact, but I've never bothered turning it off.
WLAN only gets used when it connects and you can control that. It is a battery drain.

Ah, that's probably where my battery drain runs from, especially with the email. Would imagine it would be worse in areas of weak signal as well, as the phone is constantly trying to find the best/available signal. Might turn off 3G and see what happens.
