To introduce the Nokia N95 to the region, Nokia invited media representatives to a challenging and unique treasure hunt in Dubai.

The event allowed the Nokia N95 to demonstrate just a few of the endless ways this cutting edge handset can deliver to consumers what they need when they need it.

The technology behind the Nokia N95 is advanced and compatible with the most modern network systems.
