Rumor: The Nokia N96 With Xenon Flash
The rumor for today is that the Nokia N96 will have Xenon flash similar to the Nokia N82. Xenon technology is a lot brighter than current LED flash which results in a lot better picture quality at night or indoors with poor lighting. Take a look at my previous Nokia N82 photo samples. I think this rumor sounds too good to be true, but I’m all for it.

Nokia N96 with Xenon Flash… photoshopped.
Daedalus85 from Esato forums says
Our Nokia rep told me… the (Nokia) N96 hasn’t been given the complete green light yet… And the delays are due to them adding (at the last minute) a Xenon flash…
If this rumor is true, does it mean the current dual LED’s initially planned are staying and a Xenon flash will be added? Or will it be totally replaced? The bad thing about removing the LED’s is that Xenon light can’t be simultaneously on while recording video. This feature is missed by previous Nokia N93 owners.
Another theory can be that the xenon flash will be implemented to a Nokia N96 variation instead and probably get called Nokia N96i. It was not an official statement, so I don’t believe it yet.
