I thought the people who complained about missing lens cover on the Nokia N95′s were a bunch of crybabies until I took a closer look at the Nokia N95 8GB I’ve been using. No protection on the lens eventually leads to scratches. However, this is a review unit that’s been passed along other people. There’s no way of knowing if the previous owner put the phone in the same pocket with his/her keys.

The photos of the lens are below. Nothing major, but it can be avoided with proper protection.

You can’t really see the scratches until you hold it up close and I’m not sure if it affects the quality on the pictures and movies. It probably does.

Nokia claimed that they dropped the lens cover due to popular demand according to Jeremiah from Nokia Users. He disagrees with the decision. After watching my video, do you think a lens cover protection is necessary on our phones?
