Other included accessories include an action figure of Bruce Lee made by Enterbay is likewise included with the handset.
The N96 sports 16GB of built-in storage and a microSDHC card slot. This Chinese version should include a TV tuner and integrates a five-megapixel camera with flash, a full-blown GPS sensor, Wi-Fi module and dual-band HSPA-based 3G data network access.
