Not just "one Italian reviewer" says it's better. It's better than the N96 by any standards:

* OLED display (brighter, less power-hungry)
* Tri-Band UMTS (850/1900/2100MHz or 900/1900/2100MHz) for worldwide 3G
* FM Transmitter (play songs to a nearby radio)
* Larger battery, much longer life (The N96 disappoints w/a 950mAh battery)
* Slightly slimmer (16mm vs 18mm); smaller overall
* Maybe faster processor (ARM11 @ 369MHz, vs dual ARM9 @ 264 MHz in the N96)
* $200-300 cheaper.

On the downside, it "only" has a 2.6" display vs. the N96's 2.8", and also no mobile TV (the N96 supports DVB-H, used for mobile broadcasting in Europe).
