Nokia N90 review



First of all I must to say that this not a regular review and I’m not going to write long piece, with lots of useless technical information. This is just a short user opinion based on my huge experience with Symbian phones, which I have used since the first models of Nokia’s 7650.

I hope it will clear some doubts and to help other users to decide whether it is worth buying or not. Also, please keep in mind that this review is based on final handset, not on preproduction models like on some web sites.

It was love at first sight; the phone looks impressive in every segment, a technically superb device that caused a ‘wow effect’ from me and my friends. All of them, even a few hardcore SE fan.. ...

I have to admit that this looks like a very good phone, excellent specs.
I also like the design.
Brought to you straight from the event horizon of a quantum singularity.

Well it is, extremely good hardware, (fast processor, huge amount of available RAM & built in memory along with hotswappable MMC cards), great display ( there is nothing similar in the mobile world at the moment, I can’t find right words to describe it, you need to see it ) nad after all it is a Smartphone with all benefits that comes with it and all available 3rd party software…

Agree on amazing display, other than that it´s still a woefully under-engined laggy S60 device. I mean, come on! Give the poor thing a PDA spec CPU to rid it once and for all of the (in)famous S60 lag.
I have 6680 myself, which as far as i understand is considered a pretty fast S60 device? Well it´s doing my head in with it´s hesitation everywhere in the UI/menus, and don´t even get me started on bootup time..
Also i don´t find N90 price-worthy but that´s just me of course..

As the title of this thread, I agree that N90 is huge... in size and price...
Why Nokia can't make the phone smaller?
And why the price is so huge? (Even N90 is more expensive than current price of 9500...)
If the price of N90 is so expensive, how about the price of N91 and the trio E's series will be?
Is that the reason why the launch of N91 is postponed to next year?
If only there is a Nokia smartphone with the size as small as K750, I think I'll consider to have it one...

the n91 is delayed until 06 because of DRM apparently, nto sure if this is confirmed or if its just what the rumour mill came out with.
