Nokia N90 Review

Nokia N90 ReviewNokia N90 Review – The Nokia N90 3G smartphone features double displays along with a 2 MP camera backed by Carl Zeiss optics. The high quality of the N90 comes at a price, however. The Nokia N90 is the largest in the N series line so far – total weight of the N90 is a whopping 173 grams.

The N90 is a 3G triband phone (GSM 900/1800/1900 MHz) with EDGE, GPRS, as well as Bluetooth 1.2 and USB connectivity. There’s even HSCSD, CSD, as well as Fax support.

There’s only 31 MB of internal memory, but the designers include a 64 MB reduced-size (RS) MMC card with the purchase to compensate for this. This should be more than enough to store 800+ minutes of video, as well as thousands of pictures or music files.

The Nokia N90 boasts a great camera with Carl Zeiss optics. The cam takes wonderful quality pictures up to 1600×1200 pixels. The N90 also boasts an abunance of extra camera features. There’s adjustable exposure, nice auto white balance as well as auto focus. You’ll also find a good amount of image management applications preinstalled on the N90 – it’s also PictBridge compatible. The only thing lacking is the flash, limited at 1.5 m.

Nokia N90 Operating System and Applications

The N90 is backed by the Series 60 OS. You’ll find Quickpoint, Quicksheet, as well as Quickword – all compatible with MS Office. There’s also a great Opera browser I’m very fond of using, as well as Adobe Acrobat reader for .Pdfs.

The music player on the N90 supports AAC and MP3 files – not many formats support but .Mp3 is enough for me usually. I was suprised that the N90 didn’t include stereo speakers, however the mono speaker did the job well.

The battery life on the Nokia N90 is somewhat short, but not terrible by any means. Talk time is 4 and a half hours, while standby is around 10 days.

Nokia N90 Review – Conclusion

Overall, the Nokia N90 couples excellent camera and video capturing capabilities with pretty much all the features that anyone could want – but in a bulky, slightly heavier package (173 grams total). Keeping features in mind, the N90 boasts a great camera with high quality image and video capture abilities, decent music capabilities, as well as connectivity support for everything under the sun.
