Review of the All New Nokia N900
It is already a given fact that in today’s very much innovative and very much high tech environment, one of the topmost players in the mobile industry is Nokia, the largest provider of mobile phones in earth. From the starting mono cellular phones and eventually developing out and venturing into the smart phone platform, Nokia’s competitive products have remained as its foremost priding bread and butter. It had gone to tap relatively its own share of the consuming public in one of the specialties of its recent competitors, Google and Apple.
Let’s discuss about the forerunner of Nokia in terms of the smart phone industry, the Nokia N900. Personality preferences are of course the main subjective factor in how a user would view and look into this mobile devise. In certain individuals, its relatively larger size may seem a bit bulgy for them. Although that would be the initial outlook, the Nokia N900 can earn its credit in terms of online or internet functionality. As an internet tool, it is definitely much more sleek, slimmer and practical. Its relatively bigger dimensions would take some of that free space in every pocket. As trademark of Nokia mobile, it has still some of the unique features that could only found on Nokia models. Some of the features still present are the slider enabled by spring and who could ever lose their fingers on turning on and off Nokia units at the top of the handset. From the relatively common input and output ports, Nokia has included in the N900 a volume rocker, a pretty much easy to connect USB ports along the side lines, a camera button pressed on a two-stage and still the 3.5 mm headphone jack. Although a bit stout, it still is long enough for that perfect and wonderful writing experience.
The Nokia N900 is basically a landscape oriented phone
for the full-touch feature to be greatly appreciated. Be worry free from the need to open the back of the unit near the battery place just to insert your micro SD, this smart phone has already its micro SD slot underneath. In terms of the interface display, the Nokia N900 might not present the brightest but it’s relatively enough for perfect use in most of the lighting conditions. Sliding half on the panel down would show the owner a relatively much common design of the QWERTY keyboard. Regarding the battery, the N900 has used Nokia’s existing BL-5J on a 1320mAh that would, in most cases reported, last up to 1 day with all that WiFi and 3G being continuously used.
The first aspect on the software of the Nokia N900 that might come to everyone’s attention is its home screen. It has the most versatile and changeable home screens that is available now on the market. You can always organize the programs in any manner that you may want them to be displayed. It really has a great benefit on maximizing the screen space unlike any other smart phone. Tapping out the touch screen would initially take the user to the “dashboard”, thus you may choose to open a program while the others or actually using can be minimized alongside. Aside from the best of its home screen features, it has its own exciting system notifications programs. For example, an incoming short message is just displayed as a mini bubble on the upper portion and to view the message’s detail, you may just tap that one. Some other notices would normally come in small yellow boxes. This Nokia’s marvel is really pretty in a way that it presents a unique style in the Internet Tablet line. Although it’s relatively a wise go in terms of the handy internet functionalities, this Nokia smart phone has still long ways to go.
The user interface is a bit quirky in this Nokia N900 too
Being a Maemo program, the task bar and even the status bar has tendencies of disappearing in a relatively short while. Thus, this affects the user in having no idea on how to navigate on the other applications and to take note of the time, signal and other indicators.
Being generally landscape oriented, it only supports portrait mode on a few applications like the photo or cellular phone mode. With some of the downfalls, a particular area where the Nokia N900 stands out is its Skype support feature. We can relatively note to be the best one in the mobile industry. In Nokia N900, you can make that VoIP feature almost instant, pretty much comparable to using the GSM phone call ordinary feature. As a general upgrade of the previous Nokia mobile phone models, surely the New Nokia N900 is a worthwhile try.
