The Nokia N91 is one nifty bit of 21st century technology that is bound to grab eyeballs. How can a device that measures a mere 22 mm in thickness can integrate a 4GB hard-disc, a cool digital camera, a 3G/WiFi set up and umpteen other applications? If you plan to find an answer to this question then check the Nokia N91 Mobile Phone out.
It looks rather ‘different’ from other handsets and it would be a matter of individual choice to like its design or not! According to few, the rough design is “pug ugly”, while the majority considers it to be one of the most innovative handset designs in years. I’d stick my neck out and go with the majority and say that it actually seems to me a pretty decently designed handset. Enough about the design let’s get down to specifications now.
Its steel body encases a 2Megapixels camera supported by a decent 176x220 pixels display. The steel body gives an elegant look and the cover that protects the keypad doubles up as external multimedia keys interface. The phone being promoted as a music phone, the dedicated multimedia keys make it more user friendly. But the most remarkable thing remains the humongous 4GB internal memory.
The 3G capability ensure that music download from the web takes place at the speed of up to 384 KB/sec. Even in the area where 3G is not available, the presence of EDGE ensures high speed data transfers and good connectivity for the handset. Video calling is another boon of 3G technology and is facilitated by the secondary VGA camera.
But despite all these powerful and diverse applications, the Nokia N91 essentially remains a music playing handset. It is compatible with MP3, AAC, Real, WMA and a number of other media file formats. Besides that it integrates a Stereo FM and Nokia “Visual Radio” music service over GPRS. Its external memory slot is never missed as the huge internal memory more than makes up for it, but it also mean that to load the songs in the handset USB, Bluetooth and Wi Fi are the only available options.
Like most of the conventional Nokia smart phones, the Noika N91 Mobile phone runs on a Symbian Series 60 OS and offers the user services such as the e-mail client, JAVA compatibility, PC synchronisation, a number of PIM tools, voice recognition/dialling (this one is interesting) and a bundled stereo headset. I guess this should be (more than) enough for most of the mobile phone users across the globe!
