Nokia N90 Review

1.

As for the connection quality the device is a typical representative of Nokia smartphones with no serious problems. As compared with the Nokia 6680 the phone gained some significant advantages. Particularly, a voice recognition independent from the pronunciation appeared, no preliminary bookmarks are necessary. The screen is one of the best on the market and the best in its class. The external screen is the best in its class considering all the characteristics. The camera is on the level of the best ones though it's hard to find one to compare with, only the Sony Ericsson K750 that actually belongs to another class (all the photos are comparable excluding the macromode, the K750 looses here). And now a fly in the ointment. Rather slow camera work is a minus. Small capacity of a standard battery, only one working day in the standby mode for the majority of cases. There is no vibracall, the developers were right to think little people will wear the phone. The next disadvantage is arguable, that is dimensions - they are comparable to existent smartphones though loosing to usual phones. The software incompatibility with the previous models is obviously connected with the transfer to the new version of the operating system and Feature Pack 3. That's unlikely everything will be smooth with the majority of the programs, and the company won't get time to improve this by the N90 launch time. The last point is the camera sometimes working incorrectly when called by the module rotation; you might need to repeat the action. The problem is really unlikely to be solved in the future (depends on the module rotation speed). In the end we have an interesting device with some perfect components and some disadvantages. That is for one to decide whether the pluses will outweigh the minuses mentioned or not. There are no complains of the mechanic part of the Nokia N90, everything is perfect. You can read about the camera in a separate report, so we won't stop on it here.
