Now that certainly was refreshing. The Nokia N900 is different from anything else we have seen recently in the touch phone market. Better yet, it's different with a purpose. The Maemo platform is all about simplicity and multitasking - we guess that's music to the ears of power users. The Maemo will certainly seem unusual but - take our word - never unfriendly.
Indeed passionate users and developers are the most valuable asset of a given platform. Just look at the Apple iPhone if you need further proof. read more →
- 3.5" 65K-color resistive touchscreen of WVGA (800 x 480 pixel) resolution
- Maemo 5 OS
- State-of-the-art Mozilla-based web browser with Adobe Flash 9.4 support
- Slide-out three-row full QWERTY keyboard
- ARM Cortex A8 600MHz CPU, PowerVR SGX graphics accelerator; 256 MB of RAM
- Large and heavy
- UI only works in landscape mode (for now)
- No video call capabilities, smart and voice dialing
- Outdated camera interface and features
- No preinstalled voice-guided SatNav application
We came into this review wanting to know as much about Maemo as a platform as we did about the N900 itself; after all, the N900's just a single phone that'll be dead and forgotten from store shelves within a year. That's just reality, the hustle-and-bustle pace of the modern handset release cycle. Maemo, however, will live on -- but in what capacity? Where does it fit (or could it fit) in Nokia's grand plan? read more →
- Best-in-class browsing experience
- Unlocked AWS 3G, a rarity
- Extremely hacker-friendly
- UI and UX inconsistencies throughout
- Resistive touchscreen
- Keyboard isn't very roomy
A perfect gift for the Linux lover in your life, the Nokia N900 is powerful and utterly hacker-friendly. But more casual users should pass it by. read more →
- Linux-based OS
- Powerful processor
- High-resolution screen
- Excellent voice quality
- Eminently hackable.
This is a great phone/mobile computer if you're into this kind of thing. If you wanted a Nokia Internet Tablet but were put off because of their size and the fact you need a mobile as well, this is the answer you've been looking for. Well designed, easy to use and intuitive, it's everything Symbian should have managed by now, yet it still hasn't managed to do so.
It's a shame Nokia has said there won't be another Maemo device until 2010, so we'll have to wait and see what the next one will look like - will it have shed the pounds? read more →
- A great internet experience
- Slick UI
- Intuitive Maemo OS
- Vast array of integrated social network services
- Great multi-tasking
- Poor battery life
- Prone to freezing
- Resistive screen
- Juddering maps application
There’s no doubt about it - the Nokia N900 is a unique beast. In fact, it’s that uniqueness which makes it a difficult sell for all but the most hardcore smartphone consumers, but also potentially the most powerful. The N900 is a landscape QWERTY slider with a 3.5” resistive LCD, front and back facing cameras, 3G HSPA for T-Mobile bands, and runs the debian derivative Maemo 5 OS. read more →
