Nokia N70 N90 N91
Nokia recently introduced their new N-series of mobile phones, consisting of 3 models. The first, the N70 has a multimedia orientation. The N90 is more of an imaging phone. And lastly, the N91 strives to be a music phone.
The N70 is a multi-purpose phone - its a smart phone with two cameras that also plays music. Nokia touts the photography aspect of the phone and notes both the 2 Megapixel camera for both stills and videos, as well as the front VGA camera for video conferencing. The phone comes with 35MB of memory, and has a RS-MMC card slot. Nokia also mentions the phone’s Series 60 / smartphone features including email support, web browsing and 3G features like EDGE. On the entertainment front, the N70 includes a MP3/AAC/MPEG4 player in stereo, with FM reception and Visual Radio. The N70 is relatively smallish at 109×53x22 mm and 126 grams.
The N91 is Nokia’s new music phone. The defining feature is the on-board four Gigabyte hard disk, which can hold an impressive 3000 songs. The N91 supports the MP3, M4A, AAC and WMA file formats, and lasts for up to 12.5 hours of music playback. The device includes stereo headphones and a remote control. Interestingly, the N91 has Wi-Fi (802.11b/g!), 3G and Bluetooth connectivity. The parade of features continues with Opera-based web browsing, and all of the smartphone / productivity-type features of the N70. The N91 sizes out at 113×55x22 mm and 160g.
And then there’s the Nokia N90. A cameraphone meant for somewhat less-than-serious photographers. The 2 Megapixel camera, the flash, the autofocus, the macro mode and the Carl Zeiss optics are all great features, but the lack of an optical zoom puts a bit of a damper on things. Photos & videos are saved with the generous 31 MB internal memory or the 64 MB RS-MMC flash card. There’s no MP3 player on the N90, but otherwise it shares most of the features on the N70 and the N91 noted above. Slide and Shoot with the Nokia N70 - Nokia press release.
