Nokia N900 Linux smartphone

Once the unequalled leader among mobile phone manufacturers, Nokia still returns impressive sales, but ceded its dominance of the smartphone market with the arrival of the iPhone. It's been playing catch-up ever since, sticking rigidly to a Symbian OS that only seemed to grow older looking with each...

Test : Nokia N900.

Un des acteurs majeurs du monde des télécommunications, Nokia, nous a fourni il y a quelques jours un appareil que nous étions impatients de tester. Il s'agit du smartphone (très) haut de gamme N900. Et encore, le terme smartphone ne nous semble pas assez fort pour décrire cet engin.
Pros:
  • Très complet
  • Système d'exploitation libre
  • Quantité de logiciels disponibles
  • Bon rendu des photos
  • Connexion video
  • Casque intra-auriculaire de bonne facture
Cons:
  • Cher
  • Ecran non multitouche
  • "Rame" un peu par moment
  • Poids
  • Surtout destiné à une utilisation en mode paysage

Smart & Sleek ..

It is a very sleek and kikass smartphone. It comes with a qwerty touchpad and a slide. The operating system Maemo 5 didn't turn out to be so good. Besides that the smartphone isn't java enabled. Battery life isn't that good as it dosen't last too long. There is 256MB RAM and 32 GB storage space.

Nokia N900 review Review

The N900 packs a truck load of features, including a slide-out Qwerty keyboard and the brand-new Maemo 5 operating system, into its chunky black body. This brave new handset does a good job of erasing from our brains the bitter disappointment caused by the N97
Pros:
  • Fresh operating system shows huge potential
  • Massive internal memory
  • Bright
  • clear screen
  • Decent keyboard
  • Good VoIP and IM features
  • Worthwhile camera
  • Fast and smooth user interface
  • Accurate Web browser with Flash support
  • 3.5mm headphone jack means you can use your own cans
  • Expandable memory,
Cons:
  • Few apps available
  • No real potential for one-handed operation
  • Resistive touchscreen
  • Almost no portrait mode
  • Slightly chubby
  • Behaves more like an Internet tablet than a phone
  • Needs significant setting up to get the most out of it

Nokia N900

The Nokia N900 is the next evolution of the company's Internet Table , and don't let its smaller size fool you. It delivers more power, adds phone capabilities, and has one of most robust mobile Web browsers on the market today.
Pros:
  • The Nokia N900 offers a powerful mobile Web browser, plenty of storage, a 5-megapixel camera, and an ultrasharp display
  • It's also fast, multitasks well, and has excellent call quality
  • Wi-Fi, 3G, Bluetooth, and GPS are all onboard
Cons:
  • The user interface isn't very intuitive
  • Ovi Store for the N900 isn't live yet, limiting the number of available apps, and it doesn't sync with Exchanger Server 2003
  • The phone is a bit bulky and not all apps work in portrait mode

Nokia N900

And now for something completely different. The N900 is Nokia's first Maemo OS smartphone and it's their first Maemo version 5 device. Maemo is a Linux-based OS, and prior versions powered Nokia's non-phone Internet tablets like the N770 , N800 and N810 .
Pros:
  • Best web browser on a mobile phone
  • elegant multi-tasking
Cons:
  • Portrait orientation not available in most apps
  • WiFi kills battery life

Available as Prepaid?

This phone is good for web browsing and data, it has really cool features too. But I was wondering if it is available on a prepaid plan... preferably on Straight Talk? If so, I could save over $500 a year on average by switching from my old monthly contract.
Pros:
  • Good web browsing and internet
Cons:
  • -Dropped calls
