Review: Nokia N900 Smartphone
Nokia's N900 bills itself not as a smartphone, but as an internet tablet or even a "mobile computer". This is very obvious throughout your usage experience, and I think it's a shame because they have included phone capability in it, and it's a pocket-able size so it is only logical that one would...

Absolutely awesome
This phone is best suited for people that have a high level of tech knowledge. With the open OS, you can do so much if you are willing to figure out how to do it. Its really pretty fun. There is something new coming out just about every day
Pros:
- I've had this phone for a year and never grown bored with it
- Being completed open OS allows for so many ways to customize
- Multi-tasking capability is just awesome
- Tons of free apps
- Just about every form of communication available on a mobile device, wifi, IR, BT, FM
Cons:
- Camera cover sliding mechanism is a bit cheaply made
- Mine broke after several months of use
- I've found that this is a common problem

Nokia N900 â€" the ultimate Linux phone?
The N900 might not be an iPhone killer, and it might not be a perfect Netbook/Phone combo yet, but with the Maemo operating system Nokia has laid the groundwork for a great range of devices in the future.
Pros:
- At first glance the N900 seems impressive
- It has a 600MHz Arm Cortex CPU, 256MB of ram and 32GB of onboard storage, with a high resolution, crystal clear 3.5in screen.
Cons:
- Firstly
- it feels very plasticky
- almost like the inside of a Corsa Utility van.

N900: A Geek's best friend
This phone is built for, meant for and bought by geeks. But first, let's start with the screen. It's not Super AMOLED like the Samsung Galaxy S, but it does have the SAME exact screen resolution, a 800x480 pixel count, as the Galaxy S phones.

Nokia N900
Nokia's Series 60 operating system has been around since 2001, so it's perhaps not all that surprising that when you place a Series 60 handset next to an iPhone or Android phone the OS looks a little tired.

Nokia N900 Review
This phone can be turned into a beast, but one that is not very easy to tame. If you are not looking for the customizable Linux experience, then many of the other features of the N900 can also be found on cheaper devices.
Pros:
- Highly-customizable Linux operating system
- Maemo
- Efficient multitasking
- Rich free application library
Cons:
- Bulky and heavy
- No Ovi Suite support for PC Sync
- Non finger-friendly touchscreen

Nokia N900 review
The Nokia N900 is best classified as an interesting but ultimately incomplete device. The Linux-based Maemo 5 OS does some things superbly and others poorly. This smartphone offers one of the best mobile web experiences available but there is plenty of room for improvement elsewhere.
