Nokia has gone a step ahead with its latest model N96. A part of the N series, the model comes as a successor to N95. It has surpassed all the phones in the mobile arena with a capacity of 16 GB onboard phone memory and an option to expand it further, via a microSDHC slot, a capacity which no mobiles flaunt about right now. The cell phone has dimensions of 103 X 55 X 18mm and weighs 125 g. The only hitch in the phone is that its battery back up is not something exceptional.
As the N96 is a slider phone, the 2.8″ screen dominates the front panel. With a resolution of 240×320 and capable of displaying 16 million colors, it looks superb in the majority of situations. The N96 runs the Symbian S60 9.3 operating system with the excellent Feature Pack 2 installed, bringing with it very welcome upgrades to performance and stability, plus a wealth of visual tweaks and the very handy Active Standby screen. Underneath the screen is the usual array of call buttons and softkeys, plus the introduction of a Navi-wheel, which works by moving your finger around the edge of the D-pad in order to move the onscreen cursor.
Transferring and accessing videos is even faster with the high-speed USB 2.0 connection and WLAN and HSDPA support. In select markets, the integrated DVB-H receiver offers live broadcast TV with an automatically updating program guide. The massive memory can store up to 40 hours of video content. The storage capacity of the Nokia N96 can even be further expanded with an optional microSD card, such as the new Nokia 8GB microSDHC Card MU-43 which increases the available memory of the Nokia N96 to a total of 24 GB. For added convenience, the Nokia N96 features a ‘kickstand’ on the back cover that allows for hands-free viewing.
The Nokia N96 naturally supports the Ovi family of Nokia internet services, including maps, music, media sharing and more.
