Comparisons Featuring Nokia N90

Short Review

  • The Nokia N90 features a unique design with dimensions of 112 x 51 x 24 mm and a weight of 173g, making it relatively bulky for its time.
  • Its 2.1-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 352 x 416 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 259 ppi, which is adequate but not exceptional.
  • Performance is driven by a TI OMAP 1710 chipset with a 220 MHz ARM926EJ-S CPU and 31MB of storage, complemented by 31MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
  • The camera is a standout feature with a 2 MP rear sensor that includes autofocus, though it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
  • Battery life is supported by a 760mAh capacity, but it does not offer fast or wireless charging options.
  • The device runs on Symbian OS 8.1a with a Series 60 user interface, which may feel dated compared to modern operating systems.
  • Connectivity options are limited, featuring Bluetooth 1.2 and a Pop-Port USB connection, but lacking WiFi and NFC.
  • The N90 does not include stereo speakers or a headphone jack, which may affect audio versatility.
  • Overall, the Nokia N90 combines a distinctive design with a functional camera, but its performance and connectivity features are constrained by the technology of its release year.
