Nokia N96..Arrives


Talk about looking forward to owning a phone with awaited breath…that’s exactly how I am feeling as of now. My mind is reeling from the after effects of seeing the phone in action. The phone is beautiful in every possible way.
Coming from the N series, the phone has a rich sound quality (actually that goes without saying). 16GB of internal memory is sufficient to store all your data, but people who are hungry for more; they can expand it by 8GB using a micro SD card and if even that doesn’t meet your expectations, then heaven help you!! There’s also FM radio with RDS…just in case you still want more music.The brilliance is not restricted to the music. It also has a 5 MP camera with auto focus and double flash. Another thing that I liked about this phone is that it’s a dual slide. As in sliding the lower part gets you the keypad and the upper half has all the options for the camera. The pictures and video clips can be viewed in the landscape mode. There’s also Video recording where you can record videos at a speed of 20fps. I discovered something new in this phone and that was a cute little stand. Perched on this stand the mobile gives you a good view of all the images and clips. The front VGA is as of now dormant, at least till the 3G technology is launched in our country.
Its quiet obvious that a phone of this range will be internet enabled but what comes as a pleasant surprise is that it downloads data pretty fast. You can view full pages and the screen is large enough to allow a good read, without squinting. The design is also sleek, though it could have been a bit slimmer.
With a perfect balance in music and camera features, this phone has left other smart phones far behind.
