MR.B Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I'm on the hunt for a new mobile and being into my gadgets I found this... Nokia N93 Now I know it looks a bit 'chunky' but it also looks the nuts and has some great features. One of which is a 3D graphics hardware to produce games such as THIS and THIS. I'm tempted to get one of these as it's out this month. I don't want to look like the guy off Trigger Happy TV though. What's the verdict?

Andy Supra Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I took a break from Nokia's. Went to a Samsung D500 and had a Motorola before that, gone back to the 6280 and ok fair enough I broke the screen walking into a wall but other than that being my fault, it turns itself off, the camera works once in a blue moon, the screen fades when it feels like it and loses colour, go damn Nokia's. Won't be going Nokia again. But thats just my 2 pence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I think you will look like the guy from Trigger Happy TV:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psymon Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Yuk........ lol :d If you want gadgets and stuff, these are what you have to buy. I just like my phone to be a phone. No I ain't got a 3310 stil either lol. Ask yourself do you really need all that stuff, when other stand alone one job consumables are always better. If ya do , then go for it mate.... Cool phone but it will be a brick in ya pocket. :d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Good grief that looks good 3D for a phone... I can't get excited by phones, everyone keeps telling me they've got thist that and the other. I ask "So what functions do you use?" and they look blank and say..."The address book?". They only cram so much crap in them to be different and keep selling more phones. It's become a trend thing rather than useful features IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Im with you on the gadgets thang. Im a Nokia fan, always have been. Id have the N93 tomorrow if I didnt have the Comunicator, it looks great IMO. The N91 is good too if you wanted less bits, a few in the office have them and are very happy with them. Bit like spoilers on a Supe this subject:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit like spoilers on a Supe this subject:) Yeah i've been looking at the N91 as well - looks good. I think i'm going to hold off until the N93 is released so I can see what its like 'size wise'. Then I can take a look at the N91 too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannoSupra Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I got the N90, awsome Camera - Bit big, but you soon get use to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Peace Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Oh I wish you wouldn't post things like this. I was holding out for the P990....now i really am confused! The things im 'realistically' likely to use are (in order) The Phone. Address Book SMS (qwerty keyboard makes it easier for me) Videocalling (I actually do use this ) Photography (so has to be at least 2mp qaulity) Email (occasionally) Wifi (would be useful) Full web browsing (would be useful) Games (I dont use trains much) Music (I dont use trains much lol) Mobile DVB TV (now that would be useful but the world cups over for England) Real Cool phone though motorola were going to bring out this style of phone with the same consept of flip screen but it never came out so I gave up! Nice phone though..might look at one anyhow when they come out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkey Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 They only cram so much crap in them to be different and keep selling more phones. It's become a trend thing rather than useful features IMHO. It's more than a trend tho. It's a fashion statement. Nokia have got the right idea - chief designer Frank Nuovo .. as captured the market into little niches: a) The luxerious phones. Gold, Platinum, encrusted with gems. That's Vertu - owned by Nokia. b) You have the fashion phones. Where you have phones specificly designed for women - and ones specificly designed for men. In addition, the 7600 is a good example of a unique design. It's horrible design imo - but that is where Nokia succeeds .. by launching products that are completely unique. c) Then you have the "E" phones. These are the top of the range business phones. d) Then you have the "N" phones. These are the top of the range gadget phones. e) The 6xxx phones - are usually the low-mid business phones. f) The 3xxx to 5xxx phones are usually the gimicky phones. LIke there was one phone - that was covered in LED's and flashed when it rang. That was quite a success with the 13-15yr olds pay-as-you. So, the phones that Nokia launch - maybe "gimmicky" and full of features that aren't useful. But - imo - we live in a society where phones have now become a status symbol. And that is exactly what Nokia is capitalising on .. and doing a much better job than it's competitors - of the likes of Sony Erricsson, Siemans, Sagem.

Thorin Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 The N range are all a bit too chunky for my liking. I've got the 6280, fantastic phone but even that's a tad on the large side. I wish Nokia would do a nice slimline slider like the new samsungs (E900? or was it D...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I've got the 8800, lovely phone, bit heavier than most, but that just gives it that robust/quality feeling. It does all I need it to and more, all I use the phone for is phone calls and texts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
