Another definitive E90 review

Published by at

In an even more densely packed review than my own of the Nokia E90, My Symbian's Michal Jerz comes up with very similar annoyances, balanced out by a large number of positives and genuine delights. After reading both reviews, you'll know everything you need to about the latest Communicator. And that's a promise.

"What I liked:

  • powerful ARM11-based TI OMAP2420 processor running at 330 MHz
  • 128 MB of operating memory (RAM), about 80 MB available, providing unlimited multitasking
  • HSDPA 3.6 Mbps, UMTS, EDGE
  • built-in GPS receiver
  • fantastic 800x352 pixels internal screen
  • fully functional 240x320 external display
  • superb keyboard
  • quadband 850/900/1800/1900 GSM, 2100 WCDMA
  • Wireless LAN 802.11 b/g 54 Mbps
  • Bluetooth 2.0
  • A2DP profile for stereo audio over Bluetooth
  • USB 2.0 Full speed via USB Mini-B connector
  • 3.2 MPix camera with autofocus
  • TV-quality video recording @ VGA resolution and 25 frames per second
  • great build quality, elegant design, good size and weight
  • compatibility with existing S60 3rd Edition software
  • great performance.

What I didn't like:

  • no fax support
  • some functions missing or too simplified compared to previous Communicator models
  • terrible, imprecise Camera button."
