The Nokia N series family album

Bonnie Cha Bonnie Cha, Senior Associate Editor June 11, 2007

While some cell phone users pine for the most basic of handsets and others crave the thin, there are those who want the most feature-packed mobile money can buy. It's this group of gadget hounds who will jump for the Nokia N series. Stylishly designed and packed with features, the N-series handsets up the ante on multimedia cell phones (in fact, Nokia calls them multimedia computers): they offer high-quality cameras and digital music players, Bluetooth, world roaming, 3G support with streaming video, and plenty of memory. The company even goes beyond traditional smart phones with the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet. Availability stateside is still a sticking point at present, as most of them have not been picked up by a U.S. carrier (with the exception of the Nokia N75, which is available through AT&T), but that hasn't stopped some of you from plunking down some serious cash for unlocked versions. Read on and get to know the latest members of the Nokia N-series family.

The Bottom Line Though it won't replace your digital camcorder or camera, the powerful Nokia N93 does a respectable job of integrating quality multimedia capabilities into a cell phone. That said, it's a bulky handset and is best suited for convergence fanatics and gadget hounds. The Nokia N76 offers sexy looks and good multimedia performance, but it also suffers from some annoying design quirks and connectivity restrictions that have us holding on to our money. With a 5-megapixel camera, advanced multimedia capabilities, and GPS, there's no doubt that the Nokia N95 is one of the most feature-packed smart phones to date, but poor battery life and sluggish performance make it hard to justify the high price tag. There are a lot of good points to the Nokia N75, including UMTS support, advanced multimedia capabilities, and excellent call quality, but ultimately, its poor talk time battery life and other restrictions leave us disappointed in the smart phone.
