Thanks to Nokia’s GoPlay event in London, Nokia has finally announced their latest handsets. Though official photos of the gadgets already leaked the other day, now it is official. The new handsets are the Nokia N95 8GB, the Nokia N81 and Nokia N81 8GB plus another two XpressMusic handsets - the Nokia 5610, the Nokia 5310. Nokia launched new multimedia phones targeted to different groups – music, imaging and gaming.Nokia brought joy to all fans of the high-end Nokia N95 by announcing the exciting Nokia N95 8GB. The Nokia N95 8GB edition comes dressed in black and has undergone several changes. The main one of course is the thrilling memory capacity of 8GB. It is tech
nically 8.1GB as there are also 100MB of system memory for messages, ringing tones etc. The screen has also grown up from the 2.6" of the original to 2.8" in the new edition. The display still supports QVGA resolution and can show up to 16M colors. Nokia N95 8GB is powered by 1200 mAh Li-Ion battery as opposed to the rather modest 950 mAh in the original Nokia N95 - hopefully the new battery will be able to deal better with the phone’s energy needs. The weak battery was probably the most criticized feature of the original N95 model. The higher capacity battery on the other side has resulted in removing the lens cover. Luckily, the GPS is still present, regardless of the expectations that it will be sacrificed in order to make room for the extra memory. Instead the memory card slot is removed so transferring data through card-reader is no longer an option. Finally, another significant change in the smartphone's hardware has been made - the RAM is now double the size of the orginal to improve user experience with the browser or with multiple applications running in the background.
The Nokia N81 is again a Symbian-based smartphone. It comes quad-band GSM/EDGE and UMTS enabled and stands at 17.6 mm thickness and 140 g of weight. It boasts a 2.4" TFT display with QVGA resolution, stereo Bluetooth, Wi-Fi IEEE802.11 b/g with UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) support and dedicated gaming keys. Nokia N81 is the first device armed with the new N-Gage platform and it has plenty of memory. There are two editions of the handset to be produced - a vanilla one that comes with a mciroSD slot and a 1GB or 2GB microSD card in the retail package, and Nokia N81 8GB edition. Both will have 2 megapixel camera with flash (really disappointing for a multimedia device) for making snapshots or shooting VGA videos at 15fps and a secondary CIF one for video calls. There is also a microUSB port and a audio/video 3.5 mm port.
The Nokia 5310 XpressMusic is a music-dedicated handset based on the Nokia S40 platform. It features a 2.0” QVGA TFT display with ambient light sensor, stereo Bluetoot
