Nokia E90 Communicator Unlocked Phone with 3.2 MP Camera, 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS, Media Player, and MicroSD Slot--U.S. Version with Warranty (Mocha)

I upgraded to an E90 after 1.5 years using a Nokia 9300 to it's limits.My impression is that they made a list of every single complaint I had about the 9300 and addressed each of them! It's a fantastic cell phone and I love it.- on the 9300 I didn't even bother looking at the outside S40 screen, I opened it each time even to place a call; with the E90, switching seamlessly from screen to screen just by opening and closing the phone, I find myself using the outside screen more and more, I even T9 type text in the numeric keypad!... the outside screen is great for one hand operation, great not to call too much attention to a full qwerty phone when I don't want to and great for the casual email read... I think if I didn't have the option of switching to the internal big and high-resolution screen I'd find myself cursing the QVGA outside screen, but knowing I have the option of a big screen at any time makes me more tolerant to the smaller resolution outside screen and I use it a lot- the keyboard back-light is something you don't use all the time but when you do you realize how incredibly great it is- the inside screen, with even higher resolution than on the 9300 is absolutely great- the keyboard could be a little softer but the truth is that I find myself making less typing mistakes than with the 9300; the new layout is much better and the "joystick" much more precise- vibrating alert is great but I miss the timed mode that makes it come back to the ringing General profile at a specified time- the camera could have an optical zoom but it's good enough like it is... 640*480 30fps video is great- sound recording and playback has very good quality- the interface to the WiFi interface and to the GPRS/EDGE/3G APNs is great and makes me confident I'm in control of what is being used or not, unlike some complaints I heard with WM6 that you suddenly find yourself using EDGE when you wanted wifi, etc- the GPS and Nokia Maps is awesome but I also use Google Maps a lot with it- firmware/software upgrade through PC Suite is a blessing- I had a 9300 (no WiFi) and an unlimited data plan, I find myself using GPRS (or EDGE or 3G) data much more often than WiFi in the E90 but in some situations, specially when you are away from your country and GPRS data is expensive, Wifi is very much welcome- the 9300 Internet browser was a joke... very slow! when I found Opera Mini for it I never looked back to the internal browser; on the E90 the internal browser is very good, and the ability to play Flash and even YouTube video is very interestingThe single complaint I have about it is that it's S60 and not S80... the larger availability of software is welcome but I miss having a menu, I miss having more qwerty keyboard shortcuts, I miss the more elaborate S80 Calendar application...Not S60/S80 related:The few keyboard shortcuts it has are totally undocumented, I can't understand why.Another complaint is the lack of a "open new window" command on the Internet browser... it does that when you click a link that instructs is to open a new window, but this command is not in the browser interface! I'd also like the Back command not to reload the page... would make it faster!Last point: don't make the mistake of buying this phone and using a limited or expensive data plan, you'll be missing a lot!

Not good

Gift

I bought an E90 in the hopes of supplementing (actually replacing) the HTC 7501 I currently use.When I first got the phone, I was so excited until I started trying to use it. I never realized how much I use the touch screen for!I then tried to browse the Internet with the browser - definitely not as nice as Opera Mobile 8.65.The final straw was the email client ... I couldn't get it to display the HTML emails I get (which is 80+%).I decided to give up as I would never warm up to the included software - much weaker than what comes with Windows Mobile 6 (not including the fact that there are many third party Windows Mobile programs to supplement / replace any of the standard ones).So, I boxed it up and returned it to Amazon for a refund.I am going to wait until the Fall and replace my HTC 7501 with a Sony X1 phone.

Good

I have been using this phone around one year and a half. But if i compare to my previous nokia 9210i this phone could not take overall advantage over my previous nokia. The following point are the advantages and disadvantages of this phone compare to my previous nokia 9210i:Advantages over nokia 9210i:- An internal memory is large enough for me to use (128 mb) which I could have more contact and install more application as I need.- The screen color is improve to 16 million color which is very to view the picture.- The sound device has been improve (the quality of the sound).- More feature: Vibration, Camera, Radio, Bluetooth and wireless lan also included.- The connection to the computer is improve by the USB port.- The battery life is long enough for me to use (4 days fo ra single charged).- The phone has a strong connection between its part when I open its cover.Disadvantage over nokia 9210i:- The size is smaller than nokia 9210i.- The keyboard is too narrow and very hard to type a message.- The port of the louder speaker is put behind the phone, so it is very difficult for me to listen to the phone when i open it cover and have a conversation.That is my expereince for using this mobile phone.

Most versatile phone I ever owned.Does everything you want, and a whole lot more to boot.This is year 2014!

I bought this smart phone and sold it within 8 months, I bought it as all in one smart phone, but unfortunately I was very disappointed. Very, very slow with 2GB memory card, also it doesn't support most common Audio\Video files such as WMA, WMV, AVI, MPEG and (MP3\WAV) some sound channels and rate. Slow application loader and file explorer. The battery's life 90 minutes maximum when browsing the net with full charge. If you are looking for a smart phone or PDA, choose the HTC.
