Evaluation of Nokia N9

As the first terminal equipped with Maemo system platform, the release of Nokia N9 (Parameter Picture Forum) is absolutely eye-catching. In addition to its most famous Saipan system, Nokia has another branch line that uses Linux platform. Such as the previous N8 and N81. This series was first used as a mobile internet device, and did not support the function of mobile phone, so the degree of attention has been tepid. However, with the exposure of Nokia's latest MID N9 this year, it has gained more attention. This machine has added telephone function and adopted the highest configuration of Nokia mobile phone at present. Now that we have the Chinese version of N9, what are the mysteries of Maemo 5?

3. The core selling point of the product:

The overall hardware upgrade speed is faster

A nearly perfect online experience. The front of the mobile phone is a 3.5-inch 16-megapixel TFT resistive touch screen with a resolution of up to WVGA(48× 8) pixels. It is the highest configuration in Nokia products at present, and the 3.5-inch screen is a blockbuster in display fineness. On the left side of the screen, except the receiver, an indicator light, a distance sensor, a sub-camera and a light sensor are arranged from bottom to top. There are no buttons on the right side of the screen, which is consistent with the style of tablet products such as N81.

The back of the mobile phone is made of frosted material. On the right, we can see that it is equipped with a 5-megapixel camera certified by Carl Zeiss and double LEDs to turn off the lights. The aperture range of the lens is between 2.8 and 5.2, and it is equipped with a horizontally pulling lens cover, which plays a very good role in protecting the lens, and the lens cover is looser than N97, so it is unlikely to cause misoperation. In addition, there is a bracket similar to N86 around the lens, but this bracket looks fragile and seems to be in danger of being broken.

2. Details: In the center of the upper edge of the fuselage is the power button of the mobile phone, which may be a bit awkward for friends who are used to conventional mobile phones. There is always a mistake that the power button is on the right side of the phone. Still need to adapt. There is a volume adjustment button on the left side of the power supply, and a photo shutter button and a long-lost red outside line sensor on the right side.

the left and right sides of the p>N9 are designed with common interfaces, such as the microUSB interface on the left, the unlock switch on the right, the 3.5mm headphone jack and the microphone. It is worth mentioning that this mobile phone is also equipped with stereo speakers, which are above the left and right sides respectively. The handwriting pen of this machine is located in the lower right corner of the mobile phone, which is very convenient to pull out and use. As a MID with the latest Maemo5 intelligent system, let's take a look at its strongest advantages.

1. surfing the internet:

for a classic Nokia internet device, the performance of the N9 is amazing. First of all, N9 supports WCDMA and wifi network access. It provides the basis for high-speed internet access for mobile phones. When browsing large-scale portal websites, N9 keeps smooth and supports the operation of multiple pages. The mobile phone supports flash9.4, and all the contents on the webpage can be displayed basically. In addition, N9 can also perfectly support social networking sites such as Kaixin.com (flash 9. is adopted in the farm), and can use the flash interface to "steal vegetables", completely getting rid of the disadvantages of wap operation on mobile phones, which is full of fun. With the support of 3G and wifi, Nokia N9 is almost the same as PC in browsing the web. It is better than all mobile phones on the market at present, which is one of the biggest advantages of N9.

2.Maemo 5 system:

This mobile phone uses Nokia's first Maemo5 operating system based on Linux platform, and it has attracted widespread attention from the machine friends since the day it was exposed. So what are the advantages of this mysterious system?

1) Interface:

This mobile phone has a sliding unlock button on the right side when it is operated horizontally, but when the mobile phone is locked, pressing the power button on the top of the mobile phone will have a sliding unlock interface. After entering the main interface of the mobile phone, you can switch to the interface with different functions by sliding left and right, with four pages by default. The program buttons on different desktops can be modified, and the overall operation fluency is good, but it still feels not as fast as the iPhone 3Gs.

The background of the mobile phone is composed of four continuous patterns. When sliding left and right, the background maintains a very good integrity, so there is a strong three-dimensional feeling between the desktop icon and the background. Pressing the power button in the main menu will bring up a menu button with six options, while a little time on the screen will bring up an interface for setting parameters of power lights such as network. In addition, the unique interface of the mobile phone is that all the menus of the mobile phone do not use the return button, and as long as the blurred background next to the touch is touched, it will automatically return to the next level. Another great feature of Maemo5 system is that it supports multi-task background operation and can be switched at any time through preview. In the actual experience, even if there are more than a dozen applications in the background, the operation remains smooth. The application started a little slower than 2 minutes ago, and there were some cases where the webpage didn' t respond. But this is beyond the scope of normal operation. Compared with Saipan system, this function has made great progress.

2) Software:

Nokia N9 adopts the latest Maemo 5 operating system, so its software richness needs to be improved. There are still some small programs and games that can be used in Maemo select on the desktop. There are 11 categories, and the installation is also very convenient. Select and then download the last installation, and the overall operation will be completed in one go. 1) Music and video:

As a MID full of business flavor, the entertainment function of Nokia N9 gives people a more comprehensive feeling. First of all, there are music, video and Internet radio in the menu of the media player. When the music is played, the interface is simple and consistent with the style of Maemo system. With the 3.5mm headphone jack, the N9' s sound quality and headphone feel are satisfactory, which is valuable for a business model.

in terms of video, due to the brand-new hardware architecture, the Nokia N9 has obviously improved the compatibility of video format and resolution compared with N97 and other models, and has good support for VGA(64*48 pixels) and higher-level 72*48 pixels video. But it is still beyond the reach of videos above 72P p. But according to official website's introduction of OMAP 343 processor, it can support 72P video, so N9 still has certain potential.

2) taking photos: the music and video files of this mobile phone, including pictures, are displayed by thumbnails. In the N9 camera function, it can support both widescreen and standard modes, and the resolution of widescreen photos can reach 3.5 million pixels. In the function menu, N9 can set parameters such as white balance, iso, exposure flashing light, etc. Nokia N9 added the phone function for the first time in previous Nokia tablets. In terms of short messages, the mobile phone can only be input through the full keyboard, and there is no so-called virtual keyboard on the screen, and the display mode of short messages is similar to that of iPhone (mobile phone surfing the Internet). And at the back, you can add an image expression. In the actual test, it seems that the ordinary mobile phone can't display the expression normally, and it may only be realized by both mobile phones using Maemo system.

During the call, besides dialing horizontally, the mobile phone can finally see the vertical display. After all, it is very inconvenient to answer the phone horizontally without using headphones. The contact person's head can be displayed in the call interface, and photos can be set, or the system defaults to several cartoon icons for selection.

in addition, the e-mail function of N9 is also very complete, and users can use it with simple settings. Click on the blue icon in the upper left corner of the phone to enter the main menu. The icons here are familiar, and they all follow the classic style of Saipan. You can set the phone as a whole by clicking on the control panel.

There are three items in the options, namely personalized selection, connection setting and general setting, which users can manage uniformly here. In addition, for some desktop settings, as long as the main menu is pressed continuously, the corresponding setting interface will pop up, and parameters such as theme and background can be set. Nokia N9 also has GPS positioning function and supports A-GPS for navigation. However, although the system has been translated into Chinese, the location display in the map is still in English. In addition, Nokia N9 is equipped with a BL-5J lithium battery with 132 mAh, which is the same configuration as Nokia X6. It stands by for more than one day in normal practical process, and its performance is average.

in other aspects, the N9 also supports alarm clock, drawing, FM transmitter, games and other utilities, and the overall performance is very comprehensive. In addition, the Nokia N9 can be connected with the Nokia PC suite. It is very convenient to transmit data or install software. Nokia N9 is the first Maemo 5 system mobile phone in history, with OMAP343 6MHz CPU, 32G storage capacity and TF card expansion. It is the one with the highest configuration among Nokia products at present. In actual operation, although it doesn't feel as smooth as the excellent fluency of the iPhone 3Gs, it can at least guarantee 9% fluency under multitasking. In addition, as the latest system, more innovative design has been adopted in the interface. Although this mobile phone is very popular at present, there are still some problems, such as the sim card of the mobile phone is sometimes automatically unrecognized, there is no official text version and the software platform is relatively weak. In short, as a brand-new product, we should have more inclusiveness, and I believe Maemo will have better performance.
