Nokia N9 is the phone is beautifully designed with the dominant colors, and is the first phone in the world equipped with the monitor buttons.

Design

N9 pretty impressive sight first monolithic design with smooth and does not have a button on the surface. The device achieved by the minimalist elegance but no where to be and in the products of Nokia.

Polycarbonate is made from solid materials with dimensions 116.45 x 61.2 x 12.1 mm and weighs 135 g. Nokia N9 has a surface curved claws on both sides with thinner thickness decreased from 12.1 to 7.6 mm. There are three colors to choose from are red, blue and black ....

The physical buttons are omitted for the maximum limit in the two volume control and a power button / screen lock on the right.

The machine is a 3.5 mm headphone jack along with a microUSB port for charging and data synchronization; next microsim like a slot on the iPhone 4. Drawback is the plastic cover of the microUSB sometimes new plays to be pressed down.

Nokia's Smartphone running Meego owns two camera, behind the 8MP autofocus camera with dual-LED flash and Carl Zeiss optical lens; front camera is for video call. Interestingly, before camera is arranged at the bottom right of the screen, not at the top as usual.

Bottom edge is where the layout of the phone speaker.

Configuration

The phone also supports strong 3G connection with support for up to 14.4 Mbps download and 5.7 Mbps upload and work with most of the network bandwidth. The phone is equipped with accelerometer sensor, distance, sight and GPS. There is no FM radio but equipped N9 short range communication technology NFC enables easy connection with peripherals. NFC could replace the pairing process of the cumbersome traditional equipment by letting two devices close together they will automatically connect.

N9 also supports Wi-Fi n standard post. To get a smooth seamless design is also to accept the N9 does not support external memory card slot and can not remove the pin. Instead, Nokia offers two versions of the N9 internal memory is 16 GB version and a 64 GB version for those who like to store more multimedia content.

Meego

As the combination of Nokia's Maemo platform and Intel's Moblin platform, Meego was developed with the aim for both PC and phone market. But version 1.2 is built for Nokia N9 development as an independent section, codenamed Harmattan. Unfortunately, not developing fast enough Meego makes Nokia's CEO Stephen Elop has decided to use Microsoft's operating system (Windows Phone) smartphone's next for the company. Thus N9 will be the last Nokia smartphone to use Meego.

The main interface screen.

Like IOS, there are no widgets but Meego is designed to run optimally for multitasking and social networking with three screens: the first screen includes a menu of all installed applications on the popular Facebook , Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja, Zing, Skype ... Monday is the multitasking screen displays thumbnails of running applications arranged in chronological order that users access and you can zoom in or zoom out to make it easy to work with these applications. Finally, a warning screen with weather, email, calendar, alarms ... and updates from Facebook and Twitter.

With the running application you can drag from any corner of the screen from any direction to exit and return to the main screen or you can choose quick pull down to close it without running in the background. On the other hand when opening any application if you want to fully close the window can be minimized by keeping it and click on the "X" in red at the top.

Option "Close All" will close all applications and back screen multitasking.

Conclusion

With N9, Nokia has marked his comeback with a compelling software and great hardware. However this product will encounter difficulties when launched with Android and iOS rivals in the market. One of the factors that N9 does not have many expectations concerning the future of the applications for the platform Meego when Nokia is focusing primarily on Windows Phone (WP). Can not blame the change Nokia's strategy when it comes to WP and neglect Meego. WP give them a platform, ecosystem development and in particular the strong support from software giants Microsoft. Unfortunately, only slightly Meego N9 and too late to become the first step of the WP's upcoming smartphone running Nokia. However, Nokia N9 is always worth buying the product in the year for the young personality.

Microsoft lowering the standard device configuration Windows Phone 7

Some of the hardware configuration requirements as previously required to have a camera phone has been removed from the Microsoft Windows Phone 7 (WP7).

This move will help increase the number of mobile phones running version Mango's mobile operating system of Microsoft Windows Phone 7. In the first iteration of the operating system, Microsoft requires slightly higher with the phone running WP7, but the conditions now seem to be easing.
These high standards can be difficult for a number of phone manufacturers, thus narrowing the ability of users to experience the new platform. If a company is to produce hardware like Apple is going a light, but behind this software providers, such as Microsoft or Google with Android with WP7, is definitely a problem.
When the new Windows Phone 7 was introduced, Microsoft has a clear message to higher requirements for the hardware manufacturers with mobile operating system Windows Mobile's past. Some observers have endorsed it, saying that such would allow WP7 eliminate mess as is happening with Android since Google's operating system appears.
As can be seen, when the whole range of hardware manufacturers competing for market share on the same platform operating system, they will need to make a difference to their equipment than competitors . That usually means there will be some tweaking with the program, which can lead to crippling applications, the battery is "consumed" quickly, and generally reduce the value of consumers' experience with the phone.
Why does Microsoft require less demanding WP7 phones have camera on the front? It is easy to see that it enables the manufacturer offers mobile environment more suitable for government and companies pay much attention to security.
Moreover, it also allows the supplier to produce the cheap smart phone. It will certainly appeal to the Microsoft's hardware partners, especially the company is aiming to push smartphones into the emerging market attention to low prices.
This is the concern of all manufacturers smart phones are selling their products to all over the world, including Apple, and that is why the observers that Apple is preparing to launch a low-cost iPhone model.
However, it seems that Apple's strategy is not inferior standard hardware, which is offering the old model at a discount. This strategy ensures the integrity of the label without making them lose value. It is a strategy that Microsoft should consider before WP7 brand can become overshadowed by the mobile phone provider is not trivial experience that companies want users to have WP7.
