Evaluation in my collection: Brand New Swap – 10/10

About: The N79 has a somewhat more vibrant style compared to usual Nseries devices, with a rotated NOKIA logo(this would later appear on the Nokia N97). Nokia advertised the N79’s bold-coloured Xpress-on covers which change the software’s colour theme to the cover’s. It was also slim by Nseries standards and considered to be attractive.Other features include a 2.4-inch display, 369 MHz ARM11 processor, physical keylock switch, FM transmitter and the Navi wheel.

Release Year: 2007 | Release Price: ~750 EUR

It is the device used to demonstrate the AllSpark’s capability of turning any electronic device into a living robot. This phone turned out to be a Decepticon tiny but deadly robot.
The N93i used a different marketing strategy by incorporating Dallas based punk rock band Greyskull in its APAC campaign. Running an on-line competition in which contestants could submit their own videos to the band’s songs. Ads featuring the band Greyskull were run in newspapers and commercials on MTV Asia.
During the 2007 Cannes Lions Advertising Festival, camera crews using Nokia N93i devices tagged along with the Young Creative Film Competitors on their 48-hour mission to shoot a 30-second commercial, also using the Nokia N93i, for MTV SWITCH, a campaign from MTV Networks International designed to educate and encourage alternative options to help save the planet. With 40 hours of content filmed on the Nokia N93i, the footage was edited into an exclusive behind the scenes documentary, “Short Film Shootout: Cannes”, which was available for broadcast on MTV’s 61 TV channels across 161 countries on 20 December 2007.

Nokia N96
Evaluation in my collection: Great – 9.7/10
Nokia Codename: Lumiere
Life timer: 136h | Boxed: NO
Release Year: 2008 | Release Price: ~500 EUR
About: Nokia N96 is a high-end smartphone, announced by Nokia on February 11, 2008 at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, part of the Nseries line.The N96 runs on the updated Symbian OS v9.3 (S60 3rd Edition, FP2). It is compatible with the N-Gage 2.0 gaming platform and also has a DVB-H television tuner.
Compared to the popular Nokia N95 8GB, the N96 has a doubled flash storage capacity (16 gigabytes), dual LED flash in the camera, and has a slimmer design. However critics had negative views on the N96’s battery life and user-unfriendlyness and its downgraded CPU clock speed raised questions.It was one of 2008’s most anticipated mobile phones, but its launch was delayed and was only widely available from October 2008.It is thus considered to have been a commercial failure.Critics felt that the Nokia N85 provided more new additions compared to the N96 for much cheaper.Reviews when released: Mobile Review
