    📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia N93i features a 3.2-megapixel camera, Carl Zeiss optics, 3x optical zoom and digital video stabilization. The ability to create “DVD-like videos” at 30 frames per second with MPEG4 technology and share them on the 2.4-inch display. The Nokia N93i can be connected to a compatible TV using direct TV out connectivity or via Wireless LAN and UPnP technology. The N93i also features a digital stereo microphone, music player and FM stereo radio, dual mode WCDMA/GSM and triband GSM coverage on up to five continents (EDGE/GSM 900/1800/1900 + WCDMA 2100 MHz networks).An N93i is seen in the 2007 movie, Transformers. 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 N93i Black

    💎 Rarity Index: S (Ultra Rare)

    ⭐ WOW Factor: The first Nokia phone seen in the movie Transformers in 2007

    👁 Evaluation in my collection: BNIB – 10/10

    🕵 Nokia Codename: Gundam Shrink

    ⏱ Life timer: 08s | 📦 Boxed: NO

    📅 Release Year: 2007 | 💰 Release Price: ~750 €

    📊 Units Sold: ~500k


    📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia N93i in Black is one of those Nokia colourways that completely redefines the device character. While the silver version feels openly consumer facing, the deep glossy piano black finish gives this model a far more discreet executive and almost prototype grade presence. This is a look that was never widely seen in circulation and is precisely why experienced collectors actively hunt for it. Introduced in early 2007, the N93i did exist in several colours, but the black variant was produced and distributed in noticeably smaller quantities and appears far less frequently on the secondary market, especially in untouched condition. This particular unit is especially remarkable as it shows 0 minutes and 0 seconds on the internal call timer, a detail that strongly suggests the device was never used beyond factory testing and places it closer to a preserved time capsule than a typical collectible phone. In the current collector landscape, where most surviving N93i units show heavy wear, replaced housings, or visible usage, an unused black N93i stands out as a rare survivor from Nokia peak design era, representing a moment when premium materials, restrained colour choices, and long term durability defined what a flagship device was meant to be.

  • Nokia N95 8GB BNIB: “Alderaan”.The Multimedia Powerhouse That Defined a Generation

    💎 Rarity Index: B (Uncommon)

    ⭐ WOW Factor: The first Nokia phone with a built-in Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver

    👁 Evaluation in my collection: BNIB – 10/10

    🕵 Nokia Codename: Aino

    ⏱ Life timer: 0 | 📦 Boxed: YES

    📅 Release Year: 2007 | 💰 Release Price: ~500 €

    📊 Units Sold: ~4M


    📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia N95 8GB (RM-320) is widely regarded as the definitive and most perfected version of the original N95. This particular unit is BNIB, untouched since it left Nokia’s factory in Finland, making it one of the most desirable variants ever produced.

    While the first N95 shocked the world with dual-slide controls, GPS, Wi-Fi and a 5 MP Carl Zeiss autofocus camera, the N95 8GB went far beyond a simple memory upgrade. It is in fact a deep hardware refresh disguised as a cosmetic revision.

    Internally, the RM-320 uses a redesigned motherboard with improved power management, a new memory configuration and an integrated 8 GB soldered flash package. According to engineering documentation referenced on LPCWiki, this redesign required new trace routing, a different memory controller setup and a strengthened slider rail structure. This makes the N95 8GB a significantly more advanced device under the hood than the N95-1.

    The device also introduced hardware-accelerated 3D graphics via the PowerVR MBX Lite core, working together with the OMAP 2420 platform and its DSP media engine. At the time, this combination created one of the earliest smartphones capable of true console-like graphics and smooth video playback.

    Display size also increased to 2.8 inches, giving the phone a more modern look and better multimedia usability. The removal of the microSD slot was not a downgrade but a design restructuring: Nokia shifted to internal storage specifically to improve performance, stability, transfer speed and reliability.

    The N95 8GB also benefited from Nokia’s Location Platform 1.0, enabling A-GPS, offline vector maps and early positioning APIs. This was years before modern mobile navigation became standard, making the N95 series one of the earliest pioneers of smartphone location services.

    For collectors, the Finland-made RM-320 units are the most desirable. Initial batches were produced in relatively small volumes before manufacturing was relocated. Being BNIB and Finnish-built puts this piece in the highest tier of collectible Nseries devices.
