📰 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 Piano Black | The Elusive Asian Edition
Quick View💎 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: Nokia N93i Piano Black – The Elusive Asian EditionIntroduced in early 2007, the Nokia N93i represented one of Nokia’s most ambitious creations, combining a unique rotating display, advanced imaging capabilities and a design unlike almost anything else on the market. While the silver version became the familiar face of the N93i, the elusive Piano Black variant tells a much more exclusive story.
Associated with the Asian market and rarely encountered compared to its silver counterpart, this striking black edition transforms the character of the device. Its deep, glossy finish gives the N93i a sophisticated, almost executive appearance, making it one of the most desirable visual variations of Nokia’s iconic multimedia flagship.
What makes this particular unit even more remarkable is its internal call timer, displaying exactly 0 hours, 0 minutes and 0 seconds. Although this alone cannot conclusively prove that a device has never been used, it is an exceptional detail for a surviving handset of this age and adds significantly to its appeal as a collector’s piece.
With its distinctive finish, uncommon market positioning and remarkably preserved usage record, this unit captures a fascinating chapter of Nokia’s golden era, when mobile phone design was bold, experimental and instantly recognizable.
Not simply another N93i – an elusive black interpretation of one of Nokia’s most extraordinary creations.

Nokia N93i Prototype B3 | The N00 Mystery

📰 Why this phone matters: Nokia N93i B3 Prototype – The N00 EnigmaBefore the Nokia N93i became one of the most recognizable multimedia flagships of 2007, it existed behind closed doors as an experimental device, undergoing the development and validation stages that would eventually shape the final commercial product.
This extraordinary unit is a B3-stage pre-production prototype, but what makes it particularly fascinating is the mysterious “N00” inscription on its front housing, replacing the familiar N93i model designation. A remarkable detail that immediately distinguishes it from standard retail units and offers a rare glimpse into Nokia’s internal development world.
Unlike a conventional production handset, this prototype carries visible evidence of its unfinished identity. The unusual N00 marking raises intriguing questions about the naming, identification and design decisions made during development. Whether it served as a temporary placeholder or an internal identification convention remains undocumented, adding an element of mystery to an already exceptional device.
For collectors, prototype stage markings and physical differences from commercial models are particularly compelling, as they preserve evidence of a device’s evolution. The combination of its B3 development status and unconventional front housing makes this unit a fascinating survivor from one of Nokia’s most innovative periods.
Before it was an N93i, this one carried another name: N00. A small inscription, an extraordinary piece of Nokia history.

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

Nokia NM156: NTT DoCoMo Japan Exclusive (1998, Pearl Olive)
Quick View💎 Rarity Index: A (Rare)
👁 Evaluation in my collection: Good – 8.5/10
⏱ Life timer: N/A | 📦 Boxed: NO
📅 Release Year: 1998 | 💰 Release Price: N/A
📊 Units Sold: ~60k
📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia NM156 is one of the rarest Japan-exclusive Nokia models ever created. Designed for NTT DoCoMo’s PDC digital network in 1998 and manufactured in Finland, this model represents a very unusual chapter in Nokia’s history, when the company produced hardware specifically for Japan and not for the global GSM market.Beyond its Pearl Olive finish and Japanese kana keypad, what makes this phone truly special is its documented production history. The internal Nokia type code NSY-3LX confirms the exact hardware platform used only for the NM15x PDC family, while the factory codes place this device in batch 048 of 1998, assembled in the Salo plant in Finland. With only 94 units assembled before this one in that batch, surviving examples like this are exceptionally difficult to find outside Japan.
Even more impressive, this particular unit still powers on correctly and allows you to navigate through the original menu despite the fact that PDC networks have long been discontinued. Functioning NM156 units are very scarce and highly sought after.

📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia rinGo was designed to be easy to use straight out of the box and was cheap to buy, due to special mobile carrier tariffs.[An ETACS version of the rinGo with minor design changes was launched in 1997 in the United Kingdom and Austria. It was the UK’s first pay as you go Nokia handset through Vodafone’s pay as you talk package. It was also sold in Thailand under the name Wave900.
In press releases it was also called a ‘concept’, a way of easily buying and using a mobile phone without operator registration. Nokia unusually created a unique “rinGo” brand and logo for it. ater in October 1998 a third (NHX-7) model was released for ETACS in Italy and Spain (the latter via operator Moviline). It featured the “Navi-key” like on the GSM Nokia 3110 and Nokia 5110 and had its top antenna positioned in the middle.
Nokia rinGo 3
The phones have the capacity to store about 60 contacts. Calculator, Watch and Calendar were pre installed on the handset.Nokia marketed original rinGo targeting women and children. However it gained a negative reputation and in Sweden earned the nickname “bimbo phone”, leading to low sales.Interest and popularity of the rinGo quickly faded and it has been largely forgotten since.
