Nokia 9210i is announced in 2002
Design
The 9210i is an incredible looking handset, totally unique and, in our spot poll, a real object of lust for both sexes of all ages. Weighing in at 244 grams and measuring 158 x 56 x 27 mm, it's compact, while not featherweight. It's shorter and narrower than one would expect, and thicker, too, thanks to the unique design. The 4096-color display is dim, not very bright and crisp, but is a far step above the very dim 256-color versions on even the most recent Nokia models.The display resolution 640 x 200 pixel ideal for small and smart phone.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker. Lacking LEDs of any kind, however, the display - combined with vibration and audible alerts - is the 9210i's only way of notifying users of new messages and missed calls. This is common for all Nokia handsets, requiring users to inconveniently have to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting rather than just glance at it.
Ergonomics
The 9210i is not comfortable for hold in ones hand because it is too wide.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Nokia handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, giving it a cheap feel while oddly designed buttons, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.The most notable trait of the 9210i is of course the way in which it expands from an ordinary mobile phone with a numeric keypad to a fully fledged messaging device with a QWERTY keyboard.
Features
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Nokia 9210i has to offer: there's also support for HSCSD, SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , Email client, Java MIDP 1.0, a voice recorder, FAX/Modem, Loud Speaker, all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of infrared old wireless device,HSCSD support gives more speed when you browse with your mobile browser,and spacious phone book.
As previously mentioned, the 9210i is also equipped with , as well as an integrated MP3 player.The latter of which is also the reason for why the 20 MB of internal memory, which initially appears spacious, is quickly stretched to its limits.
Unfortunately, neither Memory Stick Duo format or any other method of memory expansion is supported by the 9210i, meaning users find themselves drawn by the MP3 playback capabilities will also quickly - and repeatedly - drawn to their PC and USB cable for updating ones playlist.
Performance
Audio quality on the 9210i was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 1300 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 4 hours talk time or 230 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 195 minutes.
Availability
The Nokia 9210i is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Nokia 9210i is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Nokia design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
