Nokia 9500 is announced in 2004

Design

The 9500 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 222 grams and measuring 148 x 57 x 24 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 16 bit - color display which is a little milky, dim and uneven, as well as having lower resolution than usual.The display resolution 640 x 200 pixel ideal for small and smart phone.

The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker, while on the other side we find a dedicated camera button.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Nokia handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.

Ergonomics

The 9500 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, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.The most notable trait of the 9500 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

In the WAN department, the 9500 boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , Email client, Java MIDP 2.0, 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,bluetooth high speed small range wireless device.GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, and spacious phone book.

As previously mentioned, the 9500 is also equipped with a 0.3 megapixel camera support for picture-taking and audio/video recording, as well as an integrated MP3 player.The latter of which is also the reason for why the 80 MB of internal memory, which initially appears spacious, is quickly stretched to its limits. The 9500 also comes with an and Multi Media Card (MMC) expansion slot located under its battery,a 16-128 MB card comes bundled in the sales package, more space for images audio and video files, less time for PC and communication cable for updating internal memory, MP3 and MPEG4 are both formats which can be stored for playback on the Nokia 9500.

Performance

Audio quality on the 9500 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 1300 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 6 hours talk time or 300 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 195 minutes.

Availability

The Nokia 9500 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.

Conclusion

Nokia 9500 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.
