The latest addition to the range is Nokia’s first device running Maemo 5, a new operating system is the best wide format Nokia Internet Tablet, and they were connected to an increase in telephone chassis. With a large 3.5 inch screen and sliding QWERTY keyboard, it is also a serious packing powerful engine under the hood to power things. If the N900 shed the image of aging Symbian and Nokia together at the next level, which, like the iPhone line?

The first thing you notice about the N900 is its size. It is certainly safe to 110.9 x 59.8 x 18mm, weighs 181g and that means it does not go to a slimming contest to win either. But it should be noted that Nokia has not even said that the N900 phone, a successor to the N97 or something to that effect – he sees it as a super-charged Internet Tablet with phone capabilities, rather than the reverse.

This does not mean that it is not his phone-related charms, but you need to know what you get with the N900 – There is a joy to pirates and has a large screen for the Internet, but who like to the Hero compare HTC is much, much more important.

But with great size and great stability, the N900 feels good in your hand. Slide the QWERTY keyboard, and even if it should feel like the central area to be larger, it is a movement with a positive feeling very strong. The large screen dominates the device, and for good reason – the keyboard is an ancillary activity as a key addition to the whole experience.

The exterior of the phone feels very strongly – as already mentioned the rule of the screen, it leaves no space for physical keys – we’re not near a Nokia phone, this not one phone call and use the menu key to our happiness.

The exterior of the phone are (the keys and we believe that some of these may be the wrong place). The top of the phone (if it is in landscape mode, you will make 99 per cent of time should be held), from left to right, up / down the volume button, the button’s central square power and speed shutter camera, too.

And – we know you love them – it is an infrared port on the N900 too. Infrared! We have not seen that in the year, and we’re not even sure if it ever really need on any phone, but couple that has the adapter for charging in the old box and the N900 with a sensitivity very old school.

But digging a little deeper and you’ll see why. We have pointed out, against a “lover” device, according to Nokia, and while the manual indicates that this port is not dominated all pre-installed applications, it can be used by developers. This means that the N900 has the ability to do things like a universal remote, which is pretty cool indeed.

Scoot round on the right side and the lock button you will find a small square button on the cursor. Here we have the biggest problem – to find the button with your finger requires that you mix the phone in his hand a little.

Among them are the headphone jack, which is slightly raised, flush with the connectors allow. Given the amount of phones these days have a rounded base, so that the exposed headphone port is a welcome change.

But they should be put is a problem that is plugged in holding the phone with the headset, it was very uncomfortable with the plug is in the way you want to keep.

Both the right and left stereo speakers sit, with few sounds pretty decent for such a device. Also on the left side of the micro USB slot with no coverage and will probably be easily filled with bits is (we have no idea what that bit, but we know), they live in the pocket.

We may not see their presence on the N900, and not really a need for them, but when you’ve got a display of resistance that you could use and, at times bizarre, you can not make icons or whatever.

On the back of the phone is the camera and tripod. However, the sliding lens cover the camera is fairly stable and the camera well and beautifully packaged close to the chassis.

But in hand, it feels somehow right. If you have a Smartphone experts (and we assume that you are probably because you’re looking at the clumsy, powerful and N900), then you’ve probably been in a touch screen – and we are so, it well used as we often forget Slide the keyboard.

But if you do it just feels right in your hand, in the one and two-handed, even if used to print in landscape mode for almost everything is annoying, since there are times when you scroll through a list or any thing they are equipped with only one place, and it is not easy to do.

While the depth may not be ideal, or, as Hero-single operation can be called iPhone, not a problem to leave the phone overnight, even if it leaves a most unsightly bulge in his pants. But if you put a positive impact on things, keep them for security – you at least know that the phone will not be lost.

Boxes Nokia will soon be a fun extra gadget arena, and the N900 is no exception. We now have the rudimentary microUSB cable, a charger, a similar store here, no EIA (for Nokia) and so-so grouped in-ear earphones.

We say so-so, as they do not correspond to “correct” in their ears, but for most others in the box with a phone that they are much, much better, with a series of tips for different ear shapes in comparison as well.

In compliance with the new Nokia high-end cell phone tradition, there is also a TV out cable for the pump, what you got on the phone on a larger screen to share with your friends. And last but not least, a converter for not only the latest in a pin charger for Nokia, but also the most years of the donkey. Who would have a Nokia five years ago and then decide to find the movement N900 is beyond us, but it is always useful to cover the bases
