The Nokia N96 follows the dual-sliding N95 in terms of basic form factor, it adds a pair of gaming keys to the multimedia cluster on extra slide panel that can be used for N-Gage games. A 5 megapixel camera with auto-focus and Carl Zeiss lenses is accentuated by a dual LED flash that can also function as a video recording light.
This Nokia N96 is based on the Symbian S60 3rd Edition operation system, with Feature Pack 2, and sports a DVB-H digital TV receiver and innovative kickstand for watching video on the handset's beautiful 2.8" QVGA display. There are connection options aplenty, including quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900MHz) and dual-band WCDMA (900/2100MHz) as well as WiFi and support for HSDPA for high speed data connections.
A built-in GPS receiver works with the new Nokia Maps 2.0, preloaded on the Nokia N96, to keep you on the right path. Nokia's updated Share Online enables the Nokia N96 to automatically geotag your photos and upload them to Flickr or Share on Ovi so that the world can see where you travel. 16GB of internal flash memory and a microSD memory card slot with support for cards up to 16GB mean you'll never run out of space for photos, music, and games.
The N96 makes it easy to share your media with friends via a TV-Out cable and UPnP support. Nokia N96 is expected to start shipping in Q3 2008 with pricing set at 550EUR (US$802) before taxes and subsidies.
