Some of our readers may have missed the review that we did over twitter at the end of May so here are our observations about the Nokia N900 as they appeared on twitter.
#n900 camera a little disappointing, 5mp but none the clearer.. maybe Nokia should look at improving their in built lensTue May 25 2010 11:18:53 (W. Australia Standard Time) via web |

| @MeeGoDevelopers yeah i agree.. i was trying to see if resizing the contacts was possible but doesn't seem like #n900 allows that yet..Tue May 25 2010 11:17:48 (W. Australia Standard Time) via web in reply to MeeGoDevelopers |

| #n900 In dialing mode, you can also go to the contacts list, with helpful "shortcuts" on the side such as A-C, D-F to reduce scrollingMon May 24 2010 11:00:51 (W. Australia Standard Time) via web |

I have the N900 and the battery life is the aspect that is most annoying. I thought it would improve after the last update in software but it did not. I have done most everything possible to lengthen battery life. I have 2G-3G switcher and GSM seems to be better, turned off the WI FI, turned off the bluetooth, set the screen brightness to 2 bars from 5 bars, deleted apps that will drain batteries like Facebook notifications, etc...
ReplyDeleteI also noticed the lag on N900 and I realized that CONVERSATIONS app seemed to be the culprit. Conversations keeps all the text messages, all the chats I do on gmail chat, Facebook chat etc. I get text message notification from Facebook too and so that was piling up on CONVERSATIONS. So I had to delete each conversation.
I do like it that I can chat with Facebook friends using Nokia Conversations app on N900. on the E63 I had to use someone else app to do that and that was limited to the first 400 friends...
Odd that Conversations is not linked with Yahoo Messenger chat, since Nokia and Yahoo seemed to be together and made a deal to support one another.
