Nokia is still sinking: the N9 video shows it just doesn't get it

A TV ad for the aborted Nokia N9 has appeared online, giving smart fans a glimpse of Nokia's future if it had not connected with Microsoft.
18. May 2011Nokia C6-01 Reviewby Franz BicarThe Nokia C6-01 can not be at the top of the market for smart phones, it offers features that are far better than most units in the mid-range category. C6-01 features Nokia's clear black AMOLED displays and comes in a compact metal housing. The rectangular shape makes it comfortable to carry around in your hands or pocket. Its stainless steel gives the phone a solid appearance and protection against scratches. There are several physical buttons on the C6-01. You have dedicated call and end buttons below the screen, a menu button in the center, and a lock, volume, and camera controls to the right. On the flip side, you have an 8-megapixel camera with dual LED flash, which is, for most manufacturers, the standard today. C6-01-HD screen is a 3.2-inch AMOLED capacitive touch screen that supports 16 million colors and 360 x 640 pixels resolution.
Cheque out the clip itself belowNokia scrapped plans for what was purported to be the next in its Nseries phones and supposedly the first to run its much touted MeeGo OS after inking a deal with the Big M to make phones that run its proprietary Windows Phone 7 platform .
Furthermore, the screen covered by scratch-resistant glass Gorilla, which makes it almost unbreakable. As with most Nokia phones, is C6-01 packaged. You have quad-band GSM / EDGE and penta-band HSPA / WCDMA for use on European 3G networks. It can also work on AT&T and T-Mobile USA. Bluetooth 3.0, WiFi b / g / n, an FM radio, GPS / A-GPS and USB 2.0. It comes with a 2GB microSD card with support for 32 GB cards. Nokia C6-01 runs on the Symbian ^ 3 With Nokia's collaboration with Microsoft, I'm not too sure what will happen with Symbian. Still, the once largest mobile OS is now on a decline. Nokia made the promise to continue to drop Symbian phones, but most of its resources will most likely be focused on Windows 7 Phone development to compete with market leaders. Nevertheless, Nokia's Symbian OS-01 and C6 a solid smart phone. It does not have all the flash and polish of Ios or Android devices, but it can certainly compete.
The clip, which was picked up by PocketNow.com, confirms much of what we could have guessed quite a lot about the phone, as slide-out keyboard that's been the hallmark of the Nseries range and a 12-megapixel snapper.
Software preinstalled on the phone includes a calendar, calculator, file manager, recorder, Adobe PDF, Quick Office, Zip, Glossary, Message reader, Traveler, F-Secure, a music player, stereo FM RDS radio and Ovi Music.
But we get a good look at the much-rumored super sharp virtual panel and the newly renamed Ovi Suite of services.
C6-01's 8-megapixel camera is a nice addition to this mid range device.
Somewhat surprisingly, even if we get a gander at what appears to be a clean and polished user interface, it is not entirely clear whether it is MeeGo that we see or are about to land Anna patch for Symbian.
You can record videos up to 1280 x 720 resolution at 25fps.
But it is fascinating to think what could have been even more so. Loading ... 2 CommentsOnly view comments @ top10uk, May 18, 2011, via Twitter.

The only drawback is that its prone to blur when panning around.
As for taking pictures, make that C6-01 camera users to take quick and easy shots, with a single press camera shortcut, and little in the way of lag between pressing the button and the grip frame.
As a Nokia device, C6-01 solid and reliable.
Battery life is estimated at up to 720 minutes talk time or 420 hours when on standby.
C6-01 can make it through two days with push email turned on and moderate calls, messages and browser user.
