The Nokia N91 is a music phone designed for playing back audio tracks and other multimedia. At first glance, this handset looks a little like a cross between a Nokia 3230 and an 8800, but this is a very different beast, and much more similar in concept to the Samsung SGH-I300 or Sony Ericsson W800. Actually, at first glance it looks pretty unattractive and strange too, but don't let the strange looks put you off.. this is a very interesting device.
The key feature with the Nokia N91 is the 4Gb internal hard disk, which gives the N91 the largest capacity we've seen to date. There's also a two megapixel digital camera on the back. This is a 3G phone which means that downloading music tracks can be done at up to 384kbps, but surprisingly it also supports WiFi (802.11b and g). The N91 supports video calling in the conventional way with a secondary camera.
The screen is a fairly conventional 176x208 pixels in 262,000 colours, and the Nokia N91 also has Bluetooth and USB connectivity. There's an FM radio built in, which is always nice on this type of device, but unlike the Samsung there's no expandable memory which means that everything will have to be loaded on through a cable, Bluetooth or the WiFi connection. A sliding cover on the front of the phone protects the keypad, but it also acts as a control for the media player, a neat bit of design in our opinion.
At the heart of the N91 is the handset's media capabilities. It can play back MP3, AAC, Real, WMA and a whole host of other formats, combined with what appears to be a capable set of music applications running on top of the Symbian Series 60 operating system. The Nokia N91 also includes access to Nokia's ''Visual Radio'' music service over the phone's data network, and it can even record music directly through the handset's line-in, which should make the N91 nice and easy to use in that respect.
