I'm thinking about getting a new toy. Nokia N93i However I don't have first hand experience with this phone. I saw it at Pac. Mall and I thought it was neat.
Anyone here played with it or own one right now? Do you like it? How is it overall? I priced them out on eBay for around $700US shipped and I'm not too sure about Pacific Mall.

no 850mhz band leave it alone unless u dont like making or gettin phone calls in malls, grocery stores, basements, wal-mart, canadian tire etc

also doesnt support HSDPA...expensive paperweight

imported_starboy869

****. I thought rogers was 900 not 850. Oh well.

* RM-156 (Dual-mode) WCDMA 2100
* EGSM 900/1800/1900 MHz


The N95 is looking much better now. :P

N95

rogers and all gsm providers in north america are 1900 or 1900/850...1900 signal is half ***, which is why back in the day when rogers changed over to gsm people complained about crappy signal strength and such...but since 850 has come into play rogers is where its at

so n95 isnt a much better choice...no hsdpa, no 850 = no go for me

On a end note just don't listen to one person's opinion.

imported_Zyepher

N95 is an AMAZING phone. Don't worry about HSPDA its absolutely useless unless you want to pay monster rape phone bills paying for actual megabites.

I agree, I wouldnt' worry about HSDPA...data is too expensive...

Wifi though

imported_starboy869

On the N95 Operating Frequency are

* WCDMA2100 (HSDPA), EGSM900, GSM850/1800/1900 MHz (EGPRS)
* Automatic switching between bands and modes


850 & 1900 which is cool. I could careless about the data plans. I only use data for for the odd quick gmail check or msn.

imported_Zyepher

95% of the people that demand for HSDPA don't accumilate a high enough use for it other than forum and msn.

imported_starboy869

Yeah I could careless about HSDPA. My tax return is burning a hole in my pocket and I decided to waste it on a fancy cell phone instead of some skyline gtr parts I need.

imported_Zyepher

I'm waiting for the new htc s720!!!!! freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

imported_Zyepher

If you do text here is a disgusting phone.

imported_starboy869

I just got thinking about the n93i again.

rogers has 800/850/1800, & fido is 900/1900

N93i is 900/1900

Rogers bought out fido. hmmmm

kwikb16a2

N73 is quad band.....what about the P990?? that thing is sick

imported_phuviano

WTF are you talking about?? Rogers and Fido are both 1900/850. I don't think any cell phone providers in north america have 800 or 1800.

I know your statement isn't true, because I used to be a cell phone junkie several years back, when the SE t68i was the shiznit.

If the n93i is 900/1900, then it would just run off the 1900 mhz band. It would not run off 900 mhz band because the provider would not support it.

btw, if your into cell phones, join howardforums. I bought so many new and used cell phones on there. Its really addictive, but eventually you might get over it like me.

imported_starboy869

I thought fide was 900/1900. late night research that has gone wrong

Cynikal.Mindset

indeed it has gone wrong my friend...rogers/fido is 1900/850

imported_starboy869

**** it N95 it is

imported_Zyepher
