Small and Smart: The New Nokia N75

Snapshot by Michael Oryl on Tuesday September 26, 2006.

Today Nokia launched the N75, the smallest member of the Nseries of multimedia handsets. This folder style handset sports a large 2.4", 320x240 (QVGA) display that is capable of 16 million different color shades, and makes use of a smaller reflective display on the outside for navigating through the music player application.

Highlights include a 2 megapixel digital camera that can record video at up to 15fps (frames per second), landscape mode playback for photos and videos, and a micoSD memory card slot that can augment the built-in 40MB of storage with up to 2GB of additional headroom.

The N75, like most of the Nseries handsets, has a full suite of connectivity options built-in that range from 802.11b/g WiFi to dual-band, North American spec UMTS/HSDPA connectivity and Bluetooth 2.0. Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support is also included, which means that the device should work in most parts of the world.

Nokia expects the N75 to be available initially in the US during Q4 of this year. There is no word on carrier support or pricing at this time.
