Welcome to one of our first story on looking back at nokia greats back in the day.

We are preparing some articles on nokia’s past devices which some maybe forgotten about and some not.

While things are quite here in ireland at the moment before we announce some exclusives soon which we have been given we will look back at these great devices.

My Nokia N92 a RARE phone truly A GREAT never will be missed.

 

One thing this phone had was TV transmission technology which was  DVB-H – never took off here in ireland,nothing new there.Do you remember this technology?

I bought this the day it was released and it cost me a small fortune back then in 2005.

Today i believe they fetch the same price due to not been widely available ,nor refurbished,i do know two or three people that own one though,they should cherish this which im sure they do.

TWIST.

The N92 Was great a been able to twist and turn,it  gave a new meaning to phone design not the normal slider or candybar this was a cool way to impress the rest with the way you could use the phone in more than one way.

Even using this beast in a normal fashion the phone seemed big,it was bigger than most when things seemed to  been scaled down,today its reverse phones are getting bigger also getting better but the iconic design didnt bother any owners due to its unique form factor which was  clamshell

Im a music fan that listens to music on the go and this has two whopper speakers that gave a powerful punch it really stood out from other phones speaker output and you could happily leave the phone sat on table and let the speakers produce the magic sound they gave ,it was simply great for it time.

The phone never took off to well here and only one operator actually sold it ,i think due to its size people where put off by that,they never understood what the phone could do and the quality features it had even though it was pricey it was worth every penny sadly there was not enough marketing for this,even today we see little marketing which is disappointing,hopefully that will change,product knowledge and awareness is key to success .
