Nokia N73 specification
so you’ll be sure whether to buy this phone or not.Nokia N73 is prepared by Nokia as one of its army to bring gaming experience once again to the mobile handheld, with its gaming platform N-Gage 2.0. Actually, Nokia has already tried its first attempt to introduce high quality games to its phone users with N-Gage Classic and N-Gage QD, which unfortunately, wasn’t quite successful that day. Now with Nokia N73 along with the other N series smart phones, Nokia wants to try again its luck to bring gaming dedicated smart phone to the users.
If we look at the
Nokia N73 Specification
, this phone surely is made as a gaming dedicated phone, although its design doesn't look like a gaming device.
N-Gage Extinction
Again, unfortunately, although Nokia second attempt to port high quality mobile games to its products was resulting with its success to attract giant game developers/publishers to port their popular titles to N-Gage 2.0, such as: Resident Evil 3D: Degeneration (Capcom), FIFA 2009 (Electronic Arts), Real Football 2009 (Gameloft), Assassins Creed (Gameloft-Ubisoft), Metal Gear Solid (Konami), and many more, it still didn’t get much attention and popularity it should get from public. That’s why, at the end of 2010, Nokia had to finally close down its N-Gage service and transfer all of its games to Ovi Store.

But anyway, this phone will surely offer everything you’ve ever dreamed about smart phone. It has 3G, Bluetooth, Infrared port, USB, 3.15 MP Camera, VGA video call camera, Video download, Photo/video editor, Stereo FM radio with the support of visual radio, Voice command/dial and it has the ability of Document viewer to display Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF files. Awesome!
Interface and Functionality
The screen also has its special treatment from Nokia. With the display support of TFT, 256K colors, everything that you see the 240 x 320 pixels screen resolution will be presented beautifully in a bright interface.
What makes this phone so special is because its screen has already supported with shortcut icon for applications, which can be manually set in the phone setting. So every time you want to open your favorite application, you just need to press the icon of your wished application without entering to the main menu, though Nokia has already implemented this feature across of its new phones.
Gaming Compatibility
Since gaming is one of the best features you will ever get in this phone, Nokia has already injected its Symbian OS 9.1, S60 3rd edition operating system with the power of CPU Dual ARM 9 220 MHz processor on performance aspect to run every Symbian game conveniently, and N-Gage games as well. It shows that Nokia N73 is really specifically built as a gaming platform, although its design doesn’t show that.
Nokia N73 Specification: Performance
Personally, we’ve already had our hands on of many N-Gage and Symbian games with Nokia 5700 XM. All the game run perfectly on this phone, but to be honest, playing games with horizontal view is not that fun because it is difficult to get used with the keypad, which is not specifically made for gaming. Anyway, worth mentioning that this phone has already been injected with java platform MIDP 2.0 version, which is pretty standard cell phone to run java applications and games.
Released in August, 2006, Nokia N73 provides some basic functionality, such as: stereo loudspeaker, 3.5mm headphone jack, hot swap for miniSD external memory.
Running out of data storage in 42 MB internal memory, you can also opt to buy miniSD external memory.
Nokia N73 Specification: Multimedia and Entertainment
Already equipped with stereo loudspeaker and 3.5 mm headphone jack clearly shows us that Nokia N73 is a really great phone to play music and video. All the media files across WMV/RV/MP4/3GP video formats and MP3/WMA/WAV/RA/AAC/M4A audio formats can be played conveniently with this phone.
Nokia N73 Specification: Battery Life
Providing battery life for more than 350 hours in stand-by mode and up to 6 hours in talk time, Nokia is sold in 3 different case covers at the phone shops: Silver Grey/Deep Plum, Frost White/Metallic Red and Black (Music Edition).
Conclusion
Based on the Nokia N73 specification above, we can see that Nokia N73 surely has many great things to offer to the users. Its compatibility to play high quality 3D games specifically made for Symbian is one of the best thing you will ever get from this phone.
