Nokia N9: the World's Most Underrated Smartphone?

Posted by timothy on from the single-minded dept.

jrepin writes "Eighteen months ago, Nokia announced a smartphone unlike any other it has produced before. It was a proper smartphone, one that looked miles away from previous Nokia phones: it was sleek, modern and simple at the same time. The hardware was pretty modern, too; no underpowered processors with severely limited RAM issues to be seen here. And, it runs on an operating system that Nokia had announced dead months before the phone's announcement. This, ladies and gentlemen, is the Nokia N9."

    The iPhones have never been near the high end of pixel density. They like to claim that, but it has just never been true. Even an old HTC Rezound beats the iPhone and that Nokia you are talking about.

    Bullshit. The iPhone 4 with it's Retina display, had by far the highest pixel density of any phone of it's day (June 2010). The "old" HTC Rezound, whilst it in turn had the highest pixel density when it launched, that wasn't released till Nov 2011, a year and a half AFTER Apple's Retina display.
