Smartphone Nokia 6290

Short description: The Nokia 6290 is primarily valued for its versatility. With its relatively small size, it is capable of performing a lot of useful functions - various cellular communication standards are supported, there are powerful browsers and file players, and as many as two cameras. In a sense, the functionality of the 6290 is very similar to the performance of the Nokia N75 phone, the main difference here is in the marketing positioning of the devices in different markets. Specifications:

Nokia 6290 supports several standards - GSM 850/900/1800/1900 and 3G-standard UMTS (so-called WCDMA).
The body of the smartphone is made of plastic. On sale there are black and silver versions, both look quite predictable within the framework of the general Nokia concept for phones of this kind - that is, modest, but beautiful in its own way. As is often the case with "expensive" and not very plastics, the body requires careful handling and care - plastic panels can leave fingerprints.
Nokia 6290 is made with a folding body, so there are two screens. The main display is based on TFT LCD and can display up to 16+ million shades of colors. Display 2.2 inches in size, resolution 240x320 pixels. In general, its quality is not satisfactory when working with any applications, however, it is best to use a smartphone in the shade. Additionally, above the keyboard there is a special sensor that changes the backlight level of the display depending on the intensity of illumination.
An additional display by old standards would easily pass for the main one. Its resolution is 128x160 pixels, 262k colors are displayed. For most basic functions, you do not need to open your smartphone - the media player is controlled through the additional display, you can read text messages, view missed calls, etc. When using voice dialing and keys on the external panel of the 6290, you can not open it for weeks.
Fans of the Symbian operating system are most pleased to use it - its version 9.2 is installed on the phone. However, users who have never dealt with it will also be quite easy to get used to.
The smartphone is equipped with two speakers, allowing you to play various 3D sound effects. The playback quality is excellent, but many are not able to hear the declared `three-dimensionality` of the sound. Through a wired headset, the sound is also reproduced perfectly. The only drawback is that A2DP support is not provided, so stereo with bluetooth does not work.

Camera:

Cameras on the phone. On the main panel of the phone there is a small camera for video calls, on the rear panel - the main 2-megapixel device. The main camera is good for what it is. She has no other special advantages, if not to call digital ZOOM as such.
The maximum video resolution is 320x240, the recording is made in 3GP format with a frequency of 15 frames maximum.

Media:

The smartphone has a simple MP3 player with support for standard music formats. It can work both in the background and in normal mode, in addition, there is a simple equalizer.
The FM receiver, when using a conventional headset or speakers, operates in stereo mode. When streaming music through the speakers, you must leave the headphones plugged in as they are used instead of an antenna. Unfortunately, the reception power is somewhat limited.
Quick Office application allows you to view several formats of MS Office files - doc, xls, ppt.

Battery:

Estimates of Nokia 6290 battery life vary greatly - from 1 to 5 days. It largely depends on how you use your phone. Naturally, when working with media content, the user spends much more energy.
