1. In March 2010, I blogged about a new high-end Nokia Eseries smartphone running Symbian^3 called the E7-00.
2. At that time, information about it is not available that much. We can only guess and shoot in the dark. But I managed to scourge some very interesting specifications of the E7-00 such as the 1024MB ROM, Microsoft Communicator built-in, 256MB RAM, and so on.
3. Today, the good folks at Negri Electronics posted 3 new photos of a real E7-00 but they believed it’s an Nseries.
4. Whether it’s an Nseries or Eseries, we wouldnt know until it’s announced. I will leave that open to debate. But for your information, Nokia N8-00 is the last Symbian powered Nseries. All future Nseries will use MeeGo OS.
5. I dont want to comment much on the photos. Suffice to say it does resemble what shown to me in early 2010. The QWERTY is N97 Mini-like and it’s definitely powered by Symbian^3.
6. Lets get the facts straight, again. It’s not Nseries. It’s Eseries. And will be announced as E7-00.
7. To recap, here is what I posted as the specifications of E7-00 :
- hybrid design (touchscreen and QWERTY)
- 4 rows QWERTY keyboard
- 4 inch AMOLED capacitive tilting touchscreen supporting multitouch and gestures
- (maybe) using snapdragon processor
- 256 MB of RAM
- 1024 MB of ROM
- 16 GB of internal storage
- microSD slot
- 3.5 mm audio jack
- 8 megapixel camera with LED flash (no Xenon, no Carl Zeiss optic)
- HD video recording
- No HDMI output
- Microsoft Office Communicator Suite included
- Symbian^3 goodness
- availability in August or September
- super thin at only around 13.8mm
- anodised aluminium body
- 1200 mAH unremovable built-in battery
- same design philosophy as the N-800
8. I say, bring it on!!!
