Nokia launched N96 US
The wait is finally over. Nokia's new flagship N-series device, the N96, is now available with US 3G frequencies through its New York and Chicago stores. This was confirmed after PhoneArena placed a call to their store in Chicago.
Although the powerhouse of a phone has the US 3G frequencies, it only supports 850/1900 MHz of the 3G spectrum, so again, T-Mobile customers are left in the loop while AT&T customers can utilize every aspect of the gain. A quick refresher of the N96 is as follows: it has a 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss lens and the ability to capture video at 30 fps. Along with the built-in 16GB of hard memory, the phone is also equipped with a microSD card slot. It comes with Wi-Fi as well.
Per Nokia, the N96 US has a price tag of $842.40. Amazon is offering it as a pre-order item for $705.99.
