Nokia 9300 Smartphone Review

The Nokia 9300 smartphone has been available in Europe for a few months already, and is now getting ready to be rolled out in the U.S. Designed for getting the work done "on the road", the Nokia 9300 features a full QWERTY keyboard and a 640x200 TFT display, and will use the BlackBerry Connect service for synchronizing email and other information, but unlike the Nokia 9500, it has no wi-fi connection capability.

The Register puts this smartphone to the test and in a Nokia 9300 review writes:

So it's a serious piece of kit - it just would rather you didn't notice it. It's the first time, out in the wild, that a Nokia phone will run RIM's BlackBerry Connect. (It will also run Nokia's own new enterprise mail software, or Cingular's version of Seven's email). Unlike models designed for Europe or Asia, it supports the 850Mhz frequency, and we can't stress what a difference this makes. For GSM users here in the US, this is becoming pretty much mandatory. read more 

A thorough Nokia 9300 Communicator review by MobileBurn pointed out:

The Nokia 9300 has the same wide clamshell form factor that can be found in all of the Nokia Communicator handsets. But with dimensions of 133mm x 51mm x 22mm (5.2" x 2.0" x .9"), it is 15mm shorter, 6mm narrower, and 2mm thinner than the full sized 9500 model. While still on the long side, the 9300 is suddenly a lot more pocketable than any of the earlier models. Its weight is down, too: 169g (5.96oz) with SIM and MMC card. That makes it a whopping 55g (1.94oz) lighter than the 9500. The 9300 is the first Communicator within range of such devices as the Sony Ericsson P910. more

 

The Nokia 9300 Communicator smartphone will be available in the U.S. in November fro Cingular.
