Nokia has just launched their very first netbook, the Nokia Booklet 3G.
The Nokia Booklet 3G comes with an Intel Atom processor, plus a 10 inch LCD display, which Nokia are calling ‘HD ready’ so I presume it will be able to playback HD content.
Specifications and Features
Other specifications include integrated A-GPS, which will come with the Ovi Maps software, HDMI out, and a 12 hour battery, which sounds pretty impressive. The inclusion of A-GPS is particularly noteworthy as it allows for precise location tracking and navigation, making the netbook a versatile tool for both work and travel. The HDMI output is another strong feature, enabling users to connect the netbook to larger displays for presentations or media playback.
As the name would suggest, the Nokia Booklet 3G will come with built-in 3G/HSPA connectivity, plus WiFi, which will provide high-speed Internet access on the go. This makes it an excellent choice for professionals who need to stay connected while traveling. The 3G/HSPA connectivity ensures that users can access the internet even in areas without WiFi, making it a reliable option for remote work.
Design and Build Quality
The design of the Nokia Booklet 3G is sleek and modern, with a robust build quality that is typical of Nokia products. The netbook is lightweight, making it easy to carry around, yet it feels sturdy enough to withstand daily use. The 10-inch LCD display is compact but offers a clear and vibrant viewing experience, which is ideal for both work and entertainment.
Unfortunately, there is no word on pricing or availability as yet, but Nokia will be releasing more details on the Nokia Booklet 3G Netbook on the 2nd of September at Nokia World. Given the features and specifications, it will be interesting to see how Nokia positions this netbook in the market.
I have to admit it looks pretty good from the publicity shots, and the specifications seem decent as well. I suspect it will be using NVIDIA Ion graphics, which would provide a significant boost in graphical performance, making it suitable for light gaming and multimedia tasks. Let’s hope Nokia prices the Nokia Booklet 3G Netbook competitively, as it could be a strong contender in the netbook market.
