The Nokia N91 is the closest mobile phone that Nokia produce to an ipod. It comes equipped with a 4GB hard drive, equivalent to that of an ipod Nano. In storage terms the Nokia N91 can hold up to 1000 songs and represents the first real steps of useful convergence between mp3 players and mobile phones.

Nokia have really considered the implications of having an MP3 player on a mobile phone, rather than just adding taking it on as an additional feature like so many other mobile phone manufacturers do. The phone supports a wide range of formats including MP3, AAC and AAC+. There is an inbuilt play list management function that makes it easy to find and tag your favourite songs. There is a dedicated music player key, enabling you to switch between traditional mobile phone functions and the music player.

A feature that is really appreciated on the Nokia N91 is the 3.5mm audio jack. This allows you to use your existing headphones when listening to music instead of being constrained to using the supplied headset, which is coincidentally very good. Sound quality is excellent, even when connected to external speakers.

The display for the Nokia 91 is crisp and of a very high quality. It displays 262,000 colours (standard on most Nokia N series phones) and displays 176 X 208 pixels. The camera on the N91 is 2 megapixels, although there is no flash, so don’t expect t be using the phones’ camera at night time.

Connectivity is also excellent. As well as the expected bluetooth connectivity, the N91 also comes equipped with usb 2.0 and wi-fi. Wi-Fi is especially useful as it does not require you to sit at your computer to transfer data and songs. Wi-Fi does however use up a lot of battery power, so it is advised that have your charger nearby if you are using this connectivity method.

As far as physical appearances go, the Nokia N91 dazzles with its slim and sexy design. The chrome finish adds a real touch of class. It’s size is very good considering it is both an MP3 player and a mobile phone.

Overall if you are looking for a mobile phone that can truly replace your MP3 player than this is it. It has great functionality and enough storage for your songs so that you will not be bored on the move. A fantastic phone available at a fantastic price.
