Nokia 9000 Communicator - User Reviews

  • It's a 1998 smartphone, why would you expect to have a MP3 player, not even considering it has just a few Mb for use?! A single MP3 file would fill the entire memory, because of its lack in external storage.

  • As first mobile in Nokia, it was enough good. But its weight is not good for carrying it. Also, it does not support memory card. ... There are no mentions about mp3 and mp4 player. Does it support music player?

  • It was the first mobile phone in the world which was internet enabled. ... But on the specification it is not mentioned about its GPRS capability. You can find this answer in google search.

  • But HTC has been copying Apple by not including a headphone jack on their recent phones.

  • See .. Nokia didn't have headphone jack even before iphone 7.. Damn apple is copying :v

  • My 1st Communicator phone as Am a Nokia Communicator phone user and whenever Nokia released new communicator phones I always buy and used one

  • i used it at Iraq i am photoreporter

  • It's like an MS-DOS mobile phone/computer

  • if you loose the battery or the charge dont work for Communicator 9000/9000i you can use this circuit here to power on the device (use the circuit without the 2 diodes and without the capacitor) connect 5 volts to the circuit input and connect circuit's output to the device's battery pins you can find phone's - volt pin with a buzzer connected on the first left pin and phone's chasis, the + volt pin is the last opposite pin... - and + are the two edge pins (find the BID-BSI pins according on the circuit shematics)

  • my first handphone....full of memories

  • Nokia 9000 has a good specifications for his time.....

  • Aloooo bro.., I'm confuse which one to buy this Nokia 9000 or Nokia N9? Pls help....TQ hakhakhakhakhak...

  • This was a cutting edge device from Nokia during the late 90's. It has built-in modem to access email and web. It worked like the old dialup internet connections we used on PC's earlier days. Also it had html browser, which fetches text from a webpage and also images and display it in 8bit grayscale format. One can also save pages for later use so as to save from high data access costs during that time. Apart from email and browser, the other 2 network based programs available with 9000 were Telnet and Terminal, which is very familiar to tech-geeks. More details about setting up the 9000's network features are available on here:

  • It utilizes Nokia's magic software to access the internet back then.

  • On the Specification, there are no any connections available. both GPRS, EDGE etc are none. But can i ask to all readers that know the answer even to Nokia or even in GSMARENA : why in browser it has HTML ????

  • You can download it from Appstore or GooglePlay, it is actually a lot of fun!

  • Bat only this and Rim 950 with 386 Intel inside , xaxa real pocket pc.

  • Please i need a charger!!

  • where can i found a charger

  • there are many phones like this check with LG and samsung. they have some androids like this. samsung doubletime for example

  • good god --- there was only 2 mb for use of storage! and i remember this phone was a big status symbol

  • This has actually got Intel Inside CPU if you check the specification. LOL

  • this phone is nothing but all gone..no more type for this phone

  • how to get angry birds for this phone?

  • this phone equip with truly 3d retina display. N9000 will wipe out iphone 4s and SGS II. u must try this phone :D btw they said n9000 can play easily playstation 2 with emulator bcoz installed AMD HD4000 super mobile series ^__^

  • I want to buy a Nokia 9000 communicator. But I couldn't able to find out in my country. Can you please tell me where I can get it in Bangladesh? What would be the price?

  • is it working in united arab emirates????

  • Yes and no. It actually has LTE (4g). It has the most precise GPS in the world. You can also download apps from AppStore and AndroidMarket. In my opinion, it's the best smartphone i ever had in my life. When iPhone 4s was lunched, I buyed it. It was waste of money, because the iPhone 4s was just a piece of crap. If you plan to buy this phone, then buy it! It is, and it will always be the best smartphone ever.

  • Hi Matt, was looking for a charger for My Nokia 9000 communicator, do you still have one or do you know any place i can buy from, will be grateful, thanks

  • Do you still have your Nokia charger, i please need one desperately.

  • I don't think that the E-Range is offically part of the Communicator range. The E90 was called, "Nokia E90 Communicator", but the E7 is simply called, "Nokia E7". As for Your lack of 9300s, the 9500 was out at the same time, and had more features... Like a Camera.

  • The Nokia 9000i was my FIRST phone ever. I got it in 1997 as a gift. In 1998, I upgraded to the newer 9000il with a backlight. (It was worth it!) I still have both and the batteries STILL last to this day! My newer phones haven't lasted me this long. Too bad I can't use it in Europe or else I would. (Imagine everyone on an ultra slim, color phone and I'm coming with a phone that weighs 400grams!) It's a great phone and I've owned every version of the Nokia Communicator except for the 9300/9300i and the e7. Currently using the e90!

  • Collections of software for geos( nokia 9000, nokia 9110 allow to download here: 33 items.

  • hey if anybody has this set ..please can you give me ...i desperatly want it!!

  • how about iphones androids windows mobile phones etc etc arent these better than the n90 that u call the best which rlly sucks

  • Anonymous, In what year was your Nokia 9000i Communicator manufactured? Is it fully functional and will it work in the U.S.? Do you have all of the accessories(e.g. battery, charger, manuel, etc.) that came with the phone? If so,what are asking for it? thanks, Bill

  • Wow, this phone first came to my country when I was in primary school. I used to salivate at the full page ads Nokia took out for the Communicator. Comparing the specifications to my 5800, I'm in awe of what Nokia has acheived in the dark ages.

  • if u have to think about the year 96,the year nokia 9000 launched,this is one of the most legendary phone ever...you have to realize the truth.btw,nokia 9000 is the father of todays PDA phones

  • looks too cool at first time but when you see the ugly display + 0 functions + battery stinks in this case the nokia e90 is the best now!!!

  • The Nokia 9000 Communicator was released in 1996; Not in 1998 as the specification page shows.

  • the baddest nokia phone

  • Charging can be an issue. It needs a high power adapter. You can find the original type code on the nokia site and order one at Ebay. And the 9000 has a speakerphone option. Hga

  • send it to me as well plz

  • picture me?

  • o rly?

  • kayleigh limmage has big boobs!!!

  • poo

  • i can't use the web cam plzz it gives dark no image

  • I googled a lot but no success. Can you please help me in how to look for a hard reset of the Nokia Communicator 9000? Thanx a lot.

  • Hi, just got mine off ebay for 15 quid but doesn't seem to be charging. Battery issue?

  • �32 was a steal! This handset is already trading hands amongst Mobile collectors for �200+!

  • This is first communicator in the world. It has more function than firs Ericsson's communicator which has been presented in 2000.

  • has anyone added electronics to the 9000 so it keeps up with the additional products that are on the phones today eg.cameras printers just like lap top computers if yes please post results if no please advise if it possible at a cost as i find the size and weight perfect for everyday mobile movement.

  • Before Nokia Ericsson was in Business and for ur kind inf, Nokia use were into Oil business, the pioneers in this field are Ericsson and now sony ericsson, Ericsson are world leaders in wireless infrastructure, they have invented Bluetooth tech also and sony ericsson are doing great in mobile phone business. so don't boast about nokia, if nokia is great, sony ericsson is also great.

  • see, nokia were way ahead of the world! At this time, SE wern't even in buisness! Well done Nokia!

  • Cute.It's got fax, a processor, a mem. Unfortunately, it has not got OS;it has grayscale display;one band only. It has lived its days, but is still useful. Sadly, it's discontinued. Nice phone!

  • Geos is a ROM based OS, the corrupted INI is the modified version in RAM Reseting it would be enought (look for hard reset procedure on google) You would lose any add-on program.

  • Does anyone happen to know how to go about repairing the GEOS.INI file? I still have two of these phones, and i am looking to fix them. Both have the GEOS.INI corrupted.

  • this thing got fax :|

  • First communicator... what times...

  • the processor is 24mhz, however slow that seems, was quite sufficient for the phones capabilities, I have just listed mine on ebay, its immaculate and is fully boxed up with all accessories, 2 original genuine batteries, leather case, all manuals, charger and the required adaptor, unlocked for voda and o2

  • Click Here For HTML Goodies

  • is not at 386mhz :D it's a intel 386 processor.probably it has like 30mhz.

  • I've just bought one of these off ebay for �32, the seller has stated that it is unused and in new condition, i've bought it simple cos its old and if it is as s/he describes, it may be worth a bit in future, i have a question tho, the intel 386 processor, is that 386mhz? is it quicker than the current processor in the xda mini s? I won't be using the handset i'll test it tho, bought purely as a collector's item, so the technical spec makes no difference to me

  • I have new full complet of 9000... battery - 1, 2 days on standby. This is historical phone. Maybe any user have soft /utils, games/ for it?? www.bakx.pl

  • pretty good for the days its still expensive! too bad if your using one this time around. enteng

  • Up to my third communicator the 9500 now. Not sure why anyone in this day & age would want a 9000. The replacement battery would prob cost more than a brand new light weight phone. Maybe they want a paper weigh.

  • This phone = brick

  • Hi one more time. So, if you need a Nokia 9000/9000i adapter for the charger then you cannot buy one from Nokia because it's out-moded and they have moved on. However, I just happen to have one that I could sell to you - only because I bought some damaged Nokia 9000i machines so that I could dismantle them and become a Nokia amateur engineer. Anyhow, if you need an adapter then let me know. Best regards, Matt.

  • I have had my Nokia 9000 for years since new. It's the French version and the antenna is shorter than the English version. For me it's a classic mobile phone and I am still using it. Will someone please contatc me and tell me how to dismantle a Nokia 9000 (I have others). Does anyone want to buy a Nokia 9000 from me in good working order on Orange (UK) - on Bouygues (France). It comes complete with charger and adapter and is not expensive - free delivery. Best regards, Matt.
