Nokia N79 Active: New Nseries phone from NokiaBy Sandeep - 01/14/2009 12:29:10 PM |
Nokia unleashed its latest Nseries phone, the Nokia N79 Active, featuring a running companion – the Polar Bluetooth WearLink heart rate belt. Polar is one of the more popular brands out there when it comes to active gear – I have used their heart rate monitors when running and they are quite useful. The N79 Active comes with A-GPS tracking, as well as the Nokia Sports Tracker app to record and publish your running/biking routes as well as fitness data onto the web. The Nokia N79 Active features a 5-megapixel camera, as usual with Carl Zeiss optics.
I particularly like the Sports Tracker app – I am all for sharing routes with fellow runners. Also the smallest Nokia Nseries device yet, the N79 Active comes with sporty headphones and an armband. The phone comes with a 4GB microSD memory card for your songs and photos – and integrates nicely with the Nokia Music Store (not yet available in the US). To top it all, there’s a good old FM receiver.
Priced at €375 (before taxes and subsidies) – or US $492, the Nokia N79 Active will be available in select markets.
