Nokia Booklet 3G in the flesh!

So here we have it — one of the very first few Nokia Booklet 3G in the country. We don’t know when it will be released in the Philippines but if it ever did, at least we’re able to share with you some close-up shots and a review ahead to help you get decided.

I have to admit, the Nokia Booklet 3G is just gorgeous (and I use this word very sparingly). Pretty solid aluminum construction. If it didn’t have the Nokia logo on the glossy-black lid cover, I’d easily mistaken it for an Apple netbook (okay, the non-existent one).

Nokia Booklet 3G specs:
10.1″ display screen @ 1280×720 pixels
Intel Atom Z530 1.6GHz
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 500
1GB DDR2 RAM
120GB HDD
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR
3G Modem
Integrated GPS and A-GPS
1.3MP camera
HDMI port, 3 x USB 2.0 ports
SD card reader

The Booklet 3G is Nokia’s first attempt to enter the laptop segment so it will be interesting how it will position itself in this already-crowded market. We’ll have the full review of this unit in a week or two so stay tuned for that.

    Could anyone help me buy the Black Nokia Booklet 3G. I’ve been waiting for its release in the Philippines since 2009. Best Buy in the U.S. only sells and ships the item if the credit card holder and its billing address are both in the continnental U.S. I’ve also tried buying the item at Ebay but I encountered problems in checking out using PayPal.

    i still love my toshiba sattelite series w/ 320gb of internal mem and a harman kardon speakers. i might try this though once it arrives here in my location. AR is right, once you got to travel a lot and stays in the airport terminal for more than 12hrs then this one is for you. with my current laptop, i always make sure i bring with me a universal adaptor. i was once stucked in dubai terminal 3 for 14hrs and got no adaptor that would fit their power outlet.good thing there is one passenger who’s kind enough to lend me hers.

    aluminum coating, nice design but look at the specs, i think it’s slow.

    Looks nice, but…Well, it just looks nice. Specs pale in comparison with other netbooks in the market. I doubt they’ll price that around 23-25k. More like 30k++ or even more.

    Ang problem Atom yung processor, so meaning medyo mabagal yan. :(

    Not impressive specs for Nokia Booklet. You can buy a better netbook for the price of Php38K++. It’s only advantage is it looks like the old Macbook.

    i really like this Nokia Booklet 3G!!!
    it looks so sleek; however, i think i want to opt for the Apple IPad, or maybe both gadgets!
    technology never ceases to amaze me! have you heard of or seen the lecture about the SixthSense??
    holy moley!!! that is incredible and way ahead of this time’s technology! it’s like the creator/inventor just saved the human kind 10 years of our lives for having created it now.
    you have to check it out if you still haven’t done so yet.
    here’s the link to the video of the lecture:

    39k for a netbook is way too expensive IMO. it’s premature for me to runt though. nokia must have built this little thing with love and passion. :)

  18. Avatar for lolipown lolipown says:

    I’m shaking my head as I go through each line of the specs… HDMI output on an Intel budget graphics silicon. Then the premium price. Makes you wonder if this is even going to sell.
