Top mobile phone releases of 2009 — a look back.

2009: A Year Full of Mobile Phone Innovations

The global economic crisis has impacted nearly every sector of the economy.

The mobile communication industry has also been significantly affected. Despite financial difficulties worldwide, consumers will continue to prefer mobile phones from reliable manufacturers that have earned trust globally. Buyers’ preferences have already shifted: extravagant design or large displays no longer justify a high price tag.

In times of crisis, people look for mobile phones offering a balance of great functionality, high quality, and affordable prices. Last year was marked by the release of numerous trendy devices in the mobile industry, many of which quickly gained popularity.

Among the top-selling models, Nokia phones from Finland were rightfully recognized as some of the most revolutionary. For many, buying a Nokia means investing in durability and quality — and that’s what matters most now. Moreover, Nokia offers devices in a wide price range, allowing every buyer to find a suitable model. Nokia phones are well-known for their functionality — that’s what attracts most consumers to the brand.

It's safe to say that popular models like the Nokia E71, Nokia N95, and Nokia N95 8GB will continue to be in demand in the coming year. Certainly, Finnish manufacturers will surprise us with new releases in 2009. If you plan to buy a mobile phone soon, consider the Nokia Eitri — a bar-style phone with a 5 MP autofocus camera and a full QWERTY keyboard. It also features a 3.5-inch display with tactile feedback.

Another noteworthy device is the Nokia N97, a smartphone with a large touchscreen and QWERTY keyboard. It's ideal for those who use the internet on their smartphones. With outstanding technical specifications, it is sure to become a leader among smartphones.

Third-generation mobile networks are expanding rapidly, and their coverage will significantly increase in 2009. That’s why modern, multifunctional smartphones like the iPhone will gain even more popularity. More and more consumers are choosing devices that offer internet access. As a result, many manufacturers are shifting their focus to producing more smartphones and iPhones to meet market demands.
