Nokia N950 Dismantled – internal/external photos of disassembled Developer MeeGo Phone (12MP Carl Zeiss confirmed)
Avert your eyes, we’re going into the geeky-dissection room to slice open the Nokia N950. This is the official disassembly for the FCC (expect more to come later as folks piece it apart). BL-4D battery, less capacity than the N9. I guess devs don’t mind and would be closer to power source more often than typical N9 user 
It looks like those old plastic army toy soldiers frame thing from early 90s/late 80s
External N950 photos are available too
As seen in the teaser, this has 12 mp. The N950 info page was a bit coy in saying N9 and N950 had similar image quality, both being able to produce 8MP pictures. Well N950 does this by lowering the resolution by 4MP.
What a gorgeous looking thing

Check this out! Nokia N9 Includes An FM Transmitter & Receiver, No Software To Take Advantage Of That Yet
http://thehandheldblog.com/2011/06/23/nokia-n9-fm-transmitter-receiver/
this is nmokia man…
they never kept thier promises
like happend in N8
they are bunch of MFs
the only problem with nokia is thier service …..
They have new technology and ideas
but in the case of service they are just scum bags
Stephen Elop has hammered in the last nail into a Nokia-MeeGo coffin. It will prove to board of directors that MeeGo it is bad.
- Itself MeeGo it is not very stable yet.
- The processor from the last century
- Bluetooth 2.1
- The display with mediocre resolution
- The operating time isn’t enough
bluetooth 4.0
last century ? neither you were there , nor was omap3630, and by the fucking way, whatever the processor is, it blows the shit out of fruit and robot.
display..you better back your arguement up before saying shit…
operating time is far much better than the green robots

Bluetooth 4.0.
It’s the N950 who has the 2.1
and oh..if meego isnt very stable yet..then what da fuck are you seeing on the phone ?
Display with mediocre resolution? Are you serious? The best display out there at the moment is the Super AMOLED+ of the SGII. The N9s CBD beats it for both resolution and quality.
From a non-fanboy point of view, I would not say beat it. But CBD is no worse than S.AMOLED Plus is not better than it.
Whoah look at microphone positioning
Good!!1
n9 is just awesome,but they should have put a 12mp cam,8mp isn’t bad maybe they wanted it to be slim,but so far n9 is just excellent.
Which one will you choose if there was a an option
1) N9 with 8mp + NFC or
2) N950 with 12p & no NFC
Both phones are wonderful.
Nokia may start selling N950 when they finish the N9 unit they are making.Meego will gain more ground later this year when more manufacturers release their Meego powered phones.I think 1Ghz CPU + 1Gb Ram is enough,we need something we can use,by the way this will run Meego(pure linux)which is just efficient and the best in resource utilisation.Think about the support that we’ll also get from the Linux community.Nokia says Meego is for future disruptions,guess the disruptions have started.
How LCD n950 compares to Amoled N9 screen. They have same resolution but, what are the real world differences (i’m not asking about technology behind these two screens)
The Amoled display would have more apealling colours with deeper blacks. It would also have better sunlight visibility.
12MP? I would like it!
uhm why does it say N9 on it?? (in the last pic)
Because this phone will be used to develop apps for N9..
Because this was the original N9, due for release in Nokia World 2010 but never made it, instead becoming a developer device.
Looks like a military grade electronics.
I want it, it looks sci-fi.
Btw

“People don’t need to worry about that we are not supporting MeeGo wholeheartedly.” – Oskar Södergren, Communication Manager Nokia Scandinavia
The battery pack is small that will not last for one full day, and might bee buggy phone they can not solve problem on it, that’s why they give for free to developers…bcz if they where for sale, than in few days all the phones will be returned back to the service as defective people might consider…so guys if you want to have headache and the phone than register for developer, hope you’ll get one…i will not want it even is for free…thanx.
You sure that you will not want it even it is for free?
Sure i don’t want it, it might wast my time…that’s all…but I’ll keep my N97mini modified CFW.
Thats OK for me, I want your copy. Thanks by the way! PS I can pay for it, but dont tell Nokia!
Got anything on how much memory it has
i am guessing 64 gb !!!
The only thing force me not to buy n9 is upcoming nokia wp7 phone,and all nokia attention goes to their wp phone i’m afraid n9 will be another n900. Maybe i’ll stuck with my dying os n8 till next year… Damn Nokia.
Wp7 is already dead OS, and people who already run away from Winmo…they will newer go back!
I am scared of those crap tiles in WP7. If Mokia can put this MeeGo UI on Mango then nothing can beat Nokia.
Yeah man you are right!:)
Why didnt they made N950 as mainstream device, it has all the ingredients to become instant hit,and if they make it with 64GB onboard memory and put 1500Mh battery in it, then it would have looked as great device……. I thnk Nokia dont want to make it mainstream as then it will affect sales of E7, which similar in looks to this device, and above all E7 woulf have looked medieval age device in front of this thing, so may be they wll release this with more better specs, in Fall……… Or if they dont release this device for public then it only means, that Elop really wants to screw the greqt OS like Meego, just to make his bosses at Microsoft happy……..
It was supposed to be last year’s N9, but MeeGo wasn’t ready. Hardware wise it got approval but MeeGo was not mass market ready.
On the whole affecting Symbian Sales? I did over hear some Nokia folk say it was not announced at Nokia World 2010 (though it could have been and was expected there) to put limelight onto those Symbian devices.
MeeGo still isn’t ready now. It’s backtracked harmattan (Maemo 6) in between MeeGo. Harmattan was due in 2010, I think we heard about it in 2008 and even then we already said that was too late for Nokia.
If there’s anyone to blame it’s the culture inside Nokia that causes such slowdown of innovation.
