Nokia announced yesterday that its latest high-end multimedia phone, the Nokia N93, has won the title of European Media Phone of the Year 2006-2007, which was awarded by the European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA). EISA is Europe’s largest multimedia press organization.
EISA praised the still image and video capture quality of the Nokia N93 plus the extensive Internet and connectivity options, dubbing the device the “perfect example of a multimedia computer that can fit in your hands.” The judges also chose the N93’s video editing and printing capability and its digital music player for particular praise.
EISA is the largest editorial organization in Europe, with a membership of 52 Audio, Mobile Electronics, Video and Photo magazines drawn from 18 European countries. In June, EISA member magazines came together for the election of the European awards. The panel annually chooses the best equipment in a number of categories from products introduced during the preceding twelve months.
The Nokia N93, which started shipping in July 2006, offers unparalleled digital camcorder, telephony and rich mobile Internet functionality. Sporting a 3.2-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, DVD-like video capture and 3x optical zoom, the Nokia N93 undoubtedly offers a high performance combination of imaging and communication technology.
