The Nokia 9210 Communicator is a third-generation Communicator series smartphone produced by Nokia, introduced 21 November 2000.[1] It greatly improved on the second generation Nokia 9110 Communicator, providing colour main screen, changing to Symbian OS platform and ARM processor. It is one of the few mobile phones able to send and receive fax.
It is used as a normal though bulky mobile phone in closed mode, when it is flipped open it can be used like a very small notebook computer with a 640×200 screen. The earpiece and microphone are located on the back so one must hold it with the front screen and keypad facing out to make a call. The phone also has speakerphone functionality. It was also the first Nokia with a card slot for expandable memory.
The American variant is the Nokia 9290, introduced in 5 June 2001, but had a long release delay before finally arriving in the continent in June 2002.
