Nokia’s fastest mobile devices? – Nokia Mobile processors comparison

You might get surprised by the below numbers. A day after N97 was announced in I wanted to see how different are the high end ones different from the other models of Nokia’s Nseries and ESeries models. Here are the findings. Surprisingly N97 doesn’t have fastest processor and also it is marginally better than that of N95.

Generally the Eseries models had better and faster processors than their costlier Nseries counterparts. Below is the list of processor  CPU speeds for Latest Nokia mobiles.  The Nokia model with fastest CPU are E52 and E55. The N96 has dual processors (2 ARM 9) . Though the CPU itself is not the only criteria in pricing of the models, but costliest model N97 has a reasonably lower CPU speed than E52 which 50% of N97’s price.

Same with E71 and E63. E63 is exact replica of E71 except GPS and 3G.

Nokia E52  – ARM 11 – 600 MHz

Nokia E55 – ARM 11 – 600 MHz

Nokia N97 – ARM 11 –  434 MHz

Nokia N86 8MP –  ARM 11 – 434 MHz

Nokia N96 –  ARM 9 – 2 * 264 MHz

Nokia N79  – ARM 9 – 2 * 220 MHz

Nokia E63 – ARM 11 – 369 MHz

Nokia E71 – ARM 11 – 369 MHz

Nokia N79 – ARM 11 -369 MHz

Nokia E75 – ARM 11 – 369 MHz

Nokia N85  –  ARM 11  –  369 MHz

Nokia N95  8GB  – ARM 11  – 332 MHz

Nokia N82  –  ARM 11  –  332 MHz
