Nokia N950
Attention, this page is UNDER CONSTRUCTION and still holds many incorrect facts copied over from N900 template. This warning will get removed once all those incorrect copies are corrected or cleaned out |
This is a quick outline of a page, as I'm filling it in. The N950 is the second Maemo device which can be used as a phone. It is meant for development for target platform N9 under maemo-6 harmattan recently renamed to meego-harmattan, though the core OS still is maemo based and unrelated to http://www.meego.com aka meego-meego aka meego_proper, nevertheless several APIs and the UX try to approach the meego_proper appearance.
Nokia seems to refer to this device as N9-devkit: https://www.developer.nokia.com/Devices/MeeGo/#article2 http://www.engadget.com/photos/nokia-n950-press-shots/#4243171
It is only available to developers, and not as a consumer product. It shares much hardware with the N9, with the notable differences that the display is TFT, not OLED, and there is a hardware keyboard.

Due to the use of different display technologies, on the N9, developers should avoid one pixel width fonts(?) and graphical objects with lines one pixel wide. Also avoid the extensive use of bright colors, especially white, when developing for OLED displays as this increases the power consumption (typical for OLED displays). See this page on common OLED pixel arrangements for more info
