Nokia N95 one-ups Apple’s iPhone via unrefined display ‘hack’

Posted on 04 July 2007 by

There’s no denying that we were fairly taken aback by the beauty of the iPhone’s screen, but leave it to a clever (and likely bitter) N95 owner to trump Apple’s best shot with his very Nokia. While not nearly as ingenious as converting the device into a mapmaker, this crude demonstration explains how to increase the screen real estate linked to the N95 if you’re willing to sacrifice your left (or right) arm. Granted, the “hack” did begin with a broken N95, so strapping a portable TV onto one’s forearm and utilizing the device’s video output was about the only real solution within arm’s reach (ahem). Like it or not, it’s laced in utility, and you can catch a video of the action after the jump.
