The Nokia Communicator is a brand name for a series of business-optimized smartphones marketed by Nokia Corporation, all of which appear as normal (if large) phones on the outside, and open in clamshell format to access a QWERTY keyboard and an LCD screen nearly the size of the device footprint.
The Nokia 9110i Communicator's set of features may seem laughable today, but in its time, it was at the cutting edge of technology. For example, the amount of notes, texts, and contacts it could store was only limited by the amount of available storage memory (a whopping 8MB, for those wondering). The 9110i offered a web browser, could send and receive email, and had a full QWERTY keyboard. 90's phones had none of this, and typing in a simple text on a numeric pad was a laborious process. On top of all this, the Communicator had a voice recorder, a scientific calculator, expandable storage, support for documents and spreadsheets, and let you install additional applications, such as tools or games. 90's mind: blown!
