'''Nokia 9500 Communicator''' is a [[mobile phone]] produced by [[Nokia]], introduced on 24 February 2004<ref>[http://company.nokia.com/en/news/press-releases/2004/02/23/nokia-launches-new-enterprise-class-communicator Nokia launches new enterprise-class Communicator] Nokia. 23 February, 2004. Cannes. {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140714112635/http://company.nokia.com/en/news/press-releases/2004/02/23/nokia-launches-new-enterprise-class-communicator|date=14 July 2014}}</ref> and released in November 2004. It runs on the [[Symbian]]-based [[Nokia Series 80|Series 80]] platform.<ref name="gsmarena">{{Cite web|url=https://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_9500-678.php|title=Nokia 9500 - Full phone specifications|website=www.gsmarena.com|access-date=17 December 2022}}</ref>

The 9500 is equipped with a 150&nbsp;MHz [[Texas Instruments OMAP]] processor and 64 megabytes of [[SDRAM]]. It features two screens – a fully functional interior screen, and a restricted-function external screen, which operates on a stripped-down [[Nokia Series 40|Series 40]] user interface.

Connectivity features of the 9500 include: [[Bluetooth]], [[Infrared Data Association|infrared]], [[Universal Serial Bus|USB]], [[Wi-Fi]] (Nokia's first device with Wi-Fi), [[Circuit Switched Data|CSD]], [[High-speed circuit-switched data|HSCSD]], [[General Packet Radio Service|GPRS]] and [[Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution|EDGE]]. It has send and receive [[fax]] facilities (without [[Image scanner|scanner]]) and multi-account [[Post Office Protocol|POP3]]/[[Internet Message Access Protocol|IMAP]] email client.

The built-in Web browser, a Nokia-branded version of [[Opera (web browser)|Opera]], is able to render both [[Wireless Application Protocol|WAP]] and [[HTML]] Web pages. Like others in the Communicator series, the 9500 has a full [[QWERTY]] keyboard.

Built-in software includes a [[word processor]], [[spreadsheet]] and [[presentation program]], which are compatible with the [[Microsoft Office]] suite equivalents; also featured is an [[MP3 player]]. In addition to the software applications provided by Nokia, a large range of third-party software is available; many programs written for [[Nokia 9210|older Nokia Communicators]] are compatible with the 9500 and new software can be written in [[C++]] or [[open programming language|OPL]].

The 9500 also runs [[Java Platform, Micro Edition|Java ME]] applications, but some do not make full use of the unusually large and wide screen, so that many existing Java games will run, but only use the top left hand corner of the screen. It supports storage on a [[Multimedia Card]] (MMC) of up to 2 GB (on later firmware versions).

The 9500 is only available with 900&nbsp;MHz, 1800&nbsp;MHz and 1900&nbsp;MHz radios. There were many rumors that a U.S. version with 850&nbsp;MHz radio capability was going to be made, but it never materialized. Nokia was producing simultaneously the 9500 and its related version, the 9300, so they decided to make a U.S. version of the 9300 instead.
