Just in… Nokia N97. First Thoughts.

Nokia N97

Ok, so on Wednesday we received the new Nokia N97. My initial impression when I first saw the phone was, its white and a it’s a bit bulky and I would have loved the black one.

The N97 is a “flip” phone equipped with a QWERTY keyboard and a huge TFT touch screen. The QWERTY keyboard, again was something to get use to. The touch screen is amazing and accurate. The phone comes with a stylus for navigating on the screen, but like I said the touch screen is very accurate for navigating with your fingers.

Do you remember a couple of years back you could add those irritating little things to your phone that lit up every time your phone rang? Well that’s what you have to do with the stylus and that is the reason why I am not using. No thanks.

5 Megapixel camera, with a built in flash = Awesome photo’s. Tried it out last night. All I can say is WOW.

Three quick things worth mentioning:

  1. I completely missed the “menu” button on the phone the first time, and had to get someone to show me where its was.
  2. When your phone rings, it tries it’s best to announce to you who is phoning. Eventually managed to find out where to turn that off.
  3. When your phone is locked and it rings, you can’t answer it. You have to unlock it first and then answer it.
