Nokia N9 UI hands-on demo

[mohitme1234]

nokia n9 in us why

[kesterwww]

what is with that awful display? The screen looks terrible. Is it a review model, as I have seen the N9 look much better than this on other videos, and I own the Lumia 800 which has the same screen, and it looks amazing. Does the N9 have Clear Black Display, like the Lumia 800?

[AJFedora]

FIRST phone with TRUE multitasking ! Hyvää työtä Nokia!! :P

[toivoha]

@th4970 Maken ääntää jopa sympaattisen huonosti, ja se on viihdyttävää. Jussi ei. Tuo on kamalaa. Paitsi ihan kiva puhelin.

[WickedFudge]

The phone looks amazing! actually one of the best...but its boring.

[susanshr]

wat phone is best??m soo condused :((..nd does having radio in a cellphone matter or not??

[CSDropStudios]

@NoonZaNarak The HTC is more useful and can do lots of things(business,games,maps,GPS and more).I didn't use a windows mobile before so I don't know its features but I think Android is more useful

[toivoha]

Ei saakeli saa hävetä ku kuuntelee tätä englanninkielen taitoa. Äänsin oikeasti paremmin jo kutosluokan alussa -_-

[th4970]

@toivoha

Ei vitun hermanni, toihan ääntää englantia ihan hyvin. Mee kuuntelemaan Marcus Grönholmin rallienglantia ja tuu sitten takasin itkemään tänne.

Ainoot ketkä luulee että suomalaiset ääntää enkkua päin vitturaa on suomalaiset ite.

[NoonZaNarak]

Should I gt this or HTC sensation?

[safwan997]

ELOP = FLOP

[poojathakur1983]

Awesome phone wish there were more phones like these on meego. Love meego

[nabgang]

I'm going to make a paper version

[monkeycars911]

WHY DID YOU DROP MEEGO, NOKIA?? IT HAD SO MUCH POTENTIAL!!!!!!!!!! I absolutely love everything about this phone except for how Nokia has stopped Meego. Meeso sad :(

[TheCrashProject]

@monkeycars911 Blame Elop.

[crazyhearts121]

@narekzo who gives a fuck about the front cam quality for video calling ??? Just cause it has a bad front cam in your opinion, doesn't mean it sucks!! You are just a bastard and you do not have an open mind!! It's like you were brainwashed to only buy iPhone! Well you know what?? Fuck you! And everyone who has the same shitty personality like you shouldn't even be on this planet!!

[crazyhearts121]

I think I'm in love with this phone...

[drewichterrado]

He sounds like my student from Singapore but originally he's from Japan... Kotaro is that you??? :)

[Dashboard64]

That runs maps like if it were powerpoint slides!

[narekzo]

i hate the front camera of the n9 ,the quality of it is very low

u cant videocall on skype u cant take photos of urself with the front camera cause its not good quality ,the front cam is just there it doesnt do anything good

the sad thing is that Nokia says why is i phone beating us ,well i have the naswer its beating u because it has everything ,the apps are perfect ,the phone never lags,the camera is great,and u can videocall on skype !!!!

[Blake9383]

Lmfao, his voice is funny.:))

[kathiepunch]

I like the pink one (:

[gdjohny]

rhatd ine great phone. i always had Nokias and now i have iphone 4 and i would trade it for n9 !!!! nokia finally got ther act together and released a propper smart phone

I WANT ONE !!!!

[hroaka10]

sucks!!! better android OS!!

[yehohanan66]

I love this phone! and i don't give a fuck about how many apps are available or there are no apps available for MeeGo O.S. The fact is that Nokia brought us a really good device, well designed. Now that we have Nokia Lumia in the market, let's find out if the king is back in town!

[ScrnPrt]

i like nokia. i might get this one.

im choosing between this one, HTC Sensation XL or Samsung Note. Which one would u recommend????

only con with N9 is the small screen compared to HTC XL and Samsung Note.

[MrEricDesu]

Android > Java > Sucks hard for Multicore from the developer's point of view

[elevenblackroses]

Scrolling stutters and not as smooth as with android. sux.

[shaazy]

@elevenblackroses Android is only smooth out of the box. Put two three apps in there and it stutters like a mother#@#$.

[elevenblackroses]

@shaazy not with my Galaxy W. I put almost every widget available but it's still smooth. And it gets better with custom launchers installed.

[ajeyjay]

ANDROID is the BEST!!!

[ManuelitoMiranda]

what is the small dot on the bottom right corner? is that the camera>

?

[techdude2121]

@ManuelitoMiranda yes the front facing camera

[ManuelitoMiranda]

n9 is looks like similar to the lumia

[MsYeiKei]

A really like this phone!

[DevourTheDarkness]

wtf i thought it had wp7

[Guszbymintpp]

18900 bath it expensive



[project785]

@fruitpsycho Trrrooollll GG you loose.

[Bj0RNare]

this phone has 1gb RAm.. woahh

[circutracer150]

I really, REALLY like this UI! Might be worth buying one from overseas ... anyone know what carriers here in the us can use this phone?

[nickdog670]

@circutracer150

Tmobile and AT&T

[arios530]

nice phone!

[nzt93]

I think Nokia's onto something here. Keep it up! I can't wait for the glorifying days of Nokia to come back.

[BrutalOddball]

no homescreens?

[AmazingMjackson]

@BrutalOddball There are 3 homescreens apps, notificarions and multitasking

[datenz]

Look at your phone Now back at the N9 Now back at your phone Now back at the N9 Sadly, your phone isnt an N9 But if you stopped following everyone else and started thinking for yourself your phone could be like an N9 Look Down, back up, How did you do that Because your dont waste time with our neeeew swipe interface whats in your hand? Back at me, I have it I transfered it using NFC Look again The N9 is now a Lumia 800 Anything is possible when Elop hi-jacks ur company. Our stocks still falling

[lasarousi]

@datenz actually the new symbian will have swipe, n8 included, which is the phone ive been seen in my hands

[jtmarcusss]

This phone is disgusting lol!

[NoImNot23]

NOKIA MAKE ELEGANT-MODERN DESIGNS, APPLE MAKE LOOK LKE SHIT DESIGNS

[timemake]

This or Samsung Galaxy S II?

[wenzlinon29]

@timemake sgs2

[ZreeSul]

Nokia!! The only problem with your company is that you ALWAYS update new phones into the market quickly, leaving the recent products to be OUTDATED :(

[eMcEe0824]

@ZreeSul yeah you're right dude ! we cannot enjoy using there gadgets !

[wellbayful]

@ZreeSul :D

[PimpOfHTown]

@ZreeSul unfortunately, all manufacturers of android (motorola, htc, samsung, etc) do this too.

[StrongBOXMobile]

@fruitpsycho Te phone does not lag, it is recorded with a crap camera. You must use one for your self to see how smooth it is!

[MrNebijau]

Will it be available in Antarctida?

[appleliciouzs]

Is that you Siri?

[najeebputhiyallam]

beautifully boring. its not responsive... no fm radio :(

[mrelemental88]

@najeebputhiyallam it has fm radio

[ankitpasi1]

iPhone 4S or this? I think the 4s...

[MrKOC666]

@ankitpasi1

I got the galaxy s2, i would much prefer that over this or the 4s.

[geothevanni]

This is the only phone I'd ditch my iPhone for. Not saying I will....lol

[32blackful]

Nice ui

[capari68]

sounds like dexter all grown up he must of gotten over his labertory

[subramaniamkrishnan]

yes very good design and good features. but its upset me and very sad. because this N9 no FM radio. what a suck i change my mind to buy other brand. good bye N9.

[umarques]

Nokia RIP... u r to late to the reality... google and samsung r year forward... dispite the phone design too squared... I'd say ugly

[Samage89]

@umarques your opinion, I think it looks great.

[davidfgranger]

What a beautiful phone, wish it had the N8 camera though.

[jumjim2519]

good

[shockwave2291]

The only thing I care about this phone is the great hardware/design and the great camera this phone has. Can't wait to see Windows Phone Mango on similar hardware (aka the Nokia 'sea ray'), meego is a dead idea, it could have been something successful 2-3 years ago.

[QuiksilveRXx24]

the only thing hot about this was when he swiped the video and it was still playing live... everything else sucks it looks like a windows phone 7 knock off.

[Jobiza]

Rofl, iphone killer, this? A nokia? XD And quality from nokia? Yeah right, i'm finnish and Nokia is finnish but damn i hate Nokia! Nokia is worst at doing smartphones, even iphone is many times better than Nokia and Nokia's softwares. XD

[Jobiza]

@connectica405 As android owner, i don't even know what haemorhoid is... As i even now got gmail to my SGS saying you writed reply to me and totally without any lag. ;)

[Jobiza]

Die already Nokia.... I've wasted hundreds of euros to your symbian and oldass hardware. Lucky i changed to Samsung Galaxy S with Android. Never ever gonna choose anything but Android.

[connectica405]

@Jobiza Android? You must be suffering from Haemorrhoids! LOL

Agreed Symbian is getting old, but Android's bloody slow, but for dual core, 1+GB RAM et...

[cys91]

Its really snappy.. I tried the demo. but how do i close the app or lock the screen?

[shamzrapz1]

I would rather buy this phone rather than Android and Iphone. I find it Android and Iphone are too common. And besides, Nokia build quality are better. Love Nokia!!!

[NukeDragon44]

Finally, a true iPhone killer from Nokia!

[ukp2006]

looks nothing like an iphone! lol awesome design

[pungmalik1]

SUX!!! iphone rip off

[iHatred3]

Cant compare this on iphone 4s ..

[tompa666]

NOKIA RIP

[connectica405]

@tompa666 Have u heard from Steve lately? LOL

[connectica405]

@tompa666 Have you heard from steve lately? LOL

[jokva5000]

is it really better to have a dual core phone?? I am planning to buy the xperia arc s, so i just wonder if I should buy a dual core instead?? ples reply :)

[AnixeHD]

@tikipyky lol, yeah, except for a FULL QWERY-KEYBOARD :D

ps: i own a n900 ;)

[tikipyky]

@AnixeHD Hell yeah :D

I own one too and replying using it :)

[BrEnNo1023]

I've always loved nokia; looking at this phone's interface is interesting, but the juddering in the UI and the lag and lack of fluidity saddens me. this kind of poor performance makes me think of cheap huawei android phones and nokia s60-touch phones of old. this could be so much more.

before flaming me, check out WP7, look how fluid and beautiful it is. i cant wait to replace my Omnia 7 with a Nokia WP7. if Microsoft's WP7 hardware requirements don't get Nokia's lazy ass into gear, nothing will

[msaha1992]

What is N9UI???

i know about N9 only

what UI stands for????

[Ilovejews18]

@msaha1992 user interface.That means how the phones software looks and works like.

[msaha1992]

@Ilovejews18

Thanks alot

[DJ7thnz]

@msaha1992 User Interface.

[nobodyshearing]

when i bought the 5800 right after it came out EVERYBODY was saying its gonna be the iphone killer... well it wasn't! neither was the n97, 5350, x6 or the n900

in hindsight all s60v5 (symbian touch OS) phone were very crappy and had alot of issues so it had no chance against iOS, but this is good!!

[skullbonze19]

the n9 will become the iphone killer

[ShkAbz]

where can i find the creation of nokia story video ?

[skdown]

this is the first and the last meego powered mobile device.

RIP meego.

[fatcrewz]

Great phone but still lacks things to make it more appealing rather than its multitasking feauture

[22always4ever]

SAMSUNG is the Best

[Prostreetcrazy]

if this thing have app as much as android it would be perfect

[radtwelve]

lol so were you in Singapore or Finland?

[unnworthyservant]

@radtwelve 2:10

[radtwelve]

I'm a huge fan of Apple but this phone looks pretty nice! I like the blue color! If only this was a blackberry, i would defintiely get one because if this works just similarly to my iphone4 (and blackberry has bbm which is why it's different), i don't have a good reason to want to buy this phone. if I was super rich, i would get it for fun though

[gurrawar12]

No one likes the black background and white text. Its amazing how you guys still dont get it

[iamthekingofalldogs]

28 january is my birthday!!!!

[jokva5000]

which one should i chose, xperia arc s or nokia n9, i want a phone which is good, and that you can play games on , and that has good browser speed?? please reply :)

[chriztoph3r]

@jokva5000 in my opinion u should go for an android phone if you want to play games. or go with iphone for more apps! :) nokia's meego OS is still new and needs more apps.

[jokva5000]

@chriztoph3r yeah, but i think you can download apps from the ovi store.

[JayyKhan]

what if you are playing game and you swipe ... does it take you to homescreen ?

[prosnake4]

Jävla finne :D

[Rockeymaru]

You sound so gay :/

[LawaiiBingo]

I think N9 is S40.

so it doesn't have too much software

[cptcrogge]

@LawaiiBingo

It is using MeeGo?

[eerereps]

let's hope this will help to bounce back Nokia... I sure think it will...

[avacomua]

@eerereps i dont think so, they lost a lot of time

[moccani01]

i dunno what the phone to buy : THE SAMSUNG GALAXY S II, OR NOKIA N9, OR LG OPTIMUS 2X, LG OPTIMUS 3D, OR NOKIA N8, OR IPHONE 4.. ?? please helpp.

[milkmunkee]

@cipanKACAK made me lol

[christermad]

Why this wonderful OS isn't on Nokia's top priority list is out of my understanding!

It is without a doubt the most modern and intiutive mobile OS to date! Why do they put it to the back and bet on WP from MS when they have THIS???

[bizzlebizzle1994]

Quit hating already...

The OS is made for heavy multitasking and high productivity.

It uses the same chip currently used on the iPad 2 (ARM-CORTEX-A8) making it superior to other mobile phones (The S2 might have a faster CPU but it uses android that doesn't really need that much)

It's also going to feature a multi-platform feature called "Magic" that will enable apps to work on multiple systems. So there for developers' Ecosystem crap.

[rafayazizkhan97]

ITS SO COOL\



[JohanGrunwald]

I think it looks confusing

[duffins2007]

n9 will be availbale in MEXICO and land of OZ

not Canada????

f*&^% IT

[JukkForYou]

Shame it died before it was even born..

[JukkForYou]

Shame it died before it was even born..

[92rascal]

Nokia has done a fantastic job here !!! finally i can show off to my friends ,who have been boasting about their apple junk...........

[jairtzinio]

i will never get android, i find it to be fucking annoying, i would rather get this than any shitty device that has android on it.

[KING0SISQO]

apple prob copy the multiasking view. but i like that idea. its better than. i think that viewing video and then checking something at the same time is so sick as you dont really come out of the action of what you viewing say if it is a film. i own iphone 4 so whatever to iphone users that wanna come here just to hate. yes nokia has taken some thngs from apple. but apple too could take the good things from nokia too.

[Aabcyclonix]

Nokia N9 vs Iphone 5 = Internal Question :3

[DisgustingArsehole]

Why is everyone saying this phone is "buttery smooth"? Still the same less than smooth, slightly laggy, slightly jittery, slow frame rate experience compared to the iPhone. Sure it's probably slicker than the average Android device but still!

[nytld102]

Nokia will have to increase the content of their app store for me to buy this phone. good design though!

[jairtzinio]

@nytld102 there is going to be an app that lets you install adroid apps on it as well

[achan2kff]

will this phone come to malaysia? can't wait to get it as replacement for my 5800XM... great phone

[cipanKACAK]

nokia 3310 are the greatest..it has infinite battery life,can be a self defense weapon thanks to itsdurable and tough steel casing..it has earth core which is much2 better than dual core,and many2 more to be told

[andreiradu1945]

@cipanKACAK The best everrrr

[msaha1992]

@cipanKACAK

no one survived to tell the tale yet.

well, other than you....

[AeroPolice]

Nokia N9 is a masterpiece. A brilliant engineering with superb combination of art and design.

[foostafoom]

Wow, that's pretty impressive, opening all those applications and switching through them so smoothly needs a lot of processing power. The only thing I don't like about this is that it's camera isn't wtfbbqamazing, but good enough I guess.. I guess I'll just wait for the next gen n8 or something.

[KiloChilla]

Maybe xda can put android in this.

[shireenkimx3]

This phone is so beautiful, esp the red/pink one :D For looks alone I'll go for it. Too bad it doesnt support Android.

[dashingguyof2k]

can this run android stuff ex games, software aswell?!

[jokva5000]

should i buy nokia n9 or xperia arc, pleas reply. ovi or android store???

[MultiERICLAU]

@jokva5000 I've just heard that the N9 will support android apps. ;)

[jokva5000]

@MultiERICLAU

how can you get android apps on nokia n9?? ;)



[oscar75206]

This is the phone that would have pushed Nokia back to the top...GUARANTEED. Microsoft knew this phone would kill there WP7, as it has struggled from day 1. Mr Elop has done a real dis-service to Nokia the corporation and the entire phone industry....what a creep. Mark my words WP7 will still struggle. Someone needs to pickup the Meego ball and run with it. This is one awesome OS.

[TIMHARTTT]

trust me buy this phone , with or without the future-support from NOKIA because this is the last pure nokia smartphone.

[mostmusicisbad]

So embarrassing for Nokia. Team up with the Winshite camp while another bit of the company releases something far superior based on MeeGo.

[MrNoubar]

guys does somebody knows if n9 has a front cam or no plz reply and fm radio

[candywrapp]

Thanks Nokia for not bringing this to USA... I HATE YOU! BRING US THE N9!

[07liberian]

@candywrapp Just Buy It Unlocked From Amazon In The Next Couple Of Months.

[DJThijz]

the multitasking reminds me of the N900

2:06 Anirudh Sharma

made me kinda hungry ;)

[jokva5000]

sould i buy the sensation or n9??????????

[Vugt89]

@jokva5000 Sensation, much more possibilities and if I am not mistaken the processor is much stronger. For some a lame excuse, but the processor is more "future proof" as the more powerfull hardware can handle more updates in the future and can compete with other high end devices.

[aymanalij]

Should I fuckin buy it OR should I fuckin buy it?

[Olegsha777]

Good review, very detailed, accurate

[renewblah]

itÄs so sad, that nokia doesn't officially sell this phone in germany;

only google-, apple- or win-phones for the germans. :-( i don't want to support the big ones, the're already too big.

[solve809]

i prefer symbian over meego or windows phone 7.

[fero42]

nokia is suck

[krazyb1234]

Finally a nokia phone that doesn't lag.

[MrRoughking]

loooooooooool No homescreen widgets.it sucks
