Nokia N97. First 24 hrs. First impressions

[mectechman1]

N97 is a pure dissapointment!

Since I started to use mobiles I've only bought Nokia devices, but as a result of this piece of CRAP I will probably never buy a new high end Nokia again. EVER!

The only positive about it is its physical features, and this I like. But everything else is garbage. The camera sucks, unless you only take pics of non moving object like dead people, the op system is slow and irratic (yes, ive updated the software), it turns off AND on by itself and so on.

My next: a HTC!

[thedeath4ever]

[zakimad1]

[ktabobo]

[SuperMoonDude]

[straberryandpineappl]

compared to the N900, is the N97 keybored better if you dont like a small keybored?

[jkkmobile]

N900 kb is better.. bigger and better feedback

[xshoreLS1]

My motorolas never worked properly, none of my nokia's thus far have worked as meant to. Are there any good mobiles out there that "just work"?

[CarnageManProduction]

@xshoreLS1 No!

You always have start up problems, its just life really, i plan on getting the n900 which is a fairly nice phone, not too many things out for it yet, but the community is really growing and it'l hit a point where it really hits off!.

If you want something simple, b ut rather reliable, i'd suggest one of the htc range older phones, say an htc wizzard or kaiser, then get into custom roms, and use a vanila base and get apps for it! :)

[giggles628000000]

where were you here in the beginning. it looks beautiful there

[6Clix]

N97 Mini is the 1 guys trust !!!

[jerjerjason]

[directvk]

Is nokia n97 mobile phone good?

[KingVirmire]

[powerkiller1994]

N900

[nsx4life2008]

With N900 around who needs the N97

[Zitox2010]

@KingVirmire ofc the n900 !

[leemmp]

if you update to firmware v2 it all gets fixed

[dayboyy24]

this is a phone too right?

[BlackRoseLV7]

yes

[kpeacock03]

i thought the youtube app looked fine... when you said its slow was it ur connection you were referencing?

[balanarahul]

When we will see the reviews and when you will try Quickoffice for N97

[jamual8]

hahaha

"OH NO NOT A WHOLE EXTRA CLICK!"

[Jericho92Gamer]

nokia n900 will be the beast that eats them all

[FunnyVidsIllustrated]

i agree

[SageBaby1]

im torn between this and the touch pro 2

[Careica]

And how the hell you got Skype in your N97? I only got so far MSN...

[TimbaYAM]

he is a PRO ^^

you have only to search in google for: skype for s60 mobile phones

i think it would find one ore two different versions

[KARIM7145]

my phone n97 is made in china but i bought it from the compagny and it real noot fake is this okay between finland and china

[Careica]

Mine Nokia N97 is made in Finland. Here is the list of my phones I had: 3310, 3330, 3300, 6670, N95 and now N97. So far so good, best phone I had so far and I belive in quaility. Thats why I don't buy chineze crap iPhone and others. Long life Nokia. Never got problem whit em.

[xerameosovo]

@Careica sma e with me, I've had lots of cellphones and so far, form me nokia onws the best cellphones never had a single problem with it, nicley built, made of nice materials, they all keep saying about the apps for iphone but N97 has lots of Ngage games wich are really good as well.

[gavbag1234]

Hard work drinking cider by the docks.

Get a real job, punk.

[edwingamino]

N97 rocks the best phone i have used.  ( I've owned iphone and n-95 8gb and many other "Smartphones") this is the first phone that truly feels smart.

[Alriskeke]

To see open apps, just hold the fucking menu button?

[deimossec8]

Hello could you please tell me where I can dowloand the Skype for My nokia n97? thanks and best regards

[GaryEntertainment]

Hahhah Suomalaine operaattori :P

[GaryEntertainment]

Omg finnish accent??

[bokietu]

well there goes the ideal of getting a n97. nokia is full of bugs and errors as always

[Alriskeke]

apart from that, the Symbian S60 5TH Edition is the most reliable OS for Transportable devices out there.

[gajomau]

this guy its noob.. omg.. on 11:52 , if you press the menu button for 1 second i can see the aplications opened and do the job more easly.. just 2 clicks..

[wa1tz3r]

love it. if you cant afford it. get it on contract. mines 40 quid a month 1200 mins and unlimited texts...... ive had the phone a day and its the best thing ive ever bought

[kimiracer]

This guy seems quite cool so i don't want to bash this video. However, i disagree with a lot of what he says. the battery life issue is completely wrong. I get 2 full days with average use of the device (internet, messaging, facebook and phone calls), or i get 1 and a half days with heavy usage. the widgets on mine work fine and i have had zero problems with the device. I do have the latest software though which may have helped. People keep saying how buggy this phone is but i love it.

[arconz912]

how does it compare to Nokia E90

[herefordmsv]

I'm still using my N95 8gb and tbh I have not seen anything that I really want to change it for. I do like the N97 in essence but dont like non-responbsive touch screens and the keyboard on it doesnt look to good either.

Think I'll wait for N97 v2.0 :))

[KoolJayJ]

hey what country is that? It looks peaceful

[int3rl0per]

Looks like Helsinki, Finland, although I don't recognise the exact spot he's sitting in.

And yes, Finland is really peaceful. Except for weekends, then we drink you Aussies under the table. :)

[cjdj237]

I just think that phone is a waste of cash seriosly.

[modernkoro]

[MrPulltab]

Ovi suite on ehkä bugisin softa minkä olen koneeseen asentanut. Ovi storesta vissiin kadonnut aika paljon softia mitä olis aiemmin... Päivitystä odotellessa :) Hyvä laite muuten kyllä.

[paimansli]

HTC PRO 2 is much better than shity n97

[peterunitedkingdom]

And iPhone is much better than HTC PRO 2

Any phone better than thick & ugly phone N97

[Konve]

Yeah jkk, that looks like really hard work. Out in the sun with a beer and the newest high tech..

[jkkmobile]

nooo, not beer!

.. was cider ;)

[samwelln]

Good call on the Magners- it is the drink of gods!

[malangope]

lol

"oh, someone is calling", sounded as if you didnt know it was a phone as well. :)

[kolipolov]

lol.. hey jkk how are you able to post videos LONGER than ten minutes on youtube? please share

[jkkmobile]

ppl don't have the number on that sim.. it was sales guy!!!

[Sweeney1988]

n97 phones have been sent back all over the uk. Orange are getting the phone in a week and a half because they didnt pass orange software tests. Its shockingly problematic atm. Wait a while b5 buying 1.

[zsmorr92]

I think that I don't like the way the slider works, it looks nice, but because of the way it flips up it wastes a lot of space. It is a fairly wide phone yet they were only able to fit a 3 row keyboard because of the way it flips up.

[wassahilden]

where the hell is that beautiful harbor

[jkkmobile]

Helsinki, Finland

[andrebudy]

kinda slow...:(

[pumpuppthevolume]

you dont need apps for this phone just apps for S60 5TH ED and you need to be familiar with sites like symbianfreak(DOT)com and dailymobile(DOT)se and

keep up the good work ;)

[pumpuppthevolume]

dont use options- show open apps JUST HOLD THE MENU BUTTON

[pumpuppthevolume]

why dont you use the FULL YOUTUBE WEB PAGE

[sTaNdUp41]

does it support full flash??

[SmartPorter]

yes

[sox5404]

no it doesn't only you tube and some other sites

[sox5404]

i want to know something now please

1- is skype out??,does it work using wifi?

2-does it support n-gage games yet??

because there is alot of stuff they said it will be there and it wasn't, or they decided to cut it off(virtual key board); i was going to buy one but i am having some thoughts!!!

[giabar]

You should try an iPhone

[orelsi1000]

APPLE WHORE !!!!!!!!!!!!

[avneeshshrotria]

handy taskman is a must have on every nokia device

[avneeshshrotria]

try "handy taskman" for listing your running apps in a very nice way.... by long pressing the menu key, much better the the s60v5 way.

it'll show the amount of ram and storage left on the device also , apart form having a fav. list

[wwjoshdew]

the forbidden manual! lol. I can't wait to see your HTC Touch Pro 2 video, as I am a Windows Mobile kinda person! You HAVE to install Fennec on the touch pro 2! Its firefox mobile!

Oh, and sorry for calling you during the video. lol. No really, who was calling you?

[jkkmobile]

Was guy trying t sell some gossip magazine!!!

That SIM is unlisted and only few ppl know the number!! Only use it for testing.. Grrrr!

[wwjoshdew]

that's some funny stuff!

[Timmeeeeeh007]

Nice video. You can also acces the allready open apps by holding down the menu button so you don't have to use mutiple touches for it...

[jkkmobile]

Thanks!

There is so many more things to learn with it.. manual is forbidden.
