It is here. Arrived at the NYC flagship store yesterday, and in Europe earlier in the week. Reviews are pouring in around the nets from end-consumers...VERY IMPRESSED-is the overall consensus.

This guy got his yesterday:

Compared to the Iphone lets see:

The Nokia N97 features live video streaming whereas the iPhone doesn’t even have built in flash yet...
hmmmm what else the n97 has over the iphone.....

SMS forwarding

MMS

File transfer

Video Recording

Removable Battery

Multitasking...

5 mp camera..

FM Receiver

FM transmitter.....u gotta love this.....u can transmit songs from your phone to any radio within range.......

JAVA

secondar camera

expandable memory...can be used as a flash drive.

The keyboard on the N97 is an outright differentiator. All you have on the3G iphone is a virtual keyboard that you can see on the screen and use the touch screen option to key in. This is a definite problem especially if you are not comfortable typing – you’ll see that you will take a whole lot of time on that. That is not the case with your N97. All you have to do is slide your phone and you’ll have a full fledged keyboard – the QWERTY type one on your phone. So that you make messaging hassle free compared to the iphone.

The memory of the N97 is far more extended than any other phone in the market today.Thanks to the 32GB memory that the phone has, there is absolutely no comparison in the near vicinity. This vast memory that the N97 possesses is definitely something that it has to its advantage, all the more the reason that no other phone is thinking of this facility..

when nokia plan on using multi-touch and capacitive not resistive touch screens?

2 reasons i decided against getting the N97

RASC · Posted: Mon Jun 15, 2009 10:34 pm Post subject:

Sony P910i, For your sake:

SpotOn
NiceLight
Smartlight

Neutral

But really...I think the whole "flashlight" thing was a joke.

Sony P910i · Posted: Mon Jun 15, 2009 10:34 pm Post subject:

Some guy brought up that arguement above....I just playing along

Both N97 and Iphone are great phones

I just bumping the nokia thread because I feel bad it on page 4 while the Iphone thread is on page 53

Thats is no match for the Idou... dont even call the n97 in a sentence with the omnia hd, that omnia hd is a WOFT. LOL

nokia should get rid of the outdated symbian OS and use Android or something.

then they might actually start selling phones...

RASC · Posted: Mon Jun 15, 2009 10:39 pm Post subject:

On that note, anyone seen the 5530

Decent..no GPS or Capacitive screen tho Confused

yes i meant the S60.

Apple's OS is currently second to none. Android still has alot of catching up to do

not bashing nokia, they make good phones. not the best anymore but still good.

but there never will be an iPhone killer. just like there could never be an iPod killer.
y? because Apple has iTunes and the App store.

plain talk, bad manners.

Hence Nokia must put emphasis on their Camera and GPS to sell phones

Other than that, the phone is basic
