*OFFICIAL THREAD: Nokia N97

I can also see it dropping in price in 3 weeks from launch. But SN always launches at an extremely high price. E71 was probably the only exception.
 
Thanks.

I lost all the apps that I had on my N95 that were on my old computer in a harddrive crash, so if I end up getting this I'm going to have to start redownloading stuff soon.
 
Oh, I'm not talking about their promotional videos. I'm talking about hands-on videos from bloggers taken at trade shows. The screen looks incredible in those vids on preproduction units. I was surprised at some of the still shots in some of the recent reviews.

Check the link below and watch in HD. Check around 55 seconds in where you see the screen head on. There are a number of other vids showing the same clarity. I'm pretty sure the brightness is turned all the way up, but whatever, looks great to me. :D

I think this thread is far more rabid than the N95 thread. Nokia has done a better job of keeping us close to the development process of the N97
 
I think that the services, or apps, are going to be crucial to the success-or lack of-the new generation of devices being put out to market. Apple knew this and is miles ahead of the pack
 
wow finally nokia answered my dreams. A N-Series with full QWERTY.... now let's hope they get US spec'd version out before something else new and exciting is announced.
 
Well, we all know that the N97 is getting 434 Mhz, but what confuses me most is...

Why does the E55 needs to have a 600 Mhz CPU, while the E75 only gets 369 Mhz.

They both do the same thing technically and the E55 don't even have N-Gage... and the E55 has a bigger 1500mah battery vs E75 1000mah...

And then the 6710 Navigator and 6720 Classic are getting 600 Mhz...

While the N86 is announce after those above, only get 434 Mhz???

There seems to be a pattern that as phone price goes up the CPU performance get worser :confused: :confused: :confused:
 
It hasn't been hyped up nearly enough. We haven't even gotten to the point where we get pictures of it in the wild. Those are coming next month :lol: :lol: :lol:

Is it June yet?
 
Dude, you have no idea what you talking about, I just picked on your line that phone will become slower with ''usage'' like by calling/texting and laughed, simple, duh, every1 knows installing more apps, especially 5000 songs on memory card, slows it down.You don't know me, so don't assume that I'm s60 newbie, I've been using Nokia phones since you can imagine, I've worked for Nokia too in Uk as technician in service center,100s of phones used to come everyday for repair, but I never bring in topics like CPU/RAM/ALU to confuse and worry others, We all got your point about CPU, but just leave it alone and move on.When you have the phone in your hands then you can complain about the CPU/RAM, seeing is believing, so far I've seen good performance by n97 and I know what apps to install and to answer your question,I never said that don't install anything.Whenever I buy a phone, first thing I do after full charge is install tons of apps.I've 10gigs of Nokia apps/themes/games.

Don't install unnecessary themes, especially the one which are animated and not properly compatible with the phone.
Don't install an app which triggers other processes in the background when the phone boots up.
Don't use a counterfeit memory card, it will get corrupted very often and phone will slow down/freeze unless you take the memory card out.
Don't leave only 40mb free out of 32gb built in.
When you done with music player, exist it, especially when you have 5000 songs.
Obviously, use taskman/handytask to manage processes.

Any more ways you wanna know how to get best performance?
 
thank you for doing this, it shows that there is very little difference at rendering speed between the s60 browser and the iphone browser. i get so tired of hearing how the iphone just blows it away. that video CLEARLY shows that they match each other pretty closely, which is what i said with my 5800 using it next to my roommates iphone AND android G1 phone. its just not much difference. factor in you get FLASH support, and its a no brainer that i think the s60 browser is good and not "outdated" as so many people claim. granted the iphone is smoother for sure, but i dont care about that, i'll take function anyday:D
 
Well I meant if someone tries to pull a fast one and stick that in an N97 box.

We can say all we want about the dangers of eBay but it's a whole lot safer than Craigslist. That's for damn sure. Nobody gonna kill you on eBay LOL
 
The OS updates for the Bold were so rapid, I lost track at one point at the speed at which updates were churning now. Now that it's rock solid, dont need more updates :lol:
 
I pre-ordered 2 this morning for me and my GF. I'm stuck using my old 6230 while my N95-1 is in the repair shop. I haven't seen a charge on my card yet so I wonder when that will hit. I hate having that much money in that account.

I'm going to order a couple of 16Gb cards off of ebay to complete the package and get rid of all of these slow 2 and 4Gb cards I have laying around.
