  • Wide range of features; customisable home screen; plenty of storage
  • Expensive; poor keyboard; clunky interface
  • The mobile industry continues to move at a blistering pace, and ultimately it feels like the N97 is already dated. There are simply better keyboards, better displays, better interfaces and smaller devices out there these days. ...

  • Qwerty keyboard, Large touchscreen, 32GB builtin memory, 3.5mm jack
  • Drab interface, Temperamental camera, Touchscreen not as sensitive as rivals, Qwerty a bit spongy
  • The N97 has got a comprehensive feature set but each of its core features has been bettered elsewhere. Jack of all trades, master of none? PerhapsPros:Qwerty keyboardLarge touchscreen32GB built-in memory3.5mm jackCons:Drab interfaceTemperamental came...

  • Just as I was finishing writing this review I saw on the internet that a software update had been announced. For all those people that have experienced some unstable programs on the device I think your problems will now be over. Why manufactures can&rsquo...

  • Responsive touchscreen, spacious QWERTY keyboard, ergonomic tilting display and good allround multimedia performance.
  • Large and heavy, temperamental web browser, and sometimes needs double taps to activate selection.

  • Abstract:  Nokia's N97 is, for me, one of the most eagerly anticipated handsets of 2009. Yes, I know, we've had Apple and Android stealing a lot of the attention as far as smartphones are concerned, but Nokia was doing well with smartphones long before either of the...

  • Abstract:  Its an all out smartphone war The iPhone 3GS isn’t the biggest or grandest of updates, but for us, it does enough to maintain Apple’s number one spot. We assume Apple has taken an “if it’s not broke, don’t fix it” approach. Gone, however, are the ...

  • Abstract:  The Nokia N97 is a disappointment in all aspects. The design is clunky and dangerous, the firmware is unstable and features don’t live up to their description on paper. This smartphone looked so right so Nokia, how did you get it so wrong? ...

  • Touch screen, Full QWERTY keyboard, 32GB of internal flash memory, 3G, WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS, 5megapixel camera
  • Touch user interface isnt well integrated and can be inconsistent and confusing, Resistive rather than capacitive touch screen
  • Although the Nokia N97 is packed with features, its clunky touch interface, sky-high price tag and outdated operating system make it hard to recommend when there are better touch-screen smartphones on the market...

  • In common with the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, the Nokia N97 is a really cool phone that can do a lot, but the features just dont come together as seamlessly as in other smartphones on the market. The Symbian OS doesnt simply need an update; it needs a...
