Nokia N97 Announced!

Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008

It looks like Nokia have finally managed to keep a handset under wraps until its official launch!

UPDATE: Well, we spoke to soon! It turns out that the N97 was featured on the on the Nokia roadmap a few weeks ago!

Earlier this morning Nokia unveiled their next flagship device the N97 – a full touchscreen handset with slide out QWERTY keypad (think Xperia X1).

In terms of spec, the handset sits close to the N96, but with quite a few extras. The slide out QWERTY keypad is a first for Nokia, although this format has been around for many years, Nokia have always stayed away from it. Given the current popularity of smartphones and the increased number of phones with full keyboards, it was only a matter of time until Nokia introduced it. The display is an impressive 3.5" touchscreen – its a bigger display than that of the 5800 XpressMusic and the same as the Apple iPhone 3G. (The biggest screen is still the HTC Touch HD at 3.8")

Although similar to Nokia communicators of old, the N97 is clearly a social phone rather than a business users device, although there’s nothing stopping it from being a powerful business tool. It has a heavy focus on social networking and entertainment. A new customisable home screen allows you to add custom widgets to show live updates from sites such as facebook, myspace etc..

For all the music and video that you’ll no doubt want to be downloading and carrying around with you, the N97 has 32GB of internal memory, which can be expanded (upto 48GB) with a MicroSD card. The battery life on the N97 is promised as providing upto 37 hours of music playback and upto 4.5 hours of video.

Key Features:

  • 5MP camera with Carl Zeiss Tessar lens
  • Dual LED flash
  • GPS
  • HSDPA
  • Wi-Fi
  • USB 2.0
  • Stereo Bluetooth (A2DP)
  • 3.5mm headphone jack

More details will be available as we get closer to its launch, which is expected to be the first half of 2009. Click on the images below to view larger images.
