A Look at the New Nokia N97

Nokia have prepared yet another handset for their N series and theyve aptly named it the N97. It features an amazing touchscreen with full QWERTY keyboard capabilities so that you can send SMS on the fly and enjoy web browsing like your favorite social networks or emal.

Theres not much point talking about the phone seeing as there are good videos showing how it runs.

Below is such a video, enjoy:

The N97′s large 1500mAh battery is rated for up to 16 days of 3G standby time or over 5 hours of 3G talk time. GSM times are slightly longer. Nokia also claims that the N97 will be capable of up to 1.5 days worth of continuous music playback from a single charge when the phone is in offline (airplane) mode. The large battery does add to the overall size and weight of the N97, though. At roughly 147g (5.2oz), it’s not exactly light.

It is still pocketable, though, measuring 15.9mm in thickness. Furthermore, I love the touchscreen capability along with the scroll on touch menu. A serious contender to the iPhone 3g people??
