Nokia N97 Mini Review
27 November 2009
| Avg user rating:
Around 8% smaller than the original, the N97 Mini fits comfortably in the hand and the touch-screen is still an impressive 3.2 inches.
A software tweak makes navigating with the touch-screen easier that on the original, and the QWERTY keypad is easier to type on without a D-pad cluttering things up.
Powerful software, a Carl Zeiss lens and accurate GPS are all packed into a smaller, sleeker chassis than the N97.
The software upgrades improve usability, as does the adjustment to the QWERTY keypad, but it just isn’t quite as slick as we would like.
Talktime of 360 minutes on a handset of this calibre is very good indeed.
Pros: Tactile, smaller keyboard; excellent Facebook app; lots of live information on the home screen; great email and GPS.
Cons: Lacks ‘new’ features like Facebook contact sync and Twitter app, and Ovi Store is still in its infancy.

Verdict: Solid and capable, but ultimately lacking the zing of the must-have phone.

Great Mini MobileIf you don't need all the built in memory on the standard N97 and want a slightly smaller design the Nokia N97 Mini is perfect.
dodgy OS?I think that a phone should be reviewed for what it is, and now what one wants it to be.
