The first thing I would look for! put it on the top man!
The first glance at the N97..I was like..Well..Nokia could have done better than just giving us what Sony gave 2 months back! combined with what Apple gave a year back.lol!
hmm..the specs..Looks like we have a better mix here...
Xperia is out!Who buys a Sony anyways?!
Iphone vs N97!let the battle begin..

I am used to A-B-C keybad. Qwerty will be uncomforting to me.

@Abhishek, a QWERTY is the design in use across all computers and laptops in the world. An A-B-C design is slower and not optimized for faster text input. With the dynamic capabilities of the Nokia N97, I am sure it would be possible to regroup the Touch keyboard of the Nokia N97 to show the key arrangement of your choice. What can be done in hardware can always be done with software!!

Geetika Shah said...

will they really rearrange it for some?it will be like mass customization if everyone starts asking for his or her type of keyboard

Mohit said...

Whoa!
Its surely going to give my Laptop an inferiority complex, with the sleek and innovative design and awesome computing power.

Esp with a 5MP Carl Zeiss and 32 GB mem, just can't wait to click everything around and save the world in my pocket.

its power-packed with so many features!wonder if its too much to handle for the system..

Chintan Mehta said...

battery management features are the most beneficial ones for a person like me who is always on the go

Ravish Chaubey said...

there are few things that i find impressive, and the specifications of this phone are definitely one of them. in a raw battle of features, in can beat any other phones hollow, including the big daddy of smartphones whose name starts with the pronoun denoting first person. let's see whether it can match the same in emotional appeal. another important factor would be how long the battery holds.

32 gb total memory is amazing.also, the video recording resolution is as good as a full blown video camera. with 32gb storage onboard, it'll be able to record for around 4 hours (provided u don't have any other data). Sony shouldn't be worried just about sony ericsson phones after this, but also it's handycam.
