Nokia N97 vs. iPhone 3GFight!!!
I hope that we’ll soon stop thinking about new touch-screen phones in terms of whether any of them has what it takes to be an “iPhone killer.” For now, though, I can’t help myself. The Nokia N97 just announced itself at the Nokia World show in Barcelona. Will it murder Apple’s handset? It looks intriguing from a hardware standpoint, at least. And it’s certainly a more interesting phone than the company’s lower-end 5800 XpressMusic. The N97 has a screen that’s the same size as the iPhone 3G’s, but with higher resolution; with 32GB of RAM flash memory, it also has double the memory of the highest-capacity iPhone plus a MicroSD slot for up to 16GB more memory at a time. And its 5-megapixel, video-capable camera certainly trumps the iPhone’s camera. So what’s exactly do we have here? Yes, some reasons why the N97 is much better than the iPhone 3G. Let’s just get started, shall we? 1) Nokia N97 does 16:9 video. The iPhone doesn’t even do video. So, how can you go to a Himesh Reshamiya concert and record it to taunt your friends? 2) It has a 5 megapixel camera. The iPhone only has 2, and the quality isn’t even close. The camera also has a dual LED flash, so you can take pictures in the dark where the iPhone can’t. 3) I can type three Facebook status messages on the N97’s nice QWERTY keybord in the time that I can type two on the iPhone. 4) It does copy and paste, so you can copy URLs to send to your friends. The iPhone can’t do that. 5) It has replaceable batteries so you can charge up three batteries and Facebook for days, while the iPhone needs to be hooked back up to the wall for recharging after a few hours. 6) The GPS device does turn-by-turn and has a built in compass, so you’ll get to your parties faster than with the iPhone, which doesn’t have a compass and doesn’t do turn-by-turn.

EVERY THING LOOK GREAT BT WAT ABT THE PRICE......
may i know the price of the nokia n97 please?
might be around 30k but might be high initially
what is the price?
NOKIA says that the price will be 550 euros without the taxes but i think it will rise to 600
but the prob is that we have to wait for a few months to get it which is kinda hard
I saw in some website the price of Nokia N97 is Rs 33,500/-
Priced @ more than $700
Iphone sucks.
But the grafics are much smoother than on this one. (search youtube for example videos)
when will it be available in india
Expected: Retail price 35000 Rs
Final price 40000+ Rs
Bugs
it is killer mobile...
made for killing the market of I-phone
The iPhone cannot be killed, just as the iPod couldn't be killed, but you can offer alternatives and competition. The iPhone has 2 years head start and only now are other devices even beginning to catch up. Think about what the 3rd Gen iPhone is going to be able to do...
Nokia 7700 was only relaesed in india (asia) market and other inport/export
Nokia 7710 was free on £30 contract in 2004
Built in stylus with keypad, also camera
Nokia prototype 6108? or something similar
Nokia 5800 for £249.99 at Regent street on 23rd of Jan 2009 with extras like N95 but with case and stand 3 or 4 ways to touch phone at times (Plectrum, built-in stylus and spare in box) FINGER interface simlar to N97 but wait built qwerty slide out.
>Nokia N97 does 16:9 video. The iPhone doesn’t even do video. So, how >can you go to a Himesh Reshamiya concert and record it to taunt your >friends
Off all the concerts in this world i get to see a dog howling recorded and that too on a N97
totally
can u tell me the price of n97 nokia , and place to buy
thanks
i like n 97 phone
whats the price of nokia n97???
hey guys nokiaa says that the cost of n07 is 550 euros while SHIPPING...
If you could remember the rumours for iphone 3g in India, it told that it may cost 8000-24000 bucks...........
but what happend u already know........
The cost of shipping+taxes+VAT+other sales taxes= MORE THAN Rs.45000 in India.................
but the most exiting thing is that it has ovi and engage.......... which increases the gaming fun......so wait till june the orignal price will be revealed then only................................
Lotsa reason for my above prediction besides the fact that i saw the omen. The omen came in the form of info that the N97 carries a Single CPU, 434 MHz ARM11 when the N95 I have has Dual 332 MHz Texas Instruments OMAP 2420. A weak brain on such a powerfull phone makes it have more brawns than brains.

NO MATTER WHAT, N97 IS BETTER THAN iPHONE 3G
maybe its just me but i think most of the new touch phones already surppased iphone 3g
