On paper, Nokia’s new flagship N97 ticks every box on our smartphone wishlist. There’s a whopping great touchscreen, a proper keyboard, top notch camera and whizzy smartphone software just itching to be fed 3rd party apps and games. So why so few stars...

A proper keyboard that feels comfortable and sturdy.
The touchscreen is less responsive than we’d like, and worse than rivals.

Nokia's N97 is a beast of a phone, with every feature imaginable in its 150g, 18mm-thick case. As well as the usual WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS, it has a backlit QWERTY keyboard that slides out from under the screen, a 5-megapixel camera with a Carl Zeiss...

The N97 was announced near the end of last year, and with the speed that the industry is advancing, it is already starting off on a poor footing some seven months on. The question is, was it even that impressive when it was announced? Well, that’s a di...

Nokias most anticipated mobile phone since the N95, the Nokia N97 smartphone combines a touch screen with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. This mobile phone boasts impressive hardware — including a 5-megapixel camera with flash, GPS, Wi-Fi and an FM transmitter — but the N97s customisable home screen widgets and touch-screen user interface are also key features. The Nokia N97s much heralded flip-up screen design isnt new. Weve seen similar tilt displays on HTC smartphones, including the now su...
