Title: I waited and so wanted to like the N97 Time: 2009-07-26 07:31:15.0 Reviewer Name: Velo Head Rating:
Review Source: Amazon |
This would have been a 3 Star rating, but I subtracted one star for value.
I received from Nokia and have been using the N97 from the first day it was released. It is loaded with great features, and has about all the capability one could ask for. It has great call quality, both send and receive. The touch interface is nicer and faster to use than a non-touch screen device. Bluetooth works great. GPS, especially linked with the new Google Maps release is stellar. Still camera quality is super, video adequate, except for audio pickup. Nevertheless, I would never advise anyone to buy an N97. Here's why: Battery life is inadequate. Can't get through a day with average use. Keyboard is slow and difficult to use, poorly designed, poor tactile feedback, impossible to see small blue function labels on every key except in low light when the internal lights are illuminated. BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. I really hate the old style telephone keypad text entry, but it's actually faster and easier that the QWERTY hardware. Operating system is arcane, clunky, and NOT user friendly. It has some features that just plain defy logic. Phone lock switch sometimes works, sometimes not. Even after installing the firmware upgrade. There are many, many features, but few perform well. Really screwed up memory management. Very small C: drive (for operating system), that fills up over a few weeks. The only cure, and advocated by Nokia tech support is to reformat the phone. Then it works fine for a few weeks until you have to do it again. That means hours reinstalling and reconfiguring the phone each time. If you don't reformat, the phone will bog down completely, most apps won't run, and you will be tormented by Memory error messages. This flaw alone makes the phone unusable unless you have the time and enjoy constantly tinkering with the phone. I'm as geek or more as the next guy, but when I depend on the phone to work, it constantly lets me down. If have installed programs you have paid money for on the Ovi store, once you reformat, you can't download them and reinstall unless you PAY AGAIN.!! (This surprises Nokia reps every phone call, but there are incapable of resolving the problem. Finally after 2 weeks, I discovered the secret formula: get a refund, and then download again. (What's a few hours of voice mail/support purgatory every few weeks?) FM transmitter is poor. Unusable in an automobile. Numerous re-boots required each day to squash operating system and app bugs. Voice command function is poor. Not practical to use. Numerous bugs, especially via text input into the Facebook app. It gets stuck in the function key mode frequently, and you have to go back to the archiac touch screen interface. Symbian, and the overwhelming majority of apps available are Euro-centric. Nothing wrong with Europe; actually I would rather live there, but I don't. That means functionality for US users always seems "once removed", kind of like always dealing with a poor translation into English. If the Apple phone would multi-task, integrate with Exchange server better (multi-task again), and have user accessable battery, microSD and SIM card slot, I would put up with no keyboard. I can't stand the thought of using a stylus, but may be driven to an HTC WinMo device soon. The N97? Maybe for $100, but then you would still have to use it. In the meantime, I may have to fire up the E71x again sitting in my drawer. With all the hassles and bugs in the N97, and even after coming to appreciate how nice it is to have a touch interface, the device has to work; but the N97 doesn't work without a continual fight. The marketplace is screaming for a smartphone with the connectivity of the N97 (Quad band w/tri-band 3G, FM receive/transmit/ wi-fi, bluetooth, standard cable connections), great battery life, fast CPU, user accessible battery and micro SD slot, a decent operating system, great UI, no stylus required, excellent QWERTY hardware, quality video and still capture, flawless Exchange server interface, that can multi-task. Unlocked of course. The good news is that smartphones will get better; there is huge room for improvement. |

Title: Good at its trades...but master at none... Time: 2009-07-26 07:31:15.0 Reviewer Name: Smasher AT Rating:
Review Source: Amazon |
The N97 is a good device but not great...It includes all these great features and while the device is not great in any one of those features, it does all the features well enough....kinda like how a swiss army knife behaves. If you are looking for an all-around device. This may be it.
A couple things to consider before buying the device: 1. The touchscreen uses resistive technology and not capacitive technology (like the iPhone). As far as resistive touchscreens go, the touchscreen is as responsive as a resistive touchscreen can get. The key is to use the tip of your finger for best response and not the bottom flesh of your finger (resistive toucscreen responds to pressure and not static electricity like capacitive). 2. I also recommend going to [...] to have the nokia messaging client installed. It is far better than the built-in default client. 3. Right now because the product is quite new, there are a few bugs. Nokia is excellent at product and software support, and just like most of their phones, the stability and performance of the N97 will be very good after a couple of firmware updates. You just have to patiently wait for that to happen (this is the price of buying a product as an early adapter). 4. The keyboard is okay. It's not the best keyboard out there and there isn't a lot of tactile feedback. However, its still a lot better than having only a virtual keyboard on touchschreens like the iphone. After a couple of days, I was typing quite fast on it. |
