Video: Nokia N97 Disassembly
Want to see the guts of the Nokia N97?
It’s not a pretty site, as the N97 is torn down systematically to its innards. A bit like what Iive in Anatomy to cadavers, it’s interesting to see exactly what and where the parts of the N97 are located, e.g. I’ve always wanted to know where the connection point was between the screen and the main body was (you can see it at 1:00)
If for some reason you wanted to replace a part of the N97 (others used similar videos to replace covers/microphones/keypads on other Nseries devices, e.g. N95/N82) I would not recommend at all that you do this yourself. Bring it along to a Nokia repair centre instead.
I think we need to get our hands on a N97 before we look at taking it apart…
I have just pre-ordered the Nokia N97 from http://www.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk/N97 and got the handset for free and the monthly contract I went for is only £39.15 per month. I get free minutes and texts and also calls to landlines are free. Have a look, they have got quite competitive deals on there.
