Review: Mobileburn's Monster Review of the Nokia N97

This is one of the Nokia N97 reviews I have been waiting for, and it was a nice surprise to see Ricky Cadden, the Guru, take the helm of such a major handset review.

Transition black looking stunning with this charcoal grey and gun metal rim combination.

Spanning 8 pages, the review is extremely in depth, covering the following topics, as typical of MobileBurn:

• Physical Aspects
• Core Functions
• Multimedia/Applications
• User Interface
• Conclusion
• 3 gallery pages.

To sum it up – excellent build quality, great multimedia, let down by lack of RAM and unstable firmware. I’d discuss it more in depth but I don’t want to get into another full blown Nokia rant tonight. Check out the review, Ricky pretty much covers all that needs to be said.

Oh…can’t hold it in:

Grrr at:

• the slow loading of content to the 32GB via cable. Much prefered the memory card+reader route. Files load in seconds. There’s a memory card slot, but it’s hidden from you under the battery cover. What a pain!
• Slow starting camera that performs really bad in low light
• No N-gage support yet

…Ok…ok…I’ll stop there. I realise I am getting too overly critical without showing too much love for Nokia. >_< It’s just that I really want to see them improve and stay ahead of the game – reinforcing awareness of faults that users have experienced will hopefully somehow trickle down to someone who can sort these issues out.
