In a window design for this first impression, it seems Nokia does not take much to break through. The construction is generally a variation of the Communicator which was proved already tested the market and also the famous image of smart.
His form factor is basically bermekanisme sliding, but is not really a full sliding because of the slide only to two-thirds, then take the open position of about 30 degrees facing our faces. This maneuver while opening the keyboard underneath. Unfortunately, there is a
camera button on the back of the lot must terpencet by finger pedestal when handfuls of being moved.
Handfuls of design is also less intuitive to shift, at first glance hard to tell which parts were harud slide. Shift also felt a bit heavy.
QWERTY keyboard was comfortable squeezed to the size makes it easy enough pemencetan affairs. Backlight adequate help illuminate the letters on the keys, either at the time of both dark and light.But the placement of the Shift keys and Hollywood that there is only one, not a double so that it can be placed on both sides, a little inconvenient.
Dimensions are quite bongsor, but they are already familiar with
N-series phones, the Communicator, and Eseries, will not object to this measure. Surface for most of the chassis is not shiny aka doff, not enough help to smooth the holding cell phone dead weight is 150 grams.
In terms of hardware, the N97's internal memory be a very large, 32GB. Was also coupled with a microSD memory slot for up to 16GB. It's like a storage device about 10 thousands of MP3 songs.
According to some sources, 434 MHz ARM11 processor also becomes the main brain for all the hard work of computing in this sophisticated mobile phone.
The screen is a major component in the overall design.
Nokia N97 installed display 3.5 "with 16.7 million colors and 360x640 pixel resolution, as presented in the
Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. This wide-screen pretty comfortable to hold the touch-touch affairs. Yes, the N97 is a phone with touch screen.
Speaking of the touch screen, the N97 does not provide a stylus for this purpose. This means that the menu suggested penutulan done with a finger. But from testing conducted signals, with the finger less penutulan provide a quick response. That nails, pointy things, and the stylus from other gadgets, even providing a more satisfactory results. Faster screen response.
To serve this touch screen interface like Nokia S60 5th edition. The interface and touch technology allows the display treats enriched with widgets gadget is a current trend. Widget is a mini application or that can be displayed directly on the main screen. Users can choose which widgets will be installed. Because of its miniature, the number of widgets that can perform more than one in the same time. Generally widgets are used to display the site content or applications on the Internet. So prepare to fill the N97 with a card that has unlimited internet connection and a flat maximum for this widget.
Widget collection screen (homescreen) is the main screen the N97. Was to access the full menu, kta haru go back deeper into the main menu. There is a special button to go back and forth affair this menu, there is at the bottom right next to the screen.
There are two display modes, ie standing (portrait) and resting (landscape). But with the existing design, fashion seems to be resting more widely used. Different if the phone's position and thus resting comfortably tangan.Untuk arrested with two trips to the second position, the position sensor technology used.
In general, the display shows a very high-quality visuals. The colors appear sharp and detailed. Because the light sensor technology, the screen did not dim when used in bright situations because the abundant sunlight.
Multimedia
Of an expected Nseries multimedia course. And it is fun to explore all of the N97 multimedia offer.
Starting from the camera, the lenses immediately attract attention because of (re) confirmed by the Carl Zeiss Tessar optics 5 megapixel resolution. This resolution is now a middle class in the mobile arena with cameras. But the presence of these optics is promising because there has the same type installed on other Nokia types never disappoint.
The pictures are snap signals in various objects indicates that the maximum results will be obtained in adequate lighting conditions, not less, and also not excessive. In ideal conditions, the images appear sharp with colors that can be "out" unhindered "noise". Shooting from a short distance can also be handled properly.
Wide screen, with a large memory support, allows us to enjoy movies on the phone intact. Processors and graphics hardware is adequate to handle the heavy graphics such as film type compression results of the DVDs. The more comfortable again, no TV out so that what is being done on mobile phones, including film, can be transferred to the big screen TV. And suguhannya ciamik, considering there are going to lose quality due to compression process.
Audio is another treat. The speakers are employed quality mediocre. Another problem when external speakers plugged into high-end quality, and perhaps this is expected, proximate to the TV out function to play the movie on the big screen.
Good GPS performance. The acquisition of the satellite does not take many breaks, especially if aided by AGPS. Tip to find an immediate connection with the satellites: sliding it open.
In the Nokia Map features are available also a compass to indicate the direction of the wind. This compass symbol will change color from red to green when it is actively working. So when the compass encircled in green, showed a new direction can dipecaya. Tips to get "green" compass: rocking-roll or roll his mobile phone.
Connectivity
Widget installed on average devote themselves to an Internet connection. Therefore logical that the Internet connectivity and Wi-Fi is one of the elements that must be examined seriously.
N97 carry
HSDPA technology. The highest level of data connections (for the time being in the country) is of course dependent on the operator's performance following its BTS.
If the operator's performance Shining, the N97 also looks annoying. How not? If you already set up various widgets on the homescreen, but when the connection hape Shining Shining also became part because of the existing widgets as the main menu can not be loaded completely. This can backfire because people tend to think of the performance of a lelet phone, but probably not his fault entirely.
The solution is not too many widgets that display must be connected to the Internet at any time. One is a Facebook widget. Maybe this will be maintained in the homescreen many owners because the most popular N97 today.
Likewise, there is a new offer from Nokia, which is Ovi. This is a portal that was built to accommodate a variety of Nokia Internet activity of users. Inside is an e-mail, file storage, applications, and so on. To take advantage of this facility also needs a reliable connection. In the test signals, as long as HSDPA or 3G signal obtained, the activities to the Internet with handheld computers can be carried out within the shortest possible time.
Connection with Wi-Fi went smoothly. In the test, there is no obstacle is within access to the Internet through the hotspot office. Only occasional Wi-Fi and GPRS act together, in this case one should be decided in advance to avoid errors.
E-mail is also one of the main selling points N97. Setup was easy to do. The interface has come closer to an email in Outlook. It would be more simple setup it again if it had Ovi Mail.
