Product Description
N97 MINI 8GB 5MP CAM QWERTY GPSPERPMAPS FM TRANSMITTER A2DP

Amazon.com Product Description
Designed for the needs of Internet-savvy mobile phone users who are also conscious of style, the Nokia N97 Mini takes everything that was great about its full-sized N97 predecessor and shrinks its size by almost a half-ounce and shaves its thin profile by 12 percent. Like it's bigger sibling, the N97 Mini includes a full QWERTY keyboard that flips open at an angle for optimal viewing as well as a touch-enabled display (3.2 inches) for easy navigation through the phone's customizable home screen.



The N97 Mini's face slides open at an ergonomic angle for easy viewing while typing on the full QWERTY keyboard.


Capture high-resolution photos and DVD-quality video using the 5-megapixel digital camera.
With integrated GPS sensor and the newest edition of Ovi Maps (full version pre-loaded on this phone or available as a free download from nokia.com/maps), you'll enjoy all essential car and pedestrian navigation features as well as the ability to use navigation features even when not connected to a cellular network--great for extending battery life and saving on international roaming charges. Features include turn-by-turn voice guidance, over 6,000 3D landmarks in over 200 cities for quick recognition of the landscape around you, access to Lonely Planet travel guides, and detailed maps for over 180 countries (see more details below). You'll also be able to keep moving in the right direction with the integrated electronic compass.

And the N97 Mini comes with a Nokia Navigation Accessory Kit, which includes a mobile charger and Nokia mobile holder with easy mount--enabling you to mount the N97 Mini to your dash or window.

The N97 Mini includes 8 GB of on-board storage and is expandable via optional microSD memory cards (up to 16 GB in size). It also includes integrated Wi-Fi connectivity (802.11b/g) for accessing open networks at work, home, and on the road from a variety of wireless hotspots. You'll also be able to connect to a wide variety of peripherals--including stereo headphones--with the Bluetooth 2.0+EDR capabilities.

The 5-megapixel camera offers high-quality Carl Zeiss optics, 16:9 and DVD-quality video capture, and support for services like Share on Ovi for immediate sharing over HSDPA and WLAN. Other features include an easily customizable home screen, access to both personal and corporate e-mail, Quickoffice document viewers, TV-out capability for displaying photos and videos on external televisions, stereo FM radio, USB 2.0 connectivity, and up to 7.17 hours of GSM talk time (4 hours when using 3G networks).

Unlocked Phone
This unlocked cell phone can be used with a GSM network service provider and it provides quad-band connectivity (850/900/1800/1900 MHz). It does not come with a SIM card, and it requires that you provide a SIM card for usage with your selected service provider. This phone comes with a full manufacturer's warranty.

Additionally, this phone can be paired with 850/1900 MHz UMTS/HSDPA 3G networks in the United States (as well as 900/2100 MHz 3G networks found around the world, including in Europe and Asia). When paired with a compatible 3G network, you'll enjoy a high-speed connection offering a variety of feature-rich wireless services--from data connectivity to your office to multimedia streaming, and take advantage of simultaneous voice and data services. In areas not served by a 3G network, you'll continue to receive data service via EDGE network (depending on network compatibility).

Note that the downloading of maps, games, music and videos and uploading of images and videos involves transferring large amounts of data. Your service provider may charge for the data transmission, and the availability of particular services and features may vary by carrier.

No Hidden Costs

No additional licenses needed for extra countries, regions or services like traffic information or city guides. Data charges from network operators may apply.

Voice Guidance and Traffic Information
Turn-by-turn, voice guided navigation comes free for both drivers and pedestrians. For drivers this includes lane assistance, traffic information, safety camera, and speed warnings. For pedestrians, this includes shortcuts through parks and pedestrian-only zones for over 100 cities around the world as well as 6,000 3D landmarks in over 200 cities to help you find exactly where you are.

Unique Hybrid Technology
Ovi Maps is built on an advanced technology called hybrid vector maps. Vector maps are high quality but less data intensive and allow you to continue to navigate even if you lose your network connection. This means that maps downloaded or updated across a network connection are about half the size of bulky bitmaps used by other mobile map providers. The hybrid technology ensures that, unlike other providers, any downloaded map data is stored on the device for future use.

No Network Connection Required When Navigating
Avoid expensive, battery-draining network connections with Nokia's unique hybrid technology. Maps can be pre-loaded on to your Nokia smartphone so you can set Ovi Maps to offline mode, saving battery power, and the navigation system will still work. This is particularly useful for those worried about data connection costs when travelling abroad or when you are travelling through areas with little or no network coverage.

Best Global Coverage
You take your mobile with you wherever you go in the world so, as standard, voice guided navigation for both pedestrians and drivers is available for 74 countries in 46 different languages and there are maps for over 180 countries. This gives you the best maps with the largest global coverage for free.

4 out of 5 stars I like it...   July 21, 2010
rarguedas2o
I like this phone... It's very useful and very elegant. Take good pictures, nice sound, and the screen es very responsive.
I do not like the fact that is a little slow, and in my country doesn't have maps...
The software could be better, the hardware is great!!



5 out of 5 stars The best phone I've ever owned!!!   July 21, 2010
Linda M. King (Northeastern PA)
I've owned many cell phones over the years, including 4 previous Nokia phones, including the N95 and the E75. This N97 Mini far surpasses the quality and features of the others by far. The build quality is excellent. The slide works perfectly - not too easy to open, and not too tight of a fit either. The call quality is better than the other Nokia's I've owned and the volume in every respect is louder than the others as well.

The touch screen is great - works well with a stylus too. The keyboard is great (I hated the keyboard on the E75). Overall I'm so happy I purchased this phone, and with the free navigation, it's like getting an extra bonus!



2 out of 5 stars Nice looking phone but not up to par with other smartphones   June 14, 2010
M. Lee
1 out of 2 found this review helpful

When I decided to transition from a regular phone to a smartphone, I thought this was an excellent choice given my previous phone was a Nokia as well. I used this phone for one week and here are my thoughts:

Pros:
- Small form factor, which is great even with the slide out keyboard
- Solid-feeling physical keyboard
- Fast wi-fi connections
- Nice picture quality with the rear camera
- Front-facing camera, making for easy self-portraits
- Free voice turn-by-turn navigation provided by Nokia's OVI Maps

Cons:
- Slow processor by current standards. This may have contributed to the next item.
- OS is slow. The S60 5th edition OS may be a bit long in the tooth given that it's being used to power a touchscreen device. Speaking of which, I had to frequently use a bit more force to scroll than I was expecting.
- OS is buggy...at least the version that I was using when I had the phone. Things in general were OK if I used the phone with the pre-loaded apps. But after downloading a number of apps from the OVI Store, I discovered I ran the risk of causing memory errors, which requires a "hard reset" of the phone to completely get rid of. The use of certain memory cards could create problems too unless you format them with the phone. (Note: There was an update to the OS that was being released, but it was unavailable for the US version of the phone when I had it. This may now be available so the stability issues may have improved.)
- OVI Maps does contain voice turn-by-turn navigation, but if your car has a bluetooth phone speaker system, check to see if it accepts streaming audio (A2DP). If it does, then the voice navigation will work fine. Otherwise, you will not hear a voice coming from your phone during navigation. The reason is that upon detection of a bluetooth connection, OVI Maps attempts to stream the sound through that connection regardless of its compatibility - and there is no option to use the internal phone speaker instead. This not a fault of the phone per se as it is a software issue with OVI Maps, but something to consider if you were looking forward to using this feature.

I really wanted to like this phone, but the slowness, bugs, and voice navigation issues were a bit too much for me given the price paid, so I returned it after about a week.



4 out of 5 stars Great phone for travel   June 13, 2010
R. Adams (Riverview, FL)
4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I purchased this phone for the sole purpose of using it during my travels. I travel worldwide, and am out of the US more than I'm in it. I was in the market for a phone that had the following capabilities:

Quad-band, so it'll work in all the countries I visit
Unlocked, so I can slip in different SIM cards for said countries
GPS, so I could find my way around
Good camera (5mp or better), so I can take pics on the fly without having to pull out my actual camera
Good battery life, so I don't have to constantly recharge
Touchscreen, because I have always been a fan of this feature
QWERTY keyboard, because as much as I love a touchscreen, I like a dedicated keyboard for punching out my texts
Slider phone, because I want both the big touchscreen and a keyboard

This phone has all of the above qualities I was looking for, so I snapped it up. Before this phone, I used in iPhone while at home in the US and purchased the Sony Xperia X1a for my travels. As much as I loved the zippy OS and intuitive interface of my iPhone, it was locked into a service plan and had a pretty crummy camera as well as no physical keyboard. I let my contract expire and I purchased the Xperia. That phone was lovely to look at; very sleek and solid with a cool keyboard. But after a few weeks with it, I realized how hard of a time I was having typing with it (and I have pretty small fingers), so I began a new search for a phone and came across the Nokia N97 mini. I actually saw it for the first time in a market overseas, and then ordered mine online. The N97 mini is very easy on the eyes. Even though the color was listed as black, it has a metallic maroonish bezel. The back of the phone is metal and the front is quality plastic, giving this phone a solid weighty feel in your hands. It slides open easily (but not loosely), and flips up at an angle for better viewing while typing. The keys are very tactile and although a little close together, pretty easy to type with. I've read many reviews that knock this phone for its off center space bar, and a few reviews ding them further if the user is left handed, but I'm left handed, and I have no problem using it. You just have to get used to hitting the spacebar with your right thumb. No biggie.

Call quality is great. Voices are clear and loud. I've traveled to some remote parts of the world, and even with spotty cell coverage due to rudimentary networks, I can place a call and it'll go through.

The OS isn't as fast or sleek as the iPhone, and the touchscreen isn't as responsive, nor does it have multitouch (which I sort of miss), but it's much better than a Windows based OS and with a little playing around with it, you get used to it.

The camera is also pretty good. Picture quality won't be as great as a standalone camera, obviously, but for a cell phone camera, this one is pretty impressive. Pictures come out crisp and the color stays true. I've used the camera function to take most of my pictures since I've been overseas. I barely bring out my regular camera now, unless I want to take specialty photos (pictures at night, macro).

The apps that come pre-installed are mediocre to good. Ovi maps, Facebook, YouTube, and a few others that I don't really use. For me personally, the Ovi store is pretty impossible to use. Their online store is buggy and customer service is sub-par at best, but that's not a ding on this phone, as it would be that way with any Nokia phone.

The Nokia N97 mini is an excellent phone for traveling. The physical aspects of this phone is solid enough that it'll have no problems holding up to wherever you take it, although I would still recommend a screen protector and case to avoid excess dust and scratches. It works as a one stop gadget, as you can watch movies, listen to music, play games, surf the internet, place calls, find where you are with the GPS, and take pictures all with one gadget in your bag. Highly recommended.



3 out of 5 stars Lots of features but performance is lacking   June 3, 2010
V. Abiraj (Trinidad and Tobago)
This could have been a great phone. It has lots of features. The main problem is either the hardware is not powerful enough to run the software or the software is too bloated and buggy. I think I would blame the software as the phone gets very slow at times which can be very annoying. Rebooting the phone fixes most problems except when the phone freezes on reboot. From what I have seen this is called the White Screen of death. When this happens you have to do a hard reset to get the phone to start. Many times this is caused by simply downloading and installing new apps from the Nokia OVI store. I would think Nokia would have tested and approved each app it puts up in the store for download but it doesn't seem so. Nokia needs to pay more attention to this. Also I wish Nokia would have made expensive phones like these (since these are their Flagship models) more upgradeable like Android phones. The new Symbian OS is out and I am stuck with an expensive piece of lackluster performing hardware. Nokia has good ideas but their execution is poor. Nokia also does not even have an Original pouch or case for this phone to date unless you go to their Europe website. Now don't get me wrong, the phone is pretty good. It just could have been better.
