Nokia n97 mini. It’s all in the name

September 8th, 2009

Rarely has a phone’s title (especially one from the notoriously bland-naming Nokia) done such a good job of summing up a phone that it actually leaves us slightly lost for words. Us! Lost for words! Amazing, isn’t it.

But what the fudge are we supposed to do with the Nokia N97 Mini. Because… well… that’s it. It’s an n97, but smaller. More mini. Less maxi.

It does all the things the n97 does, but in a more miniature way. Just as the normal n97 does all the things the n97 mini does, but in a more maximum zoom kind of way. Not that that makes any sense.

Well, they’re not completely identical, we hear some pedants at the back arguing. The mini Nokia N97 comes with only 8GB of internal storage, whereas the big boned original had a whopping 32GB. But then you can buy a 16GB microSD card for about £25 if you shop around, so that’s not really an issue. And there’s all sort of hoo-haa about how the mini is more connected, and allows people to update their status on Facebook even quicker than ever. However, try as we might, we can’t find a £25 solution to this travesty.

There’s a bunch more actual opinion in this Nokia N97 mini review, but we’ve simply, honestly, got nothing to say. Apart from: go look at these Nokia N97 Mini deals, and ooohhh, shiny, look at that (in relation to perhaps the only good video Nokia have made about one of their products in the last five years that you can find below):

New Nokia E75 Hi Res images

March 16th, 2009

Courtesy of our friends over at Symbian world, we are able to bring you some hi res images of the all new Nokia E75.

This is just one of the images that we borrowed (cheers guys). To see the rest, check out their post here. The slide out Qwerty kyboard is becoming quite a feature on Nokia mobile phones, with the Nokia E55 and the Nokia N97 all having slide out QWERTY keyboards of some nature. It certainly suits the business users, who are looking to send longer emails, rather than just text messages. We will let you know about release dates for the E75 as soon as we know more!

5 of the hottest Nokia mobile phones right now

February 6th, 2009

We have spent a bit of time looking at the various Nokia Handsets that are available at the moment and have compiled a quick list of the 5 best Nokia mobile phones that are currently available, or that are soon to be released by the Mobile phone giant. We have tried to present a range of handsets, from budget handsets, to the top of the range, all singing all dancing Nokia phones. Do let us know if you think there should be other models included here.
1) The Nokia N97. Ok it isn’t out just yet, but when it finally released in Q2 of this year, you can expect it to go down a storm. It uses the latest Symbian OS and promises to offer a much smoother experience for the user. This will also be Nokia’s 2nd foray into the touch screen market… watch out Iphone
2) The Nokia 5800. We might be a little touch screen crazy here at Nokia Blogged, but we love the 5800. It is also cheaper than the Nokia N97, so you do get a lot for your money here. The other great thing about the Nokia 5800 is that it comes with Nokia’s new “comes with music” service, allowing unlimited downloads of your favourite tracks. An excellent mid range proposition in our opinion.
3) The Nokia 6208 Classic is set to replace the older, slightly slimmer 6500 Classic. It promises to be a big seller on pay as you go as it offers great features for a very good price.
4) The Nokia 6260 Slide is a great little phone for those of you who like your slider phones. It comes with 3G and GPS so you can be sure to never get lost again. A fantastic little handset with decent price tag.
5) The Nokia 6300 – Yes it’s an old timer now, but this phone is fantastically reliable and has an excellent battery life. You can also get this handset with some great free gifts if you shop around.
That concludes our top 5 list of the best Nokia mobile phones out there at the moment. If you are thinking of getting a new mobile phone any time soon, be sure to check these little babies out.

Nokia impresses all with the N97

December 15th, 2008

The Nokia N97 was released for all to see in Barcelona last week and has already been touted as an Iphone beater. What makes this device so special, besides its massive 32GB of internal memory, is the fact that it has both a touch screen and a qwerty keyboard. This makes the device much more palatable for th e average business user. Of course you will also get a lot of the other goodies that you expect from Nokia, including USB connection and for the first time Nokia has started using desktop widgets, pulling in data to your desktop in real time. You will be able to get the Nokia N97 on contract from as early May 2009, but we will let you know as soon as we have definite information.
