Nokia N97 mini - User Reviews

  • I like this symbian phone very much

  • I lik this

  • how do you update ur software??

  • Symbian is great, still using N97 mini (writing this), N8 and my all time favorite 808. Symbian was first in user friendly and all around multimedia devices.

  • Writing this on used N97 mini. I had to get it, it's so beautiful and I simply adore it's awesome qwerty keyboard laptop style.

  • Guys, the phone was released in 2009 and discontinued for many years - and the display size for sure was the least of the worries considering the rubbish Symbian OS etc.

  • are you blind or what? Does it must have 7inches to be enough to you?

  • My claustrophobia is REALLY getting me with this phone... :( The N97 is already small enough (at 3.5") but the N97 mini?! What?!

  • rushplayer can playe all videos except very high resolution ones, but it is slow

  • it can play mp4 videos mpeg4 like ones you record, but it can't play ones like from youtube which are h264, nokia x7 can play both, so maybe if one file was copied from that firmware it would work

  • I think this was the best phone ever except for the lack of memory and processor speed. Other than that no problem at all. I wish they would RE release it with Android. Nokia would be great again.

  • when i dawnload mp4 video it doesn't played .

  • I do have new N97 mini if somebody is looking for it

  • don't worry buy it

  • u may buy this for 50euros, 100euros is too much for this fone. no app avilable, very slow response, eve worst resistive touch, i know that there was a time when this fone's touch was considered good, but not now considering capacitive touch experience, seriously, there was a time when i thought of buying N97 or N97mini, bub didn't. right now this fone is obsolete-from market & people's minds.This fone is like that beautiful girl in class which one stares at in class but doesn't talk to her, and the after 10 or 15 yrs smiles thinking how pretty she was.But then not possible to make her girlfriend now as its too late. JUST not buying these fones will add to the respect we all have for these N series Giants, for which every mobile lover dreamt of in those days. thinking about these fones brings a good smile on my face, nothing more than that, i suggest, u too bring a smile on ur face by just looking at the fone and move ahead in life to buy a good android fone.

  • i bought it as exact same time as you did. i am totally satisfied with it. it does what ever i want it to. i think u dont know how to use it dear.

  • This is the best phone ever created by Nokia and other.

  • hey... i'm about to use this phone.... Wanna, it is good.... Should I buy it...? Hey guys lett me know..... Please.

  • I bought this phone back in 2009. It was a sad sad phone. It was supposed to be the flagship of Nokia. It represents everything that went wrong in that company. After using this expensive garbage for 6 months with constant freezes (could not even surf the web over 5 minutes due to low RAM) I just had to slam it on the wall, which resulted in broken screen. I have been using samsung phones ever since.

  • It has class specification.But battery duty is poor.

  • hello guy i like nokia series i like N97 smart phone

  • battery is the only problem from my two or three years of using it

  • Yoyo totally gettin this phone yoyo out

  • It is supper cell

  • It is supper cell

  • It is supper cell

  • Yes..

  • I am using this phone since year 2010 i.e., from last 3 years. I have found this phone quite useful apart from few drawbacks here and there. sunlight legibility is very poor and outdoors under direct sunlight it's very difficult to operate. Another drawback is the lack of video codec support in the default media player. All third party software such as smartmovie, tweaked version of coreplayer, UC player failed to show the desired result and video played through them either turned out to move too slow or were choppy. However, on a positive side I must say that it has got a decent camera with powerful flash, useful 8 GB mass memory and a solid metallic body. I am using garnet color and it's metallic body gives me a premium feel unlike phones these days which are made of plastics.

  • you got to do the n97 hard reset and everything will start to flow again

  • do the hard reset man, it will be back to what it shld be

  • this is gud phne. bt a big prblm cant play mp4 videos on this phne.

  • Nowadays everybody has an android or ios phone, but regardless of what they say, this phone is still awesome. The qwerty keyboard is the best way to write, and also it's a simple fast phone, but it has too low ram memory, so you can't do many things if you opened whatsapp

  • How about the signal of wifi? sometimes, if the signal not good or low, will make the connection very slow. or maybe over process in your gadget

  • its a good phone, no such issue in it i m using it for many months

  • i have a samsung galaxy note and nokia pureview but i can't just part with my 3-year old n97mini. the sound quality of this phone is that i can listen to music for hours without irritating my eardrum. it has the perfect combination of treble and bass i think. and the physical slide-out keypad is another reason too. it has its advantage when it comes to text input.

  • I have it for 18 months. After 2 months it started to get all kinds of memory issues, no application opened in background but it was still asking me to close apps due to low memory. After I upgraded the OS, it started to go crazy, to consume battery in 4-5 hrs, the calls history was getting deleted every 45-120 minutes with no action from my side. Now...I just hope that I can find someone who wants to buy it..

  • The worste phone I have ever had!is sucks.When I turn it On ,i must wait about 5 minutes Minimaly to show the nokia logo...!etc.

  • Been Using this mobile 1 year,i can say its great for my day to day life wonderful

  • a great phone i swaped 3 iphone 4s for it and it was totaly worth it

  • 7_1_26_0

  • I encountered the same trouble . I was giving it to nokia service three times and it didn't change anything so I got rid of this mobile yesterday . It's a real pity they didn't put inside some stronger CPU

  • I love the way it looks , but after it's too crappy , it hangs a lot , when I was using internet the device was restarting every 10-20 minutes . So I don't recommend to buy it . Probably it would be much better if they would place in it some stronger CPU , at least 600 mhz and 512 ram , then maybe it would work as it's supposed to .

  • what is the latest vision for n97mini please? i've already v12 and how can i update new vision? please reply me

  • best design,weight qwerty with other words best cabrio ever made

  • The N97 mini is a great N-series cell phone form Nokia. I like the form factor-has a convien QWERTY keyboard and with its slide-tilt design makes typing comfortable and fast. The resistive touchscreen is fine-you need to press a bit harder to choose something, unlike on say iPhone which has a capacitive screen. It's a nice snapper too with a 5MP autofocus camera featuring a quality Carl Zeiss Tessar f2.8 lens-even has a dual LED flash for shooting in low-light conditions which gives good illumination. The autofocus works brilliantly, capturing nice and sharp macro photos as well as landscape, portraits,etc. While not near the likes of the 808 with a 26mm wide-angle lens, the N97 lens is wide enough. Lots of options for shooting-from a 18 frame burst mode, to ISO and WB settings and a handful of preset scene modes (there's a M setting to save your favorite options). Easy to record video too-not HD but saves in MP4 format.

  • u mst go for nokia n97 mini.../...its gud and easy to use../...

  • i lyk nokia n97 especialy the vlingo app that allows to to talk to the phne when i want to open appz,make phone call and mre the keybord is so easy to use 3.5g network so fast i love everythng except battry backup is so poor

  • this is the best phone in all phones i have used its very good

  • i want to buy n97 nokia guys pls advice me on which 1 to go 4 curve3 or n97 nokia pls guys i need ur help.

  • why is the no software update available

  • one of the worst phones i have used. couldn't wait to sell it. the battery cover is terrible, once bent, never came back to perfect shape. the phone itself hanged/crashed a LOT! the only thing good about this phone is the sliding keyboard, it looks cool. waste of 446 euro.

  • software can you sent them to me please my email [email protected] am having a plomblem with my ceratificate when i try to update any thing is asking for certificate it shows untrusted,trusted but i dont have trusted one can you help me please.

  • aryan im also facing this prob....

  • you must go to the service center & can get suggesions from there.....i am also suffering from same problem..

  • i read this phone feature and detail i am very impress to this mobile phone nokia make this cell phone that match with my desire. would you like to me anyone about its charges in PKR. thank you.

  • Someone answer me pls. my mini is shutting itself off especially when i use 3G(browsing),is it the processor that is underpowered or spinning more?,or is it a major problem? im worrying.....

  • I think this phone is very good procing and vvvry good picture result in darklight i am usin for 2 or 3 years its vrryy good

  • hey u r right mr. Solanki same prob of my self

  • 100%, it supports whatsapp. Am using it on mine but i am having the same problem of memory full, close some app.

  • am facing the same memory full stuff. Went to the nokia care and it was flashed but still! Wat shld i do? Pls tell me...

  • how big is the file you are trying to copy? if it is over 4gb then you wont be able to copy it over, the filesystem on the device is fat32 which only accepts the copying of files smaller than 4gb. i hope this helps

  • The original battery pack for N97 mini is BL-4D (3.7V)

  • Sorry I am unable to understand such terrible grammar and spelling

  • Hello ARC, only way is to open the contact you want to see and wait for 2 seconds for it pop up with a very small window displaying the voice call number (provided if it is highlighted)

  • This is a complete wastage of money. Phone keep saying "Memory full, close some applications" whereas I don't have them running all the time. It is its RAM issue that get overloaded everytime we open any app but RAM doesn't flush itself unless we do a reboot or use some 3rd party apps to flush it. Navigation is slow. Bluetooth strucks quite often. Browser gets itself closed automatically during usage. Unable to un-install apps preloaded into phone memory. OVI map or GPS facility rocks but keep poping up with a message "Memory full" repeatedly and closes itself after a while. However Music is extremly good, Camera picture and flash quality are its major strenghts. QWERTY keyboard with slider facility enables to you sport some style. Video quality is almost HD. It supports motion sensor games. OVI map is one of the best feature it has got. Being a smart phone it must have had a good RAM to support its features. Overall it would say "Worst ever phone to use".

  • flash the set kind of virus

  • Hello, Fellow N97 Users, How should I know from Contacts simultaneously name and the number? If any one like you asks me for the number of a common friend, it is rather hell for me to know it. If I go for contacts only name comes and from there I have to roam around the world to pick the number. Is there a shortcut?

  • hy guys..what i need to do. when i switch on my nokia it wrote that memory is full but it isn´t

  • ovi store or getjar

  • this is my 2nd symbian phone.. it's perfectly fine.. though im experiencing low signal most of the time.. still it's tolerable.. all in all, i like it soooo much..

  • try one or all of these: -free 200mb of your phone memory -change or remove your protector and/or jelly case -remove all the software update you made -(if all of these didn't work) try to hard reset

  • mine can stand up to 5-6 hours of continuous browsing.. for your 2nd issue.. if you have protector and jelly case.. maybe its not compatible with the phone.. try to remove or change it..

  • just go to file manager.. look for the app that you want to install then double click.. choose where do you want to install it (just choose mass memory) then there it goes..

  • yes.. it can.. just press the menu button and choose the menu icon.. then you can open another app.. but don't open too many apps at the same time because it only has 434mhz..

  • Is it normal that sometimes white areas of the sreen is visible,is it normal?

  • Even it has 5mp,carl zeiss and auto focus the photo images is worst.My nokia 2730c s40 around 4000k is far better than dis phn,the menu is same,better videos streaming on 2g.

  • my n97 mini is two years old and i still use it, i plan to dispose of it by giving it to my niece but i can't seem to part with it because i still love its camera and music/sound quality... lately, my n97 mini would automatically connect to my home and office wifi. i just don't know what app is causing it.

  • you sell your handset its solution of your all problems........ok

  • i have problem in chrging the device and also geting in the wifi? any advice

  • I think it is a good phone though, I've been using it since 8 months it's all good not the best but it ain't bad you know what I'm saying? .... but nowadays, it's getting too old so DO NOT BUY this shit, holmes.

  • how to reset?

  • Sorry to hear that. I've had my N97 mini for almost two years now and I never had any charging problems like yours. And almost 200 apps and games on my device to date, and I'd say they installed rather well. No, I am not exaggerating. Even posting this using my Mini. You can never really say that it's the worst mobile, and shout out that it would fail for everyone like it did for you, because obviously it didn't. I guess some of us just know better how to use and troubleshoot rather than whine. :)

  • Use the built-in Facebook widget app on your N97. When you post a status update, it should show "via Nokia".

  • try to hard reset it...by turning it on while holding the shift + backspace + and space keys...

  • hi friends it is a very worst se,charjing problm 4m begining,and a lot of applications didn't instal,and its touch also bad

  • i have purchased this mobile in jan 2010...its the worst mobile from nokia...the battery life is too small...n there is a lot of touch problems...its better to buy nokia 1600 rather than nokia n97 mini

  • the nokia n97 mini have mostly display releted problam.

  • Ive had it for a year now and found problems with the software, the screen sometimes doesnt respond to touch and a huge reduction in battery life in just a few months after buying it. My opinion is get a touch and type phone

  • its the software problem

  • This is the worst choice u can ever make. the n97 mini will give a lot of problems mainly memory problems. there is not enough ram. My advice don't get the n97 mini. trust me I hav regretted usin this phone.

  • earlier symbian is the best OS for mobile as my openion, But have to pay and buy some applications. Windows mobiles also same as symbian. android is the best of Nower days with lot of free applications and games. Who likes to waist money???

  • earlier symbian is the best OS for mobile as my openion, But have to pay and buy some applications. Windows mobiles also same as symbian. android is the best of Nower days with lot of free applications and games. Who like to waist money???

  • Ok,but for me N97 mini's performance is quite well for a person like me.

  • The thing is the N97 mini has more stacked against it. It is the smaller versn of the N97 classic so people will constantly be watching what Nokia took out 2 make the mini(FM transmitter, 32gb internal etc.) even though they cost almost the same. then there's the fact that it is a higher quality phone than te 5800. The 5800 is lower in the price ladder with almost the same features no naturally it will b praised while the mini criticized, even though the mini is far superior. I should also point out 2 you that they don't run the same OS. The 5800 doesn't have the same home screen nor the same abilities to customize said homescreen. But one thing that the 5800 has that few phones can defeat is audio output. The 5800 is known for its gr8 sound both from its 2 speakers and from the 3.5mm jack. They are louder and clearer that the 2 speakers on the mini. The mini's biggest downfaal is that Nokia didn't make enough improvements over the N97 classic. So almost all the hate for the classic was transfered to the mini and then amplified by the fact that they mini has so many features excluded in it from the classic.

  • A while ago i visited the page of 5800 express music,and i saw MANY GOOD COMMENTS there,but when I look at the page of N97 mini here,most of the comments are BAD,WHY IS THAT SO?,Because for me,this unit is great and useful,so why are you commenting like that?,the both phones run on Symbian S60(S^1),I dont see many difference.And N97 mini was released in 2009 but the xpress music was released way back in 2008.Please Give me the difference of N97 mini to OTHER NOKIA PHONES.......

  • Hi, On the contacts tab one can put in the birthday details of a contact. How do I link the birthday to the calendar so that I can set an alarm when it is the contacts birthday/anniversary etc?

  • this is very smart mobile !

  • Yer realy correct

  • Fring no longer supports skype video calling due to threats of legal action from skype

  • Symbian does in fact support skype video-calling, but skype is yet to allow it. It did work well once upon a time with the aid of fring, but skype forced them to hault because they didn't want the competition. At 1st skype didn't care that fring was allowing video calling with skype but when the iPhone 4 was launched and fring made a version 4 the iOS that was the last straw and skype forced them 2 remove the skype video call option or face legal action. But there are rumours that skype will be allowing video calling for symbian^3 and later devices, but there will likely never be skype video calling for S60 :(

  • Adnan? My friend, sure it is posible video-calling with this Nokia, and the easiest way by using Fring. com, it does wery well, there is lot of other software that can do this nokia video calling and direct nokia phone video view. Adnan and anyone of you who are using Nokia symbian phones...if you are using Symbian phone like this, than you shall look at nokia symbian perspective software, and not be releated to apples and androids of whot they do and what they use...because that phones are comercial for profiters at large and not for eco-people...., but if you can't stand than go for droids and apples, but they will cost you lot of money on allmost every funny thing you will want to try on your phone thrugh their phone market. For web video calling get some software from freesoftware.eu or similar sites the apps, qik, fring, nimbus or similar, sens i can't remember by names this apps right now...so good luck.

  • You are full...when Nokia was able video calling...the apple and androids have not even ever existed....!

  • no you can not make a video call using skype because only iPhone and Android operating systems support skype video calling. Symbian does not support skype video call feature.

  • hey bryan tat spb shell key is available in the comments in the site getjar.com you can try it

  • we cann't make skype video call in this model

  • please kindle let me know if it can be use as web camaral

  • Yes it support video call dude !!!!

  • It is sported skype video call??? any one know?

  • Okay,thanks..

  • oh, I hope they make a full version then. I will look up the page on facebook now thanks:) I really hope U get the real thing

  • Worst Nokia phone I've ever used and I've been using them since 1996! Have had to send it off for repairs a few times. Has put me off buying Nokia again especially now they're using Windows OS instead of Andriod.

  • Thanks for that info,I think the "lite" word stands for the trial version,i tried it also to download it in Nokia Store but it failed,my mini said it is invalid file,so after that,it is only a 15day-trial,i think.Thanks :) Oh,also almost forgot,like tha page of Nokia N97 mini in Facebook and we try to contact there,just find me there,Goodluck!,..

  • my nokia n97 is not workin properly

  • Hey Bryan I just thought I should inform you that spb mobile shell lite is available for FREE in the app store. I just saw it a couple of days ago and downloaded it and it works fine, it looks like the same full version I had before and I can't find a difference so I don't know why it has 'lite' in the name. Maybe it is easier on the RAM :) (after my recent reset the spb mobile that I got third party doesn't work). The region I'm in doesn't get access to all the apps so if this one is available to me it should be there for everyone so check it out. I'm happy Nokia finally signed it, hopefully they are injecting new life into the app store. I saw that post about voyager or what ever it's name is and I can tell you for sure that it isn't anywhere close to as fun and cool spb mobile shell is. Let me know if you get it and how you like it.

  • Hi to this guys who is having problems with their N97mini look and it's usability. You shall check for firmware v30 i have rebuilt and fixed speed, anna grid layout and icons and cleaned uot from few uselles ads! Search for Alboooz fw on forum mobilesmania or dailymobile .se get the tools you need to flash your phone and you'll have super phone, but if you are not sure how to do, there is people who are willing to explain in forums, good luck.

  • I wish that Nokia will design a software update specifically designed to Symbian S60/Nseries(N97 mini) phones that have Symbian Belle or at least Symbian Anna I wish that Nokia Will read this.

  • Thank you for recommendation! That helps a lot! :)

  • To the best of my knowledge, it isn't harmful to the device but it may have side effects on long term use of the battery. Eventually the battery well develop memory of how long it usually lasts and will follow this. Example, if after a full charge you usually use heavy apps and kill the battery in about 4-5 hours then the battery will develop memory of this and will die about 5 hours after a full charge regardless of how much use it gets. My recommendation is to give it a break every now and then. Charge it and leave it aloe for as long as possible. Maybe even to die on its own. This should prevent it from developing memory. I charge my phone over night and leave it on my bed while I'm at school so That when I use it on the weekend it will last longer. As far as I know, your phone is safe but be wary of your battery. Hope that helped.

  • Can you answer me,does draining the battery of my N97 mini harmful for this device?pls. Answer me.because sometimes i accidentally drained my battery,while playing/Browsing the net.pls. Answer me.....coz im worrying.

  • Which one is better the original or mini? Original seems to have more memory (32Gb), FM transmitter, D-pad. Mini seem to have taken care of some design and firmware issues. How can one determine which is the right one for them?

  • Hey guys! I find a new solution if you want to "upgrade" the look of your N97 mini,Download "Voyager Homescreen" to Nokia Store and presto! Install then your done!

  • N97 mini is a nice phone,but there is dis one i am using.its kinda different from d normal N97 i know.i think its d windows version.what do you think?

  • Ok,thanks for the advice,i think i suffered it yesterday coz my N97 mini warned me:"close some applications and try again".

  • The N97 mini is a great phone! Congratulations Nokia!

  • yeah I downloaded the full version for free about 2 weeks ago and I love it. I wish I had bookmarked the page I got it from because it's hard 2 get a copy that doesn't have a certificate error. The 1st two copies I got would't install 1st because it was unsigned, then due to some random certificate error. But I did eventually get it. Just google 'spb mobile shell free full' and you should eventually get a good one. But I must warn you, it is pretty RAM hungry and I found that I couldn't run more than 2 apps @ the same time (and this was right after a hard reset that I installed it) so if you already suffer that problem then this will get eveen worse. I don't even use it now because of that. So be wary

  • hi.bro i have nokia n97.the only problem with it is it's size.but if you are not used to very slim phones it will do good.but it is way better than e72.i advice you to buy n97.

  • Hey..plze..tell that nokia e72 or nokia n97 is good in all aspects.....plze tell it frankly yaar.........plze........

  • good

  • I actually download spb mobile shell in google but the only problem I have is that it is only a 15 day trial of the full ver. My question if there is a free full version of it?

  • battery lasts for only half a day if you actually use the phone with its features!!!

  • batteryback up not good

  • can i order for this phone internationally and what is the duration of delivery and cost?

  • well I don't think Nokia will b producing anymore updates after v30 but regular people might still make a few custom firmwares.aside from that you can play with "spb mobile shell" the version i have is "3.7.498". U can google it 2 see what it is and download. U dont have to do any warranty voiding stuff. Just download and install, like an app and it changes ur layout almost completely. Its really a nice way 2 make ur ph feel new and different. U will b able 2 have up2 5 homescreens and it has a lot of animations and personalization. It will b pretty much impossible 2 find 2 phones running spb mobile shell with the exact same layout, that how customizable this is. It uses up some ram tho so b warned This could be me just being crazy but I feel like my battery lasts longer with spb :/ I use it while it's charging 2 and I wonder the same thing

  • yeah the e90 is really a beast, but the only feature it has over the n97 mini is a 4" display which isn't even touch sensitive. alone with the old symbian 3. But they are completely different device. If one is completely dedicated to texting the the e90 is as good as it gets, but if u need an all round media device then the mini is the best. It's more feature rich, not to mention is looks better lol.

  • no match for my e90 communicator Even c7. Yeah2 screen,touchscreen things,many others hav that But what it feels when u holding 2 mobiles but 1 simcrd at same time? How it feels when u open ur e90,some1 will say 'hey,is that a laptop??' Communicators,unmatched.

  • try reinstalling ur software after a hard reset

  • sorry bout that other post I accidently touched submit lol lol I like how enthusiastic u r but u r also very wrong when u said it has the same features as the c7, maybe u meant to say the c6 but the mini is better than the c6further more1. The c7 has a larger 3.5" amoled capacitive touch screen which is wayyyy better than the 3.2" resistive touch on the mini. Its more sensitive and the colors are much richer2. The c7 has gorilla glass which rocks but resistive touch screens cannot have gorilla glass and if it werent for me buying screen protectors then my screen would b in horrible condition3. The mini has two stereo speakers, the c7 doesnt. Which makes a big difference in sounce output quality4. The c7 takes up to 32gb memory cards the mini goes up to 16gb alog with twice the RAM5.the c7 has NFC support (just google it and u will see how cool it is)6. C7 has an 8mp fixed focus and the mini has a 5mp auto focus with advanced optics7. The c7 was launched with symbian^3 but updates to Anna and now Belle8. The c7 has a faster cpu and unlike the mini, the c7 has a dedicated gpu9. The c7 has usb on the go which is so awesome!!!10. The c7 also has an fm transmitter11. The mini has that gr8 qwerty keyboard (I'm writing this usingg that keyboard right now lol)so other than the camera, speakers and keyboard, the c7 is the much superior phone. So unless u reallly prefer qwerty physical keyboards than get the c7...

  • just go into with ur phone----setttings>phone management>device updates>options>check for updates with ur computer open nokia suite(connect phone an select suite when asked)>software updates> if there is an update for ur region u will see it here, if u already have the update or it isnt available for ur region nothing new will come up(if its not available for ur region it most likely means that nokia just doesnt care about u or the update is in a language that is inappropriate for u). My mini came with v12 but v30 rolled out after that. Sadly the udate was not for my region so my phone kept saying it was up to date, but I knew for a fact the new update was in english and nokia just didnt care about my region (i live in the caribbean btw) So my only solution was to either flash the update on with phoenix or get it from suite by tricking nokia into thinkn ur in another region. N.b. Flashing is dangerous and voids ur warranty, it can also destroy ur phone if any mistakes are made, so it should be ur last resort. But it is great for getting cool custom firmware PLEASE back up ur device before u do anything... 1. To flash it on u need to download the update with navifirm and then flash it on with phoenix(youtube will b ur friend and show u all about navifirm and phoenix) 2. And this is much more recommended. Using navifirm find ur phone, the update then the variation with the right language for u but DONT download, just look @ the product code showed in brackect as the end of the variation name (its supposed to start with a "05") then using NSS change ur phones product code to this new one and hard reset the device. Now plug into nokia suite and it should see ur phone an a new one. Now the update will magically be available to u. It might not work on the 1st changed product code as i had to change twice before the update worked (the 1st time the update kept getting an error) njoy. Please reply 2 let me know if it works...

  • update to my browser post. I just updated the firmware 2 days ago and its gr8 now!!! I can open tabs, its got nice animations 2 :) nice!!

  • just buy a composite cable(make sure one end is a 3.5 mm pic and the other side splits off into the 3 colors red, yellow and white) plug it into ur phone and tv and viola :). Not all cables work easily some u have to push all the way in and some u push only a certain amount. My tv-out works gr8 :) let me know if it works 4 u. N.b if u get any isseues menu>settings>phone>accessories>TV-O­ut Default profile: Active Profile TV aspect ratio: mines is normal TV system mines is PAL but it varies so NTSC might b whatg u need Flicker filter: turned mines off p.s. I dont mean to b disrespectful but ensure u have an original Nokia N97 mini if u wanna try this cuz chinese clones and dual sims dont have this function...

  • this is one of the best phone i ever used.

  • How to do TV output via this phone? some body tell me please....

  • this phone i have had it for 6 months used it for only 2 months and i was frustrated with it! the stupid thing hangs and i cant browse it always says too many application shut down some i did, and the next is no space...i have done hard reset several, it was no help...it freezes and hangs at will. i am defintely nt buying a nokia next time ..or i just go back to my E63 best phone ever!

  • gud

  • how can i upgrade my n97 mini software ?

  • ive been using this phone for two years now... and now the battery drain much faster with heavy usage, i have to charge it twice a day. with the touch response, at first it was a mess but when the final update came out, i had no problem with it. so update your phone's software/firmware. downloading files, yes it can, you even run it on the background and for the internet connection, depends how fast your network provider or wifi... but i use wifi for faster connection speed.

  • Pals pls do nt blame nokia about dis gr8 4one i av mine since last two yearz and is workin gr8 tankz to nokia

  • my nokia mini is is very problematic about battery its actual problem to share for all that it's battery IC is not good because of that it is too much bad

  • I have an N97 mini 9 months and I`m not satisfied with it.although it really has a great camera and a couple of other great things.I don`t suggest any of you to buy this phone.it really disappointed me,and I bet my next phone isn`t going to be a Nokia

  • Q: Is the battery good? A: I think the battery is ok, I am disappointed by it but idk how it compares to other smart phones (my dads iPhone 4 needs 2 charge every day and he only uses it 2 call ppl then my moms bb curve 9300 has 2 charge just as often but she gets a lot of emails), had it go 2 days on standby with about 4 hours of heavy use b4 I needed 2 charge it. But if I go out and listen to too much music for like 3 hours plus use a few apps on & off it will be dead 6 hours after a full charge. So if u won't be near a power supply at least twice a day and u like 2 use ur phone a lot then expect a dead battery by the time u get home Q: Is the touch better than the mini one? A: This is the mini one here's a link 2 the classic version and as far as I know the touch is better on the mini Q: Is the internet good? A: The internet gets the job done, adobe flash lite is pretty good but not as good as full flash support, the major disadvantage is that u can't open tabs(downloading UCBrowser or Opera mini will fix that) and ever since youtube updated their site u can no longer watch their vids thru ur browser u have 2 use the youtube app. Q: Can you download? A: yes you can, I have downloaded hundreds of songs and videos with my built in browser(it works better than the UCBrowser 4 sure) I have also downloaded close to 2,000 pics with the built in browser

  • i have nokia n 97 mini since 15 month and this phone master piece. Guys this phone have same featur of nokia c7. Ok so enjoy this phone.

  • YO urmmm.... I'm getting mixed awnsers about the phone I hav a few questions to ask 1. Is the battery good? 2. Is the touch better than the mini one? 3. Is the internet good? 4. Can you download?

  • go to www.online-convert.com then select convert to 3gp.. it works. i have n97 too. here in the philippines.

  • hi i am using n97 since 9 months. for 1 week i found that screen is not responding. can someone give some hint because i m unable to do my work in nokia n97

  • this phone is good but not better.... This doesn't support hd videoes......plz help withot converting videoes....how i play hd videoes ??? the green(call) & red(end) button of my mini are not working plz help

  • hi dear all i need to chick the price for nokia N97 mobile here in chick price but at's not opening the site i don't know why please make sure to open the site that we can chick the price easly thanks dear

  • well i started using my n97 mini around 16 months ago...in starting it worked very well then a problem of auto switch off and on arised....and after some days another provlem arised which is of battery back up..... it has excellent gps feature.....all applications are not supported...it gets hang.....superb qwerty keypad....

  • I have my N97 mini since 17 months. A very bad smartphone compared with the other brands available now. The only advantage is its excellent GPS. I am nearly sure my next smartphone will not be a Nokia.

  • try to update the software version of the phone,it works it will function smoothly.plus new apps are packaged.

  • 1st u need to clear up more memory atleast 85mb of RAM, its best ot just hard reset the damn thing lol. 2nd its all about the site u go to. some are very light and some with alot of flash intensive ads like the ones one low security sites or those with lots of large pics will eat ur memory up fast so always look 2wards mobile friendly sites...I hard rest my phone about a week ago and I havent gotten a full memory error since. The phone will move faster outside the browser as well...

  • well I have the mini and I love it. the key differences between the 2 are: DISADVANTAGES 1. the classic has 32gb built in against the mini's 8gb 2. the classic has a 3.5" screen against the mini's 3.2" 3. classic has camera lens protective slider mini has none 4. classic has FM transmitter which allows music to b broadcasted to any1 with a radio within a couple yards of u ADVANTAGES 1. The mini has a slightly more responsive touch screen 2. bcuz both screens have the same resolution the mini has a higher pixel density meaning cleaner picture 3. the mini has a much more high grade build to it, with a metal back cover. Neutral 1. the classic has D-pad navigation but the mini has 4 arrows and an enter key(its up to u which u prefer) Like I said, I really like my mini and no1 can stop the love I have 4 it. But just the other day I saw a tall friend of mine and he saw my phone and took pulled a N97 classic out his pocket and said to me "Everything about small boy" hahahaha. Which made me think that the greatest disadvantage to having the mini is that its just the smaller version of another phone :(...

  • I am using this phone for last 14 months and Now I have 2 questions: 1. Is there any bigger battery for it? 2. Does the OS up-gradable to belle? If it's up-gradable to belle, how is the performance?

  • Thanks 4 info......bye.....

  • yes, that's why it has a frnt facing camera. but ur mobile carrier needs to support its use. i cant video call bcuz my carrier doesnt have support for the function. but when u go in2 ur contacts and select one to call the phone will ask if it should make a video call or normal voice call...

  • My question is if I can make video calls? Thanks....

  • i think it is very good because as compared to n8 n other phones the mini is too good because its has keyboard which is a good option for the people wo feel prlm in using touch screen keboard the key board make eassy phone i m using this one n i m not going to seel it because i will keep it n will compareit with another

  • its battery is tooo short....very bad..im using it its a good one....but battery is upto 5 hrs...

  • Hmm ... It's true. After few months I re install the os!!! then it performs better!

  • I am using this phone for last 20 months and I don't think it's a very good one. But my problem is I am fond of QWERTY and from that point of view, mini is great. Battery life is too short specially if I browse and sync mail. Now I have 2 questions: 1. Is there any bigger battery for it? 2. Is it up-gradable to belle? If it's up-gradable to belle, how is the performance?

  • i wanna stop searching for wifi all time

  • hi frnds plz tell me about touch of mini is it better than 32 gb n also its slide n baterry timings n which is good mini or classic rep must

  • Very bad touch screen, battery life is too short, about one day (just 30min of calls, 5 mssg) Its not my recommendation!!! Im using this phone 1.5 year, but unfortunately Im Nokia fun!!! I will try, some android soon (SE ARC S or SE RAY S)

  • I love this phone, great phone

  • its a very best

  • Its CPU is worst, it gives message of memory full within 15 minutes of browsing, though the memory space is there still.......

  • rather say dont use this phone and it will work right..the more u use it the buggy it will become

  • its battery got no longer power as they mentioned

  • more weight......otherwise ok.

  • Terrible phone, buggy software. Most ppl I know are disappointed with it

  • its touch screen is not good !!!!!!!!!!

  • Its not perfect it works and stuff. But it lags and bugs often

  • Thank you so much ;-)

  • this phone is great!

  • You need to do a reset. On the phone ,

  • Just. Told. You are. Not using it right

  • H I there. The reply. Is. Your not using it right , the battery. On. My. Nokia n 97. Lasts. Two days.

  • This is. A super nokia. N 97 mini. It. Has. Everything. I need. For. My busy life. , I would. Say to anyone. Wanting to. Get. This. Phone. , go for. It I. Am. Very. Happy. With it. :)

  • To download games and more....Go to goole search and write "Nokia N97 mini free games" and click search. U ll find many free site, such as umnet.com, mobile9.com etc.

  • Good cell phone

  • phone is not working proply with purcesd time

  • Hey Try umnet.com

  • Hi, is there anyone here who knows how or where to download free games for N97 mini? Pls. post the url's so i can visit the site. Thanks.

  • this is the best mobile

  • this mob. is best

  • this mob. is best

  • ok, well in that case the phone should last about a day for you. It would easily last longer if it weren't for the fact that it automatically looks for WiFi ALL DAY!!!... There is no way to stop it, the most you can do is makes it search for WiFi every 10 minutes instead of every 1 minute :/. This really draains the battery, especially if you are always near a WiFi hotspot. And worse yet if you are connected. For example I conneted to my WiFi at home and now everytime I enter my house it connects, now this may seem convienient and it usually is, but for people that already have a low battery or have a data sim it will just be an unneccessary drain on energy (that can't be stopped). So the phone will last you a day or so but if you plan on not being near a power outlet of some sort (computer, wall plug, car charger) everyday then you better have a spare battery. Lol...

  • i want your mobile please i want seconds mobile use

  • N97 is more good compare to xperia any bady can use nokia and N97 is having good touch screan

  • I own the N97 mini and its a great phone. A few issues though 1. Resistive touch screen-although it is one of the best resistive touch screens you cab find on a phone, it still isn't a capacitive touch and that hurts to think about. 2. CPU- I don't know how to root, modify or hack a phone so I am stuck with stock specs and although the phone handles well it could really have been faster, I have used other phones with slower CPU's and they actually move faster. This leads me to believe either Nokia has prevented the CPU from operating at full capacity or the Symbian OS is just not fully using it, I'm sure it can be much faster. 3. Battery- Now before I bought this phone I heard the battery was bad but I bought it anyway. My battery lasts over a day when on stand-by but I love to listen to music and browse the web so on the weekend when I don't have school my battery will last about 6 maybe 7 or 8 hours if I'm lucky. I heard that I could by a more powerful battery, reset the one I have(which I don't know how to do) or get some battery booster to solve this problem but I think Nokia could have just given me a better battery from the get go. 4. Symbian S60 is a pleasure to use but it just isn't that pretty. It lacks the animations that I like to see on Iphones and it just isn't as bright and colorful, plus it lags alot 5. Nokia Apps- I no longer live in the USA and I am angered by the fact that Nokia does not allow people in the Caribbean full access to all the Apps available. A simple App like Windows Live Messenger was blocked when I tried to download so I had to get it from a third party website. SO I pretty much have to risk my phone to viruses to get a simple App the Nokia is offering to other countries for free. 6. The RAM is inadequate for the use of more than 2 or 3 Apps at the same time. If I try the phone will close one or all without my consent or freeze and then close all without my consent smh. 7. Did I mention it's resistive in the touch screen department? smfh. Other than that it's a really good phone. I would only trade it in for a newer model such as the E7, and that's only if there was no way to fix 2 or 3 of the issues above. On paper the Xperia pro looks pretty good, better than the N97 mini and I might just trade mine in for it but Symbian is something you can't just turn your back on, it's just that comfortable to use. the question is whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

  • I have a nokia N97 mini battery when i switch on standby battery discharged after one hour,but still i like nokia N97.

  • Sony Ericsson Xperia pro is much better and even less expensive than this N97 mini!

  • My N97 mini freeze and crash so often when browsing that it is really unusable, and opera bollt and UC-browser are all really extremly bad on N97 mini! S2 never ever freze or crash! SonyEricsson Experia Pro have a much better hardware-keyboard than N97 mini!

  • horrible. after 3 months it started hanging every time i clicked the touch screen.

  • ave been avin problem to upgrade my phone..can i use firmware software on d phone?

  • Not so like not so bad 50 50

  • this phone's really becomin annoying,cnt update, too slow..think of settling for c7 if not n9.

  • Sooo fed up with this phone. It's SO slow - the graphics take a few seconds to update sometimes. When you're trying to answer a call, it's very annoying. The slide key-lock seems to bounce and it unlocks straight away after locking. Connecting via USB to computer, the first time it will not start charging. So you have to unplug it and plug in again, and then it starts charging. I'm ending my contract early and paying $180 to buy myself out so I can change phones!

  • The battery back up you people told absolutelly wrong.......i think there is some problem with all the Nokia batteries of this kind.....nce i had given this hand set to Nokia care,they repaired it...but no use...they also cheated me......the problem is still existing...wt i have to do

  • v.good

  • good phone

  • it is very good phone. only slide keyboard after some time is bad

  • my drem mobile is n97,,this is latest mobali, ooooohhhhhhh i have no word this mo,,,my girl fried givan mo n97 birthdate givan

  • Not so good phone to have...I've been using this for my after office hour conference call and speaker phone and volume is really bad - even in full volume you will not be able to hear clearly and conversations were not clear. Also frequently hang-up...Too bad that our company invested on this type of unit...

  • Maybe your battery need to reset...than let the phone play music or something till the battery is completely empty and the phone turns off by itself, than plug the wall charger cable, and let it charge during the night, than in morning switch on your phone. If still problem than maybe battery pack need bay new one.

  • I got this phone in May last year..and I must admit, this is 1 of d most horrible phones ever. I dont even feel like listing the number of defects it has, coz ther r many many of them. It gets extremely slow after a few weeks of use (i've used only about 1.5 GB of the 8GB memory), network issues (i own 2 phones with sim cards of same service provider, and on most occasions, N97 doesnt get the network while other phone does), Horrible battery back up (i dont listen much to the music), on some occasions even if ther's a call, the phone doesnt ring, vibrate or light up n Later it shows as missed call. My suggestion, its a total waste of money. Dont go for it.

  • i have been using the mobile almost for a year and half and i was totally contented but recently i am experiencing some difficulties with the battery i.e it lasts very short. Is there anything to be done?

  • the keyboard contain Arabic fonts ?

  • I have used the N97 mini for 2 years now and I can tell you it is an exellant phone. There is nothing I have wanted to do on it that I have not been able to do. I just took a HTC PRO 7 back to the shop for a refund because it was rubbish when the qwerty keypad was opened the menu stayed on its side what is that all about? So untill someone comes up with a qwerty slide phone that fits in your pocket and dose everything from bbciplayer to free satnav to fast browsing (Opra) to updated on the go Email all in a slick little laptop style phone I am going sim only deal and going to get cheep calls/internet on my lovely to use N97 mini

  • Very poor response By service centers If any error occurs in Handset

  • N.97 mini is beter than that of 5800xp m.faster than thta of 5800,coz of low cpu comparing to android or others latest phones its bit slow thts all....................

  • Sorry pal, you don't seem to know much about N97mini...you just seem to run for speed and shutting angry birds! I agree with you that it does not look fast and bla-bla-bla when you first bay from shop...but real symbian users fix this problems later by hacking and modifying the firmware...! We now use the ported nokia Belle browser on N97mini and N5800xm or opera, bollt, UC-browser that blows your android away considering that so called "slow CPU". N97mini is like having more than just laptop on your pocket, it has fine cameras, free GPS, STEREO Speakers buddy and beautiful qwerty keyboard that you android it just does not have at this quality...it's really productive and it work's! I have try my brothers SGII few days, speed and flooding screens looks great, browsing nada...very often crash, and crash when ever is something important to write comments on blogs and when i was dowloading on background so it was annoying, only one from twenty or more attempt to d-load i made...and now you can offer me not one, but two SGII or two apple...i will not give my N97mini for them...

  • If you really think N97 mini is "good" then you have definetly never ever used any Android! N97 mini is one of the worst phones ever with very slow cpu and not enough ram and very unsensitive screen and very bad/slow browser! Nokia make good phone shells/casings but Nokia always have outdated bad hardware inside their phones! N97 mini is also too expensive because today even Galaxy S is less expensive! And if you must have a hardware keyboard then you should buy SonyEricsson Pro, even though that is actually a rather bad option but definetly very much better than N97 mini!

  • lol..those who say phone is bad...do u even own this phone or just blah blah!!..lol i own this phone and i still like the way it handles.and this phone get some problems....but i wanna say...if u know how to use a smartphone ..u can sort it out with ease and no problem at all lol....those who dont own..dont experience the true potential of a cell phone and just google about it and write random thing here just coz they cant buy it..or they dont have it ..and thats the fact

  • Ok lets accept d fact that android is way faster than symbian but lets check which mobile brand usually goes along with 99% of mobile applications that can be downloaded from web? And also think about the availabilty and pricing of the parts...well if ur bill gates or as rich as he is you wouldnt care for that....so its nokia and my n97 still rulezzzz!

  • I live in Trinidad & Tobago (in the Caribbean) and I know for a fact that the firmware update has been out for a while but when ever I "check for updates" it comes up with no new updates. I know Nokia releases these things in waves so some get it before others but this is ridiculous. Is there anyway to download the update to my computer and update manually?

  • i can see that u probably google it too. if you owned the phone you would see that it is one of the best resistive touch screens out. i own it and i know this for a fact. the thing is its inconsistent, because in some situations like using the web or music player it is really gud but then if im playing a third party game i need to press alot harder. its not as good as a capacitive touch and that shouldnt be expected.

  • did u even own this phone or did u just google bad reviews on it. this is wayyy better than sum random china mobile. 5mp camera, 8gb, tv out and Symbian isnt the best but its better than the piece of crap OS u get in China mobiles. Android is the best and its all this phone is missing along with better battery handling a faster cpu and of course a capacitive touch screen. Nokia is great!!!!...

  • the memory in the original N97 is 32 gb not 16 gb...

  • N97 mini is a nice mobile

  • the best i would say very good phone and the problem is that memory should be increased to 16gb like n97 thn it would be better and the phone memory is very bad the only disadvantage

  • very nice mobil but the battery stay only 1 day , why? and talk time less than 2 hours, why?

  • good phone n97mini,normal phone,

  • Friends, the touch screen is not good... It stop working after a few months even if there is no damage... you can check it by searching in google....

  • why it is so bad. Who the ass,dog,pig,made it he might would be world best stupid man. working very slow. never buy nokia always buy sumsung mobile,you can even buy chinees but not nokia.

  • how i will now about nokia 97 mini that its orignal are not?

  • One of my phones in the top ten

  • Really great phone...the perfect one from nokia

  • i bought an android phone, after 5 months i missed my nokia n97 mini so i went back to using it as my primary phone, samsung smartphones running android really excels in the smoothness of the touch user interface but somehow, nokia running symbian perfected the phone and sms functionalities - plus the better quality of photos... so many awesome smartphones are now available in the market, and awesome prices too! but at the end of the day, a phone is a phone you mainly use for calling and texting

  • i have n97 mini...it is really great!!!!!

  • averageee

  • The touch screen is really very extremly bad! If you think this 97 mini is "good" then you definetly have never tried any recent Android, S1 or S2 or...! I have S2... and I decided to play a little with my old N97 mini last night and it feels realy very outdated! Do NOT buy this crap, you can get many better phones for exactly the same or less money, even many newer phones from Nokia are a lot better but still not more expensive if you do not want to upgrade to an Android!

  • i love my mini and had it for 2 years, great phone but i'll be upgrading it to E7...

  • E7 and N97 mini have the same screen-resolution, 640x360! E7 is more than twice as expensive but the Symbians looks almost the same, even though changes are mostly only about changed looks. E7 CPU and gpu and ram is better, but still very far from "good"! E7 is very heavy!

Fully charged battery lasted just one night. Next morning it would be dead!!! After formatting and resetting, a great improvement and everything works well now. With moderate use, battery lasts for at least four days and connectivity has improved. What a relief !!!

  • i've been using this phone for a week and it is amazing to see how good the video and photo quality are but i'm having problem with the gprs

  • had this phone since december 2009, tbh best phone i upgraded too, can use camara and take video while talking on it, apps r slow now 4 a 2 yr old phone lol and even tho the lock key has broke its a funky little worker... be hard to beat!!

  • which is better between n97 mini n c6

  • I've been using this device for over a year now and it has served me well. I've gotten my moneys worth and more out of this little guy and its still pumping blood through it's veins. I've got over 1000 tunes on the mem card. I have it paired with the SYNC feature in my car and rock for hours and hours without ever having to fumble for a fresh CD. There may be alot of better phones with better specs and better features, but I can't think of any that would be as functional as this one is and has been for me.

  • My N97 mini also gives the same message as your phone after the update .. I'm sorry that I updated the phone, more satisfied with the old update. I'm afraid we must live with the problem. mub

  • I am using N97 mini since last march 2010. I have updated the OS version to 30.0.004. Since last 2-3 months I am facing a serious problem. When i browse the internet through phone browser and/or opera mobile my phone often gives me a message "memory full stop some application" although only the phones browser or opera mobile browser is working and after some time the phone hangs and then the only option is to switch it off and then on. The phone memory is 192 mb free and mass memory is 2.3 gb free.Can any1 solve this problem.

  • Hello! I've been using my N97 mini since last year. Was thinking of changing it soon already. Although, it still rocks, and I really love it. But after times of dropping my phone, its starting to become weird. Eg : The charging icon will starts to "charge" itself without any cable. And the charging light at the side, will also be on. But I can say that mine is quite durable. Since, I'm a careless user of electronics! But for sms-ing, camera etc, it is still really good! So N97 mini is really a good phone (: I want to buy this exact phone again but, I couldn't find it .. So I'm kind of in a dilemma of choosing a new phone or keep this N97 mini.

  • pls were can i grt it 2 buy

  • i want to know price of his handset:::pls tell me fast i wnt to buy this one :::::

  • Since last 1 Year i used N97 Mini its very usefull device. in a day 5 to 6 times its hang. when i ask this to Service center staff they alws say need update softwear i did tht also 3 times but still same problem. so i thng if Nokia solve this problem its awesome Handset if its comes in Anodrid OS its Dimond....

  • You can get it from Dubai for 900 AED. in usd is 246$$$

  • I have just run into a problem: Cannot make any outgoing call (Not Allowed) and all incoming call go directly to voicemail - any ideas I can try - Thanks

  • Its been a year since Im using this N97 mini. And I didnt have any problem as such. Since the past 1 month, Im having problem with my call register. It doesnt show the missed call and recieved call entries and shows only the dialled calls list when I press the green call attend button. The missed call symbol in the top of the call register menu, doesnt respond to the touch and that is the problem with seeing the call register. Another problem is that the phonebook doesnt show the contact details and phone number. I will be happy to know any remedy for this, since I find it very difficult to access the missed call entries and call back those who called.

  • the keeps on draining the battery..what do u suggest i do

  • if i put 16 GB of memory card will mobile will be hang or what ?

  • Hey which one is better Nokia N97 mini Or Nokia C5-03?

  • I've had my N97 mini for almost year now, and so far not having any problems with it aside of having occational lagging/ hang. I do almost all the tricks that this phone is capable of. I root it, install all the possible apps that suit it's potential, and so far it is pure awesomness. When i install the spb mobile shell about 5 months ago, it is not yet officially out, you need to crack it before installing. I also install N-desk and with only these 2 apps, your phone will transform into a different device. It runs very smooth, fast and as responsive as a capacitive touchscreen. Then i incorporate the HTC modification to it, so as of now, it looks like a combination of IOS, Android and windows OS. Really Love my N97 mini! Cheers!

  • how cost

  • how much is this?

  • Maybe u should learn more about this unit so ull be satisfied.

  • Maybe its bugging 2 u coz u really don't know how 2 use it!

  • Hi Guys, would you pls tell me if mini nokia should have microSD into its package. thanks

  • n97 mini is much better and lovely phone from :Umesh

  • The N97 mini is definitely better than the XpressMusic 5800.

  • n97 mini better than 5800.. try this 1 n u will know...

  • wat is a boost pack ?

  • hey friends .. i am using n97 mini .. it's awesome phone i never used like this.. really it's excellent working and good performance.. i'll suggest you all only take n97 mini or go for iphone4

  • n97 mini is much better

  • Hey which one is beter Nokia N97 mini Or Nokia 5800?

  • I'm sorry to say but Nokia has gone down the drain lately. I used to have the 6310 that was a reliable mofo! Then N95 was pretty good too but *STAY AWAY FROM THIS PHONE N97 Mini* It is buggy even with all the updates that they've released (and when I say buggy I MEAN it: it would reboot randomly even after a full clean reset, if it didn't like a certain theme it would freeze, in fact it would freeze with many downloaded applications, some applications even disappeared from all the menu screens after a reboot), it's also very laggy, by about a second, it can get quite annoying especially if you think u didnt press the screen properly, u press it again, but it ends up pressing options on the next screen, oh and then the battery died within its first year. I must admit, the keyboard is my favorite part of this phone, it looks good too, but software wise, OS is garbage. Stay away from the N8 too, it has most of the same soft problems as the N97 even though its supposed to be a revamped symbian^3.... what a bunch of BS. Nokia, I used to be a loyal fan for your solid OS back in the day but my next phone will probably be a droid.

  • R U Joking, It is Heavy, Slow , Low Resolution ,,,,,,, etc.

  • I just got the phone...its been 6 days and I love the device...at 1st I was sceptical due to all the negative post about it but now that I have it I coudn't be happier :)...the 1st day it did hit up alot but once it died and I gave it a full charge I haven't had the problem again...I'm in Trinidad and I paid TT$3,000 for it...A little lagging here and there but she works like a charm...If you want it get it bcuz you wont regret it...I just wish it had came with a TV-Out cable and maybe a silicon housing or carrying case...I'm looking 4ward to going home and playing with it lol :)...I'm so happy I didn't settle for the C6 or C7 XD...If you can't afford the E7 then this is the phone for you!!!!!...

  • It is the best phone i have ever seen in my life. It is better than n8, e7, lg optimus, sony experia and samsung galaxy tab as it has high internal memory and cost less than any cell with any specifications.

  • plz tell me N97 set price__

  • Try the Roaming Guard program (download from the OVI store). I use it on my N95 and it is really good at stopping unwanted data connections.

  • nokia n97 is best..i have dis phone that y i m telling..:)

  • my n97 mini is going to heat what can i do

  • the phone is good but when using internet games videos the phone is going to heat an beattry life is go down.

  • tell me which one is better...N 97 mini or E5

  • You pres the red cancel button few seconds and the popup will show asking if you want to disconnect gprs data connection, but you have to check for wot software is trying to connect automatically and delete it or check for it's settings to not connect automatically on internet, it can be Fring, foursquare or Facebook...and if you have any active widgets on front screen that means is launched widgets and they are suppose to update activities throw internet connection, so remove them if they bother you,bcz there is always alternative solution to specific chat network.

  • it's so cool but i guess c7 might be cool as well..

  • how to stope paketdata all the time it cotnected to paket data and spending money all the time plz any advice

  • this phone is cool.. have been using this phone since past one year and haven't faced any severe problem.. hanging occassionally is something which one can cope up with.. so its worth spending so many bucks.. :-) :-)

  • This phone is very cool or fantastic. Screen pictures is very nice and i still using this phone 1 year ago...

  • hey can anyone tell me which is the best nokia n97mini or nokia c6-01....please tell me

  • What is that package called which you installed?

  • adding to this, the phone cam has a better image, macro mode was really good. web browsing also went up since it doesn't heat up that much anymore and was able to do multiple window browsing with opera browser. kinetic scroll has a faster response and memory was boosted as well.. loving it much :)

  • I had mine now for almost half a year now. at first it was really disappointing.. the touch response is laggy and shuts itself down most of the time.. battery problems as well, heats up easily when I use an app or just charges it, drains quickly too lol.. but I found a boost pack for it, eversince my phone has been performing better than ever and no more issues as mentioned above and I have liked it so much now.. :)

  • i regret buying it, i thought it was for me, but it wasn't, it feels good in the hand, but resistive for web browsing and games is very good. but yes,the keyboard is great although i hated iphone before i think i'm going to buy one... or try a blackberry before Because i can't get the japanese sharp/docomo flip phones i want -_-

  • N97 or E72?????which 1 is better

  • Ok sinead, I'll wait for that... Hey but wait, you bought an n97 mini, you could have replaced your Nokia X6 with a C7...

  • How do I install a previous software version on my nokia n97 mini Please help!!

  • Well,it's gr8 fone wid amazng style,features,and specially camera quality.

  • Bad phone! naughty naughty! dropping calls and hanging up in the middle of a conversation is considered "rude". If the phone were human it's sure to win the "Rudest of All" prize at the global level. Adam

  • I have had the mini for almost a year now, lots of problems with hanging, getting hot while talking, unpredictable restarts. I am trying to get rid of it a soon as possible. Not for every day usage.

  • wel i for one am extremely dissapointed...the n97 mini is reali not different from the original n97 as ive experienced both, the mini is slow, hangs nd when sum1 is callinfg you its crap to answer if its tilting sideways...not even ganna talk about the rendom restarts...

  • whats the main diff btw the FW v10 and dat of V12 of this phone.

  • it's good ,but sometimes it restarted automatically and it hanged a lot.

  • Maybe you have whatsapp installed, this will cause your mobile to be online always, at least if its a nokia

  • it's sad to read a lot of phone bashing in here, but in a way, they're amusing i'm a nokia n97 mini user, for over a year, so far I find the phone still a delight to use before I use a new phone, I always read the "manual" or "user guide" that comes with it, through this, I can make use of all the good features, avoid glitches, and enjoy my money's worth

  • why nokia n97 mini use internet always????i do to block it with setting but it always connect to internet.my credit every 2 day will zero.what happen?????

  • Go into Menu>Settings>Connectivity>USB>USB-C­onnection-Mode and click on Mass-Storage. Now use the cable to connect ur laptop to the phone. It'll start charging automatically if u have Windows XP and above on ur laptop.

  • Just use your micro USB connector from phone to laptop it automatically charge when your phone is connect.

  • Just use your micro USB connector from phone to laptop it automatically charge when your phone is connect.

  • this phone is legand i like my n97 mini and interest it too

  • mind blowing performance of this phone in 3G network . gr8 phone by nokia...

  • Some guys is complaining about battery life on this phone, well is not that best maybe, but for the work you do in it all day around, music, web, chat and calls, is good enough, but you must learn how to use it, and wot apps and how to shot them down if you don't use permanently. If you are using Laptop USB to charge your N97mini, no NOT expect long battery life...! It is not the same as charging from laptop as it is from wall-charger, bcz the laptop USB gives about 100.mA power, while the wall-charger is 1200.mA or (twelve-hundred)mA power.

  • formate by using *#7370#. it will free up your mamory and ram so work nicely.

  • This phone looks gr8, & when they work they are fantastic, but sadly very unreliable. We have 3, all 3 started to pack up within 2-3 months. 2 of them have been in to be fixed 3 times the high usuage one has been in 7 (yes 7 times). They freeze, you cant hang up, you cant answer, internet automatically comes on, cant turn off have to remove the battery to get them to come back on. I could go on with the amount of problems. I have 5 freinds also with the N97 mini who all have the same on going problems. Our phones are not even 1 year old & the people who we got them from are now replacing them as they have agreed this model isnt any good.

  • have software issues!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • my mini97 only approves the charger I first used to charge her... the charger with which she came with is of no use... how come she choose my old charger???

  • Had several issues with my N97 mini including touch screen unresponsiveness and no voice commands but after a hard reset its working fine. After the hair pulling experience, when I next buy a phone I think I will steer clear of Nokia otherwise I will get bald soon!

  • Use Format Factory

  • Use Format Factory

  • Hi everyone i'm using nokia n97 mini too there are some problem with my phone like all of you but i'm love this phone when i'm using it it make me feel good

  • battery drains out real quick.. and it takes a lot of time to recharge... is it the mini97's or the battery's problem? or is it just me?

  • hey not all of us are careless when it comes to phones.n97 is the best cell ever.you just need to be cautios of your mobile

  • I have had nothing but problems with this phone. Would not recomend to anyone.

  • n97 minis are trouble.... they have caused nothing but trouble since we got them.... very unhappy bout the service..

  • which is better: N82, N97 or N97mini?

  • If you have 2 antivirus programs running at the same time, it will be slow and also the RAM will be full, so there is really no chance to run new applications. Getting viruses to your phone is so unlikely to happen, that antivirus programs really are no use.

  • How to do that? can u pls explain in detail, i love my n97 very much, bu battery life is a real concern for me, thanks in advance. Regards Prasad

  • i love my mini and i've been using it for a year but in this day and age i can honestly say dont buy this! better just wait for new s^3 phones with the similar size as the mini since there will probably be some if you have the mini though, let me just say that the phone theme matters. some themes make my phone slow so if your phone seems slow try changing the theme to see if it will make your phone faster. it worked for me..

  • Phone is absolutely horrible!!! I made a big mistake choosing it!!! Pls do not buy it and dont listen to any1 u wont c the problem in a day u need at least a weeks of usage, absolutely terrible TERRIBLE!!! Unfortunately 4 Nokia I am never ever never buying their products until they move away from Symbian completely!!! DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!

  • Nokia n97mini was really bad,nothing new features,touch screen was very very slow,so dont buy this phone

  • If your phone is chinese copy made, then possibly no wi-fi, otherwise try "settings/phone/security/ and fully reset the phone option and the security code is 12345 then you will have the chance to select the right country location.

  • Dear friend I want to share my experiance with you all that www.adsindex.net Free & Effective Online Advertising with adsindex Register .... Business News continually updated from thousands of sources around the net, Specially in mobile sector there is alot of real sellers and buyers over there

  • Yesterday i got my n97mini back from service, they changed complet screen and screen holder, now is working good, i will have to restore the software, but i will put a good hacked CFW on it first.

  • the phone is really good.but it lack a fm transmitter and a tv receiver. I think it's 'QWERTY' keypad is better than nokia n97.

  • at the time of charging mobile or seeing video the mobile is getting too heat..

  • Any one crying about its battery problem, just put the back light level to minimum or 25%, and display duration to less than 25min. You will surely get noticeable extension in your battery life...

  • I live in South Africa and have found the telephone reception to be absolutely terrible. My cell has been in 3 times to no avail. Got a loan (old) htc s710 and the reception is perfect BUT nothing can beat the qwerty keyboard and everything else that makes this cell special. Yes I also find it hangs and battery life is short, has anyone else experienced bad reception with this cell?

  • m using it since 6 months and i found it to be the worst phone i have ever bought, too much hang problem, so slow, battery problem,very much bulky too. i personally n strongally do not recommend this phone. sony ericsson xperia x 10 mini pro is far a better phone than this.

  • i owning this n97mini for the last 6months the main drawback is poor battery life. I dont know why nokia phones have these problems on all n-sereies ranges,previously i was owning n95 has the same issue. NOKIA TAKE CARE About the battery issue.

  • why is my nokia n97mini always hot? and again de battery is not lasting? it always connects to the internet without me accessing it and i don't like it i really like the phone but the fuck ups listed above is freaking me ouyt

  • I have my n97 mini from 5 months it's better than 5800 good camera,good web browser,good keybad,good designe,nice memory and sound,but the worst battary i v ever seen,i see that nokia dont read our opinions because if nokia does that she l answer our request for battary problem as i see it s the famus problem n this devise ,i think nokia can make good battary for us,i used to go out with my charger in my poket,another thing we need new firmware to update our phone the last one was 12.0.110

  • here are some tips to avoid hanging problems: -after powering on give the phone a minute or two to load all startup programs - avoid multitasking two or more apps that eat up a lot of ram, if possible close open apps that you are no longer using and that you are not aware it's running, long press the menu button to see all running apps for battery life, read the user manual on how not to fast drain it 14 mos. w/my n97 mini, no major problems

  • My n97 mini is a peice of shit its slow always low battery and stops

  • i m using n97 mini for 2 months and 5800 for 1 year.....i found n97 is the better fone than 5800 in all cases exept its weight....oh lord..it has damn weight the battery is too bad in both cases...cmmon nokia...you r taking so much money and giving low grade battery samsung galaxy and wave is not good as nokia...but there battery life awesome....doubled to nokia

  • UR saying total wrong, N97 is marvelous iused last one year vert nice phone

  • sometimes it happens to me also, every time i switch on my phone it sometimes wont respond at all and its freaking annoying...

  • well i got mine for hmm 7 months now, (i am writing this comment using its perfect qwerty keys), thew only negative thnk about MY phone is the battery :( it lasts only from the morning until night. But otherwise its awesome

  • Worst phone i ever had. The touch screen is not responsive, most of the time you need to restart it several times to get it working. loading of applications not that fast. qwerty sometimes not working as well. well it looks good and classy, yet its performance is bad. gelo supot! haha.

  • The qwerty-keyboard is almost perfect on N97 mini!

  • very nice phone but mine,battery life is very short even on standby less than twelve hours what could be the problem?

  • Super.....

  • not a good phone, the battery life is very poor and also hangs & shuts down on it's own

  • N-desk really makes the phone much better. But Bolt is still too slow, I can visit 10 webpages with stock Android browser on my Galaxy S during the time Bolt load its first page. Opera Mobile is faster than Bolt, but still very much slower than would be needed for acceptable browsing, and the Nokia stock browser totally suck. N97 mini is still to expensive, it cost almost as much as HTC Desire Z i Sweden. If you want an even better qwerty than the good one on N97 mini, but do not want any o the problems with that comes with N97 mini, slow cpu and slow gpu and low ram, then it is better to wait 1 month and then buy Sony Ericsson Pro.

  • A new UI experience after installing N-Desk, Swype input, beautiful Vivid theme, faster and improved Bolt browser, I'm in love with my Nokia N97 mini again!

  • pls i need ur help, do u guys watch free mobile tv or youtube videos on ur phone?

  • go get urs its a better sweet handling phone, no fault in dis phone like u guys usually say

  • I want the mini so bad... but, most of the comments are bad, i really don't know what to do.. should i buy it? and see if i'm lucky enough so that it'll work properly? the keyboard is so comfortable.

  • Nokia is far behind in the race of touch smartphones. And they knew why, because symbian s60v5 was a total failure and s^3 just couldn't compete against android. That's why Nokia got rid of symbian and are now looking forward to win7. But of late both Nokia and winmo are in the same boat. Both are struggling.

  • The build quality of this phone can't be faulted. The software, however has been a constant problem with this phone which crashes often.

  • take it back to thev shop

  • I was a big fan of nokia but after i bought n97mini my opinion has changed..its a bad phone..first its speaker wasnt working properly..i gave it to the service center..they fixed it..got back my phone after only 2 weeks..now the problem is i cant open my phone..the battery dies very fast..they said they cant upgrade its software..and that they will replace it with a new phone..but still..i'm not happy with the phone..sorry!

  • Nokia c6

  • the software leavse alot 2 b desired, the battery doesnt last a day even whn not used excessively, its also relatively slow, 4 its price range its delivered way too little, im generally dissapointed

  • its a very good mobile phone and its feature are very good, don't use it rougly

  • its an awsome phone. Its just a bit slow. I bought it at 20000 but now its new price is just 16000 and i dont think resale value will be more than 12000.but well it is atough competetor with any other phone because of its 3g, full qwerty slide keyboard, 5mp camera etc. I wish the camera were equipped with face recognition or just geo tagging. The draw back of this phone is that it does not support multi touch input which nowadays most phone have. I have typed this comment just through my phone. So it's rocking keyboard is just rockingggg.

  • May be you need to do a touch screen calibration. Go to settings>Phone>Touch Input>Touch Screen Calibration(last in the menu). Follow the instruction there. It will hopefully solve your problem.

  • I think you shall calibrate the screen on your phone settings,but be sure you touch in the center of each circle.

  • Does it support NGAGE?

  • what should i do with my n97 mini touch screen???its not working in a way i like...example: im pressing the no.1 but it came up to be no.4...what should i do???is their a way to fix it...please help me!!!

  • Don't worry, it's not apple to explode! You must be watching online TV or youtube a lot!

  • The battery of N97 mini is the worst I have ever seen in any mobile. The specifications are: Standard battery, Li-Ion 1200 mAh (BL-4D) Stand-by Up to 320 h (2G) / 310 h (3G) Talk time Up to 7 h 10 min (2G) / Up to 6 h (3G) Music play Up to 32 h But this not true in reality�the battery exhausts in 4 hrs. The company is befooling the customers, I have been using this set for 05 months now and the problems are erupting daily. The phone hangs, switch off while working, etc. The RAM memory gets consumed and every month you have to reset the phone to erase the unnecessary memory or the phone will not work. THIS IS NOKIA!

  • Close apps that you are not using but running in the background. Long press the Home button key to display all open and running apps. To close them, long press the icon then select Exit.

  • im planning to buy phone but which 1 is better,x6 or n97?, im reading opinions here and both phones are having negative and positive comments,well,regardless of that,which 1 is better?please tell me.. thanks!!

  • Well, nothing is perfect, everything has its weaknesses. im planning to buy phone but which 1 is better,x6 or n97?, im reading opinions here and both phones are having negative and positive comments,well,regardless of that,which 1 is better?please tell me.. thanks!!

  • use it less

  • My n97 mini gets hot when am using it as if it wants to boil, pls wat can i do?

  • Complete waste of money, will never buy a Nokia again.

  • Hi according to me if you are a schol going student than you can opt for any other phone however if you still wish to purchase that handset than you can do that,after purchasing this one there is no need to purchase any other handset atleast for 5 yrs.

  • dis fone is die hard.... It rocks!

  • e72

  • Which Firmware do you already have on your phone? If you don't know how to check that, you can enter this code on your phone dial-pad: *#0000#, if you happen to have Wi-Fi near by check options/Check for updates, than connect to free wi-fi and do not switch of the phone, let the phone do updating, the phone will restart itself. If you have PC, connect your phone with USB cable and launch the Nokia Software Updater, if there is newer update than yours, you will see it, if yes than update it, and do not disconnect your phone till you get message "the phone is now Updated and ready to use", but before all this, you have to do a backup of your phone if you have anything important on it.

  • this phone rocks, n97 is the best there will ever be! forget about the 5mp cam. and enjoy it.....

  • I have bad expierence with n97mini.bad camera clearity,touch is like a third class phone,sound quility is decent,difficult to hack.shame on u nokia for buìlt this type of phone.this phone freak me a lot.my adviced to everyone don't buy this phone.total waste of money.

  • Everything is possible, but the question is... how to do that!?:-/ This phone is quiet good as it is, question is... who are willing to try such experiment, and if it fails.. chances are mostly to get a brick toy instead!:-( Much as we have heard from nokia, someday we may get one update or advanced update something they mention with QT GUI... but as an old nokia user, and i know the nokia company politics, if they do such update... the question is... who will bay then the new phone models that they are anxious to make popular with high price and to sell lot of them a real fortune, to achieve highest score from them all, and if they could do at least to sell to all nokia owners one more phone, it mean to them so much, and all that in our expenses... and now i hope you understand the point, why would they give us so much for free, instead emotionalizing us to bay one other nokia phone... specially plastic made one, so we can use only for few month... should you want to know more about our expectations as costumers and the company expectations...lol.

  • anyone has an idea how to update the change this into symbian ^^3 like the C7 and N8

  • If you new on this phone and not that really techie then don't mess with the F/W of the phone. Quick trip to a shop than can do the update for you is an option.

  • @ n97 ....just restore or format yor phone ...problem would be fix by dat...

  • This phone is superb there is no word to say about nokia n97mini.nokia phones are the best in the world.hatsoff nokia plz release the android phones and beat all other products

  • i liked this phone but i have a problem with adobe reader. has anybody solved this problem ?

  • i am very happy.to brought nokia n97mini..it is very good feature and looking so cute

  • If you don't play to much games on the phone, than go for this phone N97mini, it's good choice.

  • Yes,Wave looks good,works pretty well and it is amazing phone BUT bada is so young and app store so small yet. For example Spotify is not going to support Bada platform,MSN messenger doesnt work also :/

  • i replaced my N82 with this n97 mini swapped with my fren., but i cant change the display for favorite contacts when i activate the fave contacts in screen content.. it show the old list of fave contact and i cant view nor edit them.. =(

  • my comment wasn't posted before. Please.. advice me. 5800 , mini, or vivaz pro? It's seems that 5800 have less problems, but mini has better cam,qwerty and it's design its better. But vivaz pro has hd recording, although i've seen videos and it's so slow. also , the mini and the samsung wave cost the same here in argentina. i like resistive touch screen, and handwriting, and that i can use my nails, and its more difficult to touch something by accident (i hope is not just that i'm stupid, but that someone else had this problem with capacitive). that's why i'm unsure about wave. i want a reliable phone, not only that it looks good. I don't know what to do. Is really the mini so bad??

  • Hi! My n86 got wet and it doesnt work anymore. I was wondering if n97 mini is still good phone nowdays?Or is it old technology. I liked n86 alot..is n97 then less better than n86? Local store made an good offer about n97 mini Navigation & Comes with Music (230e)

  • damn i love this phone

  • Go enter some nokia community forum on internet, and you'll find all you want! Dailymobile or mobiles mania ect!

  • Hi, can anyone tell me where to find an unlock code for adobe reader that comes installed on this phone? Nokia have put in just a trial version... Stupid, since it came as a free program on older nokia devices... Any suggestions? Thx

  • it is a smart phone to have got a nyce

  • totally agree with u. save me time for typing it :-)

  • I think your n97 mini has some problem. The battery life is actually very good comparing to other smart phone. it can last 2 full day with the wifi and edge turn off. I only agree with you the N97 is too slow to act on any software. it is so under power and can't work skype well, (though you can install it on your phone.) not worth the wording of "smart" it just a very function-able and good camera phone.

  • Jan 24, 2010 - the date I purchased my Nokia N97 mini. That was exactly a year ago yesterday. No major problems. I have learned tips and tricks how not to overwork the battery. Buy a spare one for heavy usage like going online thru wifi for hours. Touch sensitivity is ok. Photo taken with the camera are worthy for facebook uploading. Sound quality is great using headsets, great travel companion. Mobile internet over GPRS/EDGE is fast. Other smartphones fail to connect when packet data broadcast is a little weak. The presence of physical qwerty keyboard provides option for fast typing during IM and FB chats. I can update my Blogger and Wordpress blogs right on my phone! Read news, research online, info access anytime, anywhere.

  • guys can u plz tell me how to update the firmware of N97 MINI... i m new to this mb n wana update it....

  • Bad to tell that Nokia Discontinued the production of N97 Mini.Which was good phone till now.

  • Your security code shall be: 1 2 3 4 5, if you have not changed anything already.

  • hey friend .. i have forgot my security code of my n97 mini .. can you guys suggest me some help .. thanks

  • Dear nokia, thanks for relentlessly manufacturering good looking phones e.g NOKIA N97 mini. However its not all about beauity, i wish u would consider performance as vital. I bought this phone 3 weeks ago and guess what i found out immediately, 1. TOUCH EXPERIENCE, This is the worst ever, pon keeps hanging or responds to non-requested commands,non-sensitive touch screen. 2. BATTERY LIFE, The worst ever, as if the phone wasnt meant to run on battery back up. u have to charge all the time, and recently my A/C power blew up even without power cause. left with USB charging only.without p.c cant charge. 3. WEIGHT AS A MOBLIE DEVICE This phone is too heavy to carry. As if nokia had learnt nothing about N97 the big version, shd have trimed down the weight.. 4. SPEED AND STABILITY, The speed of the device is devasting, will switch off automatically even if u havent requested phone to do so. 5. PRICE, N97 mini costs aliitle more expensive than usual,u may be mistaken that u are paying for such an execellent device, taking it home and u are disappointed by its general poor perforamance. THE GOOD OF N97 min. Here i will just mention briefly, 5 megapixel camera brings relatively good picture qaulity, phone has shinny looks, not that killer as N8 but its ok. CONCLUSION. Its not that i hate nokia, but this phone just doesnt wok for me. i tried a couple of nokia brands but i am ever disappointed. I am also opting to try out on other brands like BLACKBERRY, HTC, SONY ERICSSON, etc.

  • Dear All, Nokia N97 Mini is a fantastic mobile to be used in the perfet way. If any of your documents are opened and if they are not closed properly then the battery goes away quick. Hence if it is used on the right way I think according to me using it for the past one year nearly i have never faced any problem in this mobile. I think this partcular mobile is supposed to be called as Mini Laptop. Bu this mobile could be operted by touch screen instead of the keyboard. Only draw back to this mobile is sound clarity should be little more high when it is used for loudspeaker, other wise fabulous phone.

  • this phone is the big falior from nokia..although nokia is known a falior company..my samsung wave is best in all department....and even less prise than this shit...nokia is just laggy baggy shity company..

  • It always has problems!

  • very bad battery backup. last only for 3/4 hrs in 2g. not interested in nokia any more.

  • touch and speaker quality is not that gud

  • Bought the N97 Mini 9 months ago after a Samsung S8300 disaster. The Samsung was so bad for text entry, I thought a phone with a keyboard was the solution. It seems it was the right call and this is actually one of the good things about the phone: 1) I have chubby fingers and even for me, the keyboard is a treat. Holding it with two hands and using the thumbs, you can type very fast and accurate. No need to use T9 or whatever auto-correct feature. 2) The charge goes for 4 days at normal usage. I don't do heavy surfing, mind you. Mainly 30 minutes of talk + listening to MP3's mornings and evenings during commuting. 3) The GPS and maps work great. Seriously! After a cold start, it takes about two minutes to locate your position and after that, turn-by-turn + speed camera warning + speed exceeded warnings work great. Well done Nokia! As for the downsides: 1) This is not a touch screen, whatever Nokia claims. It is a "push" screen. If you exclude the swipes (left-right, up-down), the only touch action you do is pressing rather insensitive buttons. The zoom in any application is a challenge for the user as well as the phone. 2) The phone is SLOW. Portrait to landscape takes about 2 seconds, the first time you do it. The second time, it takes about a second. I guess the program is loaded into memory or something like that so next time you perform the action, it is loaded faster. During photo browsing, when you zoom in, sometimes the phone does not update the photo with necessary details. Regardless of what you do, the picture stays pixeleted all the time. If you change the picture, look at couple of other pictures and come back again, it is most likely that the zoom will work properly now. 3) The screen is too small and has insufficient resolution to allow proper internet browsing. The browser of Nokia is a joke! A bad one at that... The only reasonable browser I could find was Opera Mobile. Even Opera Mini has issues with N97 Mini + Symbian. 4) And finally, the S6 V5 is simply horrible among modern phones (iPhone, Desire HD, Galaxy S etc.) Nokia should be ashamed to allow the name Symbian to propagate to 2011. That platform was designed for non-touch phones Nokia. Stop patching it up and calling it a modern interface. Drop it, no one believes you!

  • I didn't have the mini but the full one... the quality of the phone is terrible, it only lasts 6 months and that's not a one off as I had a replacement after the first was "beyond ecconomic repair" through the number of faults on its third time back! The second one has gone the same way, so much so, I had my network cancel my 24 month air time contract 11 months early! The phone sometimes even made it appear it was charging up "remotely" I mean the batter y charge up indicator came on when it wasn't even connected! The phone is short of ram which cause memory issues all the time and the phone reboots itself at will. I can't wait for my HTC Desire HD to arrive on Monday!

  • On Jan 24, 2011, I will be celebrating the first year anniversary of my Nokia N97 mini. One year of satisfactory performance from a phone - beautiful photos for my FB real time uploading using Pixelpipe and Share Online apps, fast mobile web browsing over GPRS/EDGE using Bolt browser, very nice sound quality during music listening, and many more! What can I ask for?

  • worst phone ever made just got it back from repair and its worse, nokia i think this is my last phone from you im switching to blackberry after i get rid of this rubbish

  • yes you can take pics with the front camera nd the phone is juzt like a machine to me, coz I hv been using it for the pass 1year now nd there is no problems plz...

  • My brother bought the N97 mini today. Nokia, let me tell You somethng... This phone is better than people says and think... This handset is really great!!! I am surprised and pleased...

  • Internet Explorer? Why, what a revelation! After 5 months of very satisfied use, I have not found IE on my Mini. Would you care to point out where it is installed? And BTW, there are no Mozilla clients on S60 5th. None that actually work, anyway. Sometimes, blatant fabricated stories are easy to spot. As we call it around here, it's all OA... Short for "over-acting".

  • one word to describe the phone FAIL

  • yes

  • This nokia does not have Mozilla or Internet Explorer, so don't lie about this phone, because it seem you never had in your hand this phone the way you are commenting!

  • DISSAPPOINTMENT! I just don't know what to start with. I've had this magic for almost half a year and... - The touch screen... disasterous. Reacts from the second third touch. - System... It is just slow. Image processing 5 sec. Even menu cannot scroll smoothly... - It just freezes...sometimes forever. Or just switches off itself. Even music player is above its capabilities! Sometimes it is a challenge to answer the phone as it does not react. - Interface! My favorite one! Before I switched off an automatic screen rotation I could spend minutes switching off my alarm clock. The problem comes partially because of the previous item. Internet Explorer is something amazing. It is just a challenge to switch to another window or change a webpage! People say installing Mozilla helps. One good thing about this phone is navigator! The only one. I could try to update software or dance Rumba around this gadget. But...My colleagues have the same phone as it was distributed as a corporate phone and everyone got happy only for the first week of the use... I do not recommend this disasterous device!
