Nokia N97 mini (Unlocked)

The Nokia N97 mini is an improvement over the original N97, and the free Ovi Maps GPS app rocks. But there's still not enough here to pull U.S. buyers away from other smart devices.

 

Open

The N97 mini's QWERTY keyboard is a pain to get out. But once you do so, you've got yourself a nifty little mini-laptop, thanks to the tilt mechanism. 

Back

The back panel features a 5-megapixel camera sensor with a Carl Zeiss lens, and a surprisingly powerful dual-LED flash. 

Front

The Nokia N97 mini is a small but solid improvement over the original N97, and now looks sleek enough to take on an Android phone. 

Side

The right side contains a camera shortcut button and a volume rocker switch. 

Colors

The N97 mini (which comes in three colors) runs Symbian Series 60 5th Edition; it's looking more and more dated, though that's mainly because Nokia is trying too hard to turn it into a touch screen OS.
