A brand-new smartphone in the Nokia N-series will be coming out in January '09, the Nokia N97, and already all the buzz is whether this will be the iPhone Killer that's been prophesied for so long. Here is a heads-up on how the two gadgets accumulate.™On the face of it, the Nokia N97 looks more like the iPhone than any other Nokia to date. It's got the slender candybar shape (more slender than the iPhone's, in truth) the minimalist buttons (2 instead of one) and the 3.5" touchscreen inhabiting the bulk of the face. In the hand, you pertain to realize that, while slimmer, the N97 is also thicker and much heavier than the iPhone.
While possessing the exact same size touchscreen as the iPhone, the N97's screen resolution puts the iPhone's to embarassment, with 16:9 true widescreen (640 x 360 pixels) to the iPhone's 3:2 (320 x 480). So for multimedia and video playback, video gaming, and photo managing, the N97 comes out well on top of the iPhone.
And whereas both the iPhone and the N97 support most audio and video formats, the N97 has actually the included benefit of supporting Flash Lite, Flash Video and Windows Media 9. This Flash assistance is not to be undervalued, as it will permit N97 users to render web pages a lot more completely than the iPhone 3G is currently able. The iPhone also does not have browser-based Java assistance; the N97 may or may not, it is still uncertain.
The digital electronic camera on the Nokia N97 is likewise far exceptional to the iPhone's (and to those of most other tin công nghệ smart devices presently on the market) with 5-megapixels, Carl Zeiss optics, an LED flash, and DVD-quality video recording with integrated video lighting. The iPhone still has that weak 2-megapixel relic with neither an integrated flash nor manual focus.
The N97 likewise beats the iPhone in memory - both in the way of onboard storage (32 GB vs. 8 GB or 16 GB) and expandable memory (up to the 16 GB additional vs. none at all).
The most visible distinction between the N97 and the iPhone is that the Nokia has a slideout QWERTY keyboard in addition to its Apple-comparable touchscreen keypad.
Both the iPhone and the Nokia N97 have integrated GPSs (the iPhone's consisting of 3rd party geo-location apps and GoogleMaps, the N97's consisting of an electronic compass and NokiaMaps). Both have HSDPA, Bluetooth, and WiFi connectivity.
No one can anticipate, however, that the Nokia shop will ever be able to provide N97 users the variety and range of smartphone apps that the iTunes App Store offer iPhone users.
Rates have yet to be released, particularly in US dollars, it appears clear at least that the Nokia N97, with all its advantages over the iPhone, will also cost more to buy than the iPhone.
