A brand-new mobile phone in the Nokia N-series will be coming out in January '09, the Nokia N97, and currently all the buzz is whether or not this will be the iPhone Killer that's been prophesied for so long. Here is a heads-up on how the 2 devices stack up.™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 slim than the iPhone's, in reality) the minimalist buttons (2 rather of one) and the 3.5" touchscreen occupying the bulk of the face. In the hand, you pertain to understand that, while slimmer, the N97 is also thicker and much heavier than the iPhone.
While having the very same size touchscreen as the iPhone, the N97's screen resolution puts the iPhone's to shame, with 16:9 true widescreen (640 bao cong nghe thong tin x 360 pixels) to the iPhone's 3:2 (320 x 480). So for multimedia and video playback, video gaming, and photo handling, the N97 comes out well on top of the iPhone.
And whereas both the iPhone and the N97 assistance most audio and video formats, the N97 has the added benefit of supporting Flash Lite, Flash Video and Windows Media 9. This Flash support is not to be undervalued, as it will enable N97 users to render websites a lot better than the iPhone 3G is currently able. The iPhone likewise lacks browser-based Java support; the N97 might or may not, it is still unclear.
The digital cam on the Nokia N97 is also far exceptional to the iPhone's (and to those of most other smartphones presently on the marketplace) with 5-megapixels, Carl Zeiss optics, an LED flash, and DVD-quality video recording with built-in video lighting. The iPhone still has that meager 2-megapixel antique with neither a built-in flash nor manual focus.
The N97 also 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 extra 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 built-in GPSs (the iPhone's including 3rd party geo-location apps and GoogleMaps, the N97's consisting of an electronic compass and NokiaMaps). Both have HSDPA, Bluetooth, and WiFi connection.
No one can anticipate, however, that the Nokia store will ever be able to offer N97 users the range and variety of mobile phone apps that the iTunes App Store offer iPhone users.
Prices have yet to be launched, particularly in US dollars, it seems clear at least that the Nokia N97, with all its advantages over the iPhone, will likewise cost more to acquire than the iPhone.
