The Nokia N97 is a feature-packed smartphone, that's for sure. For wireless connectivity, you have HSDPA, Wi-Fi Bluetooth stereo A2DP and Assisted-GPS for navigation. There's also a 3.5mm audio jack for plugging in your personal ear,buds and 32GB of onboard memory is plenty for most people.

Unfortunately, the plus points of the N97 are mostly on paper. In actual use, the interface of the S60 5th edition software is dated, inconsistent and pales in comparison to other snazzier touchscreen operating systems out there. To be fair, the S60 software is a very mature and capable operating system. But because of that, the interface is also shackled by legacy issues.

The flush keys on the keyboard are hard to type on. I suggest you try it out first to see if you can live with that before purchasing one. It also Comes With Music for music aficionados. This is Nokia's buffet-style music download service. There's also Ovi Store, which again unfortunately, doesn't have as many interesting apps compared with Apple's App Store.
