Nokia N9 review: Once in a lifetime

14 October 2011
When the first touch-only OS debuts on one of the hottest pieces of hardware this year, you can bet we want a piece of the action. Windows Phone is where Nokia want your attention, but it might turn out that MeeGo is the place you want to be. Not shown much love by its own maker...

Why you never compare camera quality in darker enviromments? I think it's the most important thing to compare on a mobile phone camera...

    Dont know when last time have read a phone review like this!!! i just want to slap Elop to kill this amazing device/platform.

    another example for those who think Nokia cant deliver - Nokia can but the problem is one Trojan(Elop)..

        Lol of course the N9 will be more expensive then the Samsung Galaxy S2 because the latter phone came out 5 months ago.

            Thank you very much GSMARENA for posting this. I keep refreshing my browser here at work every 30 mins just for this.

            There's no doubt in my mind, Im getting the N9. I don't care about the freakin lack of apps (well Im still hoping for that Alien Davlik thingy to work) :P

                Thanks for your fantastic review of N9 gsmarena. Good to see you guys liked the phone. N9 and Os may not live long but the legacy which it leaves behind will last forever in many forthcoming nokia devices.

                Also i would like you all to read the latest news on 3500 improvements coming to Meego very shortly. Links below

                    nice try gsmarena team..now understood y N9 is not released in INDIA...no FM radio no go...Nokia is very clever in designing their products and they know the market well better than anybody else..but period..Nokia could have built phones with atleat 4" display then the story would have been different
