u can't imagine how narrow the depth of field of a phone can be....

U have a better idea if you are regular N8 thread reader... Nokia Gallery...

More through N9 hands on. Its Vietnamese tho.



I can see Skype integration in the messaging menu. This leads me to believe that this phone will have deep integration with Skype, like N900. Surely a plus for me, as I'm going overseas to further my study in the future.

Nokia N9, I'm Sold! Now where do I pre-order this beast hmm...

Nice too. Meego UI is already a nice enough treat. The design aint so bad anyway. N900 users sure know how to compromise on design for using such a bulky device.

I wonder if Apple is gonna file a lawsuit against Nokia or Meego for copying the way it navigates through the menu as well as the press-hold to activate the delete action for task manager. Or maybe that's why Nokia is waiting for it's lawsuit to end against Apple so that they get to use some iOS features for free during settlement talk.

Swipe to close... That's A FIRST in smartphone. You only need a menu, task manager and a reminder... Hmmm, hmmmm, hmmmmm,...

Did I miss anything important? One would have wonder how Nokia fortune might be if they had this shit a year ago. Definitely not something that wow, but nevertheless comparable to the competition.

I have to applaud Nokia for the phone assembly, it's so Apple'ish. No creaks, no edges, just one smooth piece of classy engineering.

Sometimes Nokia really make you wanna bash them even more. They already think home screen is not important, and yet go all the way to implement a home screen that sucks under S3. It's really clean n yet simple like iOS. Those Symbian freaks should thank Elop for wiping Nokia ass clean from these idiotic Symbian coder.

Apple lose in patent war before with Nokia. I don't think they gonna file a lawsuit this instant.

You did miss something, no CBD, just AMOLED display, which is a letdown

this one u mean?



shall they file a lawsuit?

Seriously BuFung, I don't know where did u get the idea, the design of iPod nano touch and N9 is similar? So far, I could only see you response to this, but I haven't encounter other comments bout the similarity in design of N9 and iPod nano. hurm.

Actually quite same lor, just elongated. But that's also why I'm impressed.

That's not what I meant. If you play zerokbom's YouTube link and fast forward it to 9:04, take a look at the press-hold to activate the delete action for task manager, it's all to similar to iOS multi tasking. Nokia win Apple for how it handle multi tasking, maybe Apple would want revenge now that there are striking similarity.

Now that Nokia has this as the UI, I really wonder if any N900 user will ever want to buy one.

Gone are the desktop like tablet, all they have now is just row after row of icons, row after row of task, row after row of reminder... you dont call it a TABLET now do you? Must be a big disappointment for Maemo fans.

Yes; This doesn't look like Maemo at all; The icons looks like Anna?
As mentioned before, this looks like a "refined" N8, just lacks the camera; In fact, it should have come earlier a year ago as you mentioned, as the N8. Imagine this with N8 camera, launched last year.

By the way, this isn't the actual MeeGo... this is the Maemo6/Harmattan, said to be MeeGo Compatible. After this, will be should be the actual MeeGo device.....

It doesn't need the current N8's camera to be success.. a camera in phone just another function in a phone...

the N8 camera module will make the phone look thicker and uglier...

today ppl more focus on it internet integrity .. that is what actually Nokia always said.. but didn't do so well now a day... "Connecting People"....

Not developer larh but I applied for an account last time and downloaded the Qt SDK to play around. Out of curiousity.

I did not follow any Meego/Maemo news at all, because I never expect them to support them well after my fiasco with 7710.

The simplicity of this is really on par with iOS, I would say. Its just so simple, that they really have nothing much to show, BUT the camera has touch focus.

WTH!!! Even N8 does not have touch focus. Not sure whats more to come from it, but I really wonder if Nokia can really live it up and get some serious developers to deliver the apps needed for it to thrive. Otherwise this is just another SHOWOFF product by Nokia, showing the world what they can do with it and yet failing to deliver it yet again.

I was once put an eye on Samsung Galaxy S2, now i'm waiting for this phone's more detail.. I have so many nokia charger at home and I'm those guy who don't really like too many connectivity issues..

N9 data sheet

good 1... Epik...

Wow F/2.2 This is interesting and audio supports FLAC

true like what Andy said.. this N9 is just "Meego base" product.. it is not MeeGo itself..
