Summary: Business & student potential WiFi N97 users - read this first
Comment: If you are thinking about using the N97's built-in WiFi for net access through a corporate or university network, you might want to check if your company or university uses EAP-TTLS/PAP for WiFi authentication/security. If they do, there's a good chance this and other Nokia phones won't work with it. Despite three years of protests on Nokia's corporate website and online petitions, Nokia has failed to add support for this common security to their smartphones. Google EAP-TTLS PAP for more info.

Summary: Never Again Nokia! wish I could give it zero stars!
Comment: I went through 2 of these defective phones before I got the 3rd here. Even this one was buggy and would consistently drop calls, freeze up for an inordinate amount of time when responding to a simple txt. I am an IT professional and didn't have much installed on the phone and always installed the latest firmware. I have had Nokia phones all my life and my 1st smart phone was the N95 8GB. After my experience with Nokia's latest smartphone and worthless OVI store I am officially done with Nokia unless they get their act together. I just got a Nexus One and it is blazing fast and opens anything by the time you have your finger off the screen. Nexus One BEST PHONE EVER! Don't waste your time with this POS!

Summary: Disapointing phone
Comment: First of all thanks for reading this review and hope it helps.

My story with this phone is that I purchased it right after it came out into the market, from the start had to do a firmware update, and unfortunatly the phone keeps on presenting problems. I am at firmware 2.0 and it just seems that this firmware just made the phone worse the before. For starts, the phone presents constant lock ups and memory loss requiring hard reset (having to take out the batrery and memory card for the unit to start up). Lock ups are most noticeable when the phone memory (ram) is low, even though no widgets or programs running the phone eats up ram by itself, and you receive a phone call. Right after hanging up the phone locks ups and have to go throught the whole process of reseting the phone. Options for the different screens are hard to acces since have to go through several menues to get to them. The camera lens is very prone to scratches, taking night pictures is basically unusable due to the flash being reflected from the scratches of the lens. Key pad feedback is basically not there, keys have no real sence of travel. The phone is under powered, there is a very noticeable lag between screen selection of a program and actualy opening of the program, screen rotation is slow to the point were you have to shake the phone to make it realise that you wish to go to portrait mode or back to landscape. Overall I personally do not recomend the phone, specially for the price of the unit. There are a lot of other phones that even though, might have less functionality, work a lot better and are less frustrating to use then this unit. Support from Nokia is lacking, not very helpfull when you finally are able to contact them.
Overall a very disapointing experience, leaves you feeling as if your were ripped of for paying a premium price for a substandard so called phone.

Summary: It is not Nokia!
Comment: Last month I had two problems- I had lost my excellent phone Nokia N95 8 GB and bought Nokia N97 for more then 500$
It is just big surprise for me -it looks like Nokia, but it is not ...
You can see detailed review everewhere and unfortunately my phone has every described problem ... Last one- it hangs and frezes after any incomimg call and I have to remove battery to reset...
I don't say I'll never buy Nokia, may be one day they will have again good phone, but right now my reccomendations are- don't buy N97.

Summary: So disappointed!
Comment: I have owned a n95, n96 and just recieved my n97 in the mail today. I was so very excited when it finally arrived. The first thing that I noticed was the back piece that holds the battery in and how poorly made it is. If you attempt to put this difficult piece on the little clips will bend to a point you have to use a pair of plyers to unbend it. I was starting to get a little nervous.

After an hour of activation my phone officially "bricked". The unlock button would not work, no matter if I took the battery out, it didn't matter. I was totally screwed. I googled it online and apparently a lot of people are having this issue, the worst part is you can't connect it to your computer because your computer won't recognize it. So you are literally screwed. Nokia's only response is to send it in for repairs.

I have always loved Nokia's phones but after this phone I will never buy a Nokia phone again. $700 for a paper weight. If you don't believe me about all of these problems just google it. It's literally 50/50 if you will get a good one or not, and for $700 that is completely unacceptable. I feel like I've paid that much to be a beta tester.

Not acceptable.
