N97: Unboxing

by Ben Smith on 3rd June 2009

A few quick un-boxing images of the N97 in production packaging. We’ll be reviewing one of the first production units in the UK - let us know your comments and questions in the comments.

    Super eager to check out the N97 but extremely disappointed that O2 won’t be stocking it on release!

  • Jai

    Can you please try out the fm transmitter?

    I’d really like to know what the sound quality is like for music on a car stereo. Can you use it for hands free calls on your car stereo? Will nokia maps instructions play over the car stereo?

    sweet, whats the little memory stick thing?

    IS the one you going to be recieving the one that you found or another one?

  • http://thereallymobileproject.com/ Really Mobile

    Carphone and Phones4U both have it so may be selling it on O2.

    This one is the “Search for N” prize - it was the metal N that was hidden
    and I picked the N97 up in the evening. Am going to give it a quick test
    and then… well… watch this space.

    It’s a stylus. I’ll snap a picture later.

    Will do - need a few days to get it out in the car tho’

    Any comments about the N97 contest you were planing?

    Looks like there’s a black mark on the screen already!

  • http://invalid.name DanLane

    Yes yes yes, we’ve all seen the N97 before… what about that big shiny N… did you get to keep that?!

  • http://benjam.in Ben Smith

    We’ll take a few days to agree the details and announce something here. Keep watching.

  • http://benjam.in Ben Smith

    Nope it’s in brand-new A1 condition. Defect-free…

  • http://benjam.in Ben Smith

    I did, but the pictures didn’t come out well last night. I’ll snap some more.

    It’s a weighty thing - perhaps the first item for the Really Mobile trophy cabinet.

  • raj

    try to do it before the official launch :) cant wait for it!!

  • http://nokiadna.com Micky

    Is this N97 pictured here a UK version.? The reason I ask, is because i heard something about the UK version not coming with the Stylus.

  • http://thereallymobileproject.com/ Really Mobile

    The firmware says UK, but it shipped with a Euro power adaptor.

  • http://nokiadna.com Micky

    Oh right. ok, thanks.! I guess time will tell if this rumor is true or not.

    Unfortuantely I am an O2 direct customer, held back from upgrading on my contract in the hope I would be offered a decent retention deal! Oh well CPW here I come!

    Good taste packaging this time (outside, inside is still a little messy), it reminds me of some B&O stuff I have bought (like EarSet 2 for example)

  • http://www.nokiasymbianthemes.com/ Chaos Inc.

    Even the pack seems so “Armani-ish” on the outside. Gotta check it out in depth soon!
