Hello There,
First big thanks to Amazon and the post office for fast delivery (standard). Have on Dec. 21. The HTC HD2 returned, the Nokia N97mini ordered on Dec. 22 to receive at 9:00 on 24 DEZ Österreichische Post !!
Both thanks !!
I've spent the past few months a lot of time searching (internet and business) for a new phone or smartphone and I was after reading the div. Forums very insecure. Maybe I can use it to help a little.
Since the N97mini for me following the N97 should most teething (and there were) to be resolved and I after 1 week use still no defects found.
Essential for me is that I still can very well use a mobile phone (better reception than the Nokia 6288), a good contact management, a useful camera for everyday life (my SLR is not always present) with a very large memory (8 GB used internally, 8GB memory card and phone-SW in the extra 250MB phone mem) and if necessary a GPS tracker (running distance measure incl. altitude and with Nokia chest even the pulse).
While jogging listening to music (MP3 or RDS Radio), his covered km measure and be accessible when required tel -. In one device.
I was the HTC Magic (Android) test a week and the HTC HD2 (Windows Mobile) one day at home, in addition many current smartphones in different shops.
To me came after the test no more than a phone with an external keyboard in question and the N97mini is very good in the hand, is the weight perfectly for me and the processing is absolutely great - a lot of metal.
First look at a closer can be seen in the collapsed state the very small gap between keyboard and display.
I have thought as transport protection Displayfolie not taken down, it can also serve with it very well.
It was ready to go, did not immediate (like the aforementioned) connected to the Internet, what do I what to do and also to synchronize with Outlook works without problems.
When HTC Magic I had to create a Google Accout, move my Outlook data there, and the data has been synchronized online - at a flat rate certainly great. Programs were repeatedly without my help online !! Only after much effort succeeded in curbing me to communicate.
Wifi works well in N97, and the question at the start of a program to (as adjusted), if the connection should be carried out on my house-WLAN or over the Internet. The scroll works fine without jerking and if you close a program, then it is also closed.
The home screen can be set up wonderfully to the needs:. Have my 8 favorite contacts with picture, the 4 upcoming events (expandable to 8) including birthdays and even 8 other important for me links it - with the display is blank smudge and from unwanted View protected.
Speed dial works as usual also for other contacts.
Despite this, for me here is the HTC Magic here in the lead, it is possible to create several different. Screens and this also with a smudge towards and forth (though less per screen shortcuts).
The HTC HD2 is nice, has a great grooooßen Bilschirm (only one to configure) yet matched with a sensational weather widget, but I had to 8h no reasonable synchronization. It was for me pers. Too much Windows in my life, with its neg. Impact (crashes every now and then restart etc.) The HD2 is great, but for me, no phone for everyday life more, it has a phone at background noise that bothered me and I had long telephone conversations because of the width of a strong pull in his hand. Beautiful but not practical for me.
All Smartphones applies: Only through the many additional programs, one imagines his individual phone together.
An example: you load the free Alarm Clock "Night Stand" from OVI Store (similar to the Android store), the display will lock up and you have a night alarm clock that displays the clock and alarm on the display. Or is the N97 the standard clock (multiple alarm settings), the mobile phone is switched off and it wakes one anyway.
There are probably more Androidshop free programs than in OVI Store, but also in the www there is more or less good.
* Music is with the supplied headphones very good - Super sound, bass great radio reception very good (similar to SE W595)
Still very good noise * Photo and video quality in daylight top, in lit room at night strong
* Office and PDF documents read only possible (expandable surcharge)
- Battery life: much play calling, 1h Navi, Bluetooth (for hands-free) and WLAN always at 24h
but I use a car charger, thus eigenlich not a big problem.
Just great is the keyboard, which is to be replaced by no matter how great touch - had previously repeatedly mistake while entering by finger on the touch screen - super pressure point even with a larger man's hand still great to use. If you fold out the keyboard, the display is automatically switched to landscape mode.
Will there be times when surfing tricky (small links) known from a normal keyboard arrows are used.
The Screen smeared not (for film?), It can also be seen on the device fingerprints - it is total of the bronze color (if you like) is preferable black. I have not yet aware of cleaned the unit throughout the week with a cloth, it remains clean and there is nothing visible. Both HTC I had several times to consciously clean because of the appearance day, the screen and the black glossy casing was soon smeared.
Who does not know Nokia, which is the menu probably a little confusing with the many levels, but you can put various programs in user-created folders and arrange the order of the programs themselves -. Means to me again more overview.
Conclusion: with the one but in truth just about trumps any other phone for me a great, everyday use mobile phone or smartphone, without frills Appearance
