Nokia has announced the N97 mini, a compact touchscreen handset that is a smaller version of its flagship N97 smartphone. The manufacturer unveiled the S60 5th Edition-powered phone at Nokia World in Germany this morning. Despite its size, the small device still maximizes its display potential with a 3.2-inch, 640 x 360 pixel resolution resistive touchscreen display and manages to include a full-QWERTY sliding keyboard.
The N97 mini features quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900MHz) and support for UMTS in two different tri-band configurations(850/1900/2100MHz and 900/1900/2100MHz) with HSDPA for high-speed connectivity. WiFi
connectivity should also provide snappy access to the Internet when's there's no 3G to be found. With a full HTML web browser that includes Flash Lite for rich web media, users should have plenty of places to go on the net, too.
Users can listen to their own music collection or tune into radio stations since the device has FM RDS Radio support. A 5.0 megapixel autofocus camera with Carl Zeiss Optics and geotagging capability provided by an aGPS chipset
could be great for users looking to share photos with friends and family while out and about. Users can stash their music, photos, and video on 8GB of internal memory. Additionally, the device has support for microSD cards for storage expansion.
The N97 mini includes several new software improvements like home screen widgets and it is the first device to include Lifecasting with Ovi, a social networking tool that is integrated with Facebook, thanks to a partnership that the companies announced today.
The Nokia N97 mini will be available in October for EUR 450 (US$639) before taxes and subsidies.
