Nokia N9: Hands-on gallery photos-We don't want to get too close to the Nokia N9, because we know its MeeGo operating system is getting the chop from Nokia. Investing in MeeGo apps feels like a waste. But now we've had our hands on the N9, we can't help falling a little bit in love with Nokia's new phone.
Its slim polycarbonate body makes the N9 one of the few phones that lives up to the flattering renders released by its maker. The screen is another treat. It's just one aspect of a phone that seems perfectly designed for one-handed use. Two other home screens show a grid of apps and a stream of your texts, emails and tweets.
Following the middling-poor reviews (and reception) of its recent smartphone offerings, this could be their last completely Nokia smartphone before those Nokia-made Windows Phone 7 handsets arrive later this year.
whilst the front screen has a subtle curve, ideal for the new swipe navigation system.
You’ll notice there’s no visible buttons on the front of the phone; Nokia’s new phone operating system, MeeGo, relies on a simple, quickly-learnt swipe principle, and Nokia have nailed the touch-screen here; it’s responsive and smooth.
From screen-lock, a double-tap will wake the phone, as will using the power button on the right side of the phone.
The N9 also has a front-facing camera, curiously positioned in the lower right corner of the phone, prepped for videocalling. Thanks to the way AMOLED works, the Nokia icons really pop out of the black background.
