Just bought a Nokia N97 yesterday at 2pm of Nov. 21, 2009 in QSL where myu city is and I love it.

One thing that bothers me is the "feet". You can see the LCD ribbon inside and if I break the "feet", the ribbon will be broken.

Upon looking at the receipt, I saw the warranty where it says "parts and services". I'm so relieved.

The Nokia N97 is Php 26,800 with screen protector and the price has just been reduced since it was Php 27,500 the day before.

Here's my unboxing

I only welcome Symbian and Maemo so it's hard for me to choose a phone these days.

I want a phone similar to Nokia E90 with keyboard so those fancy capacitive touchscreens should have keyboards and are cheap (Nokia X6 and Apple iPhone 3GS are beyond Php 30,000)

Anyway, Im still trying to compile my knowledge and some resources and the time to look inside this Nokia N97 for a review with some inspirations from GSMarena.

PS: Nokia N97 Philippine edition is still v.11 so updating it to Over the Air will make it v.12 and updating it thru Nokia Software Update will be v.20 with Kinetic Scrolling

I remember that this one crappy Chinese company that made fake iPhones, CECT, also made fake N97's. I'm not sure what the quality is in comparison but whenever I had a CECT P168 it was no where near as good as an iPhone. But yea, yours is legit, everyone else should be cautious of people selling fakes on Ebay.

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.

    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
