Finally I got My N97 mini speculations about a more compact version of N97.As expected, it has more compact size, weight and smaller display than the N97,but its hardware is almost the same – 434MHz ARM11 processor, GPS,Wi-Fi and 3G functionality and the only hardware feature that´s been slashed on is the amount of built-in memory, from 32GB to 8GB.

I got These Accesories In the box-
The Nokia N97 mini, Charger, MicroUSB cable, Stereo headset, User guide, Software CD.
The design is the smaller version of N97 but better quality and feels much more pleasing in your hand.To top it off, it´s more compact and carrying it about in the pocket of your trousers or jeans is by no means uncomfortable.
The more compact size has led to a smaller display.It measures 3.2 inches (the N97 comes with a 3.5-inch one), but is also resistive,with native resolution of 360x640 pixels and supports 16 mln colors.It delivers pleasing images with saturated colors in artificial lighting conditions,but is rather mediocre in direct sunlight.Its
sensitivity is normal and if you press harder, The proximity and light sensitivity sensors are above the screen again,along with the video call camera.The send and end keys are resistive and have retained the overall styling of the N97.I didn’t have any problems using them, because i didn’t encounter unregistered presses,the tactile feedback was pronounced all the time and they are properly backlit in the dark.
A side from them, there is a rather ordinary button that provides access to the main menu and task manager.It´s easy to use and its white backlighting acts as a blinking indicator for missed events.
The slider mechanism performs similarly to the one the N97 is equipped with.It´s quite tight and opens sharply, but closes slowly and smoothly.One of the differences to the N97 is the lack of D-Pad built into the QWERTY keyboard and i liked that.Despite the smaller dimensions of the handset,the size of the keys remains the same and the space in between is more than enough to prevent erroneous pressing of two buttons at the same time.
The keyboard allows for fast and error-free text entry,despite the the fact that keys lack enough travel and doesn’t feel pleasing to use.Anyway, I still like it better than the keyboard of Nokia´s flagship.
There are no changes on either side of the handset alongside of the N97 and the only difference is that the volume rocker feels handier to press.
The back is similar to the N97 – the lower part is slightly raised and the phone doesn’t tilt to its side when set on flat surface.
Unfortunately, the 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss Tessar optics and double LED flash seem to have parted ways with the sliding cover that would have protected it against scratches.
