5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
The competition has been heating up in the lucrative smartphone sector and Nokia so far has failed to make a major impact. Nokia is pinning its hopes on the N97 to turn things around. The world’s largest mobile phone producer just cannot seem to get the smartphone quite right but the N97 does look to have the goods that could possibly change that. The N97 gives people more of a choice and provides a good mix between business and pleasure. This is Nokia’s first ever multi-sensory touchscreen phone. The latest addition to the N series boasts impressive features such as a generous 3.5 inch touchscreen, sliding QWERTY keyboard, integrated GPS and A-GPS receivers with built-in Nokia maps and a MicroSDHC slot. It comes in black or white. A big advantage over the iPhone is that the N97 offers the user access to a QWERTY keyboard. The keyboard is well spaced making it easy for all finger sizes to punch in text. Clever design allows the N97 screen to swing out to the side and flip upwards. The 32 gigabytes of internal memory can be extended to 48GB with a SD card.
