Re: Nokia N9 vs Galaxy S2
That always depends to some extend on your finger dexterity (and size) of course, but reviewers so far only had good things to say about the N9 virtual keyboard:

Re: Nokia N9 vs Galaxy S2
The same reason Macs are overpriced: The overall build-quality and their uniqueness justifies it. "Run-of-the-mill" products like most Android phones are always going to be cheaper. Also, Android/WP7...

Re: Nokia N9 vs Galaxy S2
Well, think about what you need the processor for. The UI is fluid on the N9, Android is not the most performant operating system, so a faster CPU merely makes it adequate. Videos run just fine on...

Re: N9 [Shipping]: It's finally here [for some]!
I don't have the final hardware, so I can't comment on it (some issues had to be fixed to make the white casing work reliably, so it may not be quite the same material).
Of course you will be able...

Re: N9 [Shipping]: It's finally here [for some]!
Finally. :) I have been using a glossy white prototype, and IMO it is the most elegant of all. One would think that it is simple to bring out a device in white, but it is not... So I am glad that we...

Re: Getting new phone: N9 or N900?
Not that there is anything wrong with it, but I find it a bit weird when people say "N900 for developers". Do you guys really develop on your phone?
The N9 just strikes me as the far more...

Re: The Big Nokia N9 Thread
I believe both issues are fixed already (centring on text, and scrolling in text boxes with two-finger-scroll). Should come in one of the updates then.

Re: No more good phones?
There is no problem whatsoever with multitasking or incoming call performance on the N9. Dual core is not needed for that. The problems of the N900 are caused by lack of RAM and inadequate software....

Re: [Announce] EasyList for N9/N950
It works for me, so I guess that is a bug that was fixed in the meantime.
Hm, but most apps hide the arrow when it's not needed. I guess it does no harm, but consider that the first view is...

Re: N9: It's finally here
What do you really want, a phone that is easier to use than the iPhone, or a phone that is _radically_ easier to use than the iPhone? If the N9 is "just" better, it's not good enough for every day...

Alarm ringing is pretty much the same thing. When you swipe the green bar (just a little), the alarm stops and you get the actual alarm dialog with "stop" and "snooze" buttons. I believe if you don't...

Re: Nokia N950 vs Nokia N9

N950:
- Bigger size, odd handling, feels like a previous-generation phone to me (especially after using the N9 for a while).
- I wouldn't call the hinge flimsy, but...
