What does the N9 offer above the N900
Reading through all the various threads & posts,
I'm yet to find a compelling reason to move from my N900 to the N9? It just doesn't seem to offer anything new or better in my opinion. Yes it has a better screen res, more built in storage and a marginally better camera. ............ but lacks a hw keyboard, fm radio, replaceable battery I just can't see how it's worth getting one when you already have an N900? Or have I missed something here? Not saying it's better or worse, just don't see how it offers me anything to get excited about. |

Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
I'll keep my N900 for the keybard and the I.R. transmitter!
For me, if Nokia do a N950, i'll earn a N950. I the N9 is the last MeeGo's Nokia phone, I'll earn a N9 but keep my N900 again: my N900 to use it at home, the N9 to use it away... |
Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
Free maps and navigation straight out of the box

What does the N9 offer above the N900?
Tens of threads asking what does the device offer above it's predecessor. |

Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
I have and love my N900 but will be getting an N9 because…
bigger and better screen better camera (8MP) free maps & navigation faster processer more Ram (1024mb) more Memory (64gb) bigger battery IMHO a sleeker and modern design… |

And the N9 have only one processor. - For the internal memory, i'm OK, but the N9 will have a Micro SD slot? - For the battery, OK, but you can't change the battery (so, if your N9 bug or if you would change your N9 battery...) - For RAM, OK, very good! For me, the N900 have that in more: - Keyboard :-). - IR transmitter. - F.M. transmitter. ... |

Got to agree with all that however surely the big one is the meego os and I assume access to more apps/games? If the meego CE os ever gets a viable os then there seems no compeling reason to buy a N9 as having no Flash support is disappointing. As matters stand a SGS2 seems a better long term purchase, should I ever get bored with my N900. |
Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
There's fm transmitter built in but no software as was in the case of n900 initially.

That being said, apps are not the be all and end all of a look at the n900! |
Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't AMOLED use less battery if there's a black background? If so, my battery life is gonna be awesome because I will use a special "n900 theme."
So, in answer to the question: Excellent battery life. |

The screen size is positive thing. The more powerful battery as well. |
Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
Bigger screen, navigation maps, no hardware keyboard!

Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
It costs more.

Google translation from German I found NFC, better voice quality because of 2 mics and a compass as the main features that the N9 has over the N900. (And the 1GB RAM, of course :) ...) |
Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900

Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
NFC is Near Field Communication. You can use it for example to touch bluetooth devices and pair/unpair them (well, if the BT device is also NFC enabled). This was demonstrated in one of the N9 hands-on videos.

Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
+1 more RAM
+1 not that thick as N900/N8 +1 car navigation (which would probably not crash every few minutes as Sygic solution does on my N900) Off topic: -10 no replaceable battery (makes the device unreliable) -1 different SIM card size (unable easily to swap SIM cards to other phone as N9 dies, again does not allow to recover from unreliability) -1 no hw keyboard -1 no cover for the camera lens -1 no SD card support (for memory hungry apps as offline wikipedia, additional offline maps,...) Off off topic: I want one, even if it is expensive, stupid and unreasonable idea. |

Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
pros:
- slim - stylish - big screen - gorilla glass - capacitive cons: - capacitive - no hw keyboard - no replaceable battery i'm not putting hw-power in the list, because thats obvious. i'm not sure... i will not buy it as soon as it comes out. i'll wait for some reviews and stuff. |

plastic bit for micro sim => sim adapter: 10 cents. and 64 gb is already a lot of space (just, less reliable for backups, extreme recovery, other OS, etc...) |
Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900

Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900

What does the N9 offer above the N900….
MULTI TOUCH…. its going to be awesome 8-) |
Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
Nobody mentioned anything yet which justifys spending £500/$600 on the N9.

Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
Its an overall user experience in a compact phone, where you can use one hand to communicate. N900 is a clumsy daddy compared to the athleticism of N9. N900 will be a tablet at home and N9 will be a workhorse during the day.

Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
The N9 is what I wished the N800 would have become. The extra screen real estate and thinner profile should make up for other shortcomings.
|
Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
What extra screen real estate? It's hardly bigger than N900 screen, just a tad wider. And you lose it all because of the vkb....
|
Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
Non-detachable microUSB port. :D

Re: What does the N9 offer above the N900
My friends won't make fun of me anymore. Everytime I take the N900 out of my pocket I lay myself open to ridicule.."Ah you got your laptop with you..haha!".
If I show them the N9 they will stand if awe! ;) And its special, its important to be different these days ;) |
