Is the Nokia N9 really worth buying or not? The N9 is the latest smart phone that has been released by Nokia is probably the first and last phone that will run on MeeGo. Although MeeGo was launched recently in 2010, it already looks like it fails in comparison to Windows Phone 7 and may even fizzle out from the market in sometime.
Since the Nokia N9 already uses MeeGo, one question a prospective buyer may ask is whether the phone is really worth buying or not.
Most of the experienced Nokia mobile phone users would have obviously preferred a phone with a windows phone 7 platform, but then again there are a lot of features that the phone has to offer. Here are a few of its pros and cons.
Some of its up’s are that it comes with a large touchscreen and is available in three bright colors of black, magenta and cyan. It also has a lot more features that other Nokia smart phones do not exhibit. It is a pure touch phone with no keypad or home button in the front, although it does have a few physical controls on the side. Getting accustomed to its all touch screen functionality will be a little difficult for the regular Nokia user. The upside of using the MeeGo operating system is that it is easy to use and is easily usable by anyone which made the iPhone and iPad so successful.
The downside to the phone is that it is only suited towards the style conscious person and not for serious phone geeks. It does not offer third party applications and Nokia has still not clarified as to whether they will support MeeGo in the long run.
Nokia has always been the foremost company for phones in the last decade, but with the iPhone and other android enabled handsets available in the market, they have a tough time trying to maintain their position. But they have still proven that they have the capacity for innovation with the release of the Nokia N9.
