Beauuuutiful piece of tech. I hope Nokia bring back this curvy ergonomic designs.. and put a full screen on their fones. That way they will have an identity just like iPhones do over the years. This is perfect Nokia DNA
funny how this was way ahead of its time. It was not apple and adroid that killed Nokia. Nokia basically stabbed themselves by not paying attention into marketing this instead of Windows phone. RIP to you Meego
i liked the fact that this guy had to constantly swipe to get the pages to move. the samsung galaxy s2 is the most responsive, fast, efficient phone on the market for the next 6 months
Well, looks like MeeGo finally grew up to match what is out there. The UI looks like a cross between Android and WP7.5 but can be more refined to be as good as WP7.5 Certainly very fluid in the navigation but how about multi-tasking ?.
Ok, I have IPhone4 but holy shit, this phone is amazing. In the end he was running what, 20-30 apps while playing Angry Birds? Totally zero slowdown & you were able to swipe out of that as well... The OS is superior to anything else on the market, I wish it had wide developer support for a lot of new apps.
@shrytu That was only a developers edition of MeeGo and it wasn't actually working as a phone. Actually the N9 also runs Maemo 6, aka. Harmattan aka. Meego 1.2 Harmattan...
There are 2 things that conerns me in this video.. 1.The swype gesture - Where you would close/minimise an application to the background. Wouldn't it be easily activated while panning around an application like the internet browser, maps or gallary? @ 2:12 while trying to press that conner button he accdiently activated the 'swype' gesture.
This is what the n8 should of been, nokia would of been in a great position now. This os looks the most modern of all the current phones. A real winner however is it going to succeed given the announcement regarding windows mobile
I have N8, and N9 is supposedly is an updated virgin of it. But it's a completely different phone: the software, hardware, design, camera, EVERYTHING. So why do they call it N9????
It seems very solid phone just like always . However , what is the idea of moving the front facing camera to the lower right side ? Is there any specific reason ? Because it looks very stupid and odd !
2. Facebook - I'm using the N8 right now and seriously the social app sucks big time. Its so bad that i have to resort to 3rd party apps like mobileways gravity just to get a descent facebooking experience. That's why i'm really interested as in what facebook features are supported on Meego's facebook app. Also who programs it? Facebook themselves or nokia?
I don't understand why nokia did add home screens on the no with widgets and stuff like with maemo witch they could of done by swipe top to bottom or bottom to top
Unfortunately the link doesn't work anymore. I still have the phone( works perfectly) but it not my daily driver. I use it for some experiments. I installed Firefox Os once and now I use Jolla sailfish Os on it. Works better than android. In the future I will try to install a simplified version of Android Marshmalow. Sorry again but the link doesn't work.
@1234fllf well yeah but that's like in the middle of the video..but it wasn't responsive since the begining anyway...so bad thing is it isn't that responsive and a bit slow...good thing it keeps this speed no matter what apps ur opening!! so in short, never gets slower or faster!!!
@noeledhaimere Galaxy s II is too big at 4.3", has way to much plastic in the construction, and is a poor man's iphone 4. The N9 has a camera to die for, gorgeous looks, curved gorilla glass screen - the first no button device, free offline turn by turn sat nav, and - a first for Nokia - the UI is smoother than a billiard ball. The only thing that I would need is cloud back up.
@stefiking92 yeah but i'm not talki ng about the swipe thingy.In general, in this video he sometimes had to touch somethings a couple of times for it to respond..also even if it was responsive still the software isn't still that great, i'd stick with android or ios or even wp7 until nokia makes nice phone
@cirkusarena for me nokia n9 has everything but there is one thing that it still cannot beat nokia n8...their megapixel...nokia should put 12 MP on this nokia n9 than it will be the best phone ever...unfortunately

i absolutely love nokia hardware
nokia what a nice jump from this N9.i am still loving nokia now
Indeed the iPhone has changed phone designs forever! :)
Looks awesome. I would get this is it had Blackberry features. That's why I got the BB Torch 9860. But yeah, this phone looks so cool.
Awesomeeeee!!!!! WELCOME BACK NOKIA!! :)
This is going to be one powerful device!
sad to say but it wasn't upto the hype !!
@fteoOpty64 weren't you watching? multitasking is like the highlight of this phone!
where was this vid shot at? i see the phone is on a t-mobile network, is it tmobile usa?
Nokia N9 with Meego was a revolution.
This is only a meego phone?
i liked the fact that this guy had to constantly swipe to get the pages to move. the samsung galaxy s2 is the most responsive, fast, efficient phone on the market for the next 6 months
Beeeeeautiful
@cirkusarena. The swipe ul look also good. I hope Nokia patents it because it is very innovative.

@07liberian No, N950 is updated version for N900.....N9 doesn't even have a slide out keyboard
If this phone was in the USA i would be so happy, I truly miss Nokia. the US gets all the lower grade models
I have had a Nokia6600i slide for three years, dropped it countless times and it still survives -.- man i want an n9
man so cooooooooolllllll
nokia gonna b d best again.........
@MichaelIluma Well technically they released it originally with Maemo THEN they had the n900 run MeeGo.
This Demonstration is bat, for the man.
ahh my love n9
@najibnk look at 2:12. Clearly while he was trying to reach that button at the conner of the screen, the 'swype' gesture was registered instead.
You can slide up slightly to bring up the shortcuts
Nokia really stepped up its game . Wonder how it compares to the samsung Galaxy s2 or iphone 4s ,
This is what the n8 should of been, nokia would of been in a great position now. This os looks the most modern of all the current phones. A real winner however is it going to succeed given the announcement regarding windows mobile
unfortunately not ;c
It's Nokia's SECOND phone with MeeGo. Their first was the N900 :)
awesome phone i would like to see what happend with the os with more support
why did nokia scrap meego?
N9 is God-like!
@AJperlaki i am not worried about that, just have to find a place to get it once it releases is my problem.
here comes the future :)
@DemiAps Damn ! Lucky you ! :P My problem is that i live in Guatemala and there are no N9 here so i have to wait
Very nice video buddy but I got a question for you can you make a Skype video calls on nokia n9
Nokia is back in tha house yo .... !!
@Chrisgonal how is the phone, because The US is never getting a MeeGo powered phone.
is there like a tropical beach theme for this phone if not i do not like a phone xD looks great though, and it is not an android phone right?
I have N8, and N9 is supposedly is an updated virgin of it. But it's a completely different phone: the software, hardware, design, camera, EVERYTHING. So why do they call it N9????
@shrytu That shipped w MaeMo 5 and can be ugraded to MeeGo 1.2
This phone is a MeeGo 1.2 phone, which uses lots of code together with Maemo 6. ;)
It seems very solid phone just like always . However , what is the idea of moving the front facing camera to the lower right side ? Is there any specific reason ? Because it looks very stupid and odd !
this phone has nice look
How come this phone is already available in my country, Malaysia?
@darkzerk7 There is an app you can download which allows you to run any android app.
@Nanozander to close or minimise app you need to swype from the edge of the screen .
Why is that noise in the back?
The design is so pretty tho
@CheManiange So I'm guessing you got your 10 n9s then eh?
@xXzooma94Xx That is because when you swipe you need to do that from the edge of screen..it cant do swipe from the middle..
@tokodan This is just a test version. They will update the phone before it comes out. So it will be faster and smoother :D
welcome to the competition Nokia
2. Facebook - I'm using the N8 right now and seriously the social app sucks big time. Its so bad that i have to resort to 3rd party apps like mobileways gravity just to get a descent facebooking experience. That's why i'm really interested as in what facebook features are supported on Meego's facebook app. Also who programs it? Facebook themselves or nokia?
@darkzerk7 i totally agree with you, the 3 views is more thought out compare to samsung and htc android..
NICE! I wish it was Windows or Symbian!
THEY STILL SELL IT SOMEWHERE? O.o Nice!
@Nanozander ohh.. i can see that . but you need to swype all the way . so it not a big problem...
the symbian or meego has never been more competitive compared to android os
will this be available in canada??!?!!
I like what i see, i wonder how much this will cost.
I don't understand why nokia did add home screens on the no with widgets and stuff like with maemo witch they could of done by swipe top to bottom or bottom to top
i still use this phone in 2016 and it still good ..BUT I INSTALLED ANDROID 4.4 ON IT :)))))))
Andrei Stan how?
can you give me the rom link?
Unfortunately the link doesn't work anymore. I still have the phone( works perfectly) but it not my daily driver. I use it for some experiments. I installed Firefox Os once and now I use Jolla sailfish Os on it. Works better than android. In the future I will try to install a simplified version of Android Marshmalow. Sorry again but the link doesn't work.
Andrei Stan can you show me some photos of the OS?
you mean jolla right ?
best phone !!
@StrongBOXMobile Sure it is
@CerberusOperativeN7 October is what I am hearing
@xXzooma94Xx Well it was running like 20 apps in the background...
looks better than wp7!
@xXzooma94Xx I saw other vidoes where it worked pretty normally, so really responsive.
10 minuten voller geiler meego power!!
swiping through 8 years old Comments.
Don't really like the UI it's kinda dull. Thanks for review.
What is the third page he swipes?
Yay Bazil! :-D
@1234fllf well yeah but that's like in the middle of the video..but it wasn't responsive since the begining anyway...so bad thing is it isn't that responsive and a bit slow...good thing it keeps this speed no matter what apps ur opening!! so in short, never gets slower or faster!!!
Nokia is trying to be number 1 again they have really beefed up. Just they need a more interesting OS
@nnmhang navigation is great and free and offline
@darkzerk7 apparently u can run android apps on this bad boy
@jithinrjayan how do you download it?
@shrytu No! That phone had mameo
HTC and Apple and LG all day
@fteoOpty64 no offence but.. this phone is like multitasking GOD...
