Nokia N97 unboxed

As I mentioned earlier, Nokia Pakistan has given me an N-97 for 48 hours to review and make the most of it , how I find it well a detailed review is on the way for now I want to start with the unboxing i.e how the commercial packaging looks like and what’s provided with the phone

With Nokia N-97 Nokia went with the minimalist approach , the box is plain grey with the phone embossed on top of it and Nokia N97 written in Silver

The

On the Front Pane again not much information is given except 32 GB and Carl Zeiss

At the back the minimal of information is given as 32 GB ,  AF 5MP Carl Zeiss , nHD 3.5 “ ,  A-GPS ,  Bluetooth 2.0 .  WLAN , 3G HSDPA , USB 2.0 and FM RDS . As Nokia N97 contains a FM transmitter which is still licensable and not allowed in many countries a disclaimer is given that FM Transmitter is intended to be used in the following countries -  AT , BE , BG , CZ , DK , EE , FI , DE , IS , IE , IT , LT , LU , MT , NL , NO , PL, PT , RO , ES , CH , SE , TR , GB . Why mainly European Countries are mention ? well I’ll come to it down the line

On the back wall is given the usual Nokia Sticker with IMEI information , phone model N97-1 and country of origin i.e Finland hence the European Countries.in disclaimer

When the Flap is opened , unlike E75 , there are no cases inside just another flap with nokia.com/nseries/ written on it another minimalist approach and not given any hints what’s underneath it , mystery mystery –

\

Open the flap and there lies the phone in a pre molded plastic tray , I think the empty side pocket  contains the battery and stylus ( I didn’t got the stylus , they forgot it at their office )

Remove the tray and here lies the accessories , the usual N95-8gb headset , Micro Fiber  Cleaning cloth , 2 chargers one with UK and other with normal prongs as N97 is charged via Micro USB  , both chargers have microusb connecters .   A CA-146C Nokia regular and mini pin adapter to micro USB adapter . and OVI Suite CD.

There is no mention of TV Out cable on the official provided accessories neither any was in the sales package , Nokia when I’m paying a hefty price for a phone , I expect to get all the accessories , now the CA-75 U AV cable is missing which was standard with Nokia N95-8gb and I even got one with 6500 slide , why Nokia didn’t put it in with N97 when even 5800 XM had it , are they cutting costs on it .

So here is the unboxing and provided accessories minus the Stylus , what are your thoughts on it discuss in comments .
