Nokia N97 Low Light Camera Samples

We have seen quite a few images and the vidoes from the Nokia N97′s camera recently, however not many low light shots have come up so far. Today we are in luck and a few low light shots from the Nokia N97′s camera have just popped up and they look pretty good. Not too much noise as well.

The images have been taken outdoors at night, indoors in low light and in a club. Click to enlarge.

Nokia N97 Support Page & User Manual Now Live

The biggest indicator of a device being close to shipping is the appearance of the support page and that is exactly what has happened for the Nokia N97. The support pages are up on the Nokia Europe website. The second main benefit that comes from these is the fact that you can get hold of the user manual in your own language as well.

Now excuse me as I thumb (click) through the N97 user manual. Direct link for the English version is here.

Good news for the gaming enthusiasts, if these indications are to be believed the Nokia N97 will be running N-Gage by the time it hits stores worldwide. The client is already ready and it looks exactly like the one available on other S60 3rd Edition devices. The last time I had a virtual play with the Nokia N97, there was no N-Gage despite a folder titles ‘Games’ being present, this time I was pleasantly surprised.
Here are a few screenshots of the client as seen via Forum Nokia’s RDA. There was …
