N97 vs. N97 Mini - Is Nokia N97 Mini a ChinaPhone? NOPE! Check out Specs, Photo, Demo Video
A lot of TP readers have been asking me if Nokia N97 Mini is nothing but a chinaphone version of N97. Let me tell it straight now: It's NOT. Unless you get a knock-off, Nokia N97 Mini is an authentic Nokia release. It's actually the 'budget' version of the former ~ Smaller but still feature-packed:
