N97 Nokia N-Series Touchscreen

As many of you know from Smashpop, the N97 has been unveiled.

This phone is a hybrid of both touchscreen and a QWERTY keyboard at the bottom. Though Serge has not touch the N97, but with what he has read; the N97’s touch screen uses the touch-enhanced Symbian OS, S60 v5, which features the 5800’s quick contacts bar and adds an assortment of customizable desktop widgets that can pipe in your Facebook info, RSS feeds and the like, much like those found on Nokia’s internet tablet OS.

The screen of the N97 is a resistive touchscreen, which relies on pressing two layers of screen together with a fingernail or stylus to register a signal, so it is not as responsive as a capacitive screen which is driven by the natural electricity in your fingers. In simpler terms, capacitive screen is what the iPhone uses.
