Black Sheep! Is The White Colored Nokia N97 Stealing The Thunder?

Nokia N97 Black Version

It’s no doubt that the white Nokia N97 looks extremely slick and is taking a page out of Apple’s design book. A chrome trim and white surface looks fabulous on any device, and the N97 is no exception. Normally I prefer a black phone over any other color, especially white. But the N97 black seems to be getting overshadowed (if that’s possible) by white. Everyone I’ve talked to loves the white version and it seems to be the one that everyone will be picking up. So do you want to stand out from the crowd? If so, then the black version might be the one for you.

I haven’t come across many pictures on the web of the black N97 so I decided to find the best ones and post them here. Later on I will doing a “part 2″ post with even more pictures.

Personally I think they could have made the black N97 a little more black. In these pictures it seems more dark grey – with a bit of a charcoal finish. I would’ve rather seen a glossy black finish like the popular Nokia N82 had.

What do you think? Will you be purchasing the N97 in black or white? Don’t forget that you can preorder either color right now.

  • I would like to see the traditional brown version. But I've not decided yet. The white looks nice, but the black looks great. Hopefully I can see them both in real life when it's available.
  • A brown version would be pretty darn classy. I haven't officially decided yet either. I'm starting to lean towards the black, but like you said I need to see them in person. Maybe I'll order the black version and if I don't like it I'll send it back for the white. Amazon has great return policies and easy shipping.
  • I hope to buy it in the store on a contract. Should bring the price down a bit. Still, it will be at least a month before the N97 is available over here.
  • I don't think the N97 will be coming to carriers in USA anytime soon. Hopefully your country has some excellent deals.
