Nokia N9 Launch Event and Bloggers Meetup,in Karachi, Pakistan


Introducing a simple swipe gesture, Nokia N9 is a stunning blend of design and the latest in smartphone technology
We already have reported yesterday about the official launch event of Nokia N9 in Pakistan. Now here are the key details of the event and pictures added at the end. The event was held at a local hotel and gathered top-notch technology enthusiasts from across Pakistan.
As claimed by Nokia (and we do believe that claim) the Nokia N9 introduces an innovative new design where the home key is replaced by a simple gesture: a swipe. Whenever you’re in an application, swiping from the edge of the display takes you home. The three home views of the user interface are designed to give fast access to the most important things people do with a phone: using apps, staying up to date with notifications and social networks, and switching between activities.

Why do we believe that above about Nokia N9? “Thinking”?
Well we have covered Nokia N9 in great detail with hands-on reviews and can say that it’s really an amazing device. To read about the coverage and reviews about Nokia N9, you explore the site with tags “N9-Reviews”, “N9 Apps”, “N9 Extras” or “Nokia N9″. We believe our coverage will help you decide that if you want to buy this smartphone or not.
Continuing with the event, Henri Mattila, Solution Marketing Manager, Middle East & Africa (MEA), Nokia explained about Nokia N9 in his own words.
With the Nokia N9, we wanted to design a better way to use a phone. To do this we innovated in the design of the hardware and software together. We reinvented the home key with a simple gesture: a swipe from the edge of the screen. The experience sets a new bar for how natural technology can feel. And this is just the beginning. The details that make the Nokia N9 unique – the industrial design, the all-screen user experience, and the expressive Qt framework for developers – will evolve in future Nokia products.

Press Release.

Karachi – 12th December 2011: Nokia recently hosted an exclusive preview of the Nokia N9, built for people who appreciate a stunning blend of design and the latest smartphone technology. The event was held at a local hotel and gathered top-notch technology enthusiasts from across Pakistan.
The Nokia N9 introduces an innovative new design where the home key is replaced by a simple gesture: a swipe. Whenever you’re in an application, swiping from the edge of the display takes you home. The three home views of the user interface are designed to give fast access to the most important things people do with a phone: using apps, staying up to date with notifications and social networks, and switching between activities.
The industrial design of the Nokia N9 is an example of extreme product making and craft. The body is precision-machined from a single piece of polycarbonate and flows seamlessly into beautiful curved glass. The laminated deep black display means that the user interface just floats on the surface of the product.
“With the Nokia N9, we wanted to design a better way to use a phone. To do this we innovated in the design of the hardware and software together. We reinvented the home key with a simple gesture: a swipe from the edge of the screen. The experience sets a new bar for how natural technology can feel,” said Henri Mattila, Solution Marketing Manager, Middle East & Africa (MEA), Nokia. “And this is just the beginning. The details that make the Nokia N9 unique – the industrial design, the all-screen user experience, and the expressive Qt framework for developers – will evolve in future Nokia products.”
The Nokia N9 also packs the latest in camera, navigation and audio technology for a great all-round experience. With no need for a home key, the all-screen Nokia N9 makes more room for apps to shine. The 3.9-inch AMOLED screen is made from scratch-resistant curved glass. The polycarbonate body enables superior antenna performance. This means better reception, better voice quality and fewer dropped calls.
The 8-megapixel Carl Zeiss autofocus sensor, wide-angle lens, HD-quality video capture and large lens aperture enable great camera performance even in lowlighting conditions. This makes the Nokia N9 one of the best camera-phones ever produced.
The Nokia N9 features free turn-by-turn drive and walk navigation with voice guidance in Maps. With the new dedicated Drive app, you can get in the car and start navigating to your destination right away when travelling abroad.
You can watch videos in true 16:9 widescreen format. And because the Nokia N9 is also the world’s first smartphone with Dolby® Digital Plus decoding and Dolby Headphone post-processing technology, you get a surround sound experience with any set of headphones.
Fitted with the latest in wireless technology, Near Field Communication (NFC), the Nokia N9 allows you to easily share images and videos between devices by touching them together. Pair it with Bluetooth accessories like the new NFC-enabled Nokia Play 360° wireless music speaker only once, and you get a great surround sound music experience with just a tap.
The Nokia N9 is available in three colors – black, cyan, and magenta with storage options to accommodate plenty of content: 16GB and 64GB. The Nokia N9 is available with Nokia distributors across Pakistan.
