Anssi Vanjoki: N97 sold well, but had horrible user experience

Nokia’s N97 was not bad – the keyboard was an issue, but all of that was dwarfed by the insanely unreliable software. AllAboutSymbian’s Rafe now had the opportunity to sit down with Nokia’s Anssi Vanjoki, who stated that the device was a tremendous success for Nokia in terms of units sold (see our Ovi numbers for more on that).

He also stated that the QA cycle for the N97′s software was “a vicious circle”, but has now been fixed (by testing on Norwegians ). He furthermore stated that the Symbian^3 experience would be “perfect”.
