A simple guide to a Nokia mobile phone

Advantages: Looks, weight, simple to operate, sound quality
Disadvantages: On Off switch, clunky software

...I have kind of steered clear of Nokia products after my partner?s Nokia phone stopped working one day before the warranty expired & when she contacted them two days later they didn?t want to know. Even the guys at Virgin Mobile tried to persuade them to help but no they weren?t interested. So why am I reviewing a Nokia phone & won?t it be rubbish as revenge to the companies lack of help in the past. Well no, this review is based on a Nokia phone supplied by my ex employer & the review will not be influenced by previous experiences. The Nokia 6300 mobile phone is rather lightweight & small mobile phone, no fancy flip up or slider action screens here, just a straight forward ?candy bar? style phone. If feels good in your hands, slide it into your top shirt pocket & you would never know its there. It has a brushed aluminum style...

Nokia N95 Mobile Phone

Advantages: easy to use, long battery life, large screen, excellant connectivity very robust
Disadvantages: software glitches, size and weight.

...I have owned the n95 for over 1.5 years now, when i first received it there was some glitches with software etc but all where fixed quickly and with as little hassle as possible. in a day in age when mobile are getting smaller the nokia n95 may way your pocket down slightly But it is sturdy robust and lots of fun. the games available for the handset are great and the connectivity is fantastic, for a large phone the memory is quite small but can be expanded to 8 gig with a very cheap memory card which comes in handy. I use my phone daily at work as plumber meaning i need a phone which is robust and durable, the n95 surpasses my expectations easily, mine has been dropped so many times i cant believe its still going strong, i even dropped it into a newly fitted toilet b4 and only had to dry it out before switching it back on. it includes...

Review of Nokia N95

a very durable mobile by nokia

Advantages: slim design and metal body
Disadvantages: battery life is little less

...Nokia is a top most brand in manufacturing company of cell phones in the world. The quality and durability of the mobiles of nokia is awesome. Screen quality of the mobiles of this company is also very good. They are very rough and tough phones as compared to other manufacturers in the market. Now I am going to discuss about the nokia 6300. it is a slim category phone. The body of this cell is made of solid metal. So we need not worry about the care we have to give to phone. Very low maintenance is required for this model. Design and display Dimension of this phone are as follow: 106.4 x 43.6 x 11.7 mm, 56 cc and weight is about 90 gm. So we can see that the cell is very slim an due to metallic finish it looks very attractive also. weight is also not very much. So it is very easy to handle. Key pad is also of a optimum size. So...

Review of Nokia 6300

Nokia N95 best mobile available in the market.

Advantages: Stylish look,GPS,stereo widening
Disadvantages: Nothin'.....

...The neat black finish of the new NOKIA N95 gives a royal and stylish look.Its more thicker when compared to the apple iPhone,but the new NOKIA N95 has more features than Apple iPhone.The interesting thing is that the dual sliding design,,its simply superb.The Wi-Fi connectivity of the phone is really impressive and the 3.5G support shows that the phone is future ready for the UK market.Its newly loaded feature of stereo widening addes a great stereo effect on the music.The new N95's camera is brilliant and feature rich.Even the0.3MP video calling camera does a great job.The phone is feature rich but the absence of a photo editting software is little bit dissappointing.The phone looks sturdy and it is well constuctwed.I don't think the slider will act up in future.The battery life of the phone is a small draw back but it is showing...

Review of the Nokia N95 mobile phone.

Advantages: Range of Features, Look and Feel, Durability
Disadvantages: Battery Life

...I have owned many mobile phones over the years, all with unique features and selling points. In my opinion the N95 from Nokia represents a step forward in mobile telecommunication design. Being young, male, and relatively technilogically savvy, mobile phones must have a certain something to appeal to me, and I'm glad to say that this model has it in spades. It is over a year since I purchased the model, and I have waited until now to write a review of the phone in order to ensure that I have a thorough understanding of it. Look and Feel The phone is a step away from the standard typical Nokia designs and embraces a more modern appearance. The surrounding casing of the screen itself is decked out in glossy black and the main phone console itself is designed in a stylish black plastic. The buttons are tactile and easy to press...

Review of Nokia N95 8GB

Nokia N97 - 'The new iPhone'

Advantages: 32gb Internal Memory, Nice Looking, Full QWERTY Keyboard, 5 MP Camera
Disadvantages: A Little Bulky, Price, Small Processer Makes The Phone Slow

... Intro Being the previous owner of a Sony Ericsson w850 for over 2 years, I decided that it was time for a mobile phone upgrade. I had a few different phones in mind, the Apple iPhone, Nokia N97, Nokia 5800 Xpress Music and the HTC Touch Pro, in the end I chose to buy the new Nokia N-Series phone. It was a clear choice over the iPhone because of the price, also you do not have to buy the phone AND pay a monthly contract fee with the N97. Buying The Phone After choosing the phone I decided that I wanted to switch to contract instead of pay as you go. At the time the phone was only available on the Vodafone and Orange networks, but I believe that you can get it on most major networks now. I had previously been with Orange and wasn't too impressed with their service, so I chose Vodafone, they also had better deals for the N97...

Nokia 6700 Classic Mobile Phone Reviewed

Advantages: It feels solid and robust owing to its slender design and stainless steel construction.
Disadvantages: TFT display of 2.2 inches; 320 x 240 pixels is small for mapping purposes and web browsing

...I received the Nokia 6700 classic (all in black, including keyboard and backplate) as part of an Orange contract upgrade. The main features of the phone can be found on the Nokia website at http://www.nokia.co.uk/find-products/all-phones/nokia-6700-classic so I'll concentrate on the phone as a user. Over the years of owning a number of mobiles ranging from Motorola, Samsung, Philips, Sony Ericsson and Nokia I have generally preferred Nokia, mainly beacuse of the simplicity of the S40 user interface, which is very user friendly and simple in approach. The main points about the Nokia 6700 classic in my opinion are listed below: Good Points It feels solid and robust owing to its slender design and stainless steel construction. The kepad is easy to ease, so too is the navigation button. The built in GPS receiver and maps are...

Review of Nokia 6700 classic

Review - The Nokia N97 vs The iPhone 3GS

Advantages: Good Looking, Durable, Huge Memory, Very Very Good QWERTY keyboard
Disadvantages: Tiny processor leading to lag and application crashes

...for people with smaller hands, despite this the N97 looks and feels solid and well made. Unlike the majority of mobile phones which incorporate a QUERTY keyboard into their design, the QUERTY keypad itself is a complete success. Despite the room taken up by a directional pad on the left hand side, the buttons are well spaced, so even those with larger fingers won't end up pressing two or three at the same time. Performance & Interface The N97 has a very satisfying 32GB memory, on top of which can supplemented with a microSD card by a further 64GB. Anyone who is familiar with recent Nokia handsets will be aware of the Symbian S60 OS, which in the N97 has been revised for the fifth time, sadly though, not completely successfully. There has been a noticeable improvement since the N95 and N96, but the reoccurrence of lag...

Review of Nokia N97

Nokias most recent attack on i-phone succes or failure

Advantages: memory
Disadvantages: touchscreen

...as a owner and user of the nokia n97 i can say i am overall very happy with the improvements that nokia have made on previous models i.e N96 and N95. Lets face it all of us who went from owning an N95 to what nokia seem to believe was a better model (N96) were extremely dissapointed as although looking good on paper the N96 failed to meet the standards of its pre- deccesor but i am glad to say nokia have redeemed themselves on the launch of the N97. There have been many improvements made on previous models i.e the processor is alot faster and the slow transitions between menus has been completely iradicated due to the massive 32Gb memory which can still be increased to a huge 48GB by the handy memory slot tucked away under the rear cover of the phone. Another improvement on previous models is the slider mechanism after a few minor issues...

Review of Nokia N97

The iphone's competition, Nokia 5800!!

Advantages: Full bluetooth, great sound, wifi, 8 gig storage (expandable) Touch Screen and great screen size.
Disadvantages: Touch screen responsiveness is a bit tedious.

...own plus sides. As there is different keyboard input methods. One gripe i do have about the nokia 5800 is the fact that working applications on the device are few and far between right now. Spent a fair few hours online looking for downloads for the first S60 V5 touch screen OS. It has its own built in GPS device, It can be used with your mobile network for when using apps like google maps, or it can be used as a normal in car Sat Nav system with voice guided turn by turn system. The digital camera with carl zeiss auto focus lens and flash are excellent in daylight taking pictures and it can geo tag your photographs like the Apple iphone can. This means you can upload your photos to flickr and on your profile next to the photo will be a map from google telling you exactly where the photo was taken, perfect for when you been...
