Blackberry 9500 Storm

The final chapter of the Blackberry Storm review is here, on the previous chapters of this review we explored different aspects of the Blackberry Storm. In this last chapter we will give our final focus, the summary and what exactly we think about this device.


The Storm has a bad reputation, most people think it is ''not that good'', it's a ''rumor'' that keeps running from mouth to mouth. But we believe the exact opposite, the Blackberry Storm we had, performed excellently.


The device is just solid, not only literally because of its excellent build quality but also its OS performance, it's one of the most balanced OS we ever used. It has everything it needs: easy to use, perfect balance between eye-candy transitions and real usability, and most important of all, a powerful intuitive OS. Some complicated tasks such as configuring an e-mail account are really easy to complete on the Storm.

We also loved the ability of the Storm to be multimedia-ready out-of-the-box, the 8GB memory card and the headset bundled let the user utilise the Storm as a main multimedia device right after buying it. The 3.5mm audio jack lets a user plug any pair of headset one normally uses and the music player has multiple equalizer options. All in all, music experience is great.


The Storm also lets the user easily configure any Bluetooth headset. The video playback on the Storm is also very nice because of the size of the screen, the 3.25 inches are more than enough to watch a full movie.


The Browser in the Storm is generally good, the Storm renders web pages just like a computer does. For really small links the Storm has a cursor mode, which makes it very easy to click on really small elements on web sites. The browser does not support Flash unfortunately, and it also freezes for some time while the page is loading. Generally it is a good web browser but there are better ones, such as the S60 Browser on Nokia phones for example.


The Storm has a pretty fast 3G connectivity, YouTube videos don't freeze and the pages render pretty fast, the only feature that the Storm needs is Wi-Fi, but for some unknown reason it is not there.


The clickable screen system has definitively been a huge success, some people have problems with the clickable screen but generally on most of the devices it works pretty well. RIM achieved what is the hardest part on the process, the user approval. People like this new clickable screen, as soon as they try it. The keyboard is standard, a good keyboard but nothing special, physical QWERTY keyboards are still a better option for heavy texters.


To prove and achieve a conclusion on the Storm I wish to add the opinion of a person who is not a phone-savvy person, just someone who uses an average phone but is a potential future user of smartphones. I did a small test with our Blackberry Storm, I lent it to a friend for an entire day, the only condition was that he had to tell me exactly what he thought about the device at the end of the day. At the end of the day he told me exactly what he thought about the device:

''First of all, I love the design. The Storm is a really good-looking device. The clickable screen is also awesome because it lets me press that little thing on the screen and be sure of pressing it before attempting to. I also like the way the menu is organized, the black boxes look awesome and is very easy to find what I am looking for. I love watching YouTube videos on the Storm, the screen is very good for that purpose. Bad thing is that the battery has been going down very quickly but is probably because I haven't stop using it. I think is a great device, there is no way to go wrong with the Storm''


Generally he gave positive feedback, he was concerned because of the battery. All I have to say for the battery is that it will last one day, but is imperative to charge the Storm every night to use it the next day.


In conclusion the Storm is a good device, I was impressed by its performance, as my friend who is not a tech-savvy person said ''There is no way to go wrong with the Storm''.

Nokia 2710 navigation

Nokia 2710 navigation edition
Mobile phone navigation has just changed forever with the announcement of the Nokia 2710 Navigation Edition. With Nokia Maps pre-loaded, along with local maps for the region it’s on sale in, this is the most affordable navigation device ever to come out of Nokia. With an estimated retail price starting at €110 navigation has never been so affordable.
This device is aimed at the developing world, but that isn’t to say it won’t be making an appearance in the developed world either. Thanks to the on board GPS and digital compass, this device is as at home in the city as it is in the country. On board maps are accompanied by turn-by-turn driving navigation with full voice guidance. In selected countries, the device will ship with local maps, stored on an included 2GB memory card, so users won’t even have to go online to access maps.
The Nokia 2710 Navigation Edition will also come with a car charger and a car cradle (pictured above) along with a lifetime navigation license. The GPRS handset boast a 2.2-inch screen, 2-megapixel camera and enough storage for 1,000 phonebook entries. It also sports Ovi Mail and Instant Messaging and it’ll keep the tunes turning with an MP3 player and FM radio. It also has a 3.5mm AV connector. The device will go for up to 18 days between charges in standby mode and will give up to four hours and 20 minutes talk time.

Expected to ship in the second quarter of 2010, the device will retail for an estimated €110.

LG's pico projector

LG's pico projector-packing WinMo eXpo outed for AT&T



Hey -- what's that? Oh right, it's the LG eXpo, the slider with a pico projector jammed inside. Among other things, the full QWERTY slider's packing a 1GHz CPU, a 3.2-inch touchscreen, a 5 megapixel camera, a microSD slot, and of course that removable Texas Instruments projector. The just-announced handset bears quite a strong resemblance to the Monaco we heard about way back in May -- though from the looks of it, its lost all of the brassiness we were so fond of. The eXpo runs Windows Mobile 6.5, and it will hit AT&T on December 7th for $199 after a mail in rebate with a two year contract -- plus an additional $179 should you choose to opt in on that projector.


Today LG and AT&T introduced a new Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphone, the eXpo. The device's defining feature is a removable Texas Instruments DLP pico projector, which can be used to share movies...er...PowerPoint Presentations when on the road.


This is an interesting device. Pico projectors are nothing new, but we have yet to see them become widely available on mobile phones, especially in the U.S. That the pico projector is detachable is nice, because according to the photos I've seen, it adds significant bulk to the eXpo. The projector weighs in at 1.8 ounces and is small enough to fit into the palm of your hand, and can project content a distance as far as eight feet. You're not going to be sharing movies drive-in style at the office...yet.



The eXpo comes with the usual set of smartphone specs. It runs WIndows Mobile 6.5 professional and has a 3.2-inch touch display. It is a sideways slider that has a full QWERTY keyboard for messaging. It comes with dedicated buttons to launch applications such as the browser.

Other stats include a 5 megapixel camera with flash and video capture. It supports microSD cards up to 16GB, and includes GPS.


As if the pico projector isn't enough temptation for you, the eXpo also brings another unique feature: a fingerprint sensor. AuthenTec has been making fingerprint sensors for ages, but this is the first time I've seen one on a device released to the U.S. market. The fingerprint swipe sensor should please enterprise IT admins, as it provides a whole new level of security for the device. The sensor also doubles as a navigation control, allowing users to move the cursor about the screen as if it were a mouse.


The last interesting tidbit of info about the eXpo is that it will support AT&T's 7.2Mbps HSPA 3G technology when it becomes available in Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles and Miami later this year.

Nokia N810 Internet Tablet WiMAX Edition

Posted by Anonymous On 10:20 PM 0 comments

Ushering in the next generation of wireless broadband devices, Nokia (NYSE: NOK) today unveiled its newest Nseries device, the Nokia N810 Internet Tablet - WiMAX Edition, Nokia's first device engineered to take advantage of new wide-area high-speed mobile WiMAX networks. This pocket-sized device lets consumers enjoy an open Internet experience, allowing for access to the full Internet without barriers, while on the go. The Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition is the latest iteration of Nokia's popular line of Internet Tablet products. For the first time, the power and convenience of the Internet Tablet platform is combined with next generation wide-area wireless broadband capability, allowing users to easily and quickly access all of their favorite Internet services beyond local area hot spots. The Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition is expected to be available in the United States during the summer of 2008 in areas where WiMAX connectivity is available.

WiMAX is a standards-based wireless broadband technology that delivers an open Internet experience similar to that of fixed broadband technologies with typical data download speeds of up to 2-4 Mbps per user with peak download speeds of up to 10 Mbps. Unlike current single point local area technologies like Wi-Fi which have a range of a few hundred feet, WiMAX networks consist of a number of interconnected base stations, each with a radius of up to 2-3 miles, that allow for handoffs from one base station to another as users move about a region or metro area. Additionally, WiMAX networks integrate technology designed to maximize the quality of service for each subscriber.

"By delivering the kind of open Internet experience that consumers previously only expected on a desktop PC, the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition is a compelling example of how next generation broadband wireless technology will not only change the way people think about the Internet, it will change the very nature of the Internet itself," said Ari Virtanen, Vice President of Convergence Products for Nokia. "Much in the way that the evolution of the fixed Internet from dial-up to broadband enabled a host of new Internet services and changed people's expectations of what an Internet experience should be, the transition to a broadband Internet experience set free from the constraints of a fixed network will spark the next wave of new mobile Internet services, and will forever change the perception of what the Internet can be."

Along with a full featured web browser, powered by Mozilla, that takes full advantage of the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition's large 4.13 inch touch screen and slide-out QWERTY keyboard, a variety of popular web-based services are also supported. Many of these applications can be found on Nokia's dedicated OS 2008 User Site. To keep connected while on-the-go, a number of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and Instant Messaging (IM) clients are available, including Skype(TM), Google Talk(TM), and Gizmo5, which can also take advantage of the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition's built-in web cam for video calls. A client for the popular Rhapsody online music service is also available, transforming the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition into a portable jukebox with millions of songs available to enjoy at a few taps of the screen. Beyond these well-known services, an active developer community has also emerged around the Linux-based Internet Tablet platform, creating additional applications - from games to productivity tools.

A number of additional features further enhance the utility of the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition. With built-in GPS, the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition can easily transform itself into a fully featured personal navigation device, complete with real-time on-screen maps. An integrated media player and 2 GB of internal memory, expandable to a full 10 GB of memory with the addition of an optional microSD memory card, allows the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition to store and play back a large library of music and video content. When not in range of a WiMAX network, the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition can also access the Internet over Wi-Fi or via conventional cellular data networks by pairing to a compatible mobile phone via Bluetooth technology.

Also being introduced with the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition is the newest Internet Tablet operating system. This new upgraded OS2008 introduces useful new features to the platform, including an enhanced e-mail client, support for Chinese character rendering in the browser and RSS feeds and Seamless Software Update functionality to eliminate manual software updates, making periodic updates of the operating system quick and easy. While standard on the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition, current owners of Nokia N810 and N800 Internet Tablets with earlier operating systems will be able to upgrade their device to the revised operating system for free during the second quarter of 2008.

Nokia 5330 Mobile TV Edition

Posted by Anonymous On 10:13 PM 0 comments

Nokia today announced the Nokia 5330 Mobile TV
Edition, an entertainment hub that combines mobile broadcast TV
(DVB-H), social networking, music and gaming in one compact 3G
device. With mobile broadcast TV consumption on the rise - by 2012
there will be over 300 million people worldwide watching TV on their
mobile phones - this handset offers easy access to anyone wanting to
enjoy an exceptional live, on-the-move TV experience.

Nokia vice president Mark Selby said, "The introduction of the Nokia
5330 Mobile TV Edition responds to the arrival of DVB-H broadcast
mobile TV networks in new markets and offers an affordable device for
new and existing customers alike. Customers are increasingly watching
a variety of programmes on their mobiles, such as drama programs,
news and sport, for a longer period of time. The Nokia 5330 Mobile TV
Edition has the sound and image quality to hold audiences captive."

Watch TV. Anywhere.
Thanks to the Nokia 5330 Mobile TV Edition's DVB-H technology,
programs burst through the QVGA 2.4" screen in full-colour, crystal
clear, sharp images. Plug in 3.5mm headphones for personal viewing or
use the loudspeaker option to share the experience with friends and
family.

With one-click access to live broadcasts, the Nokia 5330 Mobile TV
Edition can pick up the best channels around. Set reminders for
favorite shows to make sure key episodes aren't missed and create
personal channel lists with Nokia's innovative Electronic Program
Guide (EPG) for a truly tailored mobile broadcast TV experience.

The Nokia 5330 Mobile TV Edition provides broadcast picture quality
while the headset acts as an antenna for outstanding reception, so no
blank screens or interference during those all important moments.
Long battery life gives up to six hours of DVB-H usage; enough time
to watch three football matches - or six episodes of a soap opera -
before recharging. The Nokia 5330 Mobile TV Edition will retail for
155 Euros before taxes and subsidies.

Franklin Selgert, Chairman, Broadcast Mobile Convergence Forum said,
"It is essential for DVB-H service providers to have a variety of
devices capable of serving the mass market. Having a complete
portfolio of handsets is pivotal for the commercial success of mobile
TV. The new Nokia DVB-H enabled mobile phone, the Nokia 5330 Mobile
TV Edition, is a great addition to the current portfolio of broadcast
TV-capable handsets."

Catch up with friends. Anytime.
The Nokia 5330 Mobile TV Edition comes with all the latest social
networking software, making it simple to stay in touch with friends
via Ovi Contacts, Facebook, MySpace and YouTube. Post status updates
for friends and family to follow or instant message (IM) them via
Windows Live(TM) Messenger, Google Talk, Yahoo! Messenger, ICQ, AOL
and many others.

Capture photos and video clips, day or night, using the 3.2 megapixel
camera with 4x digital zoom and LED flash before uploading and
sharing favourite shots via sites such as OviShare and Flickr.
Alternatively, email them via Ovi Mail, Nokia Messaging, Windows Live
Messenger, Gmail, or Yahoo! Mail.

Play music. Whenever.
Accessing music and other apps is easy with dedicated music keys and
links to the Nokia Music store (where available). The Nokia 5330
Mobile TV edition is also compatible with Nokia's innovative Comes
with Music service - providing free, unlimited access to millions of
tracks. Download free music anytime, anywhere - and keep all the
music forever.

Keep up-to-date. Wherever.
Check out the choice of personalized media and applications in the
Ovi Store. A one-stop-shop for thousands of applications, games,
videos, podcasts, productivity tools, web and location-based services
and more, means personalizing the Nokia 5330 Mobile TV Edition is
just the touch of a button away.

Mobile TV. Roll-out.
Nokia and Nokia Siemens Networks work with more than 30 operators
worldwide on Mobile TV implementations. Commercial launches with
Mobile TV services based on DVB-H and OMA BCAST standards include
Austria, Finland, Ghana, Kenya, India, Italy, Namibia, Nigeria,
Netherland, Philippines and Switzerland. Additional commercial
launches can be expected during the next 12-18 month in more than 20
countries.

Stefan Schneiders, Head of Mobile TV solutions at Nokia Siemens
Networks said, "It is great that Nokia has affirmed its commitment to
DVB-H by launching the Nokia 5330 Mobile TV Edition. 2010 brings a
series of high-profile global sporting events and this is a good
opportunity for operators to create, drive and bundle innovative
mobile TV services based on DVB-H. In fact, during the 2006 World
Cup, Italy saw the launch of the most successful mobile TV
Broadcasting service in Europe."

Francois Theron, CEO at DStv Mobile comments: "DStv Mobile has rolled
out DVB-H networks in Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana and Namibia and we are
currently rolling out a number of new networks in other African
countries. Our success has been built around offering innovative and
premium television content at an affordable price while facilitating
access to inexpensive handsets which suit the requirements of
consumers in Africa. The introduction of the Nokia 5330 Mobile TV
Edition is a welcome development as Nokia is a trusted brand in
Africa and will further encourage television viewers to access
entertainment, sport and news on the DStv Mobile platforms."

Vincent Grivet, Vice President, Mobile TV TDF, France said "We are
very excited by the launch of the Nokia 5330 Mobile TV Edition. It is
a highly seducing and compelling device and will be the perfect
platform for introducing both European mobile users and operators to
a high quality and constraint free mobile TV experience. This is
exactly what the industry has been waiting for to accelerate the
broadcast mobile TV roll out, and we look forward to the successful
and fast distribution of this innovative device in our key European
markets such as Finland, Austria, Germany and France.

Vincenzo Novari, CEO at Hutch 3G, Italy, said: "As the largest
handset producer in the world, Nokia's announcement is real evidence
of their commitment to the development of the broadcast mobile TV
market. Networks, content and handsets made for mass consumer
consumption are the key ingredients for fuelling the market's
growth".

Erik Sylvestersson, Vice President Sales & Marketing at DNA Finland
said: "Live digital TV broadcasts over DVB-H networks is becoming
more accessible to more people. In Finland, we have found that sport
and news are the key drivers for broadcast mobile TV consumption
among consumers. People want to be able to watch the action as it
happens - rather than settle for highlight shows once they get home.
Consumers expect an exceptional on-the-move TV experience at an
affordable price, something the Nokia 5330 Mobile TV Edition is fully
equipped to deliver."

Notes to editors:

Compatibility with the aforementioned services may be limited to
certain countries.

Nokia's first commercial DVB-H device was the Nokia N92, launched in
November 2005. Nokia's DVB-H device range includes the Nokia N92,
Nokia N77, and the Nokia N96. In addition Nokia enables DVB-H
reception on multiple devices including the Nokia N97, Nokia N97
mini, Nokia N86 8MP, Nokia E75, Nokia 5800 XpressMusic and Nokia X6
by using the Nokia Mobile TV Receiver SU-33W.

Nokia 1661

Posted by Anonymous On 4:06 AM 0 comments

Providing a similar feature set to the Nokia 1209, Nokia's 1661 improves on its baby brother with a better quality display, a much thinner design and an FM radio. However, the smaller form factor comes at the cost of keypad size.

The Nokia 1661 mobile phone is much thinner than the Nokia 1209, so it slides easily into a pocket. At first glance, it's easy to mistake the Nokia 1661 for a more expensive mobile phone — the glossy black front fascia surrounding the display and keypad certainly looks the part, and the silver edging on the navigational pad is a nice touch. The red edging and grey back cover are bland, though, and the cover does creak slightly when pressed in certain areas, which raises some questions about its build quality. At this price, however, it's not a huge issue.

Unfortunately, the smaller size of the Nokia 1661 has resulted in a smaller keypad, which has thin and flat keys. The keys are separated by raised lines, but it feels a little cramped when composing text messages. Also hindering the use of this phone is the inclusion of a four-way navigational pad instead of the more common five-way version. This means the left selection key is used to choose items in the menu, so the controls take some time to grasp.

The Nokia 1661's display is larger and has a higher resolution than the Nokia 1209's, so it's easier to use. The screen still possesses poor viewing angles and can be hard to see in sunlight, but it isn't narrow and therefore displays more lines of text. The increased screen size also means a standard grid layout can be used for the main menu, and a simple list format for most of the submenus.

The features of the Nokia 1661 are fairly basic, with the standout feature being the FM radio. It also offers SMS messaging with T9 predictive text input (but no e-mail or MMS capabilities), a basic phonebook, a call register, and a few handy PIM functions such as an alarm clock, calculator, converter, spreadsheet, reminders, countdown timer, calendar and stopwatch. The flashlight at the top of the handset — activated by holding up on the directional pad — and the polyphonic ring tone composer are nice inclusions.

Like the Nokia 1209, the Nokia 1661's call quality is solid but not outstanding. Volume could have been a little louder, and it is difficult to hear if there is any background noise. Thankfully, our callers didn't complain about the outgoing sound, suggesting the microphone is of good quality. A downside is the lack of external volume controls, though the volume is easily adjusted using the navigational pad.Latest Nokia Phones Nokia Mobile Phones - Read reviews and latest features of Nokia Mobile Phone.

Nokia 1006

Posted by Anonymous On 3:45 AM 0 comments

Nokia has announced that, for this year's Consumer Electronics Show, it plans to include the showcasing of a wide portfolio of mobile devices, among which the coveted Nokia N97 mobile computer, along with the award-winning Nokia E71 and a series of new products that are meant for the North American market.

More importantly, we continue to raise the bar with compelling mobile experiences,” said Mark Louison, president, North America, Nokia Inc. “This week at CES, Nokia is demonstrating our leadership by again setting the industry benchmark – with a wide range of devices that are easy-to-use, with fun and collaborative services that consumers demand, like music, gaming, maps and media. It's an exciting time in our industry and we look forward to bringing more of these experiences to life in North America this year.”
The company announced that, at CES, it would also showcase a series of new technology advancements meant to enhance the user experience as well as to help consumers make environmentally-intelligent choices. The demonstrations include the Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) protocol, Easy Meet, a mobile communication and collaboration system allowing web conferences to be held from anywhere at any given moment. As a means to show its commitment for environmentally-friendly practices, Nokia has played the role of the worldwide sponsor of “Wild Ocean,” an underwater movie that shows how people can protect the environment.

“Nokia continues to be at the forefront of driving 'green thinking' and helping consumers make environmentally intelligent choices. We strive to educate consumers on options for recycling their old mobile phones, and at CES 2009 we will demonstrate the new Nokia Carbon Calculator – a mobile application that encourages users of devices, such as the new Nokia 6650 with AT&T, to offset the carbon footprint of their travels,” said David Conrad, head of Environment, Nokia North America.

“In addition to our green initiatives, education is also playing an important role, and our sponsorship of the film Wild Ocean is just another way in which we hope to educate the world that if we each do our part, we as a community can make a difference, making the planet a cleaner, greener and better place to live,” Conrad also added. iphone skal

Nokia 3600 Slide

Posted by Anonymous On 11:16 PM 0 comments

Nokia 3120 Classic

Posted by Anonymous On 2:12 AM 0 comments

With Nokia writing the mobile headlines with its trailblazing uber Nseries 'multimedia computers' it's sometimes easy to overlook its so called lesser models in the melee to grab one of its powerful elite smartphones.

We shouldn't forget the Finnish giant built its numero uno manufacturer rep on easy-to-use bread and butter blowers and the 3120 Classic is a prime example of Nokia's uncanny knack for rolling out well groomed everyman handsets.

In fairness, the 3120 Classic has lot more to offer than just the basic 'bread and butter' talk and texter, punching around the lower mid-range level with a tidy set of features including original flavoured 3G download speeds, microSD card slot, built-in music player and FM radio plus a two-megapixel camera complete with LED flash.

Like its fellow Classic clan members, the 3120's design is clean and uncluttered, if a little unremarkable, although its rounded tapered bottom makes it more elegant than some of its more rigid stablemates.

At 13.4mm thick and a nimble 85 grams, the 3120 is also very trim and lightweight, slipping easily and unnoticed into the pocket. Naturally, for a phone of this ranking there is a little creak and groan of plastic but the 3120 is, in general, soundly built.

The 3120 is clearly drunk on Nokia's famed user friendliness. Your thumbs will love the spacious keypad and sturdy joypad and it's brilliantly geared for speed texting. Similarly, the Symbian S40 UI is intuitive to work through with the homescreen highly customisable.

An exhaustive amount of popular functions (57 was the last count) can be added to the shortcut bar while there's even space below this carousel for three other features like calendar, appointments and web search.

Of course, if you want your homescreen free for photo wallpapering then you can just deactivate the shortcuts. To round off this personalisation party, the two soft keys can be customised to pretty much whatever function you desire.

With maximum 384Kbps 3G speeds onboard, web browsing is pretty nippy. It's made easier by the preloaded Opera Mini web browser that probably ranks as one of the better mobile browsers on the scene. It brilliantly repackages full fat web pages to load quickly and neatly fit smaller screens and with the 3120 only sporting a bright but average-sized QVGA-quality 2-inch display, its skills are very welcome.

If you don't know your outgoing server deets or proxy settings from your elbow then setting up email accounts can be a pain in the proverbial. Thankfully, the 3120 does all that tricky donkey work for you and setting up your personal POP and IMAP email client is a breeze. After we gave up our email address and password, our Google Gmail account was up and running in a flash.
The 3120's basic two-megapixel snapper is only really good enough for MMS, blogging and wallpapering. With no dedicated shutter key you'll have to set one of the soft keys to fire up the camera and keen snappers may be disappointed, but unsurprised, by a lack of autofocus.
If you like to play Mr. Tinkerman it does offer a sprinkling of photos modes including picture effects, brightness levels, self timer and a rather crude LED flash but really we wouldn't bother. Its video capturing capabilities are equally feeble, shooting in a maximum resolution of 352x288 pixels at 15fps.

The built-in music player and FM radio are decent performers and probably the best features on the 3120. Unfortunately we weren't able to really gauge the music player's true sonic talents because, criminally, no stereo headphones were bundled with the phone. If you want to hook up a pair via the 2.5mm socket then you'll have to visit the Nokia shop and shell out 15 quid for a pair of HS-47 earphones.

But overlook the headphone headache and the music player seems very capable with simple access to all of your tunes via the standard playlist, artists, albums, genres arrangement. A seven-strong equaliser, including two customisable settings, gives you options to funk up the audio while support for A2DP stereo Bluetooth means you can stream your music wirelessly via a compatible set of headphones or speakers.


The 3120 Classic brilliantly keeps up Nokia's winning tradition of solid 3G handsets like the 6233, 6151 and 6120 Classic. Not everyone craves the latest and greatest whizz-bang mobile innovations, so if you're in the market for a dependable, user-friendly but sleek 3G blower with a smattering of cool mobile features then the 3120 Classic definitely has your name on it.

Nokia 3110 classic

Posted by Anonymous On 2:05 AM 0 comments

Back in April I reviewed Nokia’s 6300 and was impressed with its simplicity, clean lines and usability. Now comes the 3110 classic, a tri-band handset with GPRS, EDGE and HSCSD. As I wrote this review the 3110 classic was available on Orange from free. None of the other major operators were listing it, but check when you read this for wider availability.


As the ‘classic’ in its name implies this is another attempt by Nokia at a straightforward, no-nonsense mobile phone. It takes much of what was good about the 6300 and builds it into a handset with a basic set of specifications that are sometimes below what the 6300 offered, sometimes above it.


That isn’t to say this handset isn’t without its surprises. The FM radio, for example, is a very welcome feature in a budget phone, and one that that Nokia should build into every mobile it produces. As soon as it came out of the box this looked like a handset I could live with. Styled in black with a couple of silver flourishes it is understated and not the kind of phone that shouts ‘steal me!’ whenever it is brought out for use. Sized at 108.5 mm tall, x 45.7mm wide and 15.6 mm thick it feels comfortable in the hand and at 87g it is no problem for the pocket.




Nokia has decided to prioritise the keys over the display and the latter is pretty small. I measured it at 1.7 inches corner to corner. Its 128 x 160 pixels are pretty rudimentary and the screen doesn’t have the definition that many other handsets offer. The 262,000 colours are welcome though, and the screen is bright enough to read outdoors.


Immediately beneath the screen enclosed in a lozenge shape are some familiar buttons. A navigation ring with central select button sits in the middle. The button itself is huge, the ring smaller but raised nicely from its surroundings so that using it is very easy. To its left and right are selection keys and Call and End keys. Those keys aren’t especially large, but the number keys are by comparison, massive. Usefully, the number keys are backlight, brilliant white when in use. Side keys don’t amount to much. There are volume controls on the upper right edge and that’s it.


All in all the screen/keys compromise may please the stubby fingered but irritate those who like screen intensive activities like web browsing, though having said that using the browser is not much fun.


Now, just like the 6300 I mentioned earlier, the 3110 classic runs Symbian’s S40 operating system. What this means is that while you don’t get the amazing range of applications and capabilities built in that S60 handsets offer there may be enough here to keep you happy.
Besides what I’ve already mentioned, Bluetooth and infra red are built in, there is a calendar, a todo list manager, an alarm clock, a notes application, calculator, timer, stopwatch and voice recorder. The messaging centre includes POP email support, and this handset plays music.

Nokia 2760

Without the speakerphone, however, the call quality is respectable.

Nokia 2600 Classic Black

Posted by Anonymous On 9:38 PM 0 comments

Nokia is no slouch when it comes to designing high-end cell phones, but the company's bread and butter remains simple handsets for making calls. That's where Nokia got its start, and that's where its focus remains for developing markets. The new Nokia 2600 for AT&T fits this mold perfectly. Though it offers a VGA camera and Bluetooth, this handset is all about communication. The design is simple and intuitive and the call quality is serviceable, but the phone's molasses-like menu interface was frustrating. The Nokia 2600 is $150 if you pay full price, but it's free with a service contract.


Design
The 2600 is a standard Nokia candy bar phone that's a salute to minimalism. It is clad in basic black with just an orange ring around the center column of keys to give it some individuality. The lines are straight and clean, but its tapered edges are a nice touch. The 2600 is 4.21 inches long by 1.84 inches wide by 0.79 inch thick and weighs 3.17 ounces. It is compact and portable, but the plastic skin feels rather flimsy.


The display measures 1.5 inches wide and supports 65,000 colors (128x128 pixels). Though that's a low-resolution display when compared with most other current cell phones, it's fitting for such a low-end phone. Graphics and photos aren't sharp, but colors are relatively bright and the screen isn't washed out. What's more, the icon-based menus are intuitive. You can change the standby mode font color and the font size and activate a power-saver mode.


The 2600's navigation array consists of a square silver toggle with a black OK button. Though it is decently sized and raised above the surface of the phone, it's also a bit slippery with a plastic feel. It didn't present us with any problems, though, and you can set the toggle to act as shortcut to four user-defined functions. Two soft keys and the Talk and End/power buttons complete the array. They have a spacious layout as well but they're flush and equally slippery. Also, we'd like a dedicated back key and a camera shortcut.


The keypad buttons are hit and miss. They didn't feel cramped, but they aren't very tactile. Similarly, while we like that the central column of keys is colored in gray, the backlighting could be brighter. We didn't suffer from any misdials, but rapid texting did feel awkward.
Like T-Mobile's recent Nokia 1680, the 2600 doesn't have a dedicated volume rocker, which means you must use the toggle to change the volume level during a call. That's rather inconvenient. On the right spine, you'll find the charger port and a 2.5mm headset jack. The camera lens and mirror rest on the phone's backside above the single speaker.



Features
The 2600 has a tiny, 200-contact phone book with room in each entry for five phone numbers, an e-mail address, a URL, a company name and job title, a formal name and nickname, a street address, a birthday, and notes. You can pair contacts with a photo and save them to caller groups, but only groups can be assigned one of the eight polyphonic ringtones.


The 2600 has a solidly low-end feature set, but it does include Bluetooth. There's no stereo profile, which really isn't needed on such a basic phone, but you can use Bluetooth to send files. Other features include a vibrate mode, text and multimedia messaging, a voice recorder, an alarm clock, a calendar, a to-do list, a notepad, a timer, and a stopwatch. You'll also find trial applications for Mobile Banking, WikiMobile, and My-Cast Weather.

The 2600's camera has a self-portrait mirror but no flash.

The VGA camera takes pictures in three resolutions (640x480, 320x240, and 160x120) and three quality settings. Other features include a digital zoom, a night mode, a self-timer, and a multishot option. It's a slim assortment of offerings, to be sure, but appropriate for a handset with a VGA camera. Photo quality is good for a VGA camera. Colors were relatively bright and there was minimal noise. On the other hand, you'll need adequate light since the 2600 doesn't offer a flash.

The 2600 has decent photo quality.

The camcorder is as basic as can be. It doesn't offer any editing options beyond a choice of clip length. Videos meant for multimedia messages are capped at 9 seconds; otherwise, you can shoot for longer periods in normal mode. Video was about what you'd expect from a VGA camera, which is to say pretty bad. The 2600 has about 10MB of user-accessible memory.
You can personalize the 2600 with a variety of wallpaper, screensavers, and themes. You can download more options and additional ringtones, from AT&T. The 2600 comes with demo versions of three games--Bubble Bash, Tetris, and Ms. Pac Man--but you can buy the full versions and additional titles.



PerformanceWe tested the dual-band (GSM 850/1900; GPRS) Nokia 2600 in San Francisco using AT&T service. Please note that as a dual-band phone, the 2600 will not work outside of North America. Call quality was decent--not spectacular but not bad either. The signal was clear and strong, and voices sounded relatively natural. The volume could be a bit louder, but the phone performed well for what it is.


On their end, callers said we sounded fine, though a few reported that the 2600 picked up an excessive amount of background noise. Even on our end, we had some trouble hearing the phone conversation in very noise environments. Similarly, automated calling systems could understand only when we spoke in a quiet place. Speakerphone calls were just OK. Since the speaker faces the rear of the phone, you should place the phone upside down for the best experience. But even then, the audio is muffled at the highest volume levels. Bluetooth headset calls were satisfactory.
Yet, we had more issues with the phone's painfully slow menu interface. When opening the main menu and when selecting certain features, we had to wait as long as 3 seconds for something to happen. It was not something we were expecting on such a basic phone and it definitely diminished our experience. Before we got used to it, we impatiently would press the OK button several times.



The 2600 has a rated battery life of 3 hours talk and 16 days standby time. We were quite impressed with the tested talk time of 11 hours and 54 minutes. According to FCC radiation tests, the 2600 has a digital SAR of 1.43 per kilogram.
