Nokia C5-03

Labels:

When he became the affordable touchscreen his popularity soared - affordable smartphones are hot right now. The Nokia C5-03 is the result of these two trends and at the same time it takes a lot of the C6-01 in terms of design, its price is much lower.

Nokia is a C5-03 grand-son of the bestselling Nokia 5800 XpressMusic and although this could be the last lap for Symbian ^ 1 (or Symbian S60 that old timers call it), he tries to provide the same level of satisfaction on the bang for the meter money.

All new Nokia-01 X2

Labels:

Build good access, a QWERTY keyboard and a touch of music: the Nokia X2-01 has the right ingredients to serve and entertain. And if you want to buy cheap, it's an offer that is hard to beat.

Nokia has long been the low end of their fortress and X2-01 should follow a strategy that has proven to work. The Nokia-01 X2 is a music phone for young people focusing on Facebook and email.

With its combination of features and form factor compared to the price, the Nokia X2-01 has a segment of its own. This is another foot soldier in the offensive from Nokia to become the world's leading manufacturers of QWERTY.

Key features
  • Entry level QWERTY messenger bar
  • Quad-band GSM/EDGE connectivity
  • 2.4" 256K-color QVGA TFT display with great sunlight legibility
  • VGA camera with QVGA video recording at 24fps
  • Series 40 UI, 6th edition
  • Stereo FM radio with RDS
  • Bluetooth 2.1 (with EDR)
  • Standard microUSB port
  • microSD card slot (8GB supported, 2GB included)
  • 3.5mm audio jack
  • Good audio quality

Main disadvantages
  • No 3G
  • Piss poor camera
  • No smart dialing
  • No USB charging
We are willing to overlook certain drawbacks. 3G is not essential in this price range and is therefore a good camera. The S40 interface is not the best looking feature phone, but could have been much easier to live with if she was smart dial, document viewer capacity some basic or multitasking.

Reducing costs is essential to the X2-01. Nokia obviously assumes the audience did not really need these things. The X2-01 is about simplicity and usability of the largest construction quality. This messenger of entry will not be disturbed by comparison.

N8 review for nokia lovers

Labels:

We just take for granted in the Nokia low-end or business class, but it seems to have lost the habit for mobile killer, short of royal blood. It is in the Nseries fix everything. The Nokia N8 may be the only adequate remedy. With such equipment, it's a smartphone, you'd be mad to ignore. To change, we are not talking about processing power or quality netbook loads of RAM. Nokia have made because of their flagship camera and advanced stuff like HDMI and USB On-The-Go.

Finnish engineers often like to make a point about Symbian being the most efficient resource-OS. We have seen the run reasonably fast indeed on slower processors. This time if it is Symbian ^ 3, so we will review it to believe it.


Key features

  • Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
  • Penta-band 3G with 10.2 Mbps HSDPA and 2 Mbps HSUPA support
  • Sleek anodized aluminum unibody
  • 3.5" 16M-color AMOLED capacitive touchscreen of 640 x 360 pixel resolution
  • 12 megapixel autofocus camera with xenon flash and 720p@25fps video recording
  • Camera features: large 1/1.83” camera sensor, mechanical shutter, ND filter, geo-tagging, face detection
  • Symbian^3 OS
  • 680 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 256 MB RAM
  • Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n
  • microHDMI port for 720p TV-out functionality
  • GPS receiver with A-GPS support and free lifetime voice-guided navigation
  • Digital compass
  • 16GB on-board storage, expandable through the microSD card slot
  • Active noise cancellation with a dedicated mic
  • DivX and XviD video support
  • Built-in accelerometer and proximity sensor
  • Standard 3.5 mm audio jack
  • Stereo FM Radio with RDS, FM transmitter
  • microUSB port with USB On-the-go support
  • Flash and Java support for the web browser
  • Stereo Bluetooth 3.0
  • Nice audio reproduction quality
  • Smart and voice dialing
  • Scratch resistant Gorilla glass display
Main disadvantages
  •  Symbian^3 is still behind Android and iOS usability standards
  •  No video light
  •  Camera interface is decidedly outdated
  •  Relatively limited 3rd party software availability
  •  No office document editing (without a paid upgrade)
  •  Video player has some issues
  •  Battery life is not on par with best in the business
  •  Battery is not user-replaceable
There are certainly a lot of pressure on Nokia N8. People are expecting more than likely the same guys who designed it. But the N8 was never meant to compete with the iPhone 4 or S. Galaxy least that's what Nokia will be happy to have us believe.

You see, the Nokia N8 is not who is the competition. This is not the business benefits of a smartphone, not the applications available. This is the best camera in the business. Now, we have to do with it. Again.
 
N8 already managed to put a dedicated digital camera to shame in our blind test in recent years. But it will take more than that to get the green light at the end of a full review. The camera is very impressive, but the overall balance and bang-for-money that matters most in our books here for the N8 better to have more ace up his sleeve.

All new nokia c7 review

Labels:

 The Nokia C7 did not intend to break the chain of command. It is just a N8 thinner, simpler and more affordable and comes with a more conservative style. The CSeries balanced received an accomplished leader. The specifications are impressive, but keep a respectful distance from the best Nseries.
 
The Nokia C7 always gets close to the N8, in some respects. It is obtained from the same lightning speed 3G Penta-band, a 3.5 "AMOLED capacitive touchscreen nHD, a 680MHz processor and 256MB of RAM, which are good figures for the efficient operating system Symbian.

Naturally, some things were left out. Get rid of this camera module has reduced the thickness swelling. But also on the Nokia imaging C7 is down "only" 8MP and fixed focus. However, the 720p video recording is always - as is the Wi-Fi b / g / n and Bluetooth 3.0. The internal memory has been halved, but 8GB is still a lot, since there is a microSD slot if you need to develop.

As always, the advantages and disadvantages in summary form and a quick head vs. N8 C7-to-head
 
Key features
  • Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
  • Penta-band 3G with 10.2 Mbps HSDPA and 2 Mbps HSUPA support
  • 10.5mm slim body
  • 3.5" 16M-color AMOLED capacitive touchscreen of 640 x 360 pixel resolution
  • 8 megapixel fixed-focus camera with dual-LED flash and 720p video @ 25fps recording; geotagging, face detection
  • Symbian^3 OS
  • 680 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 256 MB RAM
  • Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n
  • TV-out functionality (SD)
  • GPS receiver with A-GPS support and free lifetime voice-guided navigation
  • Digital compass
  • 8GB on-board storage, microSD expandable
  • Active noise cancellation with a dedicated mic
  • DivX and XviD video support
  • Built-in accelerometer and proximity sensor
  • Standard 3.5 mm audio jack
  • Stereo FM Radio with RDS, FM transmitter
  • microUSB port with USB On-the-go support
  • Flash and Java support for the web browser
  • Stereo Bluetooth 3.0
  • Excellent audio quality
  • Smart dialing and voice commands 
 Main disadvantages
  • Symbian^3 is still below Android and iOS usability standards (especially camera UI and web browser)
  • Camera lacks auto focus, oversharpens images by default
  • Relatively limited 3rd party software availability
  • No office document editing (without a paid upgrade)
  • Battery life is not on par with the best in business
 N8 over C7
  • Much better camera
  • Special video zoom
  • HDMI port with 720p video output and true Dolby Digital Plus support
  • 16GB built-in memory
  • Anodized aluminum body
  • Richer retail box
  • Easily accessible memory card slot 
  
The main advantages of the N8 is the camera and HDMI. 8MP fixed lens camera is not so bad after all, and HD video recording is still there. There are metal on the Nokia case C7 and regular TV-Out - SD resolution and stereo sound.

Moreover, it is thinner - something people will enjoy. And more importantly, it's cheaper, which is exactly the point.
