Nokia N70

…Is a great phone.

I’ve had the N70 a couple of days now and had the chance to have a proper play with it… sadly the mobile update onto here did not work, I know why… so should get it going soon.

It’s the little touches I like about this phone….

The keypad is only backlit when its dark, how cool is that?? It has a sensor so if you’re using the phone in dark/dingy conditions its backlit. Sweet.

Function keys and the quick menu can be customized putting the features I use most easily accessable.

Nokia datasuite has come a long way from my old support days… it sync’d my contacts up first time via bluetooth from my laptop (without uninstalling my ericsson s/w either) and has some nifty apps for cropping images to the right size for backdrops n stuff.

Camera quality looks good… hmmm… time to try video calling me thinks!

My only gripe is that there is a slight delay when flicking quickly through the menus, thats partly me being a speed freak though… I’ve never found a phone that can keep up!

9/10
