Nokia N70 |
A Silver styley beast with all the bells and
whistles.
|
The Finnish maker continues to churn out new models like there's no
tomorrow, and the Nokia N70 is its most recent addition. Not only
compact but also a pleasure to behold with its classy looks and
stainless steel bezel surrounding the screen and keypad - the Nokia N70
is feature packed.
Steely Eyed!
The Nokia N70's large 262K colour screen is excellently crisp and clear
with its 176 x 208 pixels.
A nice touch is the adjustable brightness which ranges from pitiful to
blindingly bright and an ambient light sensor provides the finishing
touch.
You'll also love the keypad of the N70, which sports a comfortable
backlight for all the right buttons in all the right places and sizes -
providing excellent tactile feedback and very muted audible feedback.
The phone comes with 2 cameras, both a front-mounted 0.3 Megapixel
camera and a 2 Megapixel rear camera protected by a sliding cover. It delivers very impressive images and thus is great for both video recording and video calls!

Another little nugget included with the N70 is a stereo FM radio,
letting users tune in to the airwaves should their onboard music
collection be stretched thin - a quite likely scenario given the 30 MB
of internal memory found on the N70.
As we've come to expect from Nokia, voice quality and signal reception
proved outstanding in the N70, and we're thrilled to see Nokia finally
introducing speaker independent name dialling. While it's not quite a
Blackberry, features like the voice recognition give the N70 a real
lift.
What's in the box?
Fitted with the usual assortment of Series 60 applications, the N70
shares both the strengths and weaknesses of so many of its predecessors
on the software side.
With general performance being snappy, the smart phone impresses with
high quality PIM and messaging software, also adding a very apt suite of
productivity applications in the Microsoft Office compatible Quickword,
Quicksheet and Quickpoint trio as well as an Adobe Acrobat viewer.
As with the 6680, the N70 also runs the 3rd release of Series 60, and
as such incorporates an e-mail client supporting scheduled retrievals,
the subscription of IMAP subfolders and a range of attachments including
.ZIP files
The N70 battery life is also exceptionally good despite being tested
with heavy 3G use; a couple of days and in some cases more could easily
be squeezed out of this particular smart phone - which is fantastic!
Summary:
Despite being an otherwise excellent handset, the Nokia N70 struggles
to measure up as a business phone mainly as a result of its inability to
properly work with documents - for which its keypad and medium
resolution screen are to blame.
Poor synchronisation capabilities further worsen matters, yet there is
no denying that the N70 hosts excellent document viewing software, as
well as rock-solid connectivity, good battery life, the ability to
easily expand memory and a 2 Megapixel camera which delivers impressive
results.
