The good:Received the phone on May 15, 2012, and proceeded to put in my existing AT&T SIM card. Worked perfectly fine with my plan, and AT&T's HSPA network. Web browser is quite decent, and so is the included E-mail client (I have 2 mailboxes set up to pull from an Exchance ActiveSync account, and a Gmail IMAP4 account, and they both work quite well). The maps application is okay... voice guidance is definitely a nice perk to have, especially for free.The onboard SIP support integrated into the phone app is a MAJOR perk... in fact, it is the reason I switched to a T-mobile plan, with only 100 included minutes but unlimited texting and 5 GB of data. Using an SIP provider, I can place cheap / sometimes free calls over either WiFi or 3G (which is actually VERY decent on T-mobile's HSPA+ network over here... stable and low latency, and enough bandwidth for a G.729 IP call).The Bad:- Occasional random restarts -> I do NOT background much if anything myself, with the exception of maybe the mail daemon that has to run to pull my email. Nonetheless, I have occasionally had the phone just quit and reboot of its own free will, with no explanation as to why...- Network connectivity -> This is a MAJOR problem, and is plaguing Nokia 700 (and I think other Symbian Belle users) on T-mobile USA. I have gone through a Mobile Broadband SIM card, and a regular Monthly4G voice SIM card on my phone (both prepaid), but both have a peculiar issue where the 3G connection simply hangs / crashes (the entire 3G modem firmware basically completely crashes, leaving a seemingly good signal strength indication, but calls, texts, and data calls all fail to go through. I have tried deleting/re-configuring APN's, changing network mode, but the problem persists... the ONLY bulletproof solution is to reboot the phone completely. And yes, I DO check for software updates, which brings us to.... *drumroll*:- Software updates -> It seems that this phone, being an UNLOCKED and DE-BRANDED device DIRECT from Nokia still isn't worthy of the Feature Pack 1 upgrade, when da*n near half the Nokia 700/701/630's out there have gotten the update over-the-air / through Ovi Suite already. No such luck for me... both Nokia Ovi Suite and the on-board updates app repeatedly lie to me, saying that my software is in the latest version. Nokia seems as oblivious to this issue as to the one regarding the network connectivity issue...- Battery Life -> I have 2 push e-mail accounts, but beyond that, my usage is quite light (maybe 2 - 3 short calls/day, and a few texts, all done in NYC... a VERY strong signal area for the most part). I rarely if ever use the camera / video features, and about the only apps I use are the mail and web browser apps... nonetheless, the battery seems to have a tendency to run down completely in about 15 - 20 hours at the MOST (mind you, this with NO backgrounding of apps). Additionally, Nokia, I would sincerely ask you to FIRE the developer who thought it would be a smart idea to remove any numerical indication of battery life remaining (percentage? time? hello...?) About the only gauge I have to measure / estimate battery capacity is the HORRID graphical battery charge indicator on the top panel, and it is bloody inaccurate (I have tried calibration...). The Nokia Battery app from the Ovi store is marginally better, but pretty much ALL the battery apps disagree regarding the percentage of charge remaining... wonderful, isn't it?Nokia, if you're listening, PLEASE either push out an OTA software update to fix the network connection issues... the LEAST I expect when paying for an unlocked phone is that it can make, well, PHONE calls, and remain RELIABLY connected to the cellular network, without crashing something like 3 - 5 times per day for no good reason. If you cannot do this, the least your company can do is offer refunds and/or exchanges for other models (I for example an PERFECTLY willing to pay the extra cash for an upgrade to the N9, as from what I've read so far, at least its cellular radio firmware stack is not ridden with holes like swiss cheese...

The first nokia 700 I bought had the touchscreen pulling away from the body of the phone so I had to return it (Amazon has great customer service). Now that I've had my phone for a while (on T-mobile USA), here are some random thoughts:I bought this because it was important for me to have physical call and end buttons. If answering/ending without buttons doesn't bother you, then I'd go with iphone/android. (I am aware that you can sort of answer/end calls with hardware buttons, but the solutions are more half-baked in my opinion).The size is fantastic for me, but I prefer compact devices in general. The keyboard in portrait orientation is OK if you have small fingers. But installing swype makes texting in portrait mode easy and convenient.The vibration mode is really weak and hard to feel.Battery life is good. I can get almost 48 hrs of normal use (mostly calls/few texts/limited web surfing), and maybe 24-36 hrs if I'm using the GPS. I don't watch video or listen to music on my phone. I lose about 0.5% every hour on standby. I do active power saving, though. I keep my phone on GSM mode with wifi off unless I need the 3G/wifi for web access (I find EDGE to be workable, though). Your mileage will vary, of course. The options for turning on and off the network mode, wifi, bluetooth etc are so easy and fast that I prefer just keeping everything off unless I need something specific, to reduce power consumption.You can charge by micro USB in theory. But in practice, several of my previous microUSB chargers simply will not charge my phone, especially car chargers. I had to buy specific a nokia 700 charger (non-USB) for my car. I have found that most plug in USB sockets will work, though (the ones where you have to supply your own USB cord to insert in one end of the charger).The offline GPS is fantastic. Fast GPS lock, turn-by-turn navigation, all without using up data. Nokia maps is OK, but you need data access for the maps program to find some local things (e.g. fast food places) that aren't already in the offline database.One bothersome thing is that my remote locking feature simply does not work (i.e. you send a text with a pre-defined message to lock your phone if you misplace it, for example), so I have to keep my screen locked. This wouldn't be a problem normally, except when driving you're unable to use the phone then except by looking at it and using the touchscreen to unlock the screen (which I won't do). This wouldn't also be an issue, but you can't use voice commands unless the screen is unlocked as well. At least you can answer calls though. If you're on bluetooth, then this won't matter.That brings me to voice commands (initiate by long press of the call button). ugh. My old old samsung flip phone had far better voice recognition than this device. I can sort of make it work by using a fake robot voice with a pseudo-british accent. annoying but livable.The proximity sensor is good; no more face hanging up like I had with the iphone.The app situation is pathetic at best compared to android/apple. If you're an apps person, I would not recommend this phone (the OS is Nokia -formerly Symbian- Belle). You can see the available apps at the Nokia Store, and choose the correct phone. You'll see what I mean. If you can find the apps that you need for the 700, then this of course isn't an issue.The camera is adequate at best. I like having a physical shutter button. With fixed focus, anything closer than about 2 feet gets really blurred.Summary, if you want a very compact phone to use as a phone, that also has nice web access and great GPS, this will work well and is a great deal at about $200, carrier unlocked.Hope this helps

I bought my phone the first week of June. I needed an unlocked, contract-free phone and I wanted it to have manufacturer warranty, valid in the US. I discarded the "latest and greatest", either for their price, size or lack of US warranty, and started looking for a so called mid-range smartphone. My search was over when I found this one at Amazon for $204.I admit price was its top selling point. But I can tell you today without hesitation that I end up with much more than I bargained for because this is indeed a very good phone. In my humble opinion, it has excellent build quality, excellent call quality, comprehensive and easy to use software (not as fancy as an iphone but easy to use nevertheless), a full year Nokia warranty valid in the US, and the right price, size and weight. And it is a fast phone with an impressive display.Please keep in mind my opinion is determined by my specific needs, so when I say "comprehensive" is because I'm thinking about contacts, calendar, instant messaging, Skype, e-mail, MS office documents, web browsing, maps, 3G, Wi-Fi, voice commands and so on and so forth. I don't pay too much attention to other stuff like camera, video, games, music and the whole "social" thing (with the exception of Twitter, which I use as an alternative source of news), and even at this point I can say it is very easy to take and share pictures and video, and their quality is good, especially the video. And when I say "the right size and weight" is even more subjective: ladies wouldn't mind much about some extra inches and grams in their already overloaded purses, but when we, old-school (definitively no purse) gentlemen have to slip our phones in our pockets, then they do matter.Of course, it is not perfect. Some might find the screen to be too little for their sight or their hands. Other might find its battery life to be short.I have found myself wishing for bigger fonts in some applications, such as WhatsApp (it is my current understanding that only its iphone version allows selecting a bigger font). As for writing, is not really hard. The phone comes with a very good prediction and correction software that practically fixes every mistake and works in English, Spanish and French. Even so, it took me a couple of weeks to get used to the landscape full QWERTY keyboard. In portrait mode I discarded the QWERTY keyboard (way too little) and I'm using the traditional alphanumeric keypad, which allows me to write single handed, once again thanks to software. The phone automatically switches from alphanumeric keypad to landscape full keyboard depending on the way you hold it.As for battery life, so far I've always got home with some charge left in it, even in my busiest days, with lots of calls, messages and e-mails coming and going, but no YouTube, Facebook or Angry Birds. And for those of you who like to have their phone "up to date", a word of advice regarding the Belle Feature Pack 1 (FP1) software update: remember the old southern saying "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Some people are complaining about reduced battery life and some other problems after upgrading their phone to Belle FP1. I think the phone is fast enough as it is and there is no need to sacrifice battery life to get a faster phone, which seems to be the most appealing feature of this pack.So, briefly stated this is the right phone, for me. I hope this information help you decide if it is also right for you.

First off, I believe I may have gotten previous reviewer Stevie's returned phone (lol). I purchased mine through the Amazon Marketplace for $180 - darn good price for an unlocked pentaband phone, I think. I noticed the screen pulling away from the frame in the upper corner area. Debated whether to return it, but decided on a quick home remedy - a touch of glue applied very sparingly on the end of a toothpick and, voila, problem solved. There's a fellow on Youtube- Le55ons -who will completely disassemble, remove components, replace screen, reassemble and restart this phone in about 12 minutes. Now that'll give ya' confidence to perform your own repairs. Anyway, about the 700 itself...Simply put, this is a beautiful phone. Elegant and gorgeous to look at and to hold. I love the small size. Everyone these days has their face buried in their large brick-of-a-phone device, but that's not what I want. My wants and needs are few.I want an excellent PHONE, first and foremost. The ability to send and receive calls. Nokia handles all telephony duties easily and well. 'Nuff said. I have read of some people having issues with T-Mo 3G connectivity and/or freeze-ups and reboots with their Symbian Belle phone (not just the 700), but I have had absolutely no such problems in over 4 months of use. I believe the fix is a new Sim card from T-mobile, but I have not needed it.Secondly, MUSIC playing ability- including streaming of internet radio (real internet radio stations - not that Pandora crap!) Nokia is known for their music phones, and the quality of sound coming out of this little device (whether through headphones, cable to speakers at work or car stereo) puts my friends Androids and Iphones to shame. The Nokia store has a very good free Internet Radio app, but I use LCG Jukebox.Wi-fi works flawlessly and connects easily for music streaming or lite web browsing.The GPS is fantastic. I use it for trips and it tracks and displays my route well. I haven't used voice guidance so can't comment on that, but free REAL GPS for life is just amazing.Now, about the app situation: I feel that I have the apps that I need for a productive, useful and entertaining phone. I mean, does anyone REALLY need Netflix on their phone?!? I don't want to watch movies on such small screens. For that I have a 60" tv with 2 pc's connected via hdmi. A laptop or tablet for on the road. Ditto that for e-books.Data plan: When I got my first Nokia phone about 2 years ago T-Mobile was promoting the 5230 Nuron with a $10-a-month UNLIMITED data plan (real unlimited data- not this "$30 unlimited data = read-the-fine-print 4GB stuff they all pull now). With this Symbian phone T-Mo doesn't detect any change, and my plan is unaffected. Hallelujah!External lock key (I love this feature), physical phone buttons. Smooth, fast interface. Customizable. Multi home screens, each with different wallpapers if you like (I do).Downsides? The camera is the only negative I have. It is weak at best, which is why I am seriously thinking of upgrading to the 808 Pureview. But I will keep the 700 regardless.

I purchased this phone on a lightning deal to use with my Tru SIM card. It took a little manual fiddling with the settings to get the data working, but other than that, the change was smooth.My eyes aren't the best so I was a bit worried about the small screen size, but I haven't had too many problems.Pros:-- Free, built-in GPS service. I can use maps and text/voice navigation without turning on my data connection and paying for the data usage. Works much faster than Google Maps on Android, though you do need to download what you need ahead of time.-- Good power and data-saving features-- Easy to turn data and wifi on/off.-- Data tracker lets me set a limit on data usage, in case I forget to turn the data off.-- Easy to use software for PC sync (Nokia Suite)-- Easily slips into a pocket - I often forget it's there.-- UI is easy to use and customizable, very similar to Android-- Battery life is better than any of the Android phones I've had.-- I've had clear reception for voice calls, but I think that depends a lot on the carrier and your location.Cons:-- Small screen-size (obviously). This thing is tiny, but I like not having that extra bulk to tote around.-- Not a lot of available apps compared to Android or iOS-- Background processes can eat data quickly if you're not careful - not a problem if you're on an unlimited plan, but dangerous if you're paying for usage. Be sure to set up those usage limits, and to reset the limit before you turn the data back on.-- The OS seems to freeze at times. It usually resolves itself, but I've had to reboot occasionally-- Social apps are only so-so.To sum up, I'm very pleased with this phone, especially given what I paid for it. It was worth it for the built-in GPS alone.

FYI, this phone's data connection **appears to be very unstable with older SIM cards**, if you happen to be using T-Mobile USA, since recent Anna & Belle releases seemingly broke some 3G handling that affects T-Mobile USA users with several models of Symbian^3 phones.Please see comment with link to related Nokia support forum discussion for more details (couldn't post link in body of review per Amazon rules).I don't know if Amazon has a specific policy for halting sales on crippled/defective devices, but this seriously cripples the phone for everyday use, until Nokia releases an update to fix this issue.Update: SIM card replacement, newer design seems to have resolved data connection stability issues, as noted in my last comment in this thread.If you happen to run into data connection issues with T-Mobile USA, you may find that a newer SIM card fixes the issues.So, this phone is great, once the stability issues were resolved. The notifications feature in Symbian Belle is very nice, and also provides convenient access to settings for your data connection, wifi, bluetooth, and profile (normal, silent, etc...).Front-facing speaker is nice for watching videos without headphones, and the support for a variety of media formats is very nice... for example, I have a number of Xvid videos that work fine. I'm not generally a fan of the 640x360 resolution on Symbian^3 phones, but the smaller physical screen on this device results in a higher dpi than other models with physically larger screens.Support for ActiveSync makes this a nice work cell phone, if you happen to be using MS Exchange for calendaring, email, etc...Games performance is great... Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja are very responsive and look great on this screen.One other essential app is 'JoikuSpot' for using your data connection to provide a wifi hotspot for other devices in a pinch, and of course 'Swype' is great for texting on touchscreen-only phones.Wifi support also seems to be improved, vs previous Symbian^3 releases... I had an N8 and E7, before Symbian Anna was released in the US, and those phone seemed to have a problem with saving hidden wifi, and reconnecting automatically... but the Nokia 700 doesn't seem to have any issues with connecting/reconnecting to my hidden dd-wrt wifi, using WPA2-PSK, AES encryption, etc... and I'll see how it does with WPA2-Enterprise when I take this phone to work.The speed-dialing implementation is also nice, if you haven't seen it before on Symbian phones. You can basically just start punching in numbers/letters on the 0-9 phone keypad, and get possible completions of phone numbers and/or alphanumeric contact names, rather than bothering with browsing through the contacts app.Symbian Belle has some very nice improvements over previous Symbian^3 releases, and the people who love Symbian and unlocked phones will appreciate how much you can customize and tweak all kinds of settings to suit your own tastes.Finally, this is a pentaband GSM smartphone, compact, and streamlined, excellent design, the usual Nokia hardware quality, and aesthetics.

After month or so with the phone, I am really happy with it according to my criteria - in this order:1. I can use it as I please - any operator, any country, no contract. This is great for money, time and environment.2. it is not too expensive for unlocked, no contract phone with so much functionality3. it is phone by form factor - easily pocket-able and light not a huge screen brick/pad4. it is phone by battery life - lasts days, not hours like other smart phones. There are days when I do not use it at all. So what would be the point of charging it for the sake of it5. it can be charged over standard USB cable - great for travel/work/anywhere - no need to worry about where to get charger or your "special" cable.6. can sync with Outlook properly and without the need for network or on-line service. USB cable is ideal - simple and safe. Does calendar, notes, tasks. Perfectly replaces aging but excellent Palm pilots. There is no way many people can share calendar and tasks ... with anybody, even if they wanted to7. works just fine without persistent internet connection - and you can disable data usage in one place to control your bill. In this respect it is better than most smartphones - you disable network services and it stops communicating - no exceptions8. does maps and navigation off-line - This is absolutely brilliant about Nokia - just download the maps you need and it works and does not need any data. This is low point of Android .. in my opinion9. No nonsense, logical User interface (UI) - well done to Nokia for fixing the bloat. It was pretty frustrating on older phones. This UI honestly works better than anything I've seen, including ICS10. talks to any bluetooth headset/headphones and GPS receiver - no other phone I know of can just do this ... especially external GPS - which saves power and you can place the receiver better than phone.11. can talk to wifi network when needed, and reliably ... connects to any network. Even those bizarre hotel setups where other not full computer devices fail.12. runs Skype reliably when needed while travelingAnything else is just great bonus: uSD card, PDF, fantastic screen, document reader, calculator, convertor for imperial measures, .... app shop is basic, but has more stuff than I'd put on a phoneCamera is not that great ... got way better quality + auto-focus on relatively old 3Mp cheaper feature phone. Not a major problem ... it is phone, not cameraI can recommend it to anybody looking for nice and light phone ... not a monster ... Must say this Symbian rocks, I'm pleasantly surprised.

After waiting a year past my contract renewal for my wireless provider to offer a new phone which combines form with function, I've gotten completely disgusted with the oversized monster-phone phenomena. Who are they making these things for, Andre the Giant? I wanted a phone I could fit in my pocket, drop without breaking, use one-handed, etc. So I finally caved and simply ordered an older, outdated, no-contract phone, because apparently the only way to get compact is to hop in your TARDIS and go back to 2010.So far, despite the capacitive touchscreen (like many people with decent nails, I find having to use the surface of my thumbs to type be a nuisance, and far less efficient and precise), I'm liking this phone. It's intuitive, it sounds good, it's not dropping calls, and it fits in my pocket, purse, etc. It feels solid. I don't feel like it's a huge step up from my 5530, but if it gives me faster connectivity, it's worth it, especially on a goldbox deal.So why the missing star? The screen lifts off the phone. And this is the second phone (Thank you, Amazon, for being your own awesome selves when it comes to replacement!) But here's the thing; despite this...despite the fact that, from the box, the screen is clearly not attached securely....I'm still debating keeping this phone, because even if the screen FALLS OFF, it's still better than the bulky, fragile, cumbersome, unwieldy HTC One that I tried for two weeks.Pretty much because I can actually hold it securely one-handed, and fit it in my pocket.Jiminy f***balls, cell manufacturers. MAKE ME SOME SMALLER PHONES!

I chose the rating by balancing between my bias and what people would expect in a smartphone. I love Nokia, but it's not Android and it's certainly not iPhone OS.. With that said, obviously I would recommend this phone to anyone who likes Nokias. It's Symbian Belle, which is impressive. I honestly wasn't expecting much due to all the bad reviews of Symbian smartphones, but this one managed to impress me. Nokia does a great job creating Nokia software for the symbian phones, they are the reason why their phones are great.. NOT Microsoft.. it's Nokia that makes the good software (Windows phones)..I WOULD ALSO RECOMMEND this to anyone willing to try Nokia for a change, since Nokias are terrific phones and you do not need to worry about compatibility for certain GSM networks... they have great microphones and speakerphones, and any problems you have with hearing probably have to do with the phone on the other end.THIS PHONE (N700) has a problem with the glue sometimes not being properly done, the display will peel off and pop-up, this causes a problem with the proximity sensor. These phones are under warranty and you can get it fixed for free by sending it to Nokia repair locations. I personally superglued it and I DO NOT RECOMMEND THAT AT ALL!! I was lucky to get it right the first and only time I had.

I use the phone with ATT service in TEXAS and have used it in other countries were an 850/GSM network is available.I have been using nokia cellphones for the past 7 years without any major complaint. These are my pointers on the 700:The GOOD:1)Its touch-screen2)OS Symbian Belle3)Call quality4)OVI Map Navigation Turn by Turn A-GPS (Road and Walk!)5)720p Video (on a 5MP cam) @ 30 FPS6)Nice Quality Pictures7)Nokia APP Store (similar to Google play for Android or Itunes for iOS)the BAD:1)Insufficient battery life (When compared to a E-72 on WIFI standby Mode)2)Screen is not that wide (width smaller pinky length when placed over finger. Height is similar to middle finger length.)3)App selection "tapping" is a "pain" due to proximity of app-shortcuts4)Pictures on Amazon do not show true phone size.5)No front CameraOverall its a pretty nice phone to own. The size of the phone is exactly the same as Sony Xperia.If you want a BIGGER phone, then go ahead and purchase the Nokia LUMIA Line or the N9 (Or go extreme with Samsung sII or SIII). I wouldve given anything to have a better battery-life spec. It seems that every time you use the phone, you have to be checking if the battery is at least 40% full. If you leave it overnight at 40% you wont have any battery life for the next day. Guaranteed. I never had this issue with other phones.I have not tested it on All-day Data Plans (GPRS/EDGE/3G networks) due to my SIM restrictions (locally and internationally). You would, probably, have battery-life issues with this type of connectivity. Almost certain.But if you only use the phone for general use and WIFI connectivity: then go GET IT!

First off, I had high hopes purchasing this new nokia. Ive purchased another nokia off amazon once only to find out it had horrible call quality. The speaker would make a clicking noise and cut out the audio every 5-10 seconds. So I was very skeptical about taking another chance on a nokia here. I have always loved the simplicity, design and sleeky smallness of nokia devices and this device is no exception. I just receieved this phone today and upon first opening it up you are impressed with the build of this phone. its so ergonomic and just feels perfect in the hand. It was exactly what I was expecting. However, after starting it up and putting in my t-mobile sim card, I noticed the screen dimming itself on its own. Discovered there was a light sensor at the top near the speaker that dims the screen significantly when no light is detected. My lamp was on in my room so i had a constant source of light but it was almost like the sensor couldnt tell if it was light or dark in my room. My lamp isnt very bright in my room but it still provides enough light that the screen shouldnt be dimming like that. Also, when it dims, the colors on the screen turn really bland and get really dark, not sure if its a defective device but its really disappointing nonetheless. And the worst part is, THERE IS NO SETTING FOR IT! looked all over and there is no display setting whatsoever to change it from dimming when its dark. Whats the point of having this beautiful clearblack amoled display if you cant experience it when its dark?? Also the call quality resembles that of the last nokia i bought here, the speaker seems to make a cliking type noise every so often while on a call. Im thinking it could be because these phones will only operate on T-mobiles 1900 and 3G frequency (I dont use 3G). Other than that this phone is about perfect. The OS is far behind apple and android but Web browsing is snappy and screen is responsive, although a little cramped when trying to text. The camera is garbage for pictures but it does record good HD video. Overall, nokia had the right idea with this phone but there are major downsides with it and it didnt impress me enough to keep it, Im returning it asap. If your willing to spend $250+ for a smartphone dont get a nokia, at least until they come out with better all around phones and a better OS. Stick with apple or android!

First of all, if you haven't see a Symbian phone in the last year you are in for a surprise. The fiddley S60 interface of the mid-2000's is gone. The new Symbian Belle (Feature Pack 2) looks more like Android than anything else, and it is built from the ground up for touch.This little baby slips in a shirt pocket and you'll completely forget that it's there. You have all the power of a top tier smart phone - apps, web browsing, total integration of e-mail/calendar/contacts whether you are on Google, Yahoo, Hotmail, or corporate MS Exchange. All in a package that's about the size of two matchbooks stood end-to-end.For US customers - this phone will work on the fast 3G+ networks on both T-Mobile and AT&T - so take your pick. (These are the networks which the carriers commonly call their "4G" networks. Not to be confused with LTE - which this phone doesn't have.) I regularly get 2 to 4 gbps speeds on T-Mobile, just to give you an indication of what is possible.Another plus is that the reception on this phone is way above average. Places where an HTC phone can barely hold on to a signal, will be rock solid with three bars on the Nokia.Yes the screen is small (that's the point of the phone), so don't buy this as your primary means to browse the internet. Instead, download the Jokiu hot spot application and use this to provide a wifi signal to your laptop and do your browsing there.For me, this is the perfect second phone. So light, I don't even have to think about whether to bring it - it's always with me.

Nokia is loosing their business by making this kind of cheap phones. Atleast they lost my business.I loved Nokia Phones in past and wanted to go for them once again. I bought Nokia c3-01 touch and type phone before buying this one. The phone was nearly perfect but the only thing that bother me was i hear a ditch-click sound during calls after every couple seconds or minutes (irregular timing). Amazon replaced the phone with another one and the same result. Even Nokia could not fix that. I returned that phone. I then bought this phone Nokia 700. This was the worst phone i ever bought. There was a lots and lots of problems and returned the next day. The phone was really nice in terms of design and looks but had a screen popped up from top. Sensors were not working, screen goes blank when on calls so there is no options to do anything other than talk. you cannot even turn on the speaker as the screen is blank during calls.This phone is worth 0 star. I gave 1 star and that is for Amazon. I love Amazon and their prompt services. I recommend Amazon, but never buy this phone from any source. Now since i got 3 bad experiences, i will never buy Nokia phones in the future.

After have a C3-01 this was my best upgrade cell phone, Purchased 3 Month ago, i`m very glad with the impressive quality of the plataform Symbian Belle. After update my cell to FP2 Belle is definitely the best Symbian version by far. thanks to the decent 1.3GHz processor, the gorgeous ClearBlack screen, the colours pop beautifully. The contrast is sharp and, as you might expect, blacks are deep. It's truly a delicious screen, despite the small size.VerdictBelle Feature Pack 2 is likely to be the very last major update to Symbian OS and it's a bit of a 'curate's egg' if I'm honest. I'm glad it's out, there are plenty of splendid features, but there are weak points to the whole OS that remain weak and there are silly bits missing (e.g. auto-correct in the keyboard) that really need patching via Sw_update sooner rather than later.Does Belle FP2 take Symbian to the same level as iOS, Android and Windows Phone in terms of user interface speed and fluidity? Sometimes. Is Symbian's UI a showstopper, Absolutely not. The OS shows its age occasionally, but Belle FP2 is largely a smooth and pleasant experience, especially if you know what you're doing and you fill in some of the weak points with third party applications: Opera Mobile, Gravity and so on.

I love this phone. It is small and compact which is a plus and a negative. My hands are big so texting with the phone vertical is difficult for me so I text while the phone is horizontal. I love some of the features it has like holding down the lock button will turn on the flashlight (only nokia phones do that) and the GPS. The GPS is a big plus for me. It has maps for pretty much the whole world and you do not need to pay for data or extra services. My biggest gripe about android phones and iPhones is that you must pay for data if you use maps or GPS on those phones. Camera is sub par as it is a fixed focus phone meaning if you get to close to the subject that it gets blurry. I love how smooth symbian belle is even though app support is sorely lacking. If you are an app man then Android and iOS is the way you should go. Battery for me as an average user of calling, web browsing, music, texting last me 2 days per charge. Battery is on the weaker side if you are a power user. I have used this phone for 5 months now and love it. I just wish that this phone could be coupled with a slightly larger display like the nokia N9 which is about 4 inches.

Phone - excellentGPS - just perfect. connects in a couple of minutes and the download of the free maps is easyDesign - small and slim enough to fit in my wallet, so when I am looking for my wallet, I could simply call my phone from someone else's phone.Web and e-mail - works just fine, even though I almost never use those (except for downloading maps which does not require me to type anything). I find reading and responding to e-mails on a smartphone sort of nonsensical. Real, full-blown PCs are everywhere (at least in the office and at home, places we spend most of our time at) and it is SO much easier to see and type on full-size keyboards. If there is an urgent message, people would normally call. No one who sends an e-mail should expect an immediate response anyway. Similarly, I prefer reading The New York Times on my laptop's screen which is more pleasant than staring at my phone whose raison d'etre is different.Touchscreen - very sensitive, albeit non-responsive to finger nails (not a problem for me but may be an issue for some women)Camera - decent and worth using when on the go.I have owned several cell phones over the years and this is by far the best.

This is my 2nd Nokia unlocked [1st was an xpress music 5800] and I've been very happy with it for several months.Other reviews go more in-depth as to what's great - one item to note - I set WLAN scanning off and only 3g instead of dual mode to save battery life.Be sure to look for / install any available updates and you'll have some nice surprises - like finally seeing who a text is from in the notification area - yea! It gives the camera some new features, too. I have font sizes set to large, texting is really easy and call quality is very good.Both phones are well-made - after a nasty fall broke the back hinge on the 700 but w/ a bit of transparent tape, it's fine.[Got the old one wet 3x but w/ a bag of dry rice overnight - still kicking!]The only thing I miss about my xpress is the *volume* - the 700 is tinny by comparison but I don't use it as a music player very often.My first smartphones and both without a contract via at&t - with lower data rates you can have reasonable monthly costs - love it!I don't even want to try another brand...

I was really excited about getting this phone for a lightning deal around Christmas time instead of a traditional smartphone. It worked well for the first several weeks, but just like some of the other reviewers stated, there are minimal well-known apps to use with the operating system. I have Straight Talk and was never able to successfully get it hooked up to receive picture messages; however, I was able to get it to connect to the internet.Overtime (a month and a half) the web pages began to lag and drag. The main answer/end call button began to stick and slide underneath the main body of the phone.It's very cute and compact, but was not a viable option for me to use Straight Talk. Just OK, but returned to Amazon. Would not recommend.

My 1st smartphone. Excellent graphics. Internal processing speed is awesome. I'm using it on Straight-talk. Takes the regular sized mini-SIM card, NOT the micro-SIM(past :( experience). Had quite a time trying to figure out how to set up the WiFi on it and mobile data on it. But I finally found an internet link about it, that worked. For some reason, messages sent on the instant-message screen only send a part of the words you text in. End-receiver only receives some of the words or only 1-3 letters of the finally word. Reply to message works fine. Easy to text and correct even with big fingers after a couple days of practice. Takes good videos and OK 5Mp photos with flash. The Symbian platform works great. No problems on speed. I only wish it were more compatible with/or there were an import app to display android apps.

When the phone arrived, I was happy with it. Appearances met what was described. It shipped in the time mentioned and I didn't encounter any problems when inserting my SIM card from my old T-Mobile phone. However, later in its use, when I made and received calls, I noticed the screen would go black and not tell me who was calling. Turns out a sensor in the phone was misaligned. Quite the inconvenience. Returned the phone the following week. The return process was very easy and my refund was taken care of as soon as the product reached the retailer.
