White UK Variant Nokia N97 Review & Overview

 Micky has written one of the most in-depth article that I have come across for the Nokia n97. Micky encompasses a fullreview and overview after owning the n97 for several weeks. Micky's recommendation is that the n97 is a phone suitable for emails, those who like to share photos, bloggers, social networking etc but feels for the business orientated, a more powerful device is needed.

Micky mentions the good along withthe bad. I however, disagree with all the bad acknowledgments, in particular, understanding nokia's viewpoint of not including the tv out cable. The vast majority of users do not use the cable and in nokia's new standpoint of reducing the packaging and excess from nokia phones, it is something I agree with. I have yet to come across the bugs associated with this device, although I have had an almighty crash due to a faulty application installation. Read my topic on 'no 3-key format' coming tomorrow.

How to answer a call with the phone locked?

I am sure many of you will know how to do this, but it is not completely obvious so I thought it would do no harm to mention it. With the screen locked when you receive a call you get this screen.

 What this is telling you is that if you swipe your finger right you will answer the call, and if you swipe it left you will unlock the screen and be presented with further options such as reject, reject with sms etc.

Was that too obvious or not?

Nokia 3720 Classic - for the adventurer in you!

 

Although this is not an s60 symbian handset, I thought it would be useful to list as an all duty rugged handset. You may recall the s60 nokia 5500 with its rubber casing and the haphazard keypad that  that popped-out of its own accord. Hopefully with the new model 3720 classic, nokia can claim back the adopters of the 5140 and 3310 whose phones appeared to live-on for an eternity.

The Student Life

A lot has gone on in the last 10 days of my life. I have had my college interview and I have been accepted. In September I will be going back-to-school. I will be doing a humanties course which consists of english literature, history, media and film.
