CNET Asia Review
Excellent
The good: Classy executive design; video-capable VGA camera; MP3 playback; FM radio; Bluetooth and infrared; MMC expansion slot. 8
out of 10View score
The bad: Small display; buggy.
The bottom line: While we're astounded by this Nokia's multimedia abilities and connectivity options, the screen and dodgy software leave an unpleasant aftertaste.

It`s special
Dec 15, 2006Rating: 7 out of 10 (Very good)
Pros: Mp3, Radio, creating folders
Cons: battery life,camera, lack of themes
Opinion:
I baught this phone after 3 weeks when it came in my country (Romania), in 2005.At first it was super phone, not too many people had this phone.I liked very much the bluetooth (something new at the time),the camera and the video were cool, but now I can see that it is not a great phone.the battery last 2 or 3 days if you don`t take photos or record videoclips,or listen music, if you do the battery life is one day.Another thing that I dislike at this phone is that it doesn`t have themes,and the sreen it`s too small.
It was a great phone but 2 years ago, now I can tell people not to buy it if they want quality, if you need a phone to talk and make photos in order to show it to your friends and than delete it it`s good, if you want a very good phone, and quality search for the ... Read more
PROBLEMS ON 1st DAY
Nov 23, 2005Rating: 1 out of 10 (Abysmal)
Pros: Improved graphics display
Cons: Suddenly went blank.
Opinion:
Bought this phone on 19/11/05. Screen suddenly went blank a few times. Sent handphone for repair on 21/11/05 and collected on the 23/11/05. Fault report stated component faulty. Went home to try and SAME PROBLEM occurred. Spent two hours travel to and fro to Nokia care centre. Went twice a week. Wasted 4 hours on just because they couldn't repair the phone properly the first time!! Judge for yourself. Gave only 1 point based on my personal opinion. Just feel that Nokia should uphold their reputation as a first class handphone manufacturer.
All-rounder that delivers
Sep 30, 2005Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros:
Cons:
Opinion:
An all-round excellent phone except that it has the annoying habit of switching off when too many functions are being employed at the same time. I'm impressed by how hardy it is. In a clumsy moment I dropped the phone and it bounced down several concrete steps before dropping about 1 meter to the ground below. Still works fine, though.
