  1. Nokia N70 3G phone

    Nokia's N70 isn't half bad. Unlike so many 3G phones - including Nokia's own N80 - it's neither chunky nor inelegant. It's got the slick look of Nokia's business phones coupled with a consumer-friendly feature set. The camera's good, and there's a nice music player for your MP3s - it supports iTunes-friendly the AAC format too, though not songs downloaded from Apple's online music store. Sure, it has its idiosyncracies - size, the lack of flight mode - and the battery's... Read more

    Like the 6330 the N70 certainly has become the next all round handset that companies use to send out product demos on. In the last 6 months we've had over five in the office with different applications. So should this be the phone for you? Well it certainly does what it says on the tin, however with such a large bulky handset this isn't something that you'll want to slip in your pocket as you head down the pub. Yes while you are there you'll be able to get the footie... Read more

    Was it really just last week that my review of ALK’s CoPilot Live 6 for Windows Mobile Smartphone was published? As I mentioned then, ALK has been supporting Windows Mobile for some time, but it wasn’t until February this year that the company announced the availability of CoPilot for Symbian Series 60.

    I bought N70 Music Edition. All is good, expect the fact that the OS takes a while to respond. Sound is excellent, video quality is fine & the 2 MP camera works cool too. Read more

    Even if its already aged, it still has nice features.Its price is quickly diminishing but sadly, the accesories and add ons are also diminishing in popularity so plans of buying these should be planned now. Read more

    N70 is the worst mobile I have ever had! It switches itself off quite often and the screen freezes for about a whole minute after I send a text. Wished I havent bought it. Read more

    I got this phone a number of years ago on Orange Contract. Since then I have kept it even though I have renewed contract until my latest renew where I got my Blackberry Bold (see that review) This phone I found was very hardy and useful for most of my needs. For starters the menu is the new Nokia multimedia iconic menu. This is easy to use. It has a normal key pad on the phone which needs the many button presses for letters. The phone can hald a MicroSD card for... Read more
