Excellent Phone!
I will try to summarize how excellent this phone is.I'll begin with the cons*OS Symbian can be slow sometimes but I think It can be fixed with the Software UpdaterPros*Excellent call quality and Signal reception*Nice design(for me it's the best for now for a N Series Phone)*Camera quality is really good: maybe not the best of NSeries but it is really good for quick shots...As I always say; a camera phone is not a replacement for a real camera(see m...

Nice Features but hard to use
I've just bought the phone. I was looking for a phone which I could use for Skype and WLAN. I've upgraded the phone OS as soon as I take it out of box. I've never owned a Nokia before so I hadn't use a Symbian phone. I was using Sony Ericsson phones for ages. But since Nokia is the top seller I was expecting a very good phone.First of all the screen design is not impressive and very classical. The SE has nice animated themes for like ages. But Nokia does not have any. The only intere...

Great Phone
This is my first Nokia, and my first unlocked phone.I've had the phone for a little over a week and these are my impressions:It's built really well. It feels solid and the screen seems pretty scratch resistant so far. The buttons are also really nice and the number keys are god for texting. From my research it seems to be a characteristic of N series phones. The design is clean as well. It seems well thought out and there's not much missing (an external play/pause bu...

Great phone, mediocre ergonomics
Outstanding functions, takes fantastic pictures with great Macro and high-speed capture.But the keyboard- yikes! No sensory feedback at all; it's actually tiring to use the keyboard. I had this phone for two weeks- the first week I toyed with it until I got an inexpensive case to protect it. The second week it was my full-time carry phone.I just couldn't live with the keyboard which is a crying shame considering the functionality of the device. I'm not a huge guy, but...

pretty nice, but not quite
I got this phone and unlike the product description, the color is NOT silver, but white. Supposedly the only color available for this phone as of today is only in white for the US version. The bundled firmware is very buggy so I had to update it to version 11.049. There are still some bugs, but many are fixed. Phone has a great camera which replaced my old point and shoot. It has great reception and call quality is good. I like the deign of the phone in general, however there are trade-offs for ...

A well-rounded and capable device
Well-rounded is best label I can think of for this phone. It has a very full feature set, and comes in a small and light form factor. It is not overly ornate or dull, and comes packaged with swappable backplates ("Style-Up" covers?). I got this for my wife and have been setting it up for her and find it truely pleasant to use.Number of key points:- Sybian S60 3.2 UI a breeze to use - I have been a long-time Sony Ericsson user and using S60 for the first time did not present a huge le...

My best choice!
Definitely, my best SmartPhone choice!Being a smartphone users from several years ago (i started with a Motorola MPx 200), I switched to Nokia years ago, with this roadmap (N75 3G US -> N95 8GB -> N78 3G US -> HTC Diamond 3G US -> HP iPaq 614c 3G US-> Nokia N79 3G US)(Yes, there are a couple of WinMo, but i liked the idea to show you my last choices)My new Nokia N79 3G US covers all my needs.I prefer a Candy Bar phone, because there are no moving parts, ...

Great Phone
I bought the N79 11 days ago. Thus far, I'm very satisfied with this phone. The reception is great and crystal clear wherever I've been. Battery life is fine. One of the first things I did was upgrade the firmware over the air via Wifi. I have software version 20.175 now. I've used the music player and Internet radio a lot and I'm impressed. I get a lot of great music and sports radio stations over the Internet. I just use my old 4GB San Disk Micro SD card for my 60's music and it plays extremel...

Excellent Phone: what you expect from Nokia
The Nokia N79 is an excellent phone, especially for people who like multimedia. Sorry iPhone, this phone has two cameras, video conference capability, lots of editing options, amazing battery life, wi-fi and more, all of these hidden behind a humble form factor. Nice price if you want to avoid those expensive data plans. The keyboard is not it's forte, but other than that, this phone is a must have.
