'Nokia doesn't include cutting edge, headline-grabbing mobile phone technology such as built in GPS, Wi-Fi or HSDPA high-speed data connectivity, or touchscreen activation.'
'underperformance or exorbitant price'
'"The high-end materials and seamless surfaces are pleasing to touch while the sophisticated, minimalistic design is equally satisfying to the eyes.'
'push email capabilities which, provided you've enabled a data service through your carrier, sends new e-mail messages directly to the device without forcing you to continuously login'
'You also need good eyes and a steady hand to tap out email messages on the small on-screen keyboard.'
'lackluster camera'
'The Atom's screen is fairly decent, with a 320 x 240 pixel resolution and good colour depth of 262,000.'
'It's an interesting addition to the
using the phone to take pictures.'
'The image colors are quite unnatural and the pictures are overprocessed by some noise reduction algorithm, which applies water color effect to the objects located far away from the camera - and furthermore they are seriously out of focus.'
'Weighing in at 125 g and measuring 104 x 50 x 23 mm, the Nokia 6270 clocks in at a decently sized slider form factor'
'Nokia 6270's interface is identical to the interface used in several other recent Nokia phones - the user interface is the last generation of the Series 40 platform.'
'We notice a little underexposure in the N71 photos'
'Post-processing and sharing options are extensive, with upload-to-print solutions as well as direct printing through Infrared, Bluetooth or PictBridge.'
'the (mostly) dull plastic casing all round makes the N71 feel a little behind the times in these days of shiny fascias and metal casings.'
'if we didn't place the earpiece exactly within the audio sweet spot, voices had a tendency to become muffled.'
'Syncing with my pc has never been easier before'
'rechargeable 1,200 mAh Lithium Ion battery will not allow for any extended use of an accessory such as a Wi-Fi card as it already struggles to provide sufficient battery life as is.'
'Heavy users are going to want to charge overnight as the unit will probably die at some point on day 2.'
