 Nokia 7270 is announced in 2004
Design
Nokia's 7270 is a typical clamshell design. Measures 46 x 88 x 22 mm in size and weighing 121 grams, it is not light but feels very slender despite its size.A secound 96 x 96 pixel, 4096 CSTN display dominates the front cover, and although not the clearest external display we've seen it is still quite functional.The 16 bit - color display which is a little milky, dim and uneven, as well as having lower resolution than usual.The display resolution 128 x 160 pixel ideal for small and smart phone.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker, while on the other side we find a dedicated camera button.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Nokia handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The 7270 is not comfortable for hold in ones hand because it is too wide.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Nokia handsets.The plastic keypad has very limited key travel and jiggles independently of the phone, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.And last,but not least, a five-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
In the WAN department, the 7270 boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as HSCSD, GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , Email client, Java MIDP 2.0, voice commands, a voice recorder, Loud Speaker, all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of infrared old wireless device,GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, HSCSD support gives more speed when you browse with your mobile browser,and spacious phone book.
As previously mentioned, the 7270 is also equipped with a 1 megapixel camera support for picture-taking and audio/video recording, as well as an integrated MP3 player.The latter of which is also the reason for why the 0 MB of internal memory, which initially appears spacious, is quickly stretched to its limits. MP3 and MPEG4 are both formats which can be stored for playback on the Nokia 7270. The phone incidentally also offers up an integrated FM radio.
Unfortunately, neither Memory Stick Duo format or any other method of memory expansion is supported by the 7270, meaning users find themselves drawn by the MP3 playback capabilities will also quickly - and repeatedly - drawn to their PC and USB cable for updating ones playlist.
Performance
Audio quality on the 7270 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 760 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 4 hours talk time or 270 hours standby, which is very good for battery's theoretical capacity.Charge time is about 114 minutes.
Availability
The Nokia 7270 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Nokia 7270 is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Nokia design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
