Nokia Camera Cell Phone N75

1. Posted: Jun 23 2008

   Being somewhat used to candybar phones, I reluctantly decided to give the Nokia n75 a try after being disappointed by Motorola's software present in their popular RAZR and SLVR phones. I had fond memories of Nokia phones when I was just starting out with cell phones, so I was happy to become part of the family again. I didn't know things had changed so much at Nokia since I left. Everything was a little different than when I transitioned over to Motorola before; Nokia now ran this dreadful Symbian software on its phones that at least on my n75 ran abysmally slow. I experienced many dealys and lags between applications. In receiving text messages, I would often have a blank screen while the phone was trying to process the message and display it. Never before had I seen such lagging on a cell phone. And perhaps the biggest fault of the n75, the talk time of this phone is absolutely unforgivable. In every phone I've had before this model, I could seemingly talk all day with nary a worry about recharging or encountering a low battery warning. With this Nokia phone, I lose calls in the evening because the battery runs out so quickly; the manufacturer documentation only lists it as having four hours of talk time -- something dreadfully short for a modern phone. This phone is expensive and flashy -- don't fall into its trap. You can find a better phone at a better price somewhere else.
