The GSM Quadband receiver guarantees coverage without borders. Moreover, support for UMTS networks increases performance. Browsing the Internet is in fact really fast and convenient, thanks to the HTML browser and the modem with HSDPA data management.

Design and features
Clean and soft lines describe the 6710 Navigator. In this way they give it a light, sober and still fairly elegant look. The front houses the screen, a 2.6-inch TFT, capable of displaying up to 16 million colors; images are therefore absolutely vivid and sharp. Just below are the usual Nokia function keys and the multifunction pad to manage content. The body is not a single block, but slides vertically with a slide movement, revealing the standard alphanumeric keyboard inside. The dimensions also make it a tool suited to any situation, for uncompromising portability: 14.9 mm thick for 117 grams of weight.

The successful Symbian S60 platform is a guarantee of ease and speed of use. The menus are intuitive and allow you to manage every content at its best. Java support allows you to install additional software, so as to best customize your device. T9 predictive text helps a lot in quick text composition, allowing you to quickly write both SMS and E-mail. For email and multimedia messages, it is easy to manage attachments, thanks to the Pocket Office package. The phone aspect is absolutely complete, with speakerphone, voice recorder, voice call support and multi-conferencing. In addition, a dedicated front camera allows you to make video calls.
Entertainment and multimedia
It's needless to say that Nokia phones always give their utmost in technical quality and features. Here, then, the offer is truly complete, thanks also to the digital camera with a resolution of no less than 5 megapixels. The optics are Carl Zeiss, a guarantee of high quality, for perfect images in any light condition, thanks also to the LED Flash. You can also record videos, to be stored on the 50 MB internal memory. If the space should not be enough, with a microSD card you can easily reach up to 16 GB of memory.
