Nokia C7 review

Network and connections
An absolutely complete Nokia phone of excellent quality, presented in 2010 by the Finnish company. The C7 is a GSM Quadband, on frequencies of 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHZ to guarantee an optimal level of coverage. In addition, UMTS networks are supported, to add mobile functionality to the device. Packet data traffic is handled in HSDPA, so as to guarantee high speeds while browsing the Internet. The HTML browser can in fact open pages just like with home ADSL. The USB data cable allows you to synchronize every piece of information with the PC; Bluetooth is instead convenient for exchanging files with other compatible devices. A Wi-Fi antenna is also present, but no big deal.

Design and features
The compact dimensions of the Candybar body make the Nokia C7 an everyday companion, precisely because of its reduced bulk which allows for excellent portability. The thickness is in fact only 10.5 mm, while the weight is 130 grams. The front houses the screen, a 3.5-inch AMOLED, capable of displaying up to 16 million colors; this way you always get vivid and bright images. It also integrates Capacitive Touch Screen technology. A multifunction key will help with managing content.

Main features
As is now well known, Nokia equips its phones with absolutely intuitive platforms to use, which greatly simplify navigating menus and changing settings. Here in fact we have Symbian Series 3, a guarantee of reliability, stability and the ability to customize content. With Java support it is in fact possible to install additional software, so as to allow every user to meet their own needs. T9 predictive text helps a lot with quick text composition, both for SMS and for Email. The Pocket Office package allows you to read and edit documents of various types, so as to easily manage email attachments as well. Or again Web TV and video output for projections. The telephone aspect is absolutely complete, with speakerphone, voice recorder, multiconference support and voice calling. There is also a front-facing camera for making video calls. To keep in touch with friends on the network, Instant Messaging is also present.

Entertainment and multimedia
An excellent tool for managing office tasks, but also decidedly valid for filling moments of leisure. Here in fact is the rear camera with a full 8 megapixel resolution, capable of taking excellent quality photographs in any lighting condition, thanks to the Dual LED Flash. You can also record videos with audio, to be stored on the internal space of 8 GB; if that's not enough, it's easy to expand the memory up to 32 GB with microSD cards.
