The Nokia N70 is a smart phone and a successor to Nokia’s 6680. The N70 comes with many improved capabilities over its predecessor including a freshly designed application interface for those relying of the phone’s corporate features. It runs Symbian S60 OS and thus includes all the basic PIM features along with more business applications such as QuickOffice, which lets users view and edit Microsoft Office documents, and a PDF viewer for attachments. Then there’s a 2-megapixel camera which can shoots pictures as well as video clips. Once shots are taken, you may touch up or edit them using several effects and clip art included in the onboard image editor. The N70 also supports standard connectivity including 3G, Bluetooth and USB.

Undoubtedly, the N70 is a good alternative to your PDA, but that doesn’t mean it’s a flawless performer. Nokia have surprisingly omitted Wi-Fi connectivity and this may reduce its appeal in the corporate market. Also, if you’re a music-lover, you may be disappointed with the phone’s media capabilities. Firstly, the speakers are not loud enough to be heard in noisy environments and the included headphones aren’t very good either. Secondly, the camera produces noisy and blurred images if used in dark environments. However, you can expect respectable results if you shoot in good lighting conditions. Battery life is average with 3 hours of talktime and a standby of 12 days. Overall, the N70 is a good performer and makes a worthy successor to the 6680. If you’re looking for a good smartphone with handy media features, this is the one for you.

    Nokia N70 is the second phone from the new N series, announced by Nokia in the spring. All models of this line are extraordinary in a certain way: the N90 model because of its 2 megapixel camera and optics from Carl Zeiss, Nokia N91 because of its built-in hard disk. Three phones were announced as part of the Nseries - the N70, N90, and the N91.The N70 is the first phone form the Nseries,it is still a smartphone that has 3G, a 2 megapixel camera, 30 MB of memory+ an 64...

    In the looks department, it is light speeds ahead of the 6680, as the N70’s two-tone colour scheme, matte finish and smooth contours add up to give it a very original look. IMHO, a candybar phone has not looked this classy for a long time. However, the keypad suffers from the new design as it is has been crammed into a much smaller space. Although the buttons offer very good tactile feel, it is a nightmare to thumb-type on the tiny keys. Plus, there are just too many... Read more

    I bought N70 Music Edition. All is good, expect the fact that the OS takes a while to respond. Sound is excellent, video quality is fine & the 2 MP camera works cool too. Read more
