First looks…
Just when the vendor opened the box… I was amazed to see how stylish the phone is… its slim, smart, sexy . The red n silver metallic strips make it seductive to hold n see! The keypad just kept my friends lookin for words!... Mind it, It looks much better in hand as compared to pics on net! Length’s a bit more than 2100! I call it BLACK BEAST!
Then I turned on the phone... & boy!, it had such a cool display!... very sharp, crisp n clear!... best of all the phones I & my friends had seen so far! U can see almost every detail… changing themes is so pleasurable experience! It seems now nokia has awaken to looks of phones.:)
Music…
The midis sound very loud (less than p900)… the background beats are vey clear… listening midi is very joyful. Mp3 is okok… some song which have high pitch sound loud, else medium. But still I have to lessen the volume when I m trying to sleep… that gives u an idea that its acceptable… I like the playlist feature supporting random & repeat.
All in all, the music has the perfect balance among treble & other effects. Nothing is too suppressed or too loud.
Worth mentioning is that amr & 3gp files sound very loud, much more than mp3 or midi… but some amrs give a pause after every 10 secs or so.
Internet…
Connecting 7610 to pc through bluetooth is easy… the phone does not hangs or restarts automatically on heavy load of net… as was t case with my 3650. But sometimes I do have to restart manually only for the first time while connecting internet (due to some BT probs), but not after that.
The application on mobile also is v steady, just like opera.
Imaging…
Well, this is the only (& v imp) feature of this phone which is below my expectations… Images when seen on phone (just after capturing, in small size) look so excellent… u think there is no need of digicam!, but when u enlarge them or transfer to PC… most of them will make ur mood off :(. After taking many photos, I have seen that photos taken outside like of flowers, leaves or on raod look very nice (yes v nice)…but photos in t room r not up to the mark… blurry… sometime it appears to have poor quality then a 3650!
Thinking about zoom?, ha ha ha!!! It’s a digital zoom, not optical… the more u zoom, the less is the detail of image (more blurry)!... but still nokia has managed to get a acceptable quality if ur aim is to shoot girl’s body parts… which of course is t major purpose!
As usual, the night mode is a magic… u get the required light out of nowhere!.. may be there is some connection b/w nokia & aliens. Self timer is also handy.
Video:cool:…
AHA!, this feature went far ahead my expectations… it seems everything is made keeping videos in mind… 10mins, zoom & bloody cool sofwares!!! yes, u still wont prefer to see the movies on PC… but the bloody softwares on mob … make it more fun than playing ur best games… You can add variety of styles to ur videos like Latte, Paparazzi, rendezvous, seduce, speedy, wink … addition to these u can cut, copy, mix, add colour effects, control speed, much much more... zoom works perfect with videos… whether 1x or 4x, its same quality!
Recorder…
Very sensitive!... I was sitting 2 mtrs away from the person… cooler was blowing out v loud… & still his laugh was so clear that its my current ringing tone!
Calling/contacts...
Loudspeaker is very loud n clear, even more than 3650, which already was v good. other person was clearly without ne noise was audible to whole room easily but i had to be in 1 mtr of range to talk normally... and without loudspeaker also its so loud that its 1st time that I had to lessen the volume!... 1 thing I dislike is even when t increased ringing option is disabled, ring will still be at v low in beginning for 5 secs & then jumping to loudest.
Contacts are better managed now… for god’s sake we now have t option to mark all contacts & copy them to sim!
Other things…
• As there is same pin configuration, I could somehow fit my old 128MB MMC in it… with no visible difference from outside but the back cover gets very tight… but who cares if u get double the capacity! :D
The nokia also gave an extender to 64MB RS-MMC that attaches to its back which gives it same shape as MMC for card readers… I cud also use it in 3650.
• Gallery contains all the multimedia. Although moving, deleting is fast but navigating in gallery is slow n boring.
• Full Screen Caller is the first application that should be downloaded.
• 8.3MB RAM free when appman & FS caller were installed.
• Key press feelings will make u keep pressing them!!!, especially the pencil button, which ironically is the biggest & least used, and most used navigation keys r t smallest out there! :)
• No special volume and camera buttons again.
Conclusion…
ITS KILLING LOOKS, DASHING DISPLAY, CHILLING VIDEOS, COOL MUSIC, PROUDY SYMBIAN OS… easily outweighs its minor problem in camera qualities!.... I GIVE IT 9.5/10… if u can afford, do not think twice… JUST BUY IT!
