Nokia 6760 Review– Tailor Made For Simple and Swift Social Messaging
The Nokia 6760 is a smart messenger phone in the lower midrange category. Known in the US as Nokia Surge, Nokia 6760 is so much focused on the use of the full QWERTY slide out keyboard. Measuring 97.5 x 57.9 x 15.5 mm and weighing 123.9 g, the Nokia 6760 is sure to fit your pockets while you are on the go. A Li-Ion 1500 mAh battery guarantees a standby time of 500 hours for 2G and 3G, talk time of 5 hours for 2G and 4 hours for 3G and music play time of 17 hours.
Compared to the real estate available on the front panel, the Nokia 6760 has a small 2.4” TFT screen. The QVGA screen has very good legibility under sunlight and it also has a brighter screen. An ambient light sensor is integrated with the ear piece to avoid extra sensor on the front panel. Below the screen, there are call and end keys along with the D pad. Additional hardware keys for quick access to browser, menu and messaging are placed on the left side of the display.
A full slide out QWERTY keyboard is the main center of attraction for the Nokia 6760. There is no alphanumeric keypad and hence, when you need to dial numbers, you should use the slide out keyboard only. The keys are all neatly arranged in three rows and the design makes it very comfortable to use the messaging option without any hassle.
3MP camera is found at the back of the Nokia 6760. There is no LED flash or self portrait mirror that can improve the quality of pictures taken. Video recording at 51 fps QVGA is quite good. The music player that comes with the Nokia 6760 is pretty decent even though you can't expect full end musical features, however, various formats are supported by the player. As the slide model is not designed for musical lovers, there are no dedicated music keys. The video player is basic without any support for DivX or XviD. FM radio with RDS support makes the entertainment package of Nokia 6760 complete.
The Nokia 6760 runs on Symbian S60 3rd edition user interface. If you are already used to the Symbian interface and feature pack 2 in the E series phone, you won't find anything new or intriguing in the Nokia 6760. 5th edition styling is brought about by S60 icons and accelerometer rotates orientation of the home screen as you rotate the phone. The active standby mode lets you add shortcuts for websites and applications to the home screen. Home screen notifications can also be customized depending on how you want to use your phone. Aside from the built in 128MB, you can exploit additional memory through using microSD cards.
The telephony of the Nokia 6760 is as good as any other high end phone with good reception and call sound quality. The phonebook has been revamped with a couple of extra features. You can now get windows live integration and Ovi contacts integration. Once you logon with your windows ID, you can use all types of windows message services. SMS, MMS and emails are supported by the Nokia 6760. Nokia messaging email client can be configured to handle various email accounts.
The connectivity options with the Nokia 6760 are a mixed bag. You will get Bluetooth, USB 2.0, 2.5mm audio jack, GPRS/EDGE, and dual band HSDPA, but there is no Wi-Fi and standard 3.5mm audio jack. Elaborate web browser exploits connectivity options. Organizers are very well equipped and the mobile office is worth a special mention with support for Word, Excel, PDF, PowerPoint, and Zip manager. The Nokia 6760 has GPS receiver and you can share your location with your friends using Ovi maps. Aside from standard 2D mode, you can also use interactive 3D mode for Ovi maps for navigation.
