Flower wallpaper for Nokia N92
Author: wallpapers4mobile.net
Description: Like HTC, Nokia distinguishes itself in the smart phone world by offering a broad range of designs. Nokia's E series is particularly noteworthy; this family of business-centric smart phones comes in all shapes and sizes, pretty much ensuring that there's a style to suit almost everyone. We've already checked out the broad and powerful Nokia E62, which is built for the power user, but what if you want the same messaging capabilities without all the bulk? No problem. The Nokia E70 answers that call. It offers a more compact candy bar-style design, yet still manages to pack in a fold-out QWERTY keyboard, robust productivity tools for the mobile professional, and a 2-megapixel camera. Unfortunately, all this power takes a bit of a toll on the phone, as it occasionally suffers from sluggish performance, and call quality could be better. As with most of Nokia's smart phones, the E70 has not been picked up by a U.S. carrier, so you'll pay a premium for an unlocked version. Currently, the Nokia E70 is available for around $390 to $450.
Design
Though the Nokia E70 shares the same flip-phone body of the Nokia 6820, that's where the similarities end between the two phones. Like the rest of the Nokia E series, the E70 caters to the business crowd, so the handset has a more muted and refined look, with its classic silver-and-black color scheme and streamlined design. By contrast, the Nokia 6820 has a more youthful light blue-and-silver casing and resembles a basic, starter cell phone. The E70 has a stout body to match its solid feature set; at 4.6 inches long by 2.9 inches wide by 0.8 inch thick and weighing 4.4 ounces, it certainly doesn't fall into the sleek-and-sexy category, and it's quite masculine-looking, but it feels solid in the hand and is comfortable to use as a phone.
On front of the device, there is a gorgeous 2.2-inch diagonal, 16 million-color TFT display with a 352x416-pixel resolution. We were impressed by how sharp and vibrant text and images looked on the E70, and everything was still readable under direct sunlight. As with most of Nokia's Symbian smart phones, however, the E70 does not have a touch screen. To navigate the phone's menus, there are two soft keys and a joystick underneath the screen, while below that are Talk and End keys, a Menu shortcut, and a Clear button. Most of the controls are easy to press, but we wish the joystick was slightly larger or raised more above the phone's surface, and it's also a bit stiff. Using our thumb, we often pressed the joystick and selected an item accidentally, when all we wanted to do was move in one direction. Fortunately, the numeric keypad is easier to use, as the keys are spacious and tactile, if not a bit slippery. Plus, they are adequately backlit for typing in darker environments.
The fold-out QWERTY keyboard is fairly easy to use and the screen automatically switches to landscape mode.
Of course, for serious messaging, you can flip up the front cover and take advantage of the Nokia E70's full QWERTY keyboard. We like that the screen automatically switches to landscape mode, and the cover's hinge was sturdy enough to endure repeated opening and closing. The keyboard itself is fairly good. Its buttons are tactile and brightly backlit, but it's not as spacious as the LG enV's keyboard. The number/symbol buttons that line the top row also are smaller than the rest of the keys, so these may be extra troublesome. I have fairly small hands, so I didn't run into too many problems with pressing the wrong keys, but if you have larger thumbs, you may have some difficulties at first. However, as with any QWERTY device, you can be typing with ease after a period of acclimation. We also thought the menu navigation on the E70 in its open state was much easier to use than the confusing Samsung SCH-u740.
Other design features on the Nokia E70 include a customizable shortcut key on the left spine, and a power/USB/headset connector port on the bottom of the unit. The camera lens is on the back of the device. There's a miniSD card slot as well, but unfortunately, it's inconveniently located behind the battery cover on the right side (with the back side facing you).
The Nokia E70 is equipped with a 2-megapixel camera with an 8x digital zoom, but there's no flash or self-portrait mirror.
Finally, Nokia packages the E70 with a travel charger, a USB cable, a wired headset, a CD-ROM with desktop software, and reference material.
