Nokia N73 - user opinions and reviews

Nokia

RANDOMSTRANGER,
I've been asking that for quite some time now, nobody answers... That is really my concern and I want to make sure there's no such SMS freezing bug before I buy N73. I've learned my lesson when I purchased N80 on the first days of its release. Keep me updated if you don't mind. Thank you.
Warm regards
-Chico, Nueva Vizcaya, Philippines

The Nokia N73 is an excellent phone. Yes it works in the US with Cingular. Yes, it has a very good camera. Yes, there is an equalizer. I have had the phone crash on me once, but other than that, it's been fine, and I'm sure it's nothing that a firmware upgrade won't fix. If you're picky, wait it out.

Some big issues that people might have trouble with are:
- Very slow camera start up time
- No way to sort contacts by first name (the feature is available, but doesn't work) [firmware]
- It requires a restart every so often, as there is a memory leak issue [firmware]

Everything else is great, though. The case seems to be quite resilient, and it has great audio quality (music on the headphones isn't that bad, either). It's more stable in terms of network switching than my old 6600, but it does seem to have weaker signal (this is my personal opinion and may not be true.)

I would wait until there is a v.2 or a firmware upgrade available, but if you really want it, it is very much usable (and beautiful) as-is now.

Question:
Is it every N73 user experience the 'freezing bug'? Or are they just some few isolated cases?

Will the N73 work with Cingular in the US?
I'm thinking about buying it.
I currently have a Motorola V80 that works on Cingular, but not that great.

I obtained the phone on an upgrade and returned it after a few days. The camera is first class but the phone froze 3 times when doing texts and I had to disconnect the battery to get it restarted. Its also a little bulkier than I expected.

To di: It's in Quezon City. It's also known as SM West. ^_^

To CaRtz:

In Greenhills, N73 costs Php 25,500 w/ 1 year warranty @ any Nokia service center.
I'm sure after a month or two, its price will drop. Good luck!

Ummm, cartz, asl? hehehe. ^_^

hi ,
nokia has finally copied sony ericsson's digicam type handsets viz., k 750 , k800 etc ,
these pohnes while using as a camera look and behave exactly as a cam ie., it is
designed to take pics in horizontal condition .
