The C7 is very simply the best phone I ever owned.
Feature set is outstanding and beats the likes of iPhone and SGS:
Telephony is excellent - much clearer and louder than on my Samsung Galaxy S that I had before.
Handsfree is better than the one I have in my car - loud enough too.
Symbian Calendar and Adress book are - in my book - still the best.
Videorecording is excellent and renders a separate videodevice obsolete, camera is ok outdoors.
Navigation is top-notch with excellent GPS reception (if A-GPS is enabled) and live traffic information that covers (at least here in Germany) even city roads.
OLED Display is great, videoplayback is the best I have seen: Plays everything I throw at it: avi, mkv, mp4, mov -and up to 720p resolution.
Musicplayback is great, RDS radio helpful at times, radio transmitter very useful in (rental) cars without aux-in.
NFC is there, might get useful in 2012...
Battery live is ok: I get between 12 and 48 hours depending on use - but battery is exchangeable and you can get a spare for 6 USD including shipping.
USB host feature is useful sometimes for getting data from USB sticks, but with 8 GB internal memory + 32 GB microSD I rarely need it. You will need an adapter too. 6 USD from China as well.
Downsides:
Internetsurfing is not the strong side of this device - resolution is too low, browser not the best. However, it is still sufficient for such a small device.
- It can get sluggish with lots of apps running in the background.
- OVI is still faaaaar behind android or Apple. However, most of the populare games are available for the C7 as well (Angry birds, Asphalt 5+6, some Gameloft titles) and thanks to the PowerVR accelerator they look good too.
- Some stuff is not in the box: USB Host cable, Video out cable - but all is easy too find and much cheaper than the Apple equivalent.
Verdict:
If you can live with Symbian and don't need the camera of the N8 or the keyboard of the E6 buy it.
I would buy it again any time !

Anonymous, 29 Aug 2011It doesnt come with any of these in the box :)I guess we could say that Nokia is a bit stingy. They should provide all the accessories in the box.
