Well, it's not going to be 1.3Ghz, but maybe in the range of 800 - 850. That's the upgrade we are all waiting for. But I'm sure the overclocking is going to drain the battery faster.
As for the other updates, I'm sure C7 and the other older Symbian^3 devices can handle them well enough. 701 and C7 dont seem far apart when it comes to performance comparisson. You can check out the Youtube videos comparing the two devices.
While it's true that we recently got Belle update and the newer phones were shipped with Belle from the factory, the wait cannot be all that long... even the newer phones will be getting the update in 3 - 4 months time ... I'm sure our wait won't be much longer. Cheers!!!

As a follow up to my earlier post, I think the 701/700 video capabilities will stay at 720p cos the GPU won't be any different..Still, its nice that the overall experience will be quicker on them. Future Belle updates will probably be too "heavy" for the C7. Makes Carla quite unlikely if we don't even get Belle FP1..

Looks like the C7/N8 will miss the party that the 701,700 and 603 are going to with the Belle FP1. I was kinda hoping they would release a service pack update for all Belle phones. Still its interesting..the newer Belle phones will get a more capable HTML5 browser and their processor bumped up to 1.3 GHz like the Nokia 808 PureView. Will they then be able to play 1080p video? And more excitingly, will they be able to record that? All said and done, an exciting next few months for them..Just sorry that we'll be missing the party :(

AnonD-27058, 01 Mar 2012Hi all C7 users. I want to know from you all that have updated to Belle whether it is worth it... morehello Valadar,
you are questioning about software which differs from one user to another. I can say from what I have been using. the screen is more usable as the icons and shortcuts are more manageable. you don't have fix rows in belle but can align the icons at your wish. the notification bar is very useful. you can switch very easy from one profile to another and even open or close WIFI and GPRS very easy. Screen sensitiveness is OK. Battery life depends on usage type. Due to nokia partnership with Windows 4 days ago I installed Microsoft Docs(something like that). you get Lync + Microsoft Docs to store in a cloud I guess.
I thing I found very good which is not in ANNA is the mail. in exchange serve of Belle when you create the widget in your screen you get a big box to check your inbox mail. Nr. of mail is limited and you get only the header but still you check some mail without even opening the mail itself.

Hi all C7 users. I want to know from you all that have updated to Belle whether it is worth it knowing all the pros and cons. Is there really that much of a performance increase and can you still use alot of Anna's old apps? Thanks

hello ryan, i have been using the phone for the last two months. Even me I have seen that the battery drops quite fast but not that fast as you are saying. Mine is like after 1 or 2 hours from charging i have like 10-15% of battery already gone. this may be even a problem of battery itself(i bought my phone this january and upgraded to belle in two week time so can't make comparison on the OS) or the fact that both we had app running in the background. i would suggest that if you are not using any mail or social network to close WIFI and GPRS connection, close any apps that is not being used but its opened.
I'm afraid that having a 3.5 screen will drain the battery faster and just locking and unlocking the screen consumes. my effort is to make the phone in moderate usage to last for 2.5 days.
Try to recharge the battery the less frequent possible this way you don't have to buy a new one in 6-12 months and will prolong battery life :)

AnonD-22351, 28 Feb 2012Dear saurabha:-) From where did you got these home clock widget and 3D photo..??Dear C7-zak,
I downloaded 3DPhotoFree, Home Clock both from Nokia Store however 3DPhotoFree now is not available as free it is showing Paid software & Home Clock is not available. I will check if I have the installer with me.
Also, Mirror and Camera Mirror both are working good.
Also noticed that we cannot pause Recorder.
Still working to download CallRecorderas posted earlier it shows Downloading, Installing on C7 and after finishing when tried to look at it in Menu it is not present.
