        i have nokia 6270,and its about 1.5 years old. it is a high end high cost mobile from nokia. i and my many friends trusted and bought several nokia coslty sets. but after the warranty is over it started giving problem.........and when i took it to nokia care ,they said [bit can not be repaired[/b],they even did not see what was the problem. then i took it to another nokia care,and this time they just touched it and told it can't be repaired...............friends do not buy nokia high end mobile phones because the[b after sells service of nokia is the worst ever[/b].i and my friends are suffering so i thought that i should post my bitter experience to all..................once your warranty is over your costly set will start giving problem and if it is then its gone because nokia's high end mobile life time is just the warranty period they provide. most customers are facing this problem..............friends be alert and please do not buy nokia

          abc, 02 Sep 2008y do people need stylish phones, do they marry the phone or what:P?nobody wants an ugly phone because they cant flaunt it in public. n79 is a stylish phone. its more of a fashion statement. the interchangeable color covers match your personality, mood, dress or occasion. the features are just too good. before you had to pay a premium amount to have a gps, wifi, 5mp camera, etc in one phone. but now, you get it all at a very reasonable price. that's what n79 is all about, function and style.

            I wonder how the video recording at VGA 30fps will be?

            I heard that 6220 classic (same processor as N79, the Freescale mxc300-30 369MHz), records VGA 30fps, BUT the quality is low compared to N82 (processor TI OMAP 2420 332MHz).

            Let's hope it is only a software reason. Although, I really don't know how can the Freescale platform handle 5mp and VGA video recording at 30fps (check the specs on official freescale website).

            On the other hand, the benchmark posted on this article:
            http://smape.com/en/reviews/nokia/Nokia_6220_classic-rev.html
            surprises me! :)

            Can anywone confirm anything?

            PS:smape.com has a N85 review too!!!!!!
            PS2:Please excuse my english!

              Difference with 6220 Classic: 10% bigger screen, wifi, longer batterylife, bit bigger size (right in the middle of small 62220 c and (to) big N 82.Xenon flash vs led, according to Nokia-site bigger resolution too (soas cameraphone not exactly the same.
              Some one said nevertheless 6220 bette camera (?). We need the GSMArena REVIEW to be sure.

                      Chunky Corned Beef, 02 Sep 2008As is Nokia's practice of releasing black edition models after some time a model is released, ... moreIm not sure if they wil release a black version. I gues it depends wìth the success of the handset. If its successful enough, they might release one. It might even be a music edition.
                      I read somewhere that it might have the sound quality of the 6210navigator. Is it true?

                        As is Nokia's practice of releasing black edition models after some time a model is released, will they do the same with the N79?
                        What do you think guys? I love phones in black but I hate to wait. Wish they also came up with a black model aside from the white and grey colors.
                        But anyway, color isn't that much of an issue. N79 is so stylish and so packed with features. This will be a well deserved update to my current phone which is a 5700XM.
                        Nokia will really have a sure-fire hit with the new Nseries phones.
                        I agree with gsmarena's article, pertaining to N78 owners becoming disappointed once N79 is released. They must be scratching the back of their heads because of that. But N78 is a good buy, I should say. It also has some features almost similar to N79. The camera is a big deal for me and I'd go for a phone with a 5MP AF shooter. N79's also got an in-box 4GB microSD card which makes me salivate. And with the two extra XpressOn smart covers included, there's some fun element with the package. And the battery life is acceptable, given that most of N79's potential users will really make the most out of the handset.
                        How I would really want to have the N79. I'm now saving for it come Christmas time. Yippee!

                          inzaghi, 02 Sep 2008Hi please will have N79 exactly the same audio quality as N78?Yes, N79 will have the same sound quality of N78.
                          N79 is much more stylish than N78. You just gotta see it in person because internet pictures just don't make justice.

                                This is a great phone. It is better than my Nokia N82. But it is not stylish enough. N78 is more stylish , I think.

                                      Vlad, 31 Aug 2008 It will have 96MB or 128MB of RAM. Unfortunately we do not know that yet. :( Gsmarena says ... moreAfter founding this:
                                      http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=1338
                                      I am now 99%, that this phone has 128MB RAM.
                                      That website seems to be very well documented, so I see no reason not to believe them.

                                      Isn't that great news? :D
