Nokia 7270
Review
Phone
rating: 
The
Nokia 7270 is another "fashion" phone from Nokia, part
of the fashion trio that includes the Nokia
7260. It's a beautifully styled clamshell phone with rounded
corners and made from a combination of metal, textiles and plastic.
The textile covers are changeable and a matching soft pouch and
carrying strap is supplied. The digital content (wallpaper, screensavers,
etc) has also been styled to match the covers. In addition, optional
style packs are available that complete the look and include leather
straps, phone jewellery and a credit card case.
The
external display is a 4k colour display, and uses STN technology
rather than the superior TFT, so can be hard to read when outdoors.
Open up the clam, however, and inside is a bright active matrix
display with 65k colours and 128 x 160 pixels, which is good for
a Nokia but not as good as the competition at this price point.
The camera is VGA and includes a video recorder - again nothing
special for the price. The functionality is definitely better than
the 7260, for example the 7270 supports MP3 ringtones, and there
are some useful features like an integrated handsfree speaker, voice
dialling and a voice recorder, but in terms of functionality the
Nokia 7270 is not an exceptional phone when compared to others at
this price. In parcticular, Bluetooth is noticeable by its
absence.
The
worst feature of the Nokia 7270 is its weight. At 121g its around
30% heavier than the average Samsung clamshell. What do Nokia put
into their clamshells that makes them so heavy?
Putting
aside the weight issue and the fact that the 7270 is less well specified
than any of its similarly-priced rivals, we have to admit that its
an exceptional phone. It does just enough to stand comparison with
other top-of-the-range phones, and it looks beautiful. If that's
what matters most to you, then buy this phone and don't look back!
Features
of the Nokia 7270 include:
- Main internal display: TFT 65,000 colours, 128
x 160 pixels

I've had this phone for just over a year - I am currently awaiting
my upgrade, and I have no complaints whatsoever. No, it doesn't
have an MP3 player BUT does have a radio (I have an iPod so I couldn't
care less about the former). The camera quality is very good, and
it's easy enough to use. I adore this phone BUT I wouldn't necessarily
recommend buying it because there are far better phones on the market.
I upgraded to the 6111, and Nokia lost a devoted fan with that phone.
However, the 7270 is good at what it does.

i have had this phone for a year and now its comin up for a trade
im giving it a review. the phone has served me well, rarely letting
me down over battery and signal, it isnt a very common phone which
i liked as it meant no1 else in my group of mates had it. the fabric
outer is quite clever, my first thoughts were "cool, but wont last
over a month, after 12 months the original black cover is stil attatched
and doesnt look tatty. overall i like the phone a lot and would
highly recommend it. however: -the camera isnt very good quality,
although this is due to the price -the volume switch on the side
broke after 4months and so i could only ever have full volume or
'mute audio' -bluetooth isnt on this phone which often prevents
file sharing with more upto date phones. i am pleased with this
phone and would recommend it to anyone.

i was deciding to give a mobile as a gift to my sister.at the time
i saw it i was impressed by it because it was the most beautiful
clamshell and i bought it.it had nice features but again the nokia
company did the same as with the nokia 6030.they had given an unaffordable
price .i mean a high price for a phone which gave less features
in return such as no blue tooth a vga camera instead of a megapixel
cameraand a 65k screen.the thing i liked about it was the accesories
i got and no reliability problems.so i sold it and paying a tiny
bit more i bought the samsung d500.i wouldnot say that the nokia
phone is very beautiful but has nothing in it.i am saying that they
provide limited functionality for the price.they should take a lesson
from sony ericsson and samsung.

had this phone since april. had always wanted a flip phone, but
prefered nokia's as i find them easier 2 use, so when i seen it
i said i had to have it!! would have liked bluetooth though. camera
is good quality, although with a small memory I have to constantly
go through my Images and Videos and erase some so I can store new
ones. have had some trouble with messages, in that it won't tell
me when i don't have space for new messages and I would sometimes
go for a few days atleast, wondering why i am not receiving any.
the push to talk feature is a bit pointless, don't know what it
is for. i have recently noticed the sounds have changed. the standard
warning tones, i.e. message sent confirmation, have went kind of
high pitched, but all other tones are still the same. over-all i
am quite happy with this phone, but am lookin for ward to the release
of the nokia 7370 in early 2006!!

To the person who wrote "reception is about the network not the
phone," you are blissfully unaware that in fact some phones do experience
poor 'reception'. After scientificially testing the same network
on two different phones I found that to be the case, so don't be
so quick to discount this person's observation, because you've been
too irrational in your euphoric lauding of this phone to take the
time to think.

Have had this phone for 7 months now and have had no problems at
all. The camera is not the best but I use the camera function on
a phone only occasionally and the pics are not that bad. The phone
features suit me fine, although O2 had to phone me and go through
the mms settings all by hand, on my samsung E700 they could send
them in a text but now it is set up the mms are sent much faster
than the samsung did.No problems with signal strength at all and
the calls are clear. The battery lasts about 3 days if on all the
time with occasional use but recharges quickly enough. I was able
to synch everything I needed on my pc with the pc suite via the
usb data cable without any glitches so I am a happy user so far.The
only niggle is the Push to Talk button, currently useless here,
as it can be pushed on quite easily if the phone is in your bag.Easily
turned off again when you use the phone, but a minor irritation.I
haven't found any of the newer nokias to be as solid as this so
wil l stick with this for a bit.

I have usually had Nokia phones, although prior to owning this I
had a Samsung clamshell. I liked the look of this chunky 7270 so
thought I would go back to Nokia Plus points - Nice big screen,
big number buttons.Surfing the net is easy. Radio is okay. Quality
build, feels like a real phone. Loudspeaker good. Loud enough ringtones
to hear in a busy environment. Minus points - Battery life appaling.
Reception unbelievably bad. (With another Nokia I can get a full
signal while with this I get nothing) PTT is undoubtedly a great
feature but until it is widely adopted by UK companies that PTT
button is wasted. Would be nice to be able to assign it to something.
Camera quality poor. Very little memory on the phone and no option
to increase it. Large fingers will struggle with the navigation
buttons. Sreen not bright enough in bright sunlight. Summary - In
principle I still like Nokias. Sadly I would not recommend this
as a business or a fun phone. There are better options out there.

My sister has this phone and all i can say as a nokia owner myself

comparing the features, the display and overall performance, the
7270 is really bad. It weighs just a few grams less even though
it's not a smartphone, it's not 3G and doesnt have bluetooth. The
display is also nowhere near as good as nokia's S60 phones. Mine
is bright and crisp, 7270's is dull with really bad resolution.
Even reception isnt up to nokia's usual standards as it hardly picks
a signal when at home. I dont recommend this phone to anyone.

I have had this phone for about a month now, upgraded from the samsung
E800! Graphics one this are very different to samsung, if you want
colourful fun graphics go with samsung, the menu graphics on this
are very basic like old nokia, and the colours are alot duller then
most phones, but i like it, it has cool themes you can set the screens
to! Looks wise i hated it at first but it was the best of a bad
bunch on o2 Online really, however i have grown to love it it does
feel a little plastic compared to my old one! i bought some cool
leather covers and it look stylish. Im an art student so i think
it suits me with the cool design and originality. As people have
said the mini display screen on the front is very pixalated, but
it does the job and tells the time when its closed, whats cool is
you can have differnt settings for it mini and for the big screen,
different wallpapers etc! Camera not as good as samsung and no flash,
which is a bit annoying, but i has video, i only take quick pics
anyway otherwise i use a normal camera!! Buttons are so good, they
are big and feel good to press!! Nice shape, smaller then what i
thought it would be! and i like how the red black and silver design
goes throughout the whole phone! Doesnt hold as many messages as
i would like or had before and didnt receive any messages for a
day because it was nearly full, but you just have to delete them
every so often! Reception/signal is about the same as most phones,
no bluetooth but i have never had bluetooth anyway! Cool charger
too, its weird! dont like the headphones it came with so i bought
some separately. It definately is a combination of different textures
and materials, probably not practical for everyone, but it will
do me for the next year i hope! my boyfriend has the new 3230 which
does have better graphics, games, but has few to many features for
me, and is bit slow! Overall good phone, wont suit everyone, but
is funky, and stylish, good fun, and easy to use!

I am so disappointed with my new Nokia. It was a birthday present,

service signals fade in and out, and I cannot make or receive any
calls or texts when I am within a building. That makes the phone
virtually useless, because I am a college student away from home,
so I use my cell as my main phone. I was much happier with my previous
Nokia, a 3200, which never has any service problems, incuding during
travel to other countries. I love the look of this phone, but it

hours after being sent and no calls can be received or made. The
phone itself is distinctly average. Big and bulky, basic, the only
reason I chose it was because it was a NOKIA. Dont let that fool

Nokia should be ashamed of themselves for putting only 128x160 pixels

it weighing like a brick. The UI is the same old series40 and the
graphics are just terrible. There is no bluetooth and the camera

The editors review for this phone definately does it justice. While

to be able to play snippets of mp3's as ringtones and message tones.
Getting a data cable is highly recommended cos that way you can
upload your own hot wallpapers for both the mini and main display.

something different - everyone who has a nokia has a 6230 these
days and this is something a little different. Shame about the lack
of bluetooth, but apart from that this is an awesome phone with
one of the best camera's nokia makes at the start of the year.

It's quite a good fone-- it looks cool and the wraps are kinda funky.
But the annoying thing is that it doesn't have bluetooth, and plus
all the themes it comes with are kinda dull so the colors arent
really used. Other than that.. love the radio, mp3 and its definitely
original.

Ive had this phone for about 3 months and im bored to death with
it, its the same old Nokia rubbish OS with no bluetooth...!! WHY??
Why no bluetooth?? Its bulky and boring and at present i'm receving
texts up to 17 hours late on O2. I suppose its good if you just
want a phone to be a phone, no gimmicks. The net browser doesnt
display pictures properly, cant get email working, the mini screen
on the front looks like the old ZX Spectrum computer graphics, it's
just a boring phone really.

I got hold of my Nokia 7270 almost a week ago and so far it has
been excellent. As i already have a Sony Ericsson K700i (which is
probably the best phone for features) I needed a phone which LOOKED
good. And so far it has passed with flying colours. Part of the
'fashion range' from Nokia, I've had more than my fair share of
stares when i classily pulled it out in public with my MP3 song
as my ringtones blarring out. Some might say the worst feature is
the lack of bluetooth, but as i have a phone with bluetooth, it
doesn't affect me as much. It has infa-red which is just as good
if you can be patient sending files. I would say the worst feature
is the external screen, which as mentioned above uses STN technology
instead of TFT. Slightly tinting the luxury look of this phone.
At the moment i am addicted to the game which came free in the phone
called Disco. But lets not get into that. Overall i would reccomend
it - if like me, sometimes you need to look and feel good!

I bought my Nokia 7270 for £99.99 with O2 Line Advance last
month - and sent it back after 2 days. Maybe I had a dodgy one,
but the back was loose and some buttons rattled - whole thing felt
cheapa and bulky. Wallpapers and display themes are dull in colour
and too stylised. Camera features: disappointing for a phone I had
to pay for. Am replacing it with a free Samsung E720 - just to try
something new. If that's no good I'll stick with my trusty old Nokia
7210!! A shame, because I've always been happy with Nokia, but they
seem to be disappearing up their own backside in trying to be too
different.

This phone is way cooler than any that nokia has ever produce. For
a clamshell phone, it has a lot to offer. First of all, it is designed
to do away with an external antenna, which is not such a common
feature amongst clamshell phones. It also has enough memory space
to store numerous amount of mp3 clips, and when played back through
it's speaker, sounds sharp and distinctive, but not as good as the
speaker on SE K700. Built quality impresses with a mix of piano-style
plastic covers, real steel covers, and a variety of cloths to snap
on the phone. true it is a tad heavy, but that just gives you the
impression that the phone is built without compromising it's quality.

a good camera?........yer its good but compared to others not the
best but if u want a phone jus for the camera, BUY A REAL CAMERA!!!
expensive? yes compared to the 6170 which more or less the same
cas its the prototype. this phone has nothig wrong with it and is
great apart from the price thats it.

I feel I have to warn you though, if you're thinking of buying it
sim free, watch out if you're on o2 because they don't have MMS
and GPRS settings for pay as you go 7270's yet. Ask em to send you
GPRS settings for a similar phone and it should work for you too.
Forget about MMS for the time being, but they assure me they're
working on it.
