Phone Review - Nokia 7210 Supernova

Hi
Recently, i had to buy a new cellphone. So i decided to go to a nearby cellphone retailing joint outlet, and asked for some good new handsets. First he showed some known ones, but then he introduced a newly launched handset - Nokia 7210 Supernova(Or 7210c as the product id states).
The phone reminds me of Nokia's new 5210 XpressMusic. Its just the same,only the dedicated music buttons are missing. It has a 2MP camera,which gives quite decent images, when viewed from the computer.

The sound of the handset is good, almost as good as the Xpressmusic ones. Both the speakers and handsfree provided good output,with the speakers lagging behind. Although the sound is nice, those who love high bass would be certainly disappointed a bit,as the bass is not upto the mark- the reasons for it known only to nokia guys. The phone's S40 Interface also keeps working well.

The phone gives a stated 280 hours standby and 5and a half hours talktime, which is overstated when seen in practically,even though the battery bundled is BL-4CT. Using the multimedia capabilities literally 'drink every drop' of the battery charge, so carrying a charger or a backup battery when going on long journeys is a must. Thats one point Nokia has to work onto. The phone is quite slim and comes with nice shiny handsfree headset, although a MicroSD Card(which it uses for secondry storage) and Data Cable is missing,while some other handsets in this segment have it,dont know what do the Nokia guys have in their mind.

Priced at Rs6200(Or simply around 150US$), the phone is a good buy, looking it as a whole.
