Nokia N78 review

 

Is this sleek mobile the only phone you need?

Classy, minimalist look ; Decent 3.2 megapixel camera ; A-GPS sat nav ; 2GB microSDcard with maps and tunes

Awkward keypad ; Rear cover feels cheap

Feature-packed smartphone with plenty to admire

Nokia N78 mobile phone

 

Described by some as a Nokia N96 lite, can the N78 prove its worth on its own merits? We get playing and dialling to find out. The Nokia N78 is yet another phone from Nokia that Nokia fans will be happy with.

Feature packed, HSDPA, Wi-Fi, GPS, geotagging, camera, FM transmitter

Clumsy design

The Nokia N78 is yet another phone from Nokia that Nokia fans will be happy with.

Nokia N78

 

Truly, the appearance of the N-series handset has never been considered attractive. It is rather associated with the aerodynamic weight of the formula 1 fireballs, which is kind of scary, but obviously achieves the maximum results. “Chronic diseases”...

The new N78 device, nowadays, in terms of program plans, is the most advanced software solution from Nokia. Unfortunately, from both sides of that model enclose the veteran model N73 and relatively new N82, similar to the functional set, and...

What's in a number? It all depends on what the number is related to in the current circumstances.

According to popular legend, when the number belongs to a bus, you will have just missed it with several more only due to appear after a lengthy interval. If the number concerns your salary then it is never large enough to satisfy your hoped for...

It's not as feature-rich as the N82 or N95 8GB, but this slimline candybar is a worthy successor to the N73 in the feature stakes. Nokia N78 is tagged with Nokia, geotagging, satnav, HSDPA, 3G, mobile phone and GPS device. Select a tag (Nokia, for...

Nokia N78 review

 

Nokia's latest Nseries phone, the N78, is built for navigation, video and web browsing. What's not to like apart from the slightly hollow finish?…

Great sat nav, camera, music player and web browsing

The plastic rear casing feels a little flimsy and the keys are fiddly

You can't fault the Nokia N78 for features and functions, but the plastic casing feels a little hollow for a premium-end handset.
