| Nokia’s new candybar
Nokia, with the N79 manages to
cram a ton of great technology into an easy to carry candybar model. Available
in two colors, this phone looks great and functions very well. Anyone would do
well to incorporate this into their mobile lifestyle. If you are a person
looking for a sleek phone to keep up with your bust lifestyle, look no further
than the N79.
This phone has a wonderful
Quad-Band GSM connection to keep you in touch with your closest contacts. Taking
advantage of the newest technology available, there is a Dual-Band 3G connection
in order to download files at a fast rate. Nokia never short-hands when it comes
to dealing out the latest advancements in cell phone technology and the N79 is a
prime example of that promise.
The screen delivers colors in
a vibrant 16M and by utilizing the 2.4-inch screen you will be able to see all
the icons very easily. For navigation around the menu system there are a couple
options that the N79 gives. First is the touch-sensitive navi wheel which is
perfect for speeding around the various menus without slowly going through each
sub-menu individually.
There are lots of features
here to keep you occupied and connected. GPRS, EDGE, 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and
USB are all present and ready to perform to your high standards. The operating
system is Nokia’s snappy Symbian OS 9.3 which makes calling, texting, and
organizing a breeze. The included browser does a good job of managing websites
and handles content-heavy content just fine.
The 5 Megapixel Camera is an
absolute blast to use. Pictures come out in clear quality while retaining all
their color and sharpness. The resolution on these phones is 2592x1944 which
strikes the right balance between size and detail. Other fine features to go
along with the camera include the Carl Zeiss optics, autofocus feature, and
video recording. Never before has such a powerful camera been included with a
cell phone this size, and burgeoning photographers would do well to add this to
their collection.
