Flagman fashionable series L'Amour Nokia 7390 has once again proved the fairness new trend: branding phone must be quite functional. On the other hand, the modern market offers a large number of machines in which design, as opposed to technical component, given special attention. Therefore, both fashionable and functional model could prove very popular. Design and ergonomics Visually Nokia 7390 is a classic Scandinavian extra bed manufacturer. Image forming shell model represented metal inserts with ornaments and colors, which is chosen in the light of women's, men's and target audiences. Earlier in the L'Amour Collection dominated not very functional telephones. In tests in Onliner went "masculine", a black version of Nokia 7390. First and foremost would like to mention the quality of materials and assembly Packaging model. The phone used black plastic, which is not visible scratches all elements fitted tightly; there is not a hint of movement or other construction deficiencies. Box and the front panel keys - metal. Ornament inserts in male and female models different. Right at the upper end of the strap to provide anchorage. On the back panel you can see the speaker box from the shell of dense resistant to scratches the skin, which helps phone not slide on a sloping surface. Painted plastic part, although because of the characteristic luster recalled metal. Battery compartment lid is a thin, highly susceptible, but it did not break so easily. Besides, installed window 3 - megapixel camera and LED outbreak. Connector microSD memory card format under the rear lid, but could not retrieve vehicle removing the battery. Several model for the image does not have covered at the connectors, but the Nokia 7390 case in this way: 2.5-millimeter headphone output and USB port, acting as the interface connector mounted on the lower front. Nest to connect ZU at the top of the right front. Expand the phone with one hand problematic because mechanism is very weak. Above the screen is the camera for the front edge of the third-generation networks, and next to it - for LED illumination person in the dark. Internal display and keyboard also metal fittings, but there ornament the same for both models colors. Under the keyboard unit noticeable lattice dynamics. Volume fairly even when the phone is in the folded state. Above grate installed rubber gasket, could not come halves. Because of the dynamics of the microphone had to be moved to the top of the shell, but on the quality of conversation is usually not affected, because accidentally cover located on the right valve hole quite difficult. The keyboard, joystick and other elements of governance are convenient to use, Sydney softly and clearly. Contour and the central key are convex enough to exclude casual pressing neighboring elements. Domestic fairly large buttons and external well, so the problems with their use will not even owners of long nails. Little power key unusually located on the right front. The buttons let you control the display of external camera, audio and radio. In order to avoid accidental pressing them can be easily blocked. Same screen has almost ideal angles review and color. The same can be said of the internal display: it is one of the best on the market. However, the brightness of the two screens is clearly insufficient. Menu and function Program Nokia 7390 is based on the same platform as the Nokia 5200 (we tested previously) - this S40 FP2. But to use this model is much easier than the same Nokia 5200, because of higher screen resolutions. Furthermore, the representative of L'Amour-series comes with a rich set of graphics and sound. Freeport places in the phone is about 25 Mb (out of 30 available), but given the availability of slots for memory cards is not fatal. All applications, including A2DP profile player and, in so similar Nokia 5200. Quality BEHRINGER above average. Work equalizer marked feature stereo expansion also felt. Connecting on USB perhaps in one of three modes: a removable drive, systemic treatment for work with PC Suite player and a special regime for "fueling" music via Windows Media Player, or compatible program. Among other things worth noting dating application for Nokia Sensor, as well as up-to-date fan shopping for a programme of world-converter size shoes and clothes. Games just four: three-dimensional rally, three-dimensional Snake, flash-game and inherited from the Nokia 5200 Music Guess. The latter, with an extensive media library carries away a long time. Productivity average phone. Compare it with the already mentioned can be representative of the same programmatic platform, but better results Nokia 5200 is more due to the low-resolution display. Camera Photographs obtained juicy and bright, Auto excellent job with its work. Q negative sides camera is often mistaken include automatic white balance and color effects a small number of (black-and-white, sepia, negative). Maximum permission photo - 1536 h2048. Keep a snapshot can be in three modes quality. The quality of the video - one of the best to date. When solving a maximum 640 х480 and no restrictions on the length of the file allows the Nokia 7390 to withdraw even filmi, but dynamic scenes may appear squares and artifacts. The latter can be corrected in the new version of firmware, as a programmatic problem - simply lacked the video bitrate. In general, the work of the special chamber claims it is, and all the usual standard (except for high-resolution, of course). The impressions and conclusions Like any branding device, Nokia 7390 will be its buyer primarily due to an attractive appearance. However, the phone can be safely recommended to all the demanding functionality to users. Problems with the display will likely be addressed in an updated version of the firmware, although the bulk of consumers certainly did not know about it. On the positive side has been the model of pleasing appearance, quality corps and keyboard, as well as fairly extensive functionality. Less Nokia 7390 is primarily a lack of software. Task same audience L'Amour Collection this feature, according to the manufacturer, is not needed.

Nokia 6500 slide, according to the index, belongs to a series of business phones. This can be seen as accurate stylish design and support of the four GSM bands and two UMTS. At the same time, extensive multimedia functions, a powerful camera, the ability to output images on TV make apparatus beyond business class. Design Design slider made in the traditional style to the Finnish producer. Nokia 6500 phones recall existing in the first place because of the keyboard unit. Nevertheless, the model draws attention, and looks very stylish. The body and chassis are made of metal. Outside of the hull - it is stainless steel. Facial parties have expressed an invoice. Inscriptions on the casing and keys engraved and painted resistant black paint. The chassis is made of a thick metal. Its visible part located on the back of the upper halves and around the numeric keypad, painted black. Removing the battery compartment lid, can be seen fixing memory card, and under it - slot for a SIM card. Both are unavailable during a rechargeable battery. Details attached to the main motherboard using plastic element. He runs the entire perimeter of the bottom halves. Visible top and bottom black lacquered parts belong to him. He also attached metal lining and side. Note that the manufacturer did not hide as usual fixing screws. Previously found only in such models and Series 8 xxx Vertu phones. Subjectively, both apparatus looks more blatantly, but perhaps more firmly and qualitatively. However, even when closed, when the retention hidden, the phone looks expensive. After multiple complaints on the quality of implementation slider in N80 and N95, in the 6500 model (as well as in the 6110 Navigator), the company was able to realize just excellent and fastening mechanism. Even rabid fans Bugs Samsung will be happy. Both halves ideally sit in their seats when the phone is closed, and very quietly move if opened. Minimum course (less than one millimeter), we may experience during a keyboard in front of the opened slider. Actually, this feature virtually invisible. It can be detected only when specifically draw attention. Disclose and help close the apparatus special rubber strips below the display. However, its design is such that traces a finger on the screen will still remain. The thickness of the shell (16.4 mm) is far from record levels. It is more than the E65, but less than the 6110 Navigator, or N95. Staff conveniently fits in the palm, they are convenient to use. And, in the open and closed all the keys are in their seats. Problem with no ergonomics at all, unless, of course, does not take into account the complexity of access to the memory card. All interface connectors (microUSB, 2.5 mm for the charger) installed at the upper end of the opening next to the mouse button battery compartment lid. At the end of the right keys were loud and cameras, on the left - for the attachment of the strap. Above the display are the voice speaker, camera and sensor for edge lighting. His loudness and quality slightly above average. Nothing outstanding, it is acceptable. Standard keys on the front panel are made for the general background of the shell. Some of them crying pronounced texture may not like. Ergonomics buttons just excellent. Convenient contour, replacing the joystick is looming over the hull, so the user from accidental pressing. Digital keyboard also attracted to emotions. The top number has been removed from the hull, so access to the keys is not difficult. 2,2-inch QVGA display shows excellent image. Slightly changing the brightness is tilted, but it is not prevented. The last parameter is set automatically by the sensor lighting. It can not customize the menu. This feature extends the time an autonomous work. Damage from the additional glass screen protected. This wonderful feature underlines the quality of the construction corps and brings even more expensive device to a series of 8 xxx. Functionality Review of programming part can be seen in the article about the Nokia 7500 Prism. Both apparatus constructed on the basis of Nokia S40 5th Edition, and have similar features. The main differences from the previous platform - improved player with skins support, unified communications and editor support MIDP 2.1. The user is available 20 MB of memory. Productivity in the tests is at a level similar Bugs Nokia and slightly above average. The list of supported profiles is: A2DP, AVRCP, DUN, FTP, GAP, GAVDP, GOEP, HFP, HSP, OPP, SAP, SDAP, SDP, and SPP. There is support for wireless stereo and other necessary profile. Transfer files via USB are in the order of the speed of 1.5 MB / s or less. This is a rather slow. When connecting cables being charging the phone. For Nokia devices is still a rarity. In the future, this feature will support all phones microUSB-connector. Recall charger and headphones connected to dedicated interfaces, which is very convenient. The list of games is: backgammon Backgammon 2, golf Golf Tour, poker Highroller Casino, Race Rally 3D, Snake Snake 3. List of appendices: converter values Opera mini, Presenter, Download, Search, Sensor, world time, Yahoo! Go. Nothing new is not found. Very pleased with the extensive list of games and the availability of Sensor. For the first time we saw him in 5200 and the Nokia 5300. The user is invited to go through nearby Bluetooth phones Nokia owners with similar interests, which can be set using the Sensor. FM radio only works with a wired headset connected. Supports Visual Radio, autosearch and RDS. In memory stores up to 20 channels. Everything that is happening on the display can be displayed on the TV screen with the cable package. The quality of images produced is the same as the N95, N93 and other devices with this feature. Notably, the first Finnish company has set this option is not in the smartphone. There are settings images: PAL / NTSC, 4:3 / 16:9. Time autonomous work can be guessed after a cursory look at the complete set. It is standard for this class of phones. Battery BP-5M allows dispensing with the charger 2 - 3 days. If there is a USB cable and quarantine work at home, this option is less critical. This is already a step forward, because sooner with intensive use had to buy another charger for emergency or kredl charges in the workplace. Camera The proud inscription Carl Zeiss promises high quality pictures. For all calibration is a little worse. Providing excellent rendition, a beautiful white balance and exposure good shots saved with a high compression ratio, even when the maximum level of quality. Around the fine details appear glamour compression artifacts, and photography seems slightly blurry. There are also other drawbacks. Auto often misses when shooting at close range, sometimes dark plots obtained dark green, moving objects may be smearing. It works fast enough. Appreciably faster than in the N95, or N73. On the positive points also include up-to-date-LED outbreak. You can, of course, and get exposed frame, but it is more the exception than the rule. Conclusions The Nokia 6500 is wonderfully designed, packaged as a high-quality and durable metal body. The model is well and firmly in looks, has a very comfortable keyboard and runs under the latest version of Nokia S40 platform. The user carried a number of multimedia features: 3 - megapixel camera with the possibility of shooting in VGA video-solving, the ability to output images on TV. Among the weaknesses - the lack of "hot" replacing the memory card and normal for this class of devices, but still too weak battery. List merits Nokia 6500 incomparably greater. At this time, the price of high slider, which allows buyers to feel themselves owners of exclusive apparatus? By year end, it should drop, which will make the phone almost ideal and worthy replacement Nokia 6300 and 6233.
