Ewan finishes his look at Nokia's OLED-screened N85...
In part 1, I looked at the i7110's hardware strengths and essential performance, in this, part 2, I do my best to look over the software situation.
After Rafe's first, detailed N85 hands-on, Ewan's taken over with a production device. Following on from his look at the hardware in part one, and the S60 software in part two, his investigation continues with the multimedia elements.
You'll have already seen Rafe's exhaustive review of the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, the first S60 5th Edition phone: Intro and Hardware, Multimedia, Software and Compatibility. In this review feature, Steve Litchfield gives his own slant on the device. Armed with production (9th Dec 2008) firmware, he critiques the 5800 XpressMusic from various standpoints.
Launched at the 2008 Symbian Smartphone Show, Samsung's i7110 drew a lot of admirers. But getting past Steve Litchfield's high standards will take some doing. Has the i7110 got what it takes? This is part 1 of a two part AAS review.
Ewan starts his review of the Nokia N85...
In part three of our in-depth Nokia 5800 XpressMusic preview, Rafe looks at the remaining software on the phone, explains third party software compatibility and draws some conclusions.
In part two of our in-depth Nokia 5800 XpressMusic preview Rafe looks at multimedia capabilities of the phone. In part 1 of the review I covered the 5800's hardware / design and touch implementation.
NB: Before reading on, it's worth looking at Rafe's comprehensive preview of the Nokia N79, looking at its unique selling points and market positioning.
In this review, Steve Litchfield reports back on two weeks' use of a full production N79. What's good, what's bad and what's yet to be fixed?
