5730 XpressMusic smartphone – a simple review
Nov 9th
What do you expect from a music phone? With its 5730 XpressMusic, the latest addition to Nokia’s music-centric portfolio, a slide out QWERTY keyboard is slipped into the mix, as Nokia makes a play for the music fan who wants some heavyweight messaging muscle to go with top-of-the-bill tune-playing.
While some of Nokia’s earlier XpressMusic models were trim with a few music controls but light on high-end gadgetry, the 5730 is a chunky candybar that crams in plenty of tech stuff.
It runs on the non-touchscreen Symbian S60 3rd Edition smartphone platform, packs HSDPA high speed mobile data connectivity and Wi-Fi, and includes A-GPS satellite positioning inside. An 8GB MicroSD memory card is supplied in-box too.
Its QWERTY keyboard is in place to handle a multitude of text messaging, email, and instant messaging duties, and for a bit of online social networking and internet browsing.

Nokia unveils low cost 3G phones in India
May 18th
Nokia 2730 Classic
Nokia has unveiled three new low cost 3G enabled phones
aimed at emerging markets. The new models announced are Nokia 2730 Classic, Nokia 2720 Fold and Nokia 7020.
All three phones are Internet-ready, and work with Nokia’s range of emerging market services such as Nokia Life Tools and Ovi Mail. Let’s now delve into the finer details of each of the devices.
The 2730 Classic is a classic candybar phone featuring a decent spec sheet. It comes packed with a 2-inch QVGA (320*240) display, a micro USB connector, 30MB of expandable memory and Bluetooth 2.0. The phone is 3G ready and supports EDGE as well. The camera is a 2 megapixel unit with 4x digital zoom. The phone also comes with a standard 3.5mm jack. The phone will be available in the second quarter of this year at a price of Rs. 5,300.
Nokia 2720 Fold
The Nokia 2720 Fold, as evident from the name, is a clamshell phone. This one will be slotted below the 2730 Classic. On the features front, this one sports a 1.8 inch display with a resolution of 128*160. It comes with 32MB of memory with no memory expansion capabilities, which I must say is unwarranted for. However, it does sport a 1.3 megapixel camera which should keep you happy. The 2720 is not 3G ready but supports EDGE. Bluetooth 2.0 support is present as well. This one is expected to make its debut in the fourth quarter of this year at an expected price of Rs. 3,600.
Nokia 7020
Lastly, we have the 7020 which again is a clamshell phone. This one however is feature packed as compared to the 2720. The 7020 sports a 2.2 inch, QVGA display. The phone comes with 45MB of internal memory with support for memory expansion. On the imaging front, there is a 2 megapixel camera thrown in as well. This is a Quad band GSM phone
with EDGE support. 3G however seems to be missing. Expect this one to grace your palms by the fourth quarter of this year at an approximate price tag of Rs. 6,000.
