It was brilliant. It also got dropped in water. Insurance sent me various flavors of braindead and broken phones (Pearl 8100, Samsung SGH-a707, W580i, LG Shine CU720) before office of the President stepped in and gave me $200 to buy this phone. It beats them all.<br /><br />PROS:<br />It runs a real smartphone OS, which means real applications and real PDA functionality.<br /><br />The camera is fantastic. Pictures are crisp and vibrant. Video could be passed off as coming from one of those "Flip Video" sort of cameras.<br /><br />The media player flat-out makes sense. It's easy to use, lets you send it to the background, and holding a button (with the most recent firmware) immediately brings up the 'Now Playing'.<br /><br />Battery life has not been a problem. It's not quite the ten days my old <br />W810i managed, but it's by no means bad. I use it moderately and charge it every third day. Charging is incredibly quick.<br /><br />At the maximum brightness the screen is uncomfortably bright, which is a very good thing.<br /><br />In the Nokia tradition, RF, signal acquisition and holding, and voice quality are stellar. Calls are loud and clear, and my mom can't be convinced I'm not on a landline. The speakers on the top are loud and clear.<br /><br />CONS:<br />The keyboard is a bit cramped, but I'm used to that sort of thing. The joystick is a bit low-rent.<br /><br />The front camera is dreadful, but you already knew that.<br /><br />It uses Nokia's smaller, spindlier charging connector (but comes with an adapter - don't bin that old charger just yet) and Pop-Port. They're not flawed, but a 3.5mm headset jack and miniUSB are better at this sort of thing.<br /><br />It is quite thick.<br /><br />Symbian OS v9.1 requires applications to be signed. There is no surefire workaround for this. It's occasionally slow.<br /><br />No SDHC support means you're limited to 2GB, and miniSD means yet another adapter.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=960 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=27423#review27423 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=27423#review27423 Thu, 24 Jan 2008 08:19:19 GMT <p><i>bladefilms submitted this review of the Nokia N73:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I can't complain about this phone.

I like the symbian operating system. While I miss the touch screen of my pda, this is a great phone. Calls sound good, not land line good, but good. With moderate use, the battery will last for several days. You can add apps like gmail mobile, mobile maps, shozu, and fring. The upload feature allows you to upload pictures directly to flickr. The music player is nice, but you don't have A2DP for stereo bluetooth. The headphone volume is just loud enough, but in noisy situations you may wish to have headphones with their own volume function. <br /><br />It's a great buy!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=960 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=22095#review22095 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=22095#review22095 Fri, 16 Mar 2007 01:08:54 GMT <p><i>Steven2420 submitted this review of the Nokia N73:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>After months and months with Windows Mobile Devices, I switched back to a Symbian platform,and I am very happy I did. The stability of Symbian is a refreshing change from freeze-ups and reboots, and hard resets. Acknowledging that there is NO perfect OS available, I would rate the Symbian OS one of the best on the market. I purchased mine (N73-ME-Black) from Phonesource.com, and I am extremely pleased.<br /><br />PROS:<br /><br />Great RF, Nokia, "You think"<br />Beautiful and very large screen-QVGA-very bright and crystal clear<br />The handset is light and easy to grip, and feels very solid<br />Battery is typical Nokia, it "loves you long time"<br />The keys are a very firm and have a nice click to them when pressed<br />Nice joystick, easy to use and very responsive<br />Internet is super fast, although not 3G, you really do not notice<br />Bluetooth is good, no issues so far<br />Camera (3.2MP) is the best feature, almost too good to believe on a phone. I have heard many people say that is not important, and that is fine. Use this camera and then tell me that!!!!! It is just as good as my 5MP Canon Camera.<br />Music Player is 2nd best feature, with stereo speakers on the top and bottom, the sound is as good as any ipod I have seen.<br /><br />CONS:<br /><br />No 3G, I love 3G<br />No WiFi, not a problem<br />Nokia Pop Port-wow-the evilness of proprietary hardware<br /><br />This is another great Nokia product, and for people that are looking for a business phone first, with good PIM exchange and fast e-mail, this is much better then a full blown Pocket PC!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=960 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=21504#review21504 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=21504#review21504 Sun, 04 Feb 2007 22:03:30 GMT <p><i>jasperakajc submitted this review of the Nokia N73:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>buy it =)</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=960 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=19804#review19804 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=19804#review19804 Fri, 10 Nov 2006 10:08:56 GMT <p><i>Ranjeev Dutt submitted this review of the Nokia N73:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>2</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I've had my new N73 for about 2 weeks now. The phone visually and functions wise is a dream. The camera is brilliant, the sd card storage is great(I splurged and got a 2 gig…well worth it). The multimedia player(s) are brilliant. The screen…fantastic…I’ve seen iPod’s with the same res. Unfortunately, I’ve had it back to Nokia Care 3 times now with hanging icons problems, jammed / dropped call problems(apparently due to “corrupted contacts” but their not so sure) and a few other issues. I had similar problems with my 6230 when I got it for 6 months before they were all finally sorted out. I’m willing to hang on…this is a top phone but Nokia really need to spend some more time on R and D to make the experience that more reliable for their customers.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=960 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=19619#review19619 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=19619#review19619 Wed, 01 Nov 2006 19:20:59 GMT <p><i>tspierings submitted this review of the Nokia N73:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This is the first smartphone that can really replace my iPaq pocketpc. I own this device 6 weeks and it is great.<br /><br />The size of the device is just within the maximum limits to be able to carry it in the pocket. (I find the N80 a little too bulky)<br /><br />Reception and sound quality outstanding. In combination with the Bluetooth Nokia carkit CK7W it works superbe. Hardly noise and no echo. <br /><br />As an MP3 player this can absolutely compete with my iPod (unfortunately MiniSD Cards do not come in bigger than 2 Gb yet). <br /><br />Screen is superb with QVGA. Finally it is usefull with TomTom GPS software. <br /><br />Multitasking works flawlessly. When I am using TomTom with the bluetooth GPS receiver, I can answer any phonecall in between (even with my CK7W bluetooth carkit). <br /><br />Keyboard is OK. In some reviews it was reported as troublesome but I find it good to work with. <br /><br />The camera is fairly good. It is the best quality I have ever seen in a smartphone. However, startup is very slow and in poor light conditions the picture quality is poor. Do not expect too much of the flash. <br /><br />A few not-so-good points. <br /><br />The Email application is crap. I cannot even delete messages. The same applies to the calendar application. (The default Calendar applications on Palm and PocketPc are crap as well). However, there are excellent alternatives for this. You should immediately purchase Papyrus calendar application and ProfiMail email application. Both are very good. <br /><br />I am not so happy with voice dialling. You can no longer save your own voice tags. However, this built-in intelligence does not work very well in some languages and frequently does not find a match. <br /><br />Where Nokia really missed it is with the accessories. There is no (powered) desk stand available. Why? All previous Nokias had this. Also, there is no powered car holder available. Why? Fortunately, Brodit has just launched a powered car holder that fits very well. <br /><br />Conclusion: Great mobile with all necessary PDA functions</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=960 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=19590#review19590 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=19590#review19590 Tue, 31 Oct 2006 04:43:25 GMT <p><i>Marioomobile submitted this review of the Nokia N73:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>so I waited a month to use and abuse to the phone before I do a complete review...<br />First off, I think this is the best phone I have ever owned and I've gone through ~100 phones, including all the high-end N-series<br /><br />The reception on the phone is incredible<br />The speakerphone blows any phone including the motorola phones that nextel puts out.<br />I love the broswer(same as all the other N-series)<br />With a few extra software installations, I don't even take my laptop to work/school (I also bought a wireless bluetooth keyboard)<br />The batter life is very good<br /><br />The only Con I can think of is because it is fairly new, Nokia hasn't put out a completely bug-free firmware</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=960 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=19542#review19542 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=19542#review19542 Sat, 28 Oct 2006 03:21:34 GMT <p><i>peyman99sf submitted this review of the Nokia N73:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Hi, I give this phone a perfect 5 out 5 for the following reason:<br /><br />Picture quality is as good as my digital camera.<br />The phone has dual stereo speakers so its very nice waking to the alarm in the morning<br /><br />Sound quality and speaker phone quality is the best, and I've used alot of phones...<br /><br />I also have the N80 and I would def. rate this higher<br /><br />CONS: <br />NONE</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=960 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=18729#review18729 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=18729#review18729 Mon, 11 Sep 2006 15:35:43 GMT <p><i>bothfly submitted this review of the Nokia N73:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I got the N73 a few weeks ago and thought it was a great phone.<br />First and foremost is the battery. It lasts a very long time. Calls, text, mms, internet and it goes and goes. I had gotten used to charging my phones every day to every other day. The N73 can go 3 days easy wit med/heavy use on a charge.<br />Second is the camera. The best shots I have ever seen on a phone. Auto focus is great. No blurry pic's and the flash gets it right. Here is one reason I picked the N73 over the D900. I have a 2 and 1/2 year old. Hard for her to stay still for a picture. The shutter lag on the D900 always made the shot blurry. On the N73, even though both phones have autofocus, the N73's shots come out clear and crisp. Can't figure out why, but the camera is worth the price.<br />As far as Nokia's UI, its near the top of the phone list with Sony. You can do anything with the UI on the N73. Saves pic's to the mem card. Plays MP3's as rigtones, FULL Mp3's not making you cut them down and save to the phones mem, like the D900. I could go on and on.<br />Yes, the D900 is super slim super cool slider phone with a 3 mega pixel camera. But it will frustrate you in a few days because of its limitations. Get the N73, and yes you will feel it bump around a bit in your shorts, but evertime you pull it out to use it, the phone that is. It will be great.<br />The 1 and only thing Nokia missed was leaving out the A2DP BT stereo support.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=960 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=18437#review18437 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=960&r=18437#review18437 Thu, 24 Aug 2006 23:50:13 GMT <p><i>themightylife submitted this review of the Nokia N73:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I bought this phone from an Ebay store for use with Cingular. I have had it for about a week and, so far, I am pretty happy.<br /><br />The multimedia functions of the phone are great. Music, video, photos, slide shows, etc. I have to say that the photos are only good in the best conditions. I was dissapointed that the camera was not nearly as sharp as my very tiny, 2.0mp Sony camera. The gallery mode is awesome!<br /><br />The size is pretty nice. It is almost the exact dimensions of a SLVR (but twice as thick). <br /><br />The biggest issue is that I still get those annoying 'out of memory' warnings that I got on my 6682. This is with all applications closed and plenty of room on my phon and SD card. What is going on Nokia?<br /><br />If you are a fan of the Symbian OS and you want to carry one device that will do photos, music, internet, video and, oh yeah, a phone... This is a good choice..<br /><br />Pros:<br />Size<br />Multimedia<br />Pretty Good Camera<br />Great Screen<br />Stereo speakers<br />Lots of Symbian apps<br /><br />Cons:<br />Memory errors.<br />earpice volume could be louder<br />Nokia Pop-port connector ( I am not a fan)</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=960
