Although there are a lot of good things about the Nokia C7 - the build quality, design, maps and battery life - we can't overlook the huge pain in the neck that is the operating system. With a better, cleaner operating system this could be a great hand...
The Nokia C7’s price tag of around £329 SIM-free makes it good competition for both mid-range phones such as the HTC Wildfire and the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro, and high-end phones such as the Nokia N8. The Nokia C7 is a good multimedia phone ...
The Nokia C7 features a large 3.5-inch AMOLED screen. With multi-touch technology, it's the perfect device for browsing the internet or flicking through your photographs. The display is also made out of glass, and it's surprisingly robust.The design of the Nokia C7 is also a high point, with the handset avoiding the bulky camera casing found on the Nokia N8. Instead, you'll find a curvy design, w
Unlike the Nokia N8, the Nokia C7's camera does without Carl Zeiss optics and autofocus. The resulting photographs are still pin-sharp, but depth of field suffers as a result. The Symbian ^3 operating system will also prove too clunky for some. It still works well – proving responsive and versatile – but it's not as intuitive as rivals and takes some getting used to.
The Nokia C7 is a feature-packed smartphone. It may lack the ease of use of the Apple iPhone, but it counters with a robust and stylish design, and its operating system offers a lot more versatility. It's also set to be a lot cheaper than its rivals. B...
Sturdy, attractive steel case; great battery life; responsive capacitive touchscreen; decent camera
Software isn't as easy to use as competing offerings; weak calendar and email services; terrible on-screen keyboard; lame widgets
The Nokia C7 smart phone looks and feels the steely business, and its battery life defines 'stamina'. But it's not as much fun to use as many Android phones available for the same price....
A cheap alternative for Symbian fans, but noone elseAs with the Nokia N8, Symbian 3 on the Nokia C7 won’t win any converts – in the same price bracket, only the camera makes it a better purchase than the Android HTC Legend. But there’s no denying Nokia...
Qualcomm Snapdragon 835, Small size, Promised battery life

Responsive screen; Flash video support; good battery life
Text input can be awkward; mediocre browser; expensive; Android and iOS4 offer better usability, Rating:
A solid effort from Nokia, the C7 is very similar to the N8 in a number of key areas and will please Nokia fans. However, at £320 SIM-free, the C7 isn't the cheapest device on the market and, with the Motorola Milestone XT720 being just £10 more, we w...
Good camera, FM transmitter, Good video playback, Neat build, Great battery life
Poor Twitter/Facebook integration with contacts, Symbian^3 disappoints, Web browser issues, Can't force constant Wi-Fi connection, Difficult to get to microSD card
The Nokia C7 packs plenty of punch. But it might be let down by Symbian^3, which doesn't bowl us over. Pity that, as Nokia is probably stuck with it for a while to come...
