My first smartphone, at 2011... And Nokia C7 has NFC too... I love C7 cuz their memory is bigger. 8GB internal, user get 7.45GB. 8MP camera with a clear view, Symbian Belle (upgradable from Anna), metal body. Fast respond than all Android phone, even with RAM 768MB and Processor 680Mhz. Flashlight has the brightest than my brother android. I used it almost 2 years before got stolen by someone. I wonder... Nokia have much idea to create a new C7, or simillar phone like N8, with Snapdragon/ Intel inside, more RAM, more memory, and Android inside. If they really make it happen... I will definitely buy that!!!
The C7 does not have a "fixed" focus camera. It has a FULL focus camera. There's a big difference. Specifically, it's called an Extended Depth of Field (EDoF) camera.
There are a few things more important than anything else in a cell-phone for me and for many folks, Sound quality, battery life, reception and reliability, This phone seems to have it all, + free GPS for life, which is a bonus. Thanks for the video..
@PhoneArena Could you or anyone else tell me two things: 1. How good and reliable is the touch screen? and 2. what's the battery life running different applications?
@tripleWithV C7 doesnt have CBD but C6-01 has it, then C7 has 8GB built in memory where with C6-01 you need an extra SD card..then C6-01 is only 3.2 inches screen
Would you recommend this over the Samsung Wave 2 S8530 ? It has a better processor but do you think it would really matter on a phone. Suggestions please.
I love it. Everything is perfect, well the camera has issues at close range but it so good outdoors. My favorite thing about it is the design. Man it looks like it's from the future. Bought it and happy with it :)
@mbisar i don't know how many GBS does the e72 have but the c7 has an 8Mpx Camera and an 8Gb internal memory. it supports micro sd cards of even 32 GB,
@gs0995 it starts when you pull the lock button and hold it for a few seconds... its not a problem, its the flashlight torch feature. to switch it off just once again long pull the lock button... its an amazing phone, I own it and am proud of it... enjoy
@SuperDon10000 i wanna ask a question please do u think the nokia c7 is useful because i might recevie one at the end of these month thank u waiting for reply
i have nokia n97 mini using from last one year, i just got lil touch roughness in it so i went to nokia care, now they are exchanging my n97 mini and giving c7, should i go for it ?
How can there be no auto focus on an 8mp camera? Love the hardware but the software needs an overhaul in the looks department. Nice phone overall though.
@PhoneArena I watched this video and the Motorola MILESTONE XT720 video and i'm stuck. They both are at wind now and i am more interested in these two phones. I really look at how fast the phone is and the camera because I really like taking pics on my phone and downloading widgets but I also use my phone a lot. which one would you recommend? -peaceorrock56
is there any difference between Nokia e72 and Nokia c7 in the gbs application im interested in gbs and if there is no difference i will buy e 72 or e5 please help ..
@underdograza either you plug your c7 in the computer and check your phone there you find your hard disks or you could go in to applications in your phone then office then file mgr and there you find all memory info
Can confirm this device support clear black display? i've call nokia careline they said support but before that i got email them but they said don't support. SO may i know is is support or not? Thanks.
@avifb It was confirmed on Nokia Conversations. "arja @ Nokia Communications [Moderator] 1 month ago The Nokia E7 and Nokia C6-01 have a display featuring Nokia ClearBlack technology. However, the Nokia C7 and N8 do not."
@Actique In pristine condition and running fine (with C6 Custom Firmware) for 2.5 years. Always used an Otterbox commuter case on this phone...so no damages...not even a scratch. It's now my backup phone...very reliable. The custom firmware with homescreen widgets was a big plus.
I mean, nokia has 8mp camera, dual flash and aluminium cover.. samsung has no flash, 5mp camera and plastic cover.. BUT! touch might be better in samsung and there are more apps I think.. PLEASE, HELP ME DECIDE!! GIMME SOME PRO AND CONS..
@Froanite No autofocus which most phones out there do not have. you have full focus all the time. Even in the Iphone 4 you have to tap to focus on something which is unpractical.
@Betanmtb N8 offers a superb AF Carl Zeiss 12MP camera with Xenon flash (Best in Class), C7 offers a more basic/general purpose 8MP Full Focus with dual LED. N8 has HDMI video output, C7 only composite VGA. C7 has a removable battery with back cover; N8 has a replaceable battery with a proper tool kit. N8 has hot swappable Micro SD, C7's micro SD in not hot swappable. N8 has double the on board memory at 16GB. N8 comes in more colors. N8 has single piece annodized Aluminum case.
The video quality was bad because your camera lense was dirty, I've noticed with E7 that it acts just like that if the lense is filled with grease of fingers.
Problem !! Can't solve it !! It is offline ...inspite of a simcard is inserted . It says : Insert a simcard !! I tried to manage it through settings ...but still no outcome . Don't know whether it's a software or hardware issue . Do you have an advice ?
@blindwitness90 It's an EDoF...a very compact camera which allows for a thin profile with no camera bump/ump on the back. Will not do macro but performs well in good lighting. Everything beyond 2 feet from lens is in focus. Hence the term FULL Focus. For video, it's nice because there is no AF lag. But it is not very good in poor lighting, even with dual LED's.
Im trying to find the 2 pre downloaded games this phone had. Just wanna feel the nostalgia. I was sooo triggered when he almost pressed the “games” folder and then dint press it. Can anyone help me find the games?

Throwback to my first smartphone

Who is here for nostalgia
its gone 1 month after getting phone but i m still in doubt that does it have Gorilla Glass display? some blogs says yes and some no.......

Hindami Kartika I had this idea for a while.. make a bigger Nokia C7 and with today's specs.
Thanks for the comprehensive review of the C7. The video would really influence my choice in choosing the phone or not [:
Bought mine today and so far its amazing! Nokia make such a good phone i love it.

ahmmm, does c7 feature dual cam, where you can take pictures on back and front camera?
my audio is to low, hardly heard his explanation :(
why have i seen multiple videos with monsters vs aliens in with the nokia c7? is it a standard thing with the phone?
Despite the screen getting too much finger prints, isn't there something called a screen protector ?
Strange for the sim card slot to be above the battery and the sd card below it. Usually the other way round
@PhoneArena
Could you or anyone else tell me two things:
1. How good and reliable is the touch screen? and
2. what's the battery life running different applications?

This was my first phone
Oh my gooddddd 😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂
Would you recommend this over the Samsung Wave 2 S8530 ? It has a better processor but do you think it would really matter on a phone. Suggestions please.
that phone looks damn good!! is it worth of its price? and whatya think about the camera and web? coz i might buy this phone...
Awesome phone it fits perfectly in the hands and pocket.
I love it. Everything is perfect, well the camera has issues at close range but it so good outdoors. My favorite thing about it is the design. Man it looks like it's from the future. Bought it and happy with it :)
How are apps? Is facebook good on this phone? I love making playlists. Does this phone allow you to make playlists?
Hows the battery ?
I believe Nokia has the best battery and even if we listen to music or surf internet constantly it does not get drained .
@mbisar i don't know how many GBS does the e72 have but the c7 has an 8Mpx Camera and an 8Gb internal memory. it supports micro sd cards of even 32 GB,
had the c3 for a while thinking abt upgrading
it's time to upgrade, miss.
I did twice. this was a long time ago
@gs0995 it starts when you pull the lock button and hold it for a few seconds... its not a problem, its the flashlight torch feature. to switch it off just once again long pull the lock button... its an amazing phone, I own it and am proud of it... enjoy
how much
@ajaybully but it has a TV out, so we still able to show contents on big screens, right?
Reviews would be a lot better if you would show the keyboard and talk about the typing and texting experience.

@Froanite No autofocus which most phones out there do not have. you have full focus all the time. Even in the Iphone 4 you have to tap to focus on something which is unpractical.
