The Nokia 7610 phone during its debut caused a real wave of discussion among a really huge audience. At one time, the device was the first in terms of equipping a megapixel camera. However, the model has a few more technical (and not only) features that favorably distinguish the device from competitors. There are also some improvements. But for some reason, the Finnish manufacturer did not decide to advertise such moments, which, it seems, will forever remain a mystery. Well, we will skip the background of the creation of the device, moving on to the consideration of technical parameters.
Nokia 7610 Specifications
The phone entered the international mobile arena in 2004. The device works in cellular networks of the GSM range. The second generation C60, the first package, is installed as a hardware platform. The operating system is represented by Symbian 7th version. Processor - ARM family. Its clock frequency is 123 megahertz.

If you keep talking without interruption, then the phone will last about 3 hours.

The digital zoom allows you to enlarge the shooting area up to four times. The frame rate for video recording is 15 frames per second. The resolution of photos and videos is 1152 x 864 and 176 x 144 respectively.
Appearance
Smartphone Nokia 7610, software for which you can find by referring to the official website of the Finnish manufacturer of mobile devices, has an original and sophisticated design. Here, the features of many other products were collected and manifested, and together they gave a very interesting result. The corners are slightly rounded, have the shape of drops. And this cannot help but indicate to us the use of the ideas embodied in the 7600 model. At the same time, glossy plastic, or rather its use, is quite typical for the fashion devices of the Finnish company. Another point that has a positive effect on the style of the device is the silver edging that runs along the perimeter of the screen. Such a peculiar chic, to be honest.
Color schemes
Nokia 7610, the firmware of which may be needed to ensure the correct operation of the device, was released to the mobile phone market in two colors. We are talking about red, as well as milky white options. Both of these modifications look good in their own way. Probably, in the latter there will still be less intrigue than in dark red. However, it is impossible to unequivocally answer the question of which user group which color option is intended for. Probably both solutions belong to the unisex group. Special thanks to the engineers and designers of the company must be said for the possibility of installing interchangeable panels. Thanks to their presence, the device is very easy to update externally. This helps in situations where the phone is dropped on the ground and the panels are indamaged as a result. By the way, these elements have no backlash, everything is assembled quite well and with high quality.
Keyboard
This is nothing but a design element of the model. However, the desire to sit on two chairs at once is not enough for anyone to end successfully and well, and the Finnish manufacturer, when trying to do this, was still unlucky. Yes, the keyboard may have turned out to be original, but the functionality of the block had to be sacrificed for this. A huge number of questions and complaints from users are associated with this particular hardware. Often ask their questions and those who are just going to purchase this unit. They again ask about the features of the keyboard unit. Probably, to say that the keyboard is inconvenient to use is still impossible. A lot depends on habit here. It may not be very comfortable to work with her at first. Nevertheless, after a certain period of operation, it will be quite difficult to refuse such a decision. Here the keyboard is made much better and more convenient than in the same Nokia 3650. A parallel can also be drawn with the 6000 model. Only in the opposite sense. The main drawback lies in the vertical row on the right. Here the buttons are small, and their movement is not so great. When pressed, there is a certain discomfort, as well as when typing voluminous text messages.
Backlight
The backlight is blue. If the version of the phone is localized (that is, the buttons are markeddesignations of two languages), then it will be quite difficult to notice all the characters under certain conditions. The letters of the secondary language, due to the peculiarities of the application of paint, and also due to some peculiarities of the illumination, will merge into one. These problems appeared in the corresponding modifications of the phone. Another question remains why the designers and engineers did not foresee the possibility of such a flaw and did not take action to resolve this problem.
Display
The display matrix is made using TFT technology. Color reproduction - at around 65 million shades. Model 6600 has similar parameters. The screen resolution is 176 by 208 pixels. In centimeters, this is 35 by 41. You can display a service line on the display, and even 8 lines of text. In fact, the screen is made quite well, especially if you compare the device with its closest competitors in this parameter. However, there are some drawbacks. The picture, though alive, but the saturation is a little lacking. The brightness is not the same, maybe. Colors seem somewhat muted. In general, there are certain problems (though not critical) with contrast. Note that the display is not bad for its segment. But now we are talking about a smartphone, so we should not compare the subject of our today's review with ordinary mobile devices. Although it is possible to read the information in sunlight, the picture on the screen of the device fades very, very strongly. It's possibleput it on the list of shortcomings of the device.
Top end
Here is a key that is responsible for turning the device on and off. It is made of rubber and has a small size. Clicking on this control is quite difficult and problematic. This, of course, negatively affects the quality of work with the smartphone we are considering. On the other hand, it also has its advantages. For example, such a design saves from accidental button presses.
Bottom end
Here we have the PopPort interface connector. Not far from it perched a port designed to connect a charger to a smartphone. There is no jack for a wired stereo headset or computer headphones. That is why listening to music, if you want, you will have to use an ordinary speaker.
Let's remind readers that cool themes for Nokia 7610 can be found on the official website of the manufacturer of mobile phones of the corresponding brand, and we turn to the results of the article. Now, based on the feedback from the owners of the device, we will try to highlight the key advantages and disadvantages of the device.
Reviews
So, among the strengths, users note the camera, as well as the good quality of communication. This also includes the presence of a port designed for installing external memory drives. Among the shortcomings, reviews highlight a weak vibrating alert and a poor-quality speaker, the lack of a special jack for connecting a wired stereo headset.
