Nokia 7500 Prism

With multiple facets like this the 7500 Prism certainly shouts "look at me!" But is it a case of styling over substance?

Nokia 7500 Prism

Nokia 7500 is not only the frontman of innovative designing solutions. Nokia 7500 specifications do not yield its appearance. Dihedral display of Nokia 7500 is one of the best in its class, has a resolution of 240×320 (2 inches diagonal, 31×41 mm) and...

Nokia - 7500 Prism

Nokia has come up with some quirky mobile phone designs in the past, often involving hardware fancifulness like twisting or swivelling. The 7500 Prism (and its cousin the 7900 Prism) displays a new take on the ...

Hardly brimming with features, you are likely to choose this mobile if the diamond-cut look appeals. But don't be seduced by its look in photos. Go into a store and check out how it feels to you before buying.

A Good Looking Phone : Nokia 7500 Prism

It sometimes surprises me how quickly mobile phones have come to be regarded as a fashion accessory rather than a useful tool.

According to my Concise Oxford Dictionary, one of the definitions of "prism" relates to "triangular, with refracting surfaces at acute angles with each other". The reason for this excursion into the realms of lexicography is a new mobile phone from...

Nokia 7500 Prism

The key aspect in the Prism's profile – the handset's casing is actually composed of tiny prisms that form its shape. On the face of it, the shell seems to be quite angular, and its sharp lines make it look somewhat awkward to use. But that's only what...

The Bluetooth implementation is, as always though, nothing to complain about, on top of that the Prism’s Bluetooth user interface is no different from the Nokia 6300. We encountered no issues with handling this type of connections. The stereo-headset...

nokia 7500 prism

The Nokia 7500 Prism has average features. The features are similar to other mid-range Nokia phones. The 7500 Prism is well-worth considering if you want a unique design. Something different.

Nokia 7500 Prism review: Daring difference

It's been a long time since we last held such an unusual phone in our hands. Nokia 7500 Prism is so much different from all other mobile devices in terms of design. With its dazzling geometric patterns and distinctive triangular keys, the Prism is one...

One of a kind design ; Typical s40 quick interface ; More than decent music performance with good equalizers ; Richer than usual preloaded content ; Keypad is comfortable, despite its unusual look ; Exchangeable accents to freshen up the phone's looks

Mediocre camera ; No hot-swap capability for the memory card ; The display lacks brightness ; Inadequate battery life ; Price tag too high for the offered functionality ; Joystick needs time getting used to ; Fingerprint magnet

Nokia 7500 has been in the limelight since the very day it appeared on the Chinese website of the Finnish company. With the angular design and a price tag befitting far greater functionality, there is no doubt that this is a love-it-or-hate-it phone. A...

Nokia Prism - 7500 (unlocked) review: Nokia Prism - 7500 (unlocked)

Nokia Prism - 7500 (unlocked)

The Nokia 7500 Prism has a gorgeous display and a broad range of features, including Bluetooth. The music player is quite nice, and music quality is respectable.

The Nokia 7500 Prism had clunky navigation controls and keypad buttons. Also, battery life was weak and call quality was uneven with low volume.

The Nokia Prism is an attention-getting phone with fine features, but its performance and usability were underwhelming.

Nokia 7500 Prism Review

A long time has passed since Nokia dared to introduce such an innovative design that users can admire when looking at the 7500 and 7900 Prism handsets. At a first glance, you might have the impression that there something wrong with the keypad, but the...

I won't say anything about its design as people might not consider it good looking at all�on the contrary. What I have noticed using this phone is its high functionality and easy to use interface, things that are characteristic to the Nokia brand....

The only thing that really bothers me is the low battery life which will seriously limit this phone's functionality and will utterly force you to buy a supplemental battery. Furthermore, the microSD slot card has been placed right under the battery,...
