First look at Nokia 6710 Navigator
Mobile-review have posted a preview of the Nokia 6710 Navigator. Here is their final impression.
Both the 6710 Navigator's call and reception quality were fine - we never experienced any issues with them during our quality time with the phone. The vibro alert proved to be strong enough as well.
Unfortunately, the 6710 Navigator is Nokia's third unsuccessful foray into this particular segment - it does seem to have a sound idea behind it, but it's hard to feel it under the phone's thick skin composed of standard features and same old drawbacks. What it could really use is a special touch or two, something that could give the phone a very unique face. The 6710 Navigator will definitely follow in the footsteps of its predecessors, in that it won't be a money-maker for Nokia in any way. I didn't really like the phone, and the fact that now its sales package includes a bunch of extras, such as a car kit and a lifetime subscription only shows that Nokia themselves see no potential in the 6710 Navigator without all these amenities. All in all, there are some more interesting offerings out there, even in Nokia's own portfolio.
