Hands-on with Nokia 6700
Mobile-review have posted a hands on with the Nokia 6700. Here is the their final impression.
One of the technologies we overlooked in this review is UNC - Uplink Noise Cancellation. Up until this moment Nokia have been using Voice Clarity feat that improved your voice quality, but it's more of an equalizer than anything else. The idea behind UNC stems from mobile accessories and Bluetooth headsets in particular - the 6700's casing houses two microphones, and each one analyzes your current environment, trying to separate your voice from background noises. So, in theory it should provide superior call quality, compared to phones armed with only one microphone. And it does, although not always. By the way, the Nokia 6700 is not the first phone to employ this feat - the Nokia 3600 Slide and 7510 Supernova had it as well, nevertheless Nokia never touted it in thouse phones.
The 6700's bundled motion sensor allows the user to mute an incoming call or bring up the clock on the standby screenby tapping on the casing - all in all, these are the features you'd expect to find in a top-range Nokia-branded phone.
We never encountered any problems with the 6700's reception quality either, plus its vibro alert was more than satisfactory.
The 6700 offers an uncompromised combination of functionality, imaging and music departments, as well as price and materials - it'll be very difficult to find a worthy rival for it as far as candbybar-shaped phones go. On balance, the Nokia 6700 is a well-rounded phone, and with its 235 Euro price tag (before taxes) that it'll put on some time in May, it's going to be one of the best ways to go out there.
