Nokia 3660 Phone Review

By Ian Bell Updated July 19, 2004

Quote from the review:

“The Nokia 3660 runs Symbian OS Series 60 with all the usual accoutrements. That includes a, XHTML capable browser and an e-mail client that speaks both POP3 and IMAP4, as well as assorted smaller programs and utilities. Multimedia viewing is provided by an included RealOne player.

The main draws for this phone in particular are mostly based off of the camera, which, despite its lack of a flash, offers very good picture quality as well as video recording capability. Images look washed out and grainy on the phone’s screen, but once transfered to a better display are surprisingly crisp.

As with many Series 60 phones, the 3660 includes an MMC slot to supplement the included 16 MB of RAM, tucked neatly away underneath the battery, thus requiring a power-down to exchange it. When used more as a hard disk than exchangeable storage it works well enough, but power users may be annoyed by it. Naturally the phone also includes Bluetooth support with a healthy set of profiles. Included softare includes the usual set of PIM apps. “

I used Motorola and Samsung folding phones. Only one gets this feature right

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Motorola Razr Plus folded in hand.

Software plays a crucial role in any device, but it becomes even more important when you have a limited amount of screen space to interact with the user interface. The Motorola Razr series has always been better than the Galaxy Z Flip lineup in terms of usability when folded. This year, Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 5 closes the gap between the two clamshell foldables by offering a big cover screen.

But sporting a big outer display doesn’t immediately make a flip phone foldable a whole lot more useful; case in point – the Oppo Find N2 Flip, where Oppo gave us six widgets (and added a couple more later) to play around with and called it a day. While Samsung brings 13 widgets to the table, the cover screen software is still not on par with the Motorola Razr Plus.

How one bad decision is ruining all of Samsung’s new phones

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 in cream, blue, and black.

This summer’s Galaxy Unpacked event was the usual great fun. We got a new Galaxy Z Fold 5 with an improved hinge and more powerful chip, plus the Galaxy Z Flip 5 with a cover screen that’s large enough to see what’s going on. These were joined by the return of a much-loved design in the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, with some refinements to make it even more classy, plus a standard Galaxy Watch 6 and a full new lineup of Samsung tablets.

However, Samsung’s latest product lineup also confirms the road I’ve feared the South Korean gadget maker has been on for at least a few months now. Samsung is getting more serious and less fun and whimsical in its product designs, especially when it comes to color choices.
