Menu

Menu's organization is traditional for Nokia phones, so you see icons in main menu, the submenus are organized as lists. The phone supports shortcut number navigation. The device supports English and many other Asian languages. Let's examine all the functions step by step.

Phonebook: The phonebook offers the similar possibilities as Nokia 6610, 6100 and others. You can add up to 3 numbers and 1 text field to each contact. The dynamical memory enables to save up to 5 phone numbers and 4 text fields for each block if you have less than 300 contacts. There are also caller groups here.

You can view the SIM card memory and the phone memory at the same time. You can copy your phone numbers from the SIM card to the phone and vice versa.

Messages: The phone supports concatenated messages (up to 459 characters) and Nokia Smart Messaging. There are 10 pre-default small graphic pictures to decorate a message and templates to speed up text input. You can also use a predictive text input while creating messages. A Chat feature is available.

Up to 150 short messages and 50 graphic messages can be stored in the phone memory. Remaining free space is used to keep MMS messages, Java programs, sounds, ringing tones and graphics

The device has built-in e-mail client (POP/SMTP), it's written on Java and it is similar to such one in Nokia 6800. This function has no problems

Call lists: Lists of received, dialed and missed calls with a possibility to view date and time. Each list contains up to last 20 phone numbers. There are also cost and duration counters here.

Profiles: Nothing extraordinary. Usual possibilities to personalize your phone. All the settings can be activated till the specific time

Settins: I can notify settings for wallpapers (one of the graphic files). Also a user can set a colour scheme of the menu (several schemes are available).Shortcut menu, which is appointed to the right soft-key, is also adjustable

For the first time, in phone from Nokia is available free memory viewer, memory's allocation is displayed for all functions, including phonebook, messages. Other models display percentage ratio of used memory, that's less convenient.

Alarm: The alarm can be found in the main menu. It has no extra settings, only single operation. This function is realized poorly.

Gallery: All graphic and sound files are kept in this menu. There are also settings for the access to download new files (wap). One can create own folders here.

Organizer: This feature is realized as in the other phone from Nokia, for example in the 6610. You can add from 100 up to 500 notes, it depends on their length. An automatic deletion of the old notes is available (on the basis of time). The calendar has a monthly view and you can quickly find a desired date.

Dictionary: The phone has built-in Chinese-English, English-Chinese dictionary. This function will be useful for those, who learn English or Chinese. The dictionary has word search.

Games: The device has several preset games, they could be: Sky Diver, Triple Pop, Bounce. All the games are known by other devices from Nokia.

Applications: This menu contains Java-applications. The standard kit includes Converter II, which allows converting different metric sizes. WorldClock II shows time in different time zones. The last program is a lunar calendar, it's typical for Asian phones.

Extra: Everything is standard: calculator, countdown timer and a stopwatch (split, lap time and a possibility to save results). The phone has electronic wallet, which allows storing data about credit cards and different codes locked by password.
