Nokia 7360 (Unlocked)

The first in Nokia's L'Amour Collection to be released, the Nokia 7360 is a beautifully crafted device, made from a combination of leather-inspired materials, etched metal, and transparent surfaces. It's not about what it does, it's how it looks and feels that matters here.

Apart from the look, there's nothing special here. The 7360 does enough to be acceptable for the money that you pay, but nothing more. It has an ordinary VGA resolution camera (0.3 mega pixels) with a rather poor video camera. The display is below average for this type of phone. Ringtones are of average quality, although the phone does support MP3 ringtones. There's a stereo FM radio, which is definitely a plus, and an integrated handsfree speaker.

The small memory of the 7360 is one of the biggest disappointments. At just 4 Mbytes, there really isn't enough to hold more than a couple of short video clips or a few dozen photos. A single MP3 ringtone will probably fill all the available memory. This tends to make the phone's functions more of a gimmick than anything else.

Still, as we already mentioned, buyers of the L'Amour Collection are probably not motivated primarily by tech specs, and the 7360 is a good-enough mid-priced phone with a very special design, and if the looks appeal, then it's probably worth buying.
