I own a Cingular Wireless store so I was one of the first people to get to play around with this phone. The Nokia N75 is a very good phone in my opinion. Most of my customers who have purcahsed this phone are very happy with it. The Nokia N75 is a feature-packed flip phone that meets todays high standards in wireless devices. The Camera on this phone is amazing. It takes very high quality pictures for printing or just for viewing. Viewing pictures or anything else on the large N75 display is an experience in itself. The Display on this phone supports 16.7 Million colors which is better than 90% of phones. The music player is great and has external keys to make it easier for you.
The web browser was one of my favorite features of this phone. It has a full HTML browser which means you are not limited to only WAP websites. You can go to any website you desire.
The S60 smartphone Operating system might need a little time to get used to but you'll get the hang of it.
One thing that I kind of wish Nokia would make better is the hinge of the phone. It feels kind of weak at times, but I havn't had anyone come back with a broken hinge.
Reception on this phone is excellent. It is probably one of the best reception phones for Cingular.
It is a excellent phone overall!!!

It is a start of the art phone and has far more features than I could possible use. It has better reception, better camera. I don't like that it is not user friendly, can't accesss your messages and misssed calls easily and the print is far to small and not lite up as well as the Motorola.

  Elegence Comes To Town Riding on S60 Wheels!
Review created: 09/14/08(updated 09/14/08)

The Nokia N75 is an understated bit of high technology. It looks like a somewhat overgrown 6131 with buttons. But it is so much more inside and outside.

What it shares with the 6131 et. al. is a charging port and Pop-port so your headphones, USB cable and charger will carry over if you are upgrading. Everything else is oh so new, and oh so much better than you'll believe!

Screens - Huge inner (2.4 in.) LCD is the same resolution as the 6131 at 240 x 320 but it is gigantic by mobile phone standards and bright. Images seem to leap off the screen. I was amazed by what I saw. The outer LCD is also bright, not terribly larger than the 6131 but vibrant.

Keypad - Large dimpled numeric easy to use keys for dialing and texting set the stage. At the top are some new keys such as a dedicated back space key and a menu key. A music key is up there as well as the traditional five way navigation key. All are tastily backlit in a rich blue. The upper end takes some getting used to. You'll find yourself in the music applications unexpectedly until you learn to get around properly up at that end.

Outer Keys - Where to start? Dedicated camera key, volume keys, Music player keys? All are back lit and some are on the front of the flip, like the music player keys, some are on the sides. All function like you'd expect with good feedback and no surprises. You can about run the phone with the flip closed. But then you'd lose out on the huge inner display.

Operating system - Nokia S60 3rd Edition User Interface, Symbian 9.1 allows you to multi-task on the phone. QuickOffice, Games, Internet and Music can all run at once. You will take a hit in menu speed if you flog it this way but if you like to multi-task this is your device. It is easy to switch between functions: hold down the menu key until the list of open apps appears and then scroll. To close an open app scroll to it and push the back key.

Memory - The real memory on the phone, about 60 megabytes, of which you can get to about 35 - 40 megabytes after everything is loaded up is huge. The 6131, for example has 11 megabytes total memory. You'll have to work at it to get the "out of memory" message. You will get it after a while but it takes a while, usually while browsing.

Camera - The sensor is a CMOS 2 Megapixel (1600x1200) fixed focus with LED Flash for still images. The digital zoom prior to exposure is nice. Lots of adjustments available. Videography has QCIF and CIF resolutions at 15 frames per second. The images are okay. It won't replace dedicated imaging equipment. It will allow you to take okay images on the fly when you weren't expecting to need your imaging equipment or didn't want to lug it along.

What's Not to Like?

The SIM slot is gimmicky. Nokia usually has a straight-forward SIM slot. This one is springloaded and will, from time to time spit out your SIM when you don't want it to. Take off the back, remove the battery, re-insert SIM, replace the battery, re-boot. I hope this does not show up in any more Nokia devices.

AT&T only. What about the rest of us in North America? We could use a cool S60 phone too!

No lens cap. Even the venerable Sony-Ericsson S710a had an integral lens cap. This phone should have had one as well. My finger rests on the lens when I am using the phone.

If not for the SIM issue this phone would get a 5/5. Having to restart your phone over a design flaw is dumb. In many other respects the N75 is superior to anything else out there.

  Unlocked Nokia N75 has nice feel to it
Review created: 06/13/08
by:

This phone has that Cadillac feeling when you open it up and start punching on it. The numbers are big and easy. The smart-phone capabilities work for me as a good second after my Palm Treo. Received this phone truly unlocked, as advertised, for a good price, and was a breeze to get going with it. The size is perfect - not too big, not too small. It's just a classy phone. The music capabilities stands by itself- and all the other features will take some time to get used to.

  n75 a nice music camera phone
Review created: 04/18/08

First the cons, battery life isn't great, a long phone call might kill it in one use. Second the external buttons can be activated(I cant find a way to lock them), so your music might start blasting at any time if you carry it in a pocket.
Okay now the pros, nice phone, great stereo speakers(considering the size), decent camera and video, good call quality, expandable by 2gig with micro sd, video player.
I can not think of a better phone for the price( and I have had many types), unless you need a pda phone, this is very good.

  Very good cellphone
Review created: 04/10/08

Very slick phone. the operating menu is to comprehend, especially the media player. Long battery life, last 3 - 4 days. the volume of the media player could be louder and the video mode cannot function with the flip closed. Overall, a very good phone with hi-tech features for an individual who is on the move.

  N75 Is Where It's At!!
Review created: 04/02/08
by:

My Phone arrived today. To my surprise it was gorgeous... looking @ the reviews on youtube didnt do it justice. It was bigger than the average Razr, but BIGGER is BETTER in my opinion... I like a phone I can feel in my hands and it felt so good. The outside had the connections for USB, Charger, Memory Card Slot, Camera button, a customizeable button, and a little keychain part. There were 3 external MP3 music controls and a pretty clear outside screen. When I turned the phone on it was switched to offline mode which was good.

I opened the flip and the screen was HUGE!! It was so clear and bright and I really appreciated how the fonts were refined and classy and not gaudy and big. The first thing you noticed when you turned it on was the Nokia emblem followed by this very entertaining AT&T flash show (about 3.5 seconds).

The main screen came up and it was a pretty purple brushed color. The keypad buttons were big and had a good feel. The chrome embellished the phone even more and it gave it a very sophisticated appearance. The UI was very simple and fast... it was responsive to everything. The camera was awesome... the 2MP looked like N95's 3.5 MP. It was sick and the camcorder was clear and vibrant and it played in full screen!

The music player was simple but nice and the dual speaker surround system with bass was amazing!! It was so loud.. voulume goes up to 10 and had to keep it on 6. You can bluetooth ringtones and images and even add a microSD card (up to 4GB supported) The phone also has an Infrared port.

I particularly love the text message interface, its very easy and the text is small enough to compose over 300 characters... you can add advanced SMS such as little animations and pictures to text and not get charged for an MMS message.

The new Symbian OS for N-series phones is very fast and responsive. In my honest opinion I would recommend this phone for a person looking for a gorgeous elegant phone with packed features. If you are worried about a bulky phone then this phone is not for you... but it's your loss because this phone works too well to miss out.

Bottom Line; N75 is where it's at.

I bought this phone because it has a very loud ringer and an awesome camera for a cell phone. Menus are too hard to navigate, jack for data cable and headphones too hard to connect. I paid $250 for this phone but probably wouldn't do it again.

  Nokia N75 Reviews
Review created: 01/09/08

I've had my eye on the nokia N75 for a couple of months after using a friend's. Nokia has always released great products and the N75 stood up to the challenge. The most important factors to me are reception, call quality and comfortable use which the N75 had all three. Large buttons provided easy dialing, gorgeous screen was excellent on the eyes and the call quality stood out the most. Many people couldnt tell that I was on a cell phone. The only downside is that its a flip phone. I have generally like candy bar phones all my life and this was a rare exception for me. The camera was slighty slower than what I was use to but the picture quality mase up for that. Overall the N75 is a great phone and I give it an 8.7 on a scale to 10. The flip design and slow camera mode were the only detractors I could find.

  Overlooked UberPhone
Review created: 01/03/08

The Nokia N75 is one of the few (perhaps only) series 60 revision 3 phones to be carried by a phone carrier in the US. This is a shame, for the series 60 phones have a very rich development community. Unlike many carrier's phones, it is quite easy to install 3rd party software on the phone, significantly enhancing it's functionality. Nokia has developed interesting software for the phone, such as integrated blogging. They have desktop management software for Windows that allows you to sync your contacts and date book, as well as do other housekeeping. The phone works with iSync on the Mac as well (http://europe.nokia.com/mac), plus there is a media manager application for the Mac that works with iPhoto.

The phone is oriented as a media/web device, with dedicated controls on the outside of the phone for controlling the really nice music player. The phone supports miniSD cards so you can have a couple of gigabytes for music, images and video. Video playback works quite well. Finally, it has a built in FM radio, which will play through the built in stereo speakers, or headphones. It can capture video and still images.

Many of nokia's phones have quite good cameras, but this is a notch below; certainly good enough for outdoor shots, but too noisy for decent indoor shots -- roughly equivalent to the so-so phone built into the iPhone. However, the screen is the best I have ever seen on a cell phone -- clear, bright and sharp -- even in daylight.

The included browser is based on the same core code as Safari and iPhone's web browser, which means many iPhone optimized pages work great on the phone. It is indeed a nice browser, doing a good job of rendering pages on it's small screen.

The biggest glaring error with this phone is that it does not have a built in 3.5 mm jack for a pair of standard headphones. Users have to buy either a dedicated handsfree kit, or a adapter to be able to use their headphones. They should have at least included the adapter with the phone.

If you have a Cingular branded phone, try to get it unlocked (Cingular will do this if you have been a customer for a while -- think it is 6 months). You will want to ask for a "subsidy unlock code". This will not only let you use the phone with any GSM carrier, but will also allow you to install newer Nokia supplied firmware on the phone. The Nokia supplied user interface is much cleaner and more powerful. It does not have the junkware that the Cingular phone has, and functions are a little bit simpler. Understand, though, you will want to spend some time with the manual to uncover all the things this phone can do.

Oh, and by the way -- this phone is a world phone -- capable of working anywhere in the world that has GSM coverage, which means most of europe, and a big chunk of Asia -- plus of course, the USA, central and south america.

It is not a giant PDA phone that screams that you are a Geek. It is not a blackberry or iPhone. It is larger than a Razor, but packs in much more functionality and flexibility. If you consider yourself an advanced user, but wants something that looks slick and will fit in a shirt or pants pocket, here you go.

Review created: 12/01/07

Saving substantial green is a given with all the deals to be had on e-bay. But when that purchase gets up into the 150-250 dollar range the last thing you want is a dud not a deal. I recently purchased a Nokia phone for my 15 year old son using money he had earned this summer working jobs. He had worked hard and I recommended saving some dough using e-bay which offered new unlocked phones at substantial price reductions. He had the phone picked out from an ATT showroom but did not have enough cash and that purchase required a term commitment. There were several sellers of the type phone listed. I explained when I purchase I always read the description carefully, check the seller score, it should be in the high 90's. I then read feedback comments. This is the final data I need to place a bid. Feedback should be strong and consistent. We got a great phone at a great price.

Pros:
1. Start up is much faster! Also no more Cingular or AT&T start up. Just the good old fashioned Nokia hands touching.
2. When I close the fold, any application I was currently using does not end. Yeah!
3. The music key when pressed can be customized and used for anything which is great and useful.
4. The gallery application is much quicker and not a memory hog.
5. The fact you have an abundance of 3rd party application is incredible. Handy Taskman, Handy Clock, DiVX Player, Google Maps, Gmail, Yahoo to Go, Sailing Clicker
6. I can use isync with my apple laptop
7. I can use all types of music
8. The camera is ok but video is excellent.
9. I can upload to VOX or Flickr in no time
10. Nokia Beta labs
11. Conversation is a great application, which can be used for threaded sms messages.
12. Nokia Web Browser is great! Plus the mini map is great.
13. Nokia Search
14. Also the download application for the unlocked phone is great! I can download current Nokia apps for free.
15. You must go to Mosh! Just google Mosh nokia and you will see what I mean.
16. On the outside of my now unlocked phone the radio is the forward button option.
17. Very Customizable!
18. Voice recorder!
19. Loud stereo speakers! Very loud!
20. 1-touch dialing
21. Independent Voice commands
22. Message Reader for text messages!
23. And I almost forgot that I have great reception and voice quality.
24. I use the phone as my MP3 in the car.
25. The screen is amazing!
Cons
1. Battery life could be better!
2. Not enough RAM!
This phone is excellent for the price. Plus it is covered by insurance. Great device for cell phone enthusiast!

THIS IS MY 3RD NOKIA PHONE. I LOVE THE LOOK AND FEEL OF THIS PHONE. GREAT PICTURES AND SOUND. COMPLIMENTS ALL THE TIME. EVERYBODY WANTS TO HOLD IT. I SUGGEST HAVING IT COVERED WITH "INVISIBLE SHIELD" BY ZAGG.COM. THE PHONE LOOKS GREAT WITH IT AND DESERVES THE EXTRA PROTECTION.

I bought the N75 about 2 weeks ago and have had problems with it and had to take it back. The first one I got, the internet didn't work, so they replaced it with another. This one the microphone stopped working randomly and I had to turn the phone off and then back on in order for the mic to start working again. The batter life - horrible! My old Motorola still had about full battery the next even after talking 2 hrs on the phone. This one I charged the night before and didn't use the internet or any other features and change the setting of data to as needed and it was dead after an hour of talking. The battery also got really hot along with the keypad while charging and talking on it for about 20 minutes. The hinge seemed kinda flimsy, and the display was slightly hard to clean (cleaning the edges) and the keypad always got dirty (minor stuff). The camera and the features that it had were awesome. I traded it for a Samsung Sync instead.

  "N75 Unfulfilled Promise"
Review created: 09/23/07
by:
6 of 9 people found this review helpful.

I really had high hopes for this phone, but was ultimately disappointed. I have been a loyal Nokia guy for years and looked forward to my first smartphone. More than that I wanted a combo phone/music player and the N75 seemed to fit the bill. I was skeptical about going from candy bar to flip phone, but I figured so long as I could voice dial (you can) and answer (you can’t) without opening the phone, that would be fine.

But, in the end, this phone failed because of shortcomings of the music player implementation and poor battery life. Sadly, I will be looking at A Samsung.

BATTERY LIFE: (more deal breakers)
Very poor – eats batteries like a Hummer towing a tank eats gas. Combo of small battery and hungry O/S and displays kills batteries fast. I really couldn’t get more than 1 ½ hrs of talk time a day out of this, and that’s without a bluetooth headset. Yes, I followed all the web advice about setting data to “as needed” setting. If you really want to use this as a smart phone: email, web, PIM and phone, then you better carry spare batteries.
