Nokia 6760 Slide – Feel the Surge

No Comments 13 October 2009

Frankly speaking, Nokia 6760 slide is not the kind of phone that people will be craving for; I’m not saying that it is bad, I’m just saying that it has nothing that special about it. However, there’s just a certain aspect of this phone that attracts certain target market for sure. Also known as the Nokia Surge, 6760 slide can surely make a great daily companion; it can push you further and make you feel the surge.

The thing is, 6760 slide is created to be a ‘neutral’ phone not attached to any of the Nokia series. It has the QWERTY feature of the E-series, the multimedia feature of N-series, and the design does reminds us a lot to XpressMusic phones also produced by Nokia. The bottom line is, this phone is wicked in its own sense.

Nokia chose Symbian 9.3, S60 FP2, as a platform for this phone. It would be great to see the Symbian OS 9.4 with 5th edition user interface on this phone, but I guess the guys at Nokia thought otherwise. It has built-in accelerometer, UI auto-rotate, and of course turn-to-mute feature to allow you to silence incoming calls and notifications just by turning the phone.

6760 slide also has several social networking and internet messaging features built-in. With the slide-out QWERTY keypad, writing messages or browsing the internet through 3G network can be very easy. The user interface is very responsive and swift, making this phone even more adorable. It may not look like a special phone at first, but you will notice its top-notch features as soon as you get your hands on it.

If Palm Pre is too powerful for you, then this is the product you should be looking into. Palm has again done a great job and released their latest Palm Pixi model designed for a wider target market. The infamous WebOS interface will make you enjoy everything you do on this phone for sure, but that is not the only thing to expect from Pixi.

The overall design of Palm Pixi is great. It has a solid and firm look to it; with black finish and QWERTY keypad, this phone looks even more appealing. It looks more ‘cute’ than ‘macho’, so it would be safe to say that women will love the design for sure. The 2.63-inch capacitive touch screen, slightly smaller than Palm Pre’s, with a 320×400 resolution is very responsive and comfortable to use. It has multitouch capabilities; yes, you can pinch to zoom in or out, and it works on both the media player and the web browser. With the multitouch support and QWERTY keypad, browsing is a lot easier to do. The screen is big enough to view sites comfortably, and the pinch motion will allow you to zoom on certain parts quickly. The newly improved WebOS also has enhanced messaging features including threaded messages — an old-school Palm signature — and Yahoo integration.

With 3G support, you won’t have to worry about data transmission speed at all. The Palm Pixi also has built-in GPS and Bluetooth as a standard feature. It is less powerful than the Palm Pre, but it is more than enough to get the job done.
