When the camera is working is it of great quality and the video editing feature is formidable.
It is generally glitchy and does not offer a user-friendly, fast experience.
Do not buy the Nokia N72.
I have had it for 6 months and it has been annoying me with lags and glitches for 5 of those months; in the last month I have simply accepted that it is rubbish.
---Issues with image and gallery:
-It can not handle a 2gb memory card; the phone can not estimate memory remaining for photo and video.
-When attempting to video, it freezes and does not unfreeze unless the battery is taken out and phone restarted.
-The sequence mode causes phone to freeze; again the battery needs to be removed.
-Any attempted editing to existent photos results in a discombobulated and distorted photo.
-When browsing though the gallery it often lags, freezes, and aborts back to the desktop of the phone.
---Issues with file manager:
-Many photos can not be moved around at once as the phone freezes and does not carry out the command.
---Issues with messaging and related memory:
-Over 1000 messages can not be deleted at once. During the process it freezes.
-When setting the messages to mmc card memory, the phone operates extremely slowly and often does not open messaging at all.
-'Phantom' messages that can not be controlled eventually build up that can only be removed through a master reset.
---Connection issues:
-The phone is often not recognized when connected via USB.
-The option to use a simple navigation (files etc) instead of the Nokia PC Suite was never given to me upon starting up the phone with the computer.
-There is no Linux support for this phone so you are screwed if you do not have a card reader and aren't willing to store everything on your card and possibly want to have control over your phone memory through your computer.
---General issues:
-Any general command has a great potential to freeze mid-action.
-The phone is slow in general and once you get comfortable with its navigation you will become too fast for it. It will get confused and give up.
Definitely not worth NZ$370
