Nokia 500 review: In search of Anna
Nokia 500 left us with mixed feelings. The spotty web browser and the poor camera performance left a bitter taste and we found it hard to describe the UI as fluid or responsive. In fact, more often than not it was downright laggy.
Even the free lifetime turn-by-turn navigation and the brightly colored exchangeable rear covers didnt make up for the poor impression. read more →
- Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
- Penta-band 3G with 14.4 Mbps HSDPA and 5.76 Mbps HSUPA support
- 3.2" 16M-color TFT capacitive touchscreen of 640 x 360 pixel resolution
- 5 megapixel fixed-focus camera and VGA video recording @ 15fps; geotagging
- Symbian Anna OS
- Symbian Anna is still catching up with Android and iOS
- Fixed focus flashless camera, poor image quality
- Poor video recording quality
- Relatively limited 3rd party software availability
- Non-hot-swappable microSD card slot
Nokia 500 Review
Overall, the world’s largest phone maker by volume has trimmed specs from the right places to arrive to its new entry-level Symbian star, the Nokia 500. The lack of LED flash and the basic video capture capabilities of the 5MP camera module seem to be the main victims that fell in the quest for a low-end pricing. Others, like less RAM and smaller battery we can live with, as they don’t affect usability that much – besides, the update to Symbian Belle will speed the interface up significantly. read more →
- Cheap but capable handset with pleasant design
- Above average pixel density makes text crisp and easier to read
- Hardwired DivX/Xvid video playback
- Video capture with 15fps only
- No camera flash
- Symbian Anna is sluggish compared to Belle
Nokia 500
The Nokia 500 isn't the big daddy of Nokia's 2011 portfolio, but, if the price is right, the 500 could find its way into a number of pockets and purses.
