Nokia 2720 Fold: Form and Functionality in an Affordable Package

Saturday, July 18th, 2009
Nokia-2720-fold-black-openThe latest device from Nokia, the Nokia 2720 Fold is a good combination of form and functionality. It sports an attractive polished design that is further enhanced by the secondary screen on the front panel. This screen comes to life when the phone receives messages and calls. The glossy exterior of the phone is simple yet stylish and users can choose between black and red variants.
 
Apart from design, the features that Nokia incorporated into this phone are also noteworthy. Remember that this phone is supposedly a mass market device yet its features are quite solid for a mobile phone belonging to this price range. It is equipped with the much touted Ovi Mail and Nokia Life Tools – two applications designed to empower the user. Ovi Mail boasts of an uncomplicated set up process for e-mail as well as convenient send and receive functions as there is completely no need to use a PC.
 
The Nokia Life Tools provides essential information to farmers and students located in distant areas. For instance, a farmer can access information that can help him in his profession such as farming techniques, pricing and availability of agricultural products, weather forecasts and other similar data. Students on the other hand now have a venue in which to learn English by way of the English language courses available through the phone. General knowledge lessons are also offered.
 
Web browsing should be a satisfactory experience as the Nokia 2720 Fold is supported by HTML and WAP. The Opera Mini browser enhances viewing even further. This phone also has Java support which means games and applications are downloadable via this unit.
 

Other features include a 1.3MP camera, an integrated FM radio with RDS support, video recording and playback capacity, voice and audio recording functions. The 2720 was unveiled along with the Nokia 7020 and 2730 and will be sold in the second half of this year for 55 euros.

Nokia-2720-fold-red-closedThe primary target market of Nokia with this device are consumers belonging to communities in emerging markets, which is why the company incorporated another remarkable application, the Nokia Life Tools. Nokia Life Tools allows access to information such as farming guidelines, fertilizer prices and availability as well as English language courses. Something that will prove valuable to farmers and students living in rural areas. 
 
A key issue in connectivity for these communities is that they rarely have access to a computer. With the Nokia 2720, the Nokia Life Tools service is accessible directly through the phone. As an extra, the company also added entertainment applications that users can download such as ringtones and news.
 
The Nokia 2720 is equipped with a 1.3MP camera as well as a main camera for video recording. It has an FM radio with RDS support so you can listen to your favorite music. The device is also outfitted with information management tools that include a calendar to keep track of your schedules, an expense manager to help you with budgeting and a to-do list for important tasks.
 

Nokia launched the 2720 together with two other phone models being offered to emerging markets. These are the Nokia 2730 and Nokia 7020. The Nokia 2070 Fold is scheduled to be released in the third quarter of this year and it will sell for £48.

The Nokia 2720 Fold: An Entry-Level Clam Shell Device

Monday, June 15th, 2009
Nokia-2720-fold-BlackThe Nokia 2720 Fold is one amongst three entry-level mobile devices recently unveiled by Nokia. The 2720 is being marketed to emerging markets and whilst its pricing and positioning are categorised as entry-level, there are many features of this phone that make it highly functional.
 
The polished exterior of the 2720 features a hidden outer screen that lights up when you receive calls or messages. You can also activate the screen by pressing the phone’s volume key. This device is equipped with two laudable Nokia innovations, the Nokia Life Tools and Ovi Mail applications.
 
Nokia Life Tools, to my mind, is an empowering application. It brings productivity and progress into the hands of people who otherwise may have a difficult time accessing the information they need to improve their lives. With Nokia Life Tools, farmers and students in remote areas can take advantage of agricultural techniques, English learning courses and other similar information. They can explore all of these without using a computer.
 
Ovi Mail affords users trouble-free e-mailing with an easy three step set up process, once again, without the need for a PC. Connectivity is more than adequate on this phone so that you are able to send SMS and MMS without any problems. This phone also allows for instant messaging. You can even make and manage your own distribution lists. The Opera Mini browser coupled with HTML and WAP support allows for reliable browsing functions. This device also has the Java MIDP 2.0 application.
 
There are a lot of information management tools to help you put your life in order. There is a calendar, reminders list, notes, expense manager and an advanced calculator amongst others. You can also assign images to your contacts, if that is your preference. 
 

Nokia launched two other budget phones, the Nokia 2730 and Nokia 7020. The 2070 will be available for purchase in the second half of 2009 at an economical €55.
