Comparisons Featuring Nokia E7
Short Review
- The Nokia E7 features a solid build with dimensions of 123.7 x 62.4 x 13.6 mm and a weight of 176g, making it relatively compact for a smartphone.
- Its 4.0-inch AMOLED display offers a resolution of 360 x 640 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 184 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks the sharpness of modern displays.
- Performance is driven by a 680 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 256MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking and demanding applications.
- The rear camera is 8 MP, capable of recording video at 720p, but lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The 1200 mAh battery provides limited longevity and does not support fast or wireless charging.
- Running on Symbian^3, the software can be upgraded to Nokia Belle OS, though it may feel outdated compared to current operating systems.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is available in several colors, including Dark Grey, Silver White, Green, Blue, and Orange.
- Notably, it includes a headphone jack, which is increasingly rare in modern devices.
- Overall, the Nokia E7 presents a basic smartphone experience with limited performance and features by today's standards.
