Nokia 7280 Review
Phone rating: 
Review: May 2005. Updated June 2006.
The Nokia 7280 is the third and most extreme of Nokia's trio of "fashion
phones" - the other two being the Nokia 7260
and Nokia 7270.
The 7280 has a unique design. In fact, it's a phone that defines the word "unique".
There is no keypad, only select, send, end, and 2 soft keys. Instead, the phone
is operated using a voice-activated user interface. The phone has an active
slide that opens to reveal the camera. You can also answer and end calls by
opening and closing the slide.
Now, you're probably wondering "how does it work?" or maybe just
"does it work?"
The phone is intended to be operated mainly through a voice-activated interface,
and voice-dialling and simple voice commands seem to work well. However, relying
on voice commands is quite risky, as they can easily go wrong especially in
noisy environments (parties, clubs, etc.) Also voice dialling will only work
for pre-configured numbers. If you want to dial a different number, or if voice
dialling just isn't working for you, then you need to start using the keys.
As we mentioned, there's no numeric keypad, but there is a select key, 4 soft
keys and a rotating pad - a little like the controls on an iPod. The rotating
pad is used to navigate through the on-screen menu. This makes for a clumsy
user-interface that is only really suitable for occasional use. Whilst scrolling
through a list of names in order to make a call may be a pain, texting is very
difficult indeed. You need to scroll through a list of characters using the
select button to select each one. Even with predictive text, sending messages
this way is going to make you wish you'd got a normal keypad.
Visually the 7280 is stunning, finished in black lacquer, red and chrome, with
a mirror-like display that can actually be used as a mirror. A small Nokia fabric
label sticks out from one end, and the top of the phone flashes red when in
use. The screen lights up when you slide the phone open. The handset is slim
and lightweight and fits easily into a pocket or handbag. It has been compared
with Art Deco lipstick, and that pretty well describes how it looks.
Let's take a look at the features that you get. The display is a small 65k
colour screen featuring a subtle red glow that "exudes mystery and excitement"
according to the Nokia blurb. The camera is VGA resolution and there's no video
recorder, just a video playback facility. There's no camera flash, so taking
pictures at night is going to produce disappointing results (despite the 7280
being marketed primarily as a phone for night-time use!) The phone includes
an FM radio but no MP3 player. In other words, if you strip away the styling,
this is a very ordinary phone with limited features that would probably retail
for not much more than £100. But that misses the point of the 7280.
Reading the Nokia marketing material, it's clear that Nokia don't intend the
7280 to be used for regular business or daytime use. Instead it's designed as
a second phone, or a "night phone". Viewed in this way, it seems to
be a much more realistic option - at the end of the working day, you leave your
normal phone behind and step out into the night with the 7280 in your pocket,
to be used for calling, taking fun pics, occasional texts and general posing.
In conclusion, don't buy it for its features, definitely don't buy it for value-for-money,
be aware of its limitations and preferably use it as a second phone. But if
you want to create a big impression and have people drooling with curiosity
to see your phone, then this is the one! The Nokia
7380 updates the look and features of the 7280.
Features of the Nokia 7280 include:
- Voice-activated user interface with internal handsfree speaker

are now selling for up to £160 on ebay but I wouldn't part with this

OK. first of all, let me say that i STRONGLY advise you not to listen
to these other people who, well frankly, are illiterate morons. I mean,
they rate this phone with one star, and complain that it has no JAVA
or keypad. seriously?!? DID YOU EVEN LOOK AT THE PHONE YOU WERE BUYING?!?
if you wanted a phone with JAVA then BUY ONE!.. But don't sit there
and bitch because YOU didn't do your research. Anyway, this phone does
EXACTLY what it says it does, it looks great, calls are great, it defiantly
turns heads, its extremely unique, and is all around a fun phone to
have. The camera is not too bad, no worse than my last phone. If you
want great pictures, um, buy a camera. I don't text so that really was
not an issue when i was deciding on this phone. If you are one of these
speed-texting freaks who NEED the unlimited text plan, then no, this
probably isn't the right phone for you. I don't see how this phone could
be "only for girls." Obviously right? haha, its a great looking phone
for ANYONE. So if you are similar to me, and just want a functioning,
unique, stylish, different, reliable phone; yes i recommend the Nokia
7280... BUT PLEASE..before you buy any phone, the BEST thing you can
do is make sure you do your RESEARCH FIRST!

I have had this phone for more than two years and I can say it is pretty
good.It has good features- VGA camera(does not record video) Bluetooth,
Infrared, MP3, FM radio(I've used this feature quite a lot) great interface
as well as design.However I found many problems though.For example,
every time you want to get peep of the clock I had to open the fone-
it can not show the clock as a screensaver- it always had to be the
looking- glass- no bad- it was useful, but it can not be turn off- as
a rule after few seconds the morror appeared on the display. Well, there
is a light indicator, wich illuminate red light smoothly, when the phone
is at stand-by and vigoriusly, when I've missed a call, or have an SMS.The
ringtones are fantastic, they are so unique, as the phone itself is!
The waltpapers are great as well- they so represent beatiful and stylish
pictures and animations!Another problem was the batery- now, when the
phone is used almost 2 years- it is very weak- stand-by around 2- 2,5
days.:-(- the battery can't change one big MINUS!Shall I mention the
design- only a few words- the upper part slides- great effect- it slides
so smoothly- there is a assistant mechanism- works great I wonder- how
many times I have opened the phone- well the right number is either
1470, either - 730 don't know- I made a simple equation- once upon a
day -730 and twice- 1470 for 2 years. So conclusion- if you want a stylish
phone, with reasonable features and unreasonable high price about 400
dollars, and you do not care about SMS or megapixel camera, but still
want bluetooth and unique stylish design- buy it- it will be your stylish
accessory- secret mobile- it is great choice for girls, do not laugh,
i know I'm not a girl, but I'm a gay, so there was not much difference,
in spite of the fact that other pupils at collage laughted at me at
the baggining, calling me "Gay" , but after that I kissed a boy in front
of my whole class, they understand, and stopped- ao boys the phone is
for girls and gay- boys only, sorry!

The phone is excellent. It is a fashion phone. Comments about practical
aspects do not play here! This phone is the art and should be treated
that way. If somebody wants all-functional-smart-ScFi telephone then
s/he can buy one - there are dozens of models, with all the latest Windows
and Symbians. I would also add that I don't think this is a girls phone
only! The comparisons with lipstick and similar are not objective. I
have never seen a lipstick of this shape and this size im my life!!!
Lipsticks are much smaller, more curved, do not have buttons, etc. This
phone looks much more like an MP3 player or hi-tech digital camera.
If this phone is a girls phone because of its shape, then all MP3 players
and nice cameras are designed for girls only too! The whole serie 7
is about style and fashion, regardless of your gender! I like all those
phones.

It's difficult to take most of these reviews seriously. Why? Because
most of these morons can't even spell! If you can't even spell you probably
can't read very well either. My guess is that you are a dimwit when
it comes to technology and there's still a flashing 12:00 on your VCR
somewhere. Please, if you are technically challenged, stay away from
reviewing what you do not understand. Sheesh! This is just a plain old
phone with lot's of style and a new user interface. No java, no great
internet access, not a great camera and you can't play Quake on it.
The user interface does exactly what it was designed to do and it's
styled to impress. The phone works just fine. Period. You want to take
great pics, get a camera.

This phone was purchased in February 2005 - and is currently in for
repair for the second time. Maximum talk time is 18 minutes before battery
runs flat. Standby time is unpredictable. The phone completely locks
up for no reason - and the only solution is taking it to the dealers
for servicing. Don't waste your time or money on this phone. Get something
more relaible and predictable.

I had many problems and bugs with this phone when I just bought it.
The screen was turning off suddenly when playing ring tones, or when
I got called. sometimes, accepting calls did reject the call. And sometimes
the phone hang for a few seconds etc. Also the ringing tone was ascending
when you put it on ringinn (and not on ascending). Finally, i found
out that I had an old firmware version 3.24 on it. Press *#0000# and
it should tell you which version you have. So, I went to a nokia service
centre and they upgraded to the last version and now all the above problems
are solved. It is amazing, now I can really enjoy it. BTW, the Ipod
wheel, you get used to it. The predicitve spelling has really improved,
and the wheel makes little clicks. You have to use the voice commands
as much as possible and put the most used numbers with voice tags as
well. You press 'names' or the button on your bluetooth for 3 seconds
and then voice activation starts.

The prettiest phone I've ever had.. Also the fewest gadgets. Wish it
had email and I could think of a few ways to make the predictive text
work better. Love the camera, and colour resolution and internet.. and
the light effects and sound quality. Get it for looking lovely, dont
get it if you can't live without texting, as it takes for e v a h...

now this is something you have never seen before.this phone is tricky
wiht similarities to the ipod.if you are looking for functions ths is
not the mob for you.however,if style is what your looking for, you've
found it.lets face it this beauty was made for making a huge first impression
like the 8910i.it is tricky and hell in emergencies, and the screen
is just too small,but if its your image all that matters,just get it.

This is the best mobile I have seen in while. The mob looks smart and
compact and an overall rating of 5 stars. BUY IT NOW!!!

This is nokia jumping on the iPod bandwagon, visually similarly to the
iPod shuffle but unfortunatly that does not make for a good phone. Very
small screen+of poor quality and very difficult to use when drunk and
trying to get numbers off girls you meet when you are both drunk...
cool and a novelty until everyone gets one

This phone will definitely make heads turn. The first day I brought
it into the office, ALL my colleagues asked "Is that really a phone?
How do you open it? Where's the keypad?" and I had to tutor every one
of them, many times. Personally, I bought this phone because of the
looks. I am fully aware that text messaging would need a little more
effort on this phone and the somewhat limited VGA camera, even before
buying it. My advise is if you're going for looks more than feature
(I tell you, girls drool over this phone), pick this one. If you're
going for feature more than look, than there are other Nokia phones
that excel better. Secondly, my advise is - use this phone as a secondary
phone, probably for casual/party use, never for an office use. Typing
messages can be a hassle. But honestly, you have to admit, it's quite
a gorgeous design, right ?!

How do you use this thing. I bought one about a week ago and after having
immense trouble with it eventually took it back to the store. Its very
fiddly and just does not work like a proper phone. Do not get one unless
you have very small fingers!

I wasnt sure when i first started hearing all the hype, but i really
think this phone is fantastic. I find mine so easy to use, even without
the traditional keypad, and even answering a call makes me feel like
a 5 year old seeing Star Wars for the first time. This is an exciting
phone that will have you exploring its features for hours. Personally,
i hope this phone encourages more phone designers to push the boundries
out. Nice one Nokia, and thanks for the pretty lights too.

the sleek design has many people bursting to see it. their curiosity
is almost pushed to the max, wanting to know how each feature manages
to operate. the controls itself are quite unexpectantly easy to use
and with minimal buttons it allows you to control and use it much more
effectively. the camera is not as clear as some of the recent models
but i feel that this phone is out on its own and for anyone who wants
style and sophistication this phone is definately a must.
