Don’t buy Nokia 7210 supernova

7210_supernovaNokia 7210 supernova is a rip-off!

Its been 2 months since I bought this “Nokia 7210 Supernova” mobile at Chennai, India. The main attraction was its slim/good looks and light weight plus ample features for a bargain price of Rs. 5500/-.And I now regret the decision.

The downs:

  1. The manual says 2 hours of talktime per battery charge. Phew. In reality it is hardly an hour.
  2. It heats up like an oven if you talk for 15 mins continuously. If you persist beyond that, it will burn your cheeks.
  3. The green bar depicting battery level is rank stupidity. It can only indicate two stages of charge level – full and half. After a few minutes, the mobile just switches itself off. It is so misleading that you find the bar showing full one moment, half the next and dead on the next! It just catches you unawares!
  4. Audio is so so.

So I am straddled with this substandard gadget, having spent money on it. But through sheer egotrip I am boasting to everyone in my circle that this wonderful piece of electronic marvel is God’s choicest boon to mankind, what with its rich features like Bluetooth, expandable memory, 2Mp camera, MMS, polyphonic.. and what not!

My advice is, do a research, read and listen to customer reviews, either by word of mouth or through web sites like MouthShut, TechTree etc., before plunging into a buy decision.

Cheers!
