Nokia 3250 Review
The model does not have any problems with network reception quality, the voice of interlocutor is clearly heard, as well as yours. The volume of 64-tone polyphonic ring tone is high in case you use mp3 files. In this case the quality of polyphonic ring tones is not so important. Vibrating alert's power is below average, it cannot be felt all the time. This model is interesting because it's a smartphone, you can add 3 rd party software if you like. Although at the moment Nokia 3250 will be released the software assortment will stay terribly poor. It will take around 6 months for situation to improve. Incompatibility with old software is a great disadvantage of device targeted for the youth. Young ones like playing games, discovering some interesting 3 rd party software. Worsening of the camera and the amount of settings is understood, one have to sell those more expensive devices with more features from the upper class. Unfortunately the music part of the phone was equaled with the camera's level. When you look at the announced codecs and features on paper – you become impressed, but in reality they are realized poorly, and those who will see that will not add Nokia 3250 to their wish lists. This is exceptionally cheap solution, and the company's aim is not to make it extremely popular. There's no difference in player's abilities comparing to other modern Nokia smartphones except for the remote control. It's interesting to find out that Nokia N91's sound quality is much better even if you use exterior headphones. What' s so interesting about it ? The phones are using the same platform. Nokia 3250 is targeted for the youth, who like to flash their phones, but they don't really care about the qualitative comparison of specifications between their phone and other products on the market. The main aim is to impress interlocutor with unimaginable amount of supported codecs, use trendy term "smartphone" and state that this product comes from the leader of the market.
