Nokia N72 on Meteor

connundrum

Hey, after asking here a couple of weeks ago about new phones that Meteor might be getting, they have released the Nokia N72.

Just wondering if anyone has thoughts on it? I gather the keypad is quite on the small/annoying side?

No mention of this phone on meteor site? Where is it available?

Cheers

Its on the Billpay phones - here.

Apparently there are a few more new one to be released before Christmass

No sign of that there.

I've heard decent things about the phone. Keypad is similar to the N70 one. A bit small but not unusably so.

i can see it alright, not impressed, if 3 are launching the n73 this isn't too hot. i'm eligible for an upgrade but meteor have nothing that i'd prefer over the k750i I have. they have no info about what may or may not be coming no matter who you talk to or email. useless feckers!

seriously thinking of moving to 02 or 3 just to get a decent handset...

First review I found of it here.

Was looking to upgrade from SE K750i and was thinking of getting the Samsung D900 but then came across this.

Looks interesting

Yeah, saw that review today too. Seems the problems are too small keypad and the slidey thing on the back may cause hassle. Think I might get it at the weekend.

Was going to move to o2 for the Blackberry, but I really can't justify giving away the free meteor to meteor calls and texts (the missus is 085 too like).

As for 3.. I've just heard too many horror stories about them - crap customer service, launching phones with little testing (leading to a huge amount of returns) etc.

I really wanted to stick with Nokia, so this may be the best option so far.. disagree with me?

what do you feel you are gaining over the k750i? i'm holding out for the k800i or the n73, but if meteor are going to wait for non 3G versions of them it could be a long wait...

I've had the SE K750i for over a year now and was just thinking of changing it.

The D900 looks nice but doesnt get great reviews.

The N72 looks nice but again doesnt get great reviews.

Was also looking at the Nokia 6233 as well

i guess am in the same boat then, nothing wrong with the k750i just fancy a change..

Meteor have had 3G phones in their stock. They had the N91 so they might get other 3G phones. N72 is 3G too, if I recall correctly.
