Review

The Nokia 7250 is surely Nokia's worst camera phone. Whilst it is based on a successful design (the 7210) and incorporates a stereo FM radio, polyphonic ringtones and Java™ capability, it fails as a camera phone for the simple reason that it has a terrible colour display and an even worse camera. Add reliability problems to the mix and you get a phone that is best avoided. A better option is the newer Nokia 7250i, or one of Nokia's later generations of camera phone, such as the 6230.
