Review

The Art Deco inspired design of the Nokia 7260 comes with a coordinated carrying pouch and strap, revealing Nokia's intention to make this phone a fashion item. It is a beautiful phone to look at, with its curved edges, high gloss finish and contrasting silvery highlights, and practical too, although the keypad suffers a little in usability. The 65k colour display is bright and clear, although small, but good enough. The camera is VGA standard (640 x 480 pixels), and again is average. The integrated video recorder and FM radio are welcome additions, but all things considered there is nothing special in the functionality of this phone. It does enough, and looks stylish at the same time!
