Video Samples: Great During The Day; Bad At Night

Nokia Lumia 710: Day Video
In general, the Lumia 710's camera does a good job of recording video during the day and with adequate lighting, as seen in the video above.
Quality takes a turn for the worse at night, though. Notice the lack of focus and lens flare from the street lights. This seems to result from an inability to adjust quickly to different light conditions, and you can even see the issue surface during the first video as the camera pans around.

Not quite sure how many people even use the feature.
Out of everybody you see when you go out, count the amount of people video calling compared to making a regular call.

Not for the first Lumia line. They were on tight schedule. Other WP phones have it, check out HTC Titan and Radar.

MS hasn't had time to do much with skype yet, the sale hasn't been long approved despite being announced a long time ago).
The mid-year WP7 update, Tango, will reportedly add skype functionality.
As for actually using skype, I have had android phones and tablets with it but I have never bothered to use it. My HTC Titan has a nice front facing camera, but I'd have rather they took it out and cut the cost by $20 for all the use its going to get.
Editor please take note of Title Pg 8 :[Lumia 710: Nokie Is Back At It].
Instead of "Nokie" it should be "Nokia".

that was the problem ...
I was very impressed with the Lumia 800. Nice screeen, different from everythign else (Yes same as N9 but it was very nicely made and a phone you could get in cyan without looking like a complete tool) Only thing put me off it was lack of HDMI out, frontfacing camera and better apps selection on android. My last phone was a blackberry and it had 2 key things android doesn't
1. Universal mail box
2. Browser doesn't close if I switch apps
My question is simple, how well does the Lumia 710 handle switching between tasks? Does it manage it as well as blackberry and is the mail box universal?
Personally frontfacing cam, and HDMI out and that phones a winner for me. Add a keyboard and I'll worship it lol.
I have been using it for last 2 months and i am satisfied with the performance. This is the best wp7 (mango) bang for buck.

Depends on where you are at buddy boy. If you live in the USA, then you are probably right (although I have skyped to an Ipod in the US). But move yourself outside of the country, where 95 percent of the worlds population lives. Now you want to call someone from country to country... on a cell phone... its expensive. Or I can go to a free Wifi spot and use Skype absolutely free.
I know its cool to think that every product on earth will only be used in middle class America, but that may not be such a great view point if you are actually in business (even though it is the same viewpoint that caused the USA to fail).
Just nit-picking here, but the samsung focus has touchscreen keys for the back, home, and search. Just saying.

Actually there are a few worms for smartphone*
I think this is a more reasonable choice than the overpriced Lumia 800 to anyone who wants to give Nokia a second chance.

I'm currently trying out the Samsung Focus S, another WP7 unit, and it's pretty solid so far.
WP7 handles the Universal Mailbox by having you add all your email accounts which will present you with separate mailboxes for each. After that, you can then go into one of them, open the options area and select "Link Inboxes". Just select which mailboxes you want to link and away you go.
As to the switching between apps, just make sure to use the Windows button and not the back button. If the app supports Fast Switching, it will remain open and in the spot you left it. Just hold down the Back button to have it pull up all the apps that are open.
Hope that helps!

The Lumina 710... looks generic, like a $1 phone. While it is cheaper to make than the 800 series, they could have done something more with it.
The 800 is soooo much nicer.

... ok... i do videocalls from my iPhone 4s to my brothers Samsung Galaxy S II ans sisters HTC...
My HTC HD7 cost me $0 due to the Valentine's Day Sale.

A lot! thanks!
so does this bring Nokia back to the table?!
Why don't they make a teflon iodine battery pack, a postive processor, and an overunity regenerator so the specs don't kill? Obviously he should run away, or she, J spec as well damn graphine homo's.
