The folks at Mobile-Review reviews the Nokia C7. Head over to this post to read the Nokia C7 review.

Describing my impressions from Nokia N8 I asked the readers to participate in the questionnaire on the prospects of Symbian^3 and answers were quite symptomatic. It is good for Nokia, but does not impress against the background of other solutions. This is the best description of this range and Nokia C7 is not an exception. People who are accustomed to Nokia phones will like the model, but this solution is hardly a market leader. Among flagship models on Symbian^3, you will not find a more balanced handset. Think yourself, the model successfully got rid of an unnecessary HDMI output and a 12 MP, but retained other features of Nokia N8. Nokia E7 will be more expensive. So, we have a winning solution for the next several months. The handset will appear in shops in mid October or November. The recommended price will be around €300-320 before taxes. In real life the price will be higher as we see in the case of Nokia N8 (announced price of €370 became €450-470 in shops). Depending upon the market this phone will cost around €360-390, but even such a price is quite attractive.
