Nathan, 20 Feb 2010I've got this phone for two days now, and I've pushed it ha... moreI have that same experience with my 6710 Navigator. It's done nothing but wonders to me. I even reckon that it's better than the e71. I could never ask for a more perfect phone to carry with me.
I even have the same thoughts as you thinking that it has no accelerometer--well we're wrong. On my third day of testing and just checking out the phone I saw the setting that activates the ACCELEROMETER. Just go like this:
SETTINGS > General > Sensor settings > ON!
Voila! Accelerometer activated!
And I would like to tell you that YES :) The CAMERA on this phone is SUPERB.
Already using it for more than 2 months now. I have the Chestnut Brown one. Pity to those who have the Titanium one.

I got this phone on a contract upgrade yesterday afternoon. This morning i returned it! The blasted thing just restarts on its own. Nice features yes, but value for money is important too. No use owning a car and it got no steering wheel, so no use owning a smart phone that doesnot work!

hey i bought a 6710 had the zoom in and out problem the texting problem not pushing half the buttons pushed, had it replaced 3 times with the first 1 receiving a software update and eventually got a refund after a long argument with the store manager as the was no store policy to be seen and he was denying refund or exchange with store credit, and this was all in 7 days, dont shop at tele-choice as u will have a tough time getting a refund

I've got this phone for two days now, and I've pushed it hard through its paces. It stood all the punishment I delivered and came out smelling like a rose ! The salesman from where I bought it told me that if something went wrong with the phone within 30 days of purchase, it will be replaced with a new unit - so that gives me plenty of time to further test it. So far no crashes or any other glitches.
I got the black phone. The salesman did tell me though, that several customers who took the Titanium color phone returned it with some complaints. I'll have to wait and see if mine starts to act up.
The user guide that came with the phone omitted several features. A full user manual can be obtained from the net. The compass is used in conjunction with the maps. If you jiggle the phone ( as shown in the manual ), while in the map mode, a green ring should appear round the compass - this shows that the compass is active. If there is a white or yellow ring round the compass, keep jiggling it till a green ring appears.
The music player delivers very good sound, and the FM stations are crystal clear. I heard that the camera is superb, but I am yet to test it.
The presence of a dictionary, office applications and the Adobe reader are really nice touches. I write a lot, and all these applications come in very handy.
The only gripe I have so far is that it does not seem to have an accelerometer. Maybe there is; I have to go through the manual and re-check.
The 3.5mm socket for the headphones is very welcome. Now I can use my good quality headphones to listen to music from the 6710.
So far, I'm very pleased with this phone. I don't know what the days ahead will bring. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will continue to perform as it has done. I have no need for an iPhone with its thousands of applications. The Nokia 6710 Navigator is my cup of tea !

I bought this phone Jan2010 and experienced no problems until 3 weeks later when the phone amazing turned itself off.
I went back to the dealer who took the battery out and popped it back in and it worked!!
Sadly this has only lasted two weeks as in the middle of texting it just froze and then switch itself off and now the blasted thing wont turn on at all!!
So back to the Three Phones tomorrow morning GRRR!!!

I had the 6710 for five days and it had 6 problems like the continuous zooming, freezing, "hum", etc. I was issued with a new one but that one also "hummed" and was returned within a day. Shame on Nokia for irritating the public with such products.

I Sooo wish i had read these posts before going through what you all have. my first instantly had the zooming and lazy key problems. Replaced within 7 days, the second one seemed perfect until i made a call on 2g(gsm) loud buzzing and crackling heard on other end regardless of strong signal. second DOA. now awaiting my 3rd 6710. after a long wait, my service providor has informed me that there HAS been a recall. what does this mean though? out of stock is now displayed on their website. (no mention of update or replacment.) for me a featureless budget phone on the same plan is all im offered. What phone for the same price has lifetime free navigation?
