I'm interested in purchasing one, but reading all of the reviews I've been put off. There obviously seems to be a fundamental flaw in the design to causing all of these 'phones to "freeze" up. I wonder what Nokia are doing about this, because if it was my phone I would have had my money back ages ago. Anyway I've been put off purchasing one and might wait a while.

I have a 7280. Nice phone with great features. It has loads of memory which is great. Mine freezes only sometimes and sometimes the backlight on the keypad sometimes flashes on and off but not to fussed over that. All the buttons still work. Anyway, great phone, but a little hard to text without numbers. The numbers make it easier. But, o well you get that. Good Job Nokia.

I purchased a Nokia 7280, it was the worst phone i have ever bought. I sent it back to the supplier twice and i now have a Sony Ericsson. All it did was freeze up on me and then just totally stopped working. The supplier also informed me after that Nokia had advised the phone had 'software problems'.

the 7280 i got doesnt freeze. my works perfectly. the only bad thing is when you slide open the cover for the camera, the red part its really east to get scratch.

I recently got my Nokia 7280 in Hong Kong. It's a really stylish phone and the sound quality of the FM radio is EXCELLENT. Unfortunately, the more I use it, the more problems I've noticed. First of all, the leather case wraps around the cellphone and protects the phone from scratches. It looks very sophisticated but since the case has no hole for the speaker, I can hardly hear a thing when someone calls. And in addition to the freezing screen everyone has mentioned about, I also cannot turn off the Ascending ring!!! :( It drove me crazy!!! >_< *sigh* but I've gotten used to it! :P I'll probably just get it flashed later on...

For the one who said that the rich peple use VERTU. May I inform you that VERTU is a phone with no features with a monochromatic display. It's not a phone in the right sense of the word. You better call it a jewllery not a phone. So the Nokia 7280 is the most trendy terminal. And at the and: Tineri pana la moarte, inima sus romani becali e cu voi

Hey, ive been reading that this phone freezes often. Does anyone know whether its just the first batch of 7280's that freezes or do the newly produced ones freeze aswell??

The Phone has a tendency to freeze. There are a number of bugs when the phone's screen turns silver whilst you are doing something and then will not de-silver. Lastly my phone is now in repair as it locked up when trying to get a GPRS signal. Hope it will come back soon, as I love all the other features. Surprisingly easy to use.

it's very frustrating to dial numbers and to text message.. The only thing good about this phone is the mirror in the front so i can put my lipgloss on.

That is not a phone! Looks more like a Swiss Army Knife for girls.

For those that have read my previous posts, you may know that we've had to exchange 3 times already because of the battery.
Well, the latest one (5 weeks old) has developed a fault and we have to send it for repair. The fault was the display would flicker between white and normal. Imagine your PC desktop going to white, then coming back...thats the effect.
Its a shame but the quality of these particular phones seem to be poor...we've never had any problems with nokias previously, but we're sticking with the phone...its nice when its working.

I have just bought a 7280 and it is constantly freezing and crashing when trying to make or receive a call. it's a really nice phone and if you can put up with the faults buy it but if not don't bother because it will drive you mad
