Nokia N76 well I own one, but not sure I would buy another. I have had it only a few months and the chrome is looking sick, peeling badly. classy piece of junk. Not a phone I want to be seen using in public anymore. This phone has no back up here in NZ. So I cannot get a new case. I have no other problem and would like to stay with Nokia. but not if this is the standard they are working to.
It is in the same class as the V series Motorola 5 out of 10. Not good for a fairly costly phone. Shame on Nokia. My Sharp gx30i was a better phone!
I have complained to Nokia, but have yet to talk to anybody in New Zealand, only Malasia. They just tell me to send it back to the counrty of origin, to have it fixed.
Why can I not buy a new case?
I have owned 30 plus Nokias over the years, then found a clamshell by Sharp, that served me well and stayed with them until I found the N76, but looks like I may be going back to Sharp, they were very good phones all round, and generaly lasted longer than any of the Nokias. Hey I am rough on phones, but expect them to perform, Climbing trees or out in the boat. I have not had many phones that have lasted over 12mths. But if it is my fault it gets broken, I do not complain, just move on. The V3 was one of worst phones I have ever owned. dust got into this phone with-in 6weeks and the screen was already hard to see in daylight. Nokias menue and dictionery are top of the line. Battery is not that great, but this is a clamshell and does not have the space for a larger Battery, like a slide phone. Bloody shame the very poor quality case lets down the N76, ( I would of thought Nokia would of solved this by now, how hard can it be?) which otherwise seems to be a very good phone, so far
When they start to look rough I get a new one. But have buried them, dropped them when clearing the trailer at the Tip, found them after dropping them and they have then been run over. broken a lot of cases when they get dropped. seen them go belly up when salt water flows over them, watched as petrol has melted the case on more than one phone. And a few I cannot account for.
The N76 rocks, please Nokia make a new case that is of a standard that suits the phone.

I purchased this phone a year ago and i was so bummed that a couple of days ago it got water damage and all that comes up when i turn it on the screen is all blue and works normally but it still works fine lol. It really is a great phone and for those that cant be bothered geting the chrome fix try peeling it all off the phone looks real good with white.

The only reason that the N76's speaker is not so good is because the handset is not made for listening music on top volume but just so you the user can hear it so 1 good tip put it on top volume and then just 1 level lower that helps a lot. The silwer which is peeling off, is covered under warrenty if there is no physical damage on the handset. In other words this is an excellent phone and i will recomend it to anyone.

Crystal, 01 Jan 2009Hey Anonymous, if you don't like this phone then hate it bu... moreCrystal, actually all hand phones have different ability and people will have likes and dislikes on hand phones. It common to have negative comments but I think that this hand phone is quite good. It just that the silver thing peels off easily and the loudspeaker problems. But to someone that post choose other hand phones, I forbid that. Now is comment on this N76 and not introduce other hand phones. Too much negative comments, I also forbid. According to Crystal, I think she like this hand phone a lot but due to negative comments, she is confuse and angry. Actually not all hand phones have everything and were perfect.

I have my n76 now for about 11 months. Whoever complains about the price doesn't know what they're talking about. Best buy for it's price. Symbian OS rocks! I love multi-tasking. Seeing as this is a music phone with dedicated music keys, it only makes sense for the music player to always run in the background. The best feature of the n76 for me is the ablity to copy and paste text. The only bad thing about this phone is its 'loudspeaker'. The max volume is quite soft and the equalizer is useless! Have anyone heard the max volume of a nokia 6234? Twice as loud as that of a n76! Does anyone perhaps know of a way to tune the loudspeaker? I know that it's possible on older samsungs. If u pushed in *#8999*8378# it opened up a menu to check software versions, test vibration and tune the loudspeaker to be twice as loud as it was originally.
