Screen Size: The 3.7 screen size is good, but I am spoiled by the DVP's larger screen size.
Lumia 710 by Carrie
While there’s a general trend in the smartphone industry to push way above the 4-inch screen size, Nokia’s 3.7-inch choice here makes sense for a variety of reasons.

The screen is beautiful with good color and resolution.
Lumia 710 by Colin (May, 2012)
Resolved detail just isn't up to 5MP standards, colors look washed out and the camera obviously struggles in low-lit scenes.

Lumia 710 by Chris-D-Meadows--Chris-M (Nov, 2012)
The 1GHz CPU and 512MB RAM threshold has been lowered and the Lumia 610 does reasonably well with an 800MHz processor and 256MB of RAM.

Frankly, I wasn't expecting much from the phone's 5-megapixel camera, but was pleasantly surprised by the shots I snapped.

Microsoft allows device manufacturers to extend its camera software with addons, and it’s one of the hardware aspects that others are using to differentiate (like the Titan II’s 16-megapixel shooter).

All WP7 phones use more or less the same hardware (slight differences in CPU clock speed are possible), so any WP7 will run on any WP7 phone.

I was genuinely surprised to see that Windows Phone continued to launch apps and switch between the various hubs just as fast as other devices equipped with double the RAM and processor speed.

The Lumia 710 has a "ClearBlack" LCD, which is what Nokia calls its proprietary display technology.

Results from the VGA resolution were reasonable and the camera handles autofocus well alongside varying light conditions.

Not only is the interface customisable, letting you pin pretty much anything (apps, websites, contacts) to the home page (up to 250 tiles if you must know), but it also brings you notifications within the tiles themselves, letting you know when you’ve got email, missed calls or unread messages.

It has a 5-megapixel sensor, autofocus and flash - the latter two making it much more flexible than some.

good phone for this price, it has everything you will need in a smartphone, windows 7 is very cool but not enough to reach android or IOs.

WINDOWS phones are better than ANDROIDS!!!! I heard old ones weren't that great, but these new ones will blow you away.

With that being said, I do love Windows Phone, and I just ordered a Nokia Lumia 900 (against my better judgement since this Windows Phone is a lifeless carcass now).

Buy this in your choice knowing that bluethoot not work, the camera does not work, with few applications and games for Windows Marketplace a phone with 256MB of memory and storage 4.01 GB of 6.21 GB Place the cell, Windows Phone 7.5 as Windows and Nokia say update to 7.8 since January we are waiting to happen, because that date had changed then and until today no date available.

If you want to transfer photos, videos, notes and contacts to a PC you need to install Zune, not directly as do the other phones.
Rated 40% by by Ramon-David-Morales--David-Morales
The phone itself is very good as a phone, but the comparison with another Nokia (not Windows Phone) this is the truth: Bluethoot not transfer the contacts, pictures, images or anything else, just for connectivity with some handsfree devices easy disconnects and fails much.

type

If you’re on a tight budget then the Lumia 610 is a better option than most other feature phones, but if you can find a Lumia 710 at a good price then this will likely serve you better and help avoid some of the restrictions of a 256MB of RAM Windows Phone.
Nokia Lumia 610 | Rated 61% by by The Verge (Jun, 2012)
The usual ISO, white balance, and effects settings are present, but there’s no face tracking or burst mode options like other Windows Phone handsets from HTC and others.

design

Nokia has rounded off the corners of its Lumia 610 to present a design that's more akin to its Lumia 710 than the square edges of the Lumia 800 and 900.
