Staying Connected with the Nokia Lumia 710 {Review and Giveaway}

Nokia Lumia 710 review

My son is 12 going on 16 and I’m seeing more and more that he is wanting to be connected to his friends outside of school.  I am very pleased with his choice in friends so I don’t mind the occasional phone call or text.  I recently received a Nokia Lumia 710 to review and I’ve learned that while Moms and their teenagers may be a generation apart, the Nokia Lumia 710 offers something that every age desires – a great phone that makes it simple to connect with friends. Weighing only 4.4 ounces, this phone is not too heavy for a purse or pocket.  It is available in black or white, but you can dramatically change its look by changing out the Xpress-On covers. These covers come in many colors and fun styles.

Text messaging is a breeze with the onscreen keyboard. The autocorrect capability of this phone keeps you from worrying about making silly mistakes. Moms like that they can keep in touch with friends and family without endlessly going back to make corrections. Teens like that they can type out messages in a flash!

The Windows Marketplace has over 55,000 apps to keep you informed, entertained, and productive. Besides Facebook and Twitter, you will also find Foursquare, Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja, and just about every other fun game you can imagine. With T-Mobile TV and Netflix available, teens will never be bored again!

Life is full of fun moments; and fun moments were meant to be captured and shared. The 5MP camera, with LED flash, takes excellent pictures and can record stutter-free video. The Twitter and Facebook apps are integrated into the Windows Phone system so posting pictures is a snap. Teens want to go out with their friends, but moms will always worry. With GPS navigation, parents know that their kids won’t get lost while they’re out making those memories.

After all the Facebook updates, Tweets, and text messages, there’s nothing like hearing the voice of someone special on the other end of the call. T-Mobile’s excellent nationwide network ensures that calls come in crystal clear no matter where you are. Whether you’re a teenager, or a teenager’s mom, the Nokia Lumia 710 is the perfect choice for staying connected with the special people in your life.

  1. i always use my phone and web to find family things to do or get info to help better learning. the phone i have now isn’t very good for moms like me that can’t connet to all the tools i need. a phone like this would be good to go on sites that only newer phones can use. thanks for your time.

  2. OH I would love to win this phone. I currently have an old pay as you go phone and cannot even text. would love to be able to text along with the rest of the family. Always feel so left out.

  3. I love the high quality camera – it’s nice to always have a camera on hand with my 2.5 year old son. And I love that it’s easy to upload the photos or share them with family/friends.

  6. I would love to win this phone to give to my husband. He would love to have a phone like this but would never buy one.

    THANKS AGAIN!!!

  8. I think having Windows Marketplace would be a great feature of this phone. You can get a wealth of information and have it with you at all times.

    Thanks for the great giveaway opportunity.

  9. I’m actually about due for a new phone (as my current phone is a Garminfone and it isn’t all that). The Nokia Lumia is my front-runner for when I upgrade. If I won one, I would be thrilled!

  10. I love almost everything about the Nokia Lumia 710! But am most excited about the online keyboard, and camera, with LED flash!

  11. Considering that the older phone I have now makes and receives calls–period. That’s all it does.–I am a bit gaga over all the features of this one! The connections! The apps! And it just looks cool.
