Which is better in terms of software or UI? n70 or n72?

Question

People say to me that the n70 has the same software as the 3250, is it true? do u think ist worth to buy a n70?

Answer 1

If I were you, I would go a little bit higher than the N 70 or 72. cause the phones are specifically made to replace either the Ipod or the digital camera. besides, they don't have a vibrating alert. The software is the same yes, cause they are both series 60 phones, but they are not made out for the same pupose. .check the site below. I made a comparison of most of the n series and the 3250 phone. I t would tell you more of that I am saying.

Good Luck!
