I got this phone a couple of weeks ago. I wanted to buy a symbian smartphone so I could install apps, games and so. I wanted to buy Nokia 5320, becouse it was cheaper, but this one has built in GPS, wifi and FM transmitter.
The phone performance is awesome, it is easy to use right out of the box, even for someone like me who never had a smartphone before.
the screen is bright and the image quality is great. sound quality es very good using earphones and the stereo speakers work fine as well.
Built in applications are OK, comes with adobe reader, quick office(only lets you read docs, not edit them), zip, calculator and unit converter. There are lots of websites where you can download tons of apps and games for this phone.
GPS works well, takes a while to get the location the first time, but that happens with every gps I know.
Wifi works great, I got connected on restaurants, shopping malls, etc.
The camera takes good pictures, I have a good camera so I don't care about this feature so much. Still it is an ok camera if you don't have a better one at hand. The flash is useless if you want to take a picture of someone standing more than 1 m (3 ft) away.
The FM transmitter was factory disabled, I needed to search the web for the way to unlock it. It is really easy to do. You just have to change the product code and upgrade the firmware.
I didn't like the keyboard so much, the number keys are close together and are sometimes hard to press if you have large fingers like I do.
The D pad paint chipped off 2 days after I started using it. That sucks!
I hated the back cover right from the start, it creeks sometimes when I press the keys, i has a very shiny finish that scratched really fast. I need to put my phone in a silicon case soon.
My battery runs out in less than 24hs, I use the phone a lot, but I expected a bit more battery life. Wall Charger works great, takes 1hour to fully charge it.

The most complete N series, packed with newest OS and with reasonable price.
It has some minus, but more PROS than cons for sure !!!
fm transmitter, nice 3.2mpx smooth camera, nice battery life, HSDPA, WIFI, GPS and aGPS, sleek design...
It has some fault but hoping NOKIA could fix that in future.

The phone has the best options like camera, good FM Hi Fi sound, 44 play songs, elegant I am very proud to own it. One annoying term is I cannot change languages. I bought this N78 at the UAE it has English and arabic language only. I need to have selections like French etc. 2nd thing annoying when sending messages I could not find the key for spacing btwn words the display is not user frendly.

I just got this phone about a week ago and it is splendid so far.Before buying the n78,I noticed that most people were making a fuss about its battery cover, its ''awkard'' design and rather ''odd'' keypad.
Contrary to such views, I find this phone perfectly framed from battery cover to keypad.
Its elegant shape coupled with its flexibility as far as technology is concerned really makes the n78 a phone worth owning.I am a Sonyericcson fan yet I am really impressed with this product of Nokia.
Kudos Nokia.

It's been great to use the phone for over 3 days now! I love it! Most of all is the new OS in nokia and the navi wheel! (oh so love it!)
just grab one and you'll know it how beautiful it is!
The keypads are good! It's not like what we've seen! hehe! so I grant this phone a perfect one! I have been used almost all the top notch nokia n series like n82, n95, n95 8gb, n73 and alse in e series the e65 and e61i but no one beats the n78! maybe the comming n96 but who know???! hehehe!

I think this N78 is cool . I bought it for a week and i think the phone is gd. PROS and CONs !!!!!!!
PROS
1) Like the black colour and its design
2) Got MAPs which guide u to the destination u want while u are driving
3) Loud music and good audio player
4) When u view the menu and all the document u can use your thumb to rotate the direction button to move right and left quickly
5) SLIM and not heavy
CONS
1) Camera not that good as u think
2) sometimes will lag but rarely
3) most importantly point of all , THERE IS NO GAMES so KID better dun buy it coz i need to download to play the game.
Overall it is still quite a gd and nice phone probably business worker should buy it not the children. gd for driver also.
