Be Impressed by the Nokia 7205 Intrigue


Although I normally don't cover mobile phones created for only one network, the Nokia 7205 Intrigue for Verizon Wireless is cool enough to make me want to write about it. Not quite state of the art (Nokia has definitely done better), this handset distinguishes itself with its price (180$ with a two-year Verison Wireless contract) and absolutely fabulous appearance.

The phone has A2DP Bluetooth, a 2-megapixel camera, PMOLED display on the back, microSD slot of up to 8GB and a great-looking home screen. It has a shiny, all-black sleek exterior and is dashboard-capable. It uses a standard Li-ion battery to recharge and is available in Silver and Pink. You all know how I hate pink. However, the cool pink to black blending effect makes even me think about getting the pink version of this phone (my wife would love it).

Too bad I'm a GSM user and also a European. But knowing Nokia, it is probably planning something just as good looking for Europe, too. This phone is intriguing to say the least. But the feature I like most is the Habitat Mode, a cool-looking user interface that allows the phone to assign nature-inspired icons displayed in chronological order. The icons can also be replaced by photos of your loved ones and friends.

Your phone's background picture changes colors in accordance with what time of the day it is but the possibility of selecting a non-cycling color theme is also present. The Nokia 7205 Intrigue definitely deserves its name, wouldn't you say?

Oh, and for all you eco-friendly people out there, this phone comes packaged in eco-friendly materials, with an eco-friendly literature bundle and environmental theme. Add to this a downloadable Captain Planet ring tone and you're set (there has to be a Captain Planet ring tone somewhere)!
