Page 5 of 5 Benchmarking a Nokia 6600
At first it may appear odd to some we are not going to stop anything short also of benchmarking the Nokia 6600, smartphones in our view are prime candidates and to strengthen this view there is software to do just that. In our tests we will use benchmarking software specifically designed for Symbian devices and which review performance under such criteria such as math calculations, and graphical performance. Sadly we could not obtain specific 2D, 3D, text and animation benchmark data from other phones so we decided to simply indicate the overall value that JBenchmark produces. Please keep in mind what we said when discussing the Nokia’s 6600 efficiency as above, it is very much faster in 3D and fill rate than either a Nokia 7650 or 3650.   The performance of the Nokia 6600 in comparison with other cell phones. Conclusion
The Nokia 6600 cellular phone running a Symbian version 7.0s OS has as imagined proved to be not only a calling gadget but also a very universal device, much of this thanks to the OS it runs. The feature set it provides all within the palm of your hand makes for a most rewarding experience, and to top that further software can be installed granting it almost endless possibilities be it business or gaming. An appearance that may seem conservative to some minds proves ergonomic while its 65KTFT colour screen leaves little to taunt about. Being a worldwide device it may also serve those that travel often between continents, a feature alongside the lack of MMC support that the Nokia 7650 lacked. Granted the boot time is extensive compared to Nokia non Symbian phones the actual performance is balanced to permit very satisfying operation. Alongside speed consumer interaction is comfortable and even novice users should be quick off the mark to find a common language in navigating the handset. Symbian’s presence as the underlay of this and similar smartphones is predicted to grow in the volume of products it will feature in for the future and as such we can expect more competition revealing their own models, Nokia however will continue to develop this product line further so time will only tell who has the best expertise.
