The keyboard comes with access to emoticons, emoticons such as :),: D, <3 and the like, but do not form images like the BlackBerry. For features in the typing, there is word suggestion, auto-correct and auto-start capital for the first letter of sentences. Typing is quite easy to do, keyboard and what is displayed on the screen is very responsive, but the size of the keyboard is not too large considering the screen is only 3.7 inches, so maybe you are a big fingers will find it hard to type in portrait mode.

In the standard SMS messaging is not only just but also integrated with Windows Live Messenger coupled with Facebook Chat, you can see who's online. In addition, all integrated in the Threads submenu. In general, SMS and chat is easy to use even though you may be confused which one is Facebook Chat, which is SMS.

These arrangements all but flash to use words instead of icons so that the camera is quite easy to use 710 Lumia. Features touch to shots available, as is the camera button, despite its small size.

Results Camera

5 megapixel video recording is quite good, producing colors that kicking and enough detail. For indoor noise is visible but there are not too distracting. Please see the following photographs:




Video Recorder


For the result is a video recorder 720p HD video. There are two resolution options available that is 720P and VGA (640x480 pixels). Other features are the Scenes, White Balance, Exposure Value, Effects, Contrast, Saturation, Auto focus and Flicker Reduction and Flash.

Existing images you can directly Share via MMS, Hotmail, Facebook, Twitter, Skydrive and other accounts. Moreover, it can be added to the Favorite and used as wallpaper, as well as in the auto fix.

Music + Videos


The songs and videos on Windows Phone are combined, through synchronization via Zune which is the only way to enter the content. Music + Videos consists of the Zune (music, video, podcasts and radio), History, New, and Applications, which has applications TuneIn Radio in it.

The music player divides the songs into standard categories such as Album, Songs, Playlists, Genres, Artists. As WP 7 itself, the music player looks modest and simple. There are no sound effects or equalizer. Sound output via the loudspeaker at the highest volume louder and louder as though filled treble loudspeaker phones in general.



For the video player is rather disappointing. Because it must use the Zune to include video. Indeed, Apple iPhone 4 or 4S must use iTunes, just to enter the video. Mp4 720p maximum resolution you do not need to convert, just plug it into iTunes and sync. In Windows Phone, mp4 video should be converted first into an acceptable format Windows Phone. This will make the process of adding video to enter a long time, especially if your computer is quite slow in converting video. Even worse, though it was converted, but when played on a video player built-video look less smooth, frameratenya feels less if you compare it with Android or IOS devices that can play video. Mp4 720p resolution.

Then the local connectivity is a-GPS, Bluetooth 2.1, WiFi (802.11 b / g / n). For charging and connection to a PC, Lumia mempiliki 710 micro USB port.

Its features include Favourite, share to social networking and email, cookies and the option to open a type of website whether mobile or full website. You can also put a link that you are open at the start. Of standard searches using Bing, the search results that appear unique.

Browser performance when you open the full version of the site TeknoUp decorated a lot of content very smoothly, no lag happens. When zooming with a pinch, a very quick response and rendering done was completed instantly. Tabs are available only 6 course, if you add another tab can indeed be done, but the earliest tab missing.

Default Applications


MarketPlace


This application is a smartphone application store for Windows Phone. Divided into various categories such as entertainment, music, video, tool, productivity, games, social and others. You can see what applications are running top. When selecting an application, you can see the details, ratings, reviews and screenshots. But the problem is still a constraint region. We are attempting to download TweetCaster and Facebook (both are free) but there is a message of rejection stating the application is not available for your region.

TuneIn Radio


This application adds an FM tuner functionality in the mobile phone so users can enjoy WP7 radio broadcasts live via cell phone, via streaming application has more than 50,000 channel options (including radio AM / FM, podcasts, and internet), which broadcasts in 140 countries and broadcast in more than 100 different languages.

Nokia Maps and Nokia Drive


In this application you can see the position based on the 3 modes, maps, satellite and public transport. When zooming, fast performance and smooth. But you need the Internet to operate this application properly. While at Nokia Drive you can download the map, here the map of Indonesia size is only 170 MB and of course free. Unfortunately for the direction Indonesian guide shows only male voices only.


Third-Party Applications
WhatsApp
Which is quite popular chat applications are available free on the Marketplace, with more or less the same features with Android and IOS version, just different view, been the typical appearance of Windows Phone.


Battery Life
The number of applications that require internet connection such as People, Me, Picture and others make Lumia 710 battery endurance is not so good. From position 100 percent, 710 Lumia which we review only lasted from 9 am to 4 pm only to be filled before returning. Use of the Internet using WiFi, connected with Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp.



Conclusion

If you want a Windows Phone just to try Microsoft's operating system, the Lumia 710 is an appropriate choice because of its features do not vary much with Lumia 800. But if you want a better screen and a design that is more eye-catching, you can buy Lumia 800. The inadequacies of this phone is its own most basic weakness Windows Phone OS itself, something reasonable considering the OS is still relatively new compared to IOS and Android.
