Low-budget as well as mid-end mobile phones are available in this new series. ‘Supernova’ is an unexpected choice for the name of a mobile phone line. Supernova stems from astronomy and relates to an impressive explosion of a star during which a lot of light is freed. With the Supernova series, Nokia tries to attract the trend-sensitive consumer who wants to show his or her personality through his/her mobile phone. The phones have colorful designs and some of them even have a very bold design.

Nokia Supernova review - Menu & Operation

The menu of the Nokia 7100 is exactly like the one we're used to from Nokia - clear and straightforward. The main menu consists of some ten icons and can be displayed as either a list or a roster. Not only are standard options available in the menu, but the organizer and web browser can be found here as well. The menu is simple, clear and quite cheerful too, thanks to the color monitor. If you tilt the phone slightly, the change in contrast causes light text and pictures to become unclear. The navigation keys and the left and right selector can serve as shortcuts. This way you can customize the device and quickly access frequently used options such as text messages, the Bluetooth menu or the MP3 player function.

 

 

 

Nokia Supernova games

Among the applications in the main menu are some standard games. The Nokia 7100 Supernova offers: Backgammon, City Bloxx and Snake 3. The latter is an old acquaintance on Nokia mobile phones, however; over time it has been upgraded and improved and looks good on the Nokia 7100. Personally, I find Backgammon rather boring, but I like City Bloxx. The object of the game is to create buildings as high as possible by stacking floors. It's great for killing time.
