Nokia 6210 -- a mobile with a brain!

September 19, 2008

The Assisted GPS (A-GPS) set-up on the 6210 Navigator works with pre-loaded Nokia Maps software and Nokia also supplies a 1GB micro SD card with maps of eight cities and not to forget a six-month navigation licence.

The user can load maps on the go from Google Maps or download the whole map on PC and then transfer it on to the mobile saving the GPRS charges and a lot of time too.

Sadly, auto rotation does not work in Nokia Maps 2.0 as there is no landscape mode to view the maps (unlike the Nokia N95).

Further, the font is too tiny to be used comfortably during in-car navigation but works well when used for navigating around on foot.

In-car navigation with Nokia Maps offers turn-by-turn voice and visual guidance with a broad number of route-planning options that includes traffic information and re-routing.

This is the first Nokia with a built-in compass, although this feature comes handy only in case one has selected the Walk mode option.
