The Nokia N70 (type RM-84, codenamed Rolf) is a 3G candybar phone announced by Nokia on 27 April 2005 and released in September of the same year.
It was a part of the Nseries line of multimedia phones. It was also one of the first Nseries phones, along with the Nokia N90. It was available in Silver and Ivory on Pearl.
The N70 is in essence an improved Nokia 6680, with a similar form factor but with improved cameras and significantly more RAM available for applications.
Issues
