I am about to buy a phone on Dec 22... Any ideas whether the 2720 is a better value that the 2760 phone ?
Thanks in advance

The 2720 is newer and has an FM radio. If that's worth $24 to you, then go for it.

Nope, I think not. Thanks for replying.

In my opinion the Nokia 2720 is just a bad phone, and considerably overpriced as well considering that everybody else sells it for much less than Speakout:
- shiny black plastic cover is a magnet for fingerprints and scratches, the phone always looks awful
- outside and inside displays both have poor visibiity
- navigation control is poorly designed and hard to use, with a very thin barely-raised bezel around the central button for directional control making it too easy to accidentally hit the central button
- earpiece volume is inadequate, barely usable at maximum volume when positioned carefully directly over the ear
- response to controls is slow
- no custom ring tones for contacts!
etc etc

Nokia makes plenty of decent cheap phones. Why did Speakout choose to offer this one?

I like the 2720. Good volume. Good display, etc. etc. It helps that I go 2 for 9.99 each I guess. T-mobile and unlocked.
I can't handle the 2760. Personal taste.

I also bought this phone in December and the volume sound is appalling anyone else had the same experience?

I am desperately looking to get a different phone that I can HEAR WHO IS speaking on the other end. Really bad quality sound, breaks and cracks up, barely audible. Why would they do this to us? it cost more with the deal to get this phone as well Nokia 2720.

Yeah, I just got this phone and when I got in a somewhat noisy situation (walking around home depot) I could not hear my wife on the other end even though I had the volume cranked to the max and the earpiece pressed against my ear really hard. I have to say I'm quite concerned about it at the moment.
