How does this 13 year old phone stack up to modern phones in 2020? Well, not that great 😉 But it holds a charge longer than any modern smartphone and has some cool games! This is a budget phone from 2007, although it could very well be that this particular phone was produced in 2009 because that's what the date is set as by default.
Note that the phones language is in Dutch, I checked later and you can set the the language to English. I forgot to do that before recording the video 🤭

Nokia 2760 Review: The Nokia 2760 was released mid-way through 2007 and like many Nokia releases of this time was one of a pair: the Nokia 2660 was released alongside it. The key difference between these two models was that the 2760 featured a camera, whereas the 2660 did not.
Both of these phones succeeded the Nokia 2650. This was released way back in 2004 and was something of a surprising success, combining an interior rubberized finish with an exterior hard plastic shell.
Times had moved on quickly since then and Nokia had produced a decent range of flip-type phones. But the 2-series was always a budget one so we could not expect the boat to be pushed out too far here. And so it proved for the Nokia 2760, despite the metallic looks, a feel of this would reveal this to be pretty plasticky.
The phone was also rather under-specced relative to many other phones at this time, which was no surprise given the price point. One of the major selling points was that the phone gained a front-facing mono LCD, something pretty good for the budget.
