Nokia PC Suite Editor's Review

Connect to and manage your Nokia device with this handy Windows based tool.

Connecting your smartphone to your PC is important. Managing content on your phone isn't always as easy as you might think. This is why I like Nokia PC Suite for managing Nokia phones. It’s a synchronization and content management tool for Windows.

Nokia PC Suite is compatible with most Nokia devices. You can view all the supported models on Nokia's PC web site. The software is currently only on Microsoft Window.

To create a connection between your Nokia phone and your PC, you need a data cable, an infrared port, or Bluetooth connection. Some Nokia PC Suite applications manage data between your device and PC programs such as Microsoft Outlook or Lotus Notes, so you should have the appropriate credentials handy as well.

The application's main window provides you with a starting point for its available functions. From here, you can view and access all of the applications in the suite, provided they are available for your model Nokia phone. Not all suite apps work with every model Nokia phone.

The Suite provides you with an easy way of transferring files such as music, videos, images, and applications to the device, is to drag them on top of the device image displayed in the top left corner. Some of your files may need to be converted to be played on either your device or your PC.

Pros: Manages many Nokia phones, converts content from your phone, synchronizes data and content

Cons: Doesn't work with all Nokia phones

Conclusion: Managing your Nokia phone is easy with the Nokia PC Suite. While it doesn't work with every Nokia model, it should work with most. If you've got a Nokia phone, and you're not using the Nokia PC Suite, then you may be missing out.
