Ha Ha Ha. I was thinking of buying this phone but due to all these bad reveiws on this page ive read im getting a Sony Ericsson K510i which will be a nice upgrade from my Sagem V-65 if anyone should be of help to persuade me other wise my desicion is final :P besides the K510i is much cheaper and has about the same amount of stuff just not as good a screen or camera.

oxygen,you can save direct to card.i have this phone.it, quite different from symbian,but finnaly you can.what is interesting is that not all bluetooth received files era saved auto on card,some of them smaller are received first in phone memory at "download files",and you must select-move-open card-and save to folder you want on card.i like vga video,it looks great and if you convert 3gp to mpeg4 movie file you can burn it at s-video cd.i tried this and it looks great on big screen tv,much better than video made with n80,90& co.but i wait for n93!!! vga,mpeg4,stereo audio,night mode.no comment

i saw this type of phone...it seems a good one...and the design is very nice, thinking that nokia did some phones beautiful but their performance was worse. good job this time,nokia!

I am using this phone for almost 2 months now. I don't know about you guys, but I think I'm going to give it to my wife and stick with the k750i. And that's because it keeps on hanging for no reasons and the bluetooth doesn't work properly. I sent it for service but they gave it back with the same problems. I give up. My wife uses her phone only for calling, and sometimes the camera to take pictures of our baby, so I think it'll be perfect for her. Never had such problems with my k750i, which I think the best in its class.

Mihai: They mean two cameras, so instead of the video [during video calls] capturing what's infront of you, the video captures you. I suppose you could use a mirror in lieu of this.
I have no problem with this, because 3G reception where I live is patchy, but 2G reception is quite fine.
Backlight doesn't hang around for long enough, but the quality of the LCD and the camera make up for that :)
Phone does its job, though it was all a little confusing to start off with.

reading about this phone i was thinking it was great, a really good idea for nokia to do a phone in the 3g market thhat isnt as high end as the n70 or 6680 but then no front camera is just terrible on a 3g phone! whats wrong with nokia lately? even the n91 lacks the front camera!

P.S.
My 6234 arrived earlier than expected and yay, it's got night mode! And, SO FAR, I'm chuffed with the phone. The sound is phenomenal and the camera is fab. What's everyone going on about when they say they can't believe there's no camera on the front??? Don't quite understand what they mean by this. Just change your navi-key settings and you can program it to take you straight into the camera, whichever way you press it.

I'm having a 6234 delivered on Monday because I hated the keypad so much on my 6280. I don't admit to know everything about mobiles but having read one of the reviews on this site, which includes:-
....the only fault that i could think of with is was the lack of a flash,but providing theres enough light the camera is awesome.
When I read this, I thought "oh dear" - I'm obviously downgrading whereas I thought I was getting a phone on a par with the 6280. So it hasn't got a flash? Can someone tell me please if it still has "night mode"? I found this very good on previous Nokias, including the 6280. Hope someone can help, please? Thanks for reading.

What in the name of sweet Jesus is there no camera on the front of the phone? Its supposed to be the same as N70 and V3x but wtf? Video calling is pointless on this phone, you need a front camera so as not to be turning the phone around to see who you are talking to, HOW COULD THEY F**K UP ON THIS? WHAT A MESS OF A PHONE. BIN IT

and to continue previous post, wouldn't change k750 for 6234 because: k750's better battery, better photos & display, better audio (walkman / radio) quality; call quality is quite the same BUT my k750 has the latest firmware update (with previous versions, call quality was bad).would use 6234 for size, keypad and because it is newer. would use k750 for music, photos, activity-menu, file-manager and because its larger internal memory. 6234 saves received files in on-board memory and then you have to move it to external memory (that's bad...)

got one yesterday from vodafone romania. comparing it with k750i it has good handling, nice materials, good keypad(let's say 8/10 for this one and 5/10 for k750i), the camera button is too small. Audio quality is ok, sms ok, haven't tried 3g and camera quality (but it does have video vga resolution).PC sync OK. Media plyer ok (but not as good as k750i), radio quality a little under k750i.It seems a bit more easy than k750; the screen is a bit bigger, but the display quality a little worse. can't figure out how can i see exactly how much battery i have left except for the bar icon on top. active stand-by is not qood-looking, but practical after you get used with it. is good that you can customize all soft keys (unlike k750i where you can change only joystick functions). i was dissapointed to see that it really doesn't bring anything new. it is a copy of k750 made by nokia, with small additions like 3g, vga video capture and flight-mode, but without autofocus and less interesting interface graphics (6234 interface is practical but not very nice).
