Hello,
In the middle of the review, the author says about the problem with lack of second external display, and a little strong noise of frequences from the earphone.Comparing this phone with 6170, this one offers me more & I think I'm gonna buy it as a gift for a lady.All I want to know is:
1-is The lack of external display really bothering? is it a problem to get known about missed calls or incoming messages in the normal mode?(closed)
2-Is the described noise problem serious?
3-Is it suitable for ladies?

      samiedz,

      N3230 is a newer version phone, and it's more powerful than N6260, N7610, N6600, etc... It have 1.3MP camera, can match with N6630, how to compare?

      If you like N3230, then go for it, but I believe the price will be about the same as 6630... If you can afford it, why not go for 6681? Dual Camera and WAY WAY much more powerful...

        Angus,

        Did you left your phone to charge for 12 hours the first time u buy the phone? I not sure what it does, but it's instructed by the seller for everyphone...

        If you did, probably your battery is faulty... Normally, it should be able to last about 3 days (with usage)... about the same as Nokia 6600 (although 6600 has higher mAh battery, but 6260 have better power saving and it uses RS-MMC, which conserve less power...

                    Owen,

                    There's a phone,...it's called the Motorola MPX... it's very big and it's actually a Pocket PC Phone, and it's very powerful and nice design... Can open in 2 ways, one like normal phone, second like Laptop... But it's not symbian and it's expensive...

                    As for MONO, it's not caused by the MP3,... in fact, the whole phone is MONO, ringtones, video, RADIO, etc... because as mention, it's the speakers... When you plugged in the STEREO headset, everyhting you hear will be STEREO, very much clearer, especially when watching movies and try to listen to the sound/words...

                      im looking for a symbian clamshell phone with the Panasonic X700 look and has all features like stereo MP3, stereo FM Radio, bluetooth, infra, cable, mega pix cam, hot swappable mem (MMC and SD compatible), 3G, can view/edit MS Word/Excel files, etc... (you know what i mean)... whatever company will build that phone, it sure will last on me for years...
                      LOL

                      by the way, i emailed Nokia and they replied after like 4days: and MP3 in N6260 is indeed MONO... how sad. but like what i've said, i can live with that... for now =)

                          Owen,

                          This is... business and marketing... they don't give you everything... look at 6600, it's the BEST Nokia Symbian phone when it's launched... but no RADIO? it's almost a COMPLETE phone at that time... and it's MONO speaker...

                          As for 6260 camera quality, I can't say much because of it's price... It's very cheap for a Symbian phone (except NGAGE), I would say the 2nd Cheapest after NGAGE looking at it's function and features...

                          Though, I hope they would come out with a "i" version, 6260i with 1MP above... Is there any request at Nokia? LoL

                            Rahul,

                            This phone has plastic feel? LoL, most Nokia Symbian phone is plastic, 6260 is also made of plastic (it only LOOKS like METAL, so you can have METAL feel)... Only drawback is the plastic is very thin type... but what you get is slimmer and more profesional look phone...

                            Anyway, IMO, THIS phone is the SECOND most complete NOKIA and BEST Symbian phone after 6600... It's almost complete except that:
                            1. MONO SPEAKER
                            2. LOW QUALITY CAMERA (Flip and TWIST function, makes it great for taking pictures and videos, but WHY low quality camera?)
                            3. NO FRONT DISPLAY

                            Anyway, if the camera quality is 1MP above, this phone will be very expensive,... imagine 7610, lack of a few feature (even 6600 is better), cost more than 6260, just because of it's 1MP Camera...

                            Well, just hope they can launch a 6260i with 1MP Camera at least...

                              shin,

                              Full version, and it's working fine... so, you might need to check for other version...

                              The working version is Version 2...

                                Devilhatred,

                                MCE error is your SMS function, if you have this error, RESTART your phone, else you would have problem recieving or sending SMS...

                                If after RESTART this error appear again, repeat the procedure again, if it occur again, you might wanna check what software you've installed cause the problem... else, you should send your phone for repair OR you can format your phone...

                                This error is very common in other Nokia Symbian phone and another error is "App Closed Main"...

                                If you feel your phone is unstable, you might need to update to a new firmware (if yours is old that is), cause the new firmware is considered very stable compared to other Nokia Symbian phone...

                                  unname,

                                  It's hard to say whether always turn will make the screen break... But, I'm sure since this phone is MADE with such function, it SHOULD able to handle a lot of twisting and flipping...

                                  BUT, it also depends on thew user, how you use it... If you twist it roughly, then nobody can guarantee it will NOT break, right? So, like I said before, this is a very fragile phone, HANDLE WITH CARE...

                                    I just cant imagine why they didnt installed same chipset for sound in 6260 and 3300. almost everything that im looking for in a cellphone is in 6260 (except for the MP3 quality and megapixel cam)
                                    =P

                                      i want to know if i should purchase this phone since there are a lot mixed reviews about it. Im basically interested in the mp3 player, radio, camera, and e-mail/instant messaging. does the phone really feel cheap and has a plastic feel

                                        thanks for the reply. Your friend install the trial or full version? Trial version works for me but full not.
