This is a great phone! and for those who don't own one don't say things that you really don't know. this is one of the best phones out in the market today. it has great features and is the all aroud tool for enjoyment and business alike. megapixel? go for a digicam, Mono mp3? go for an IPOD. 6260 is a phone with added features. it is not like the gadgets you want. and cant you hold an IPOD, A DIGICAM,A PHONE,with both hands? guess what the answer is NO. If u have the money buy this great fone!

Hi Abhishek! N6600 is Very Popular in India and thats why i sold my 6600 and bought N6260. It has Word & Power Point Viewer, FM Stereo, Built-in MP3 Player & VPN Connectivity. If you like its Design then It is Good. You can't get this much features at this price
--Drwabacks are Uncomfortable Keypad, Poor Look, Big Size.
--To check the missed call or sms, each n every time u'll have to open the Flap
--MP3 Quality is same as other Phones because all are giving MONO Sound. Only 6230 and Upcoming 7280 can give MP3 Stereo. 7280 is with Surround Sound.
--As I think, This phone is not going to stay in market for a Long Time and it will give Low Resale Value.

got it two weeks ago.my mini-review...
THE GOOD: twists and turns, headturner. symbian OS, excellent display
THE BAD: mono mp3 plaback, editing the "go-to" is a chore, confusing navigational buttons at below the screen.
THE UGLY: poor, REALLY POOR construction (scratches appear out of nowhere, you can even chip off the paint with a fingernail), plasticky feel, unstable hinge
VERDICT: good features but cheap workmanship. all in all, probably will have low resale value.

If I hadn't lost my 3650 then 6260 would NOT have been worth the upgrade. However, if you don't currently own a Symbian smartphone, it's worth considering because it's currently the most affordable one of the recent models, and looks cool. (Still, Symbian-phone people don't require "cool" as the OS and apps/games themselves are already plenty cool enough
Some flaws:
* Build quality. Hello, is this a Nokia? Doesn't feel like one, but by all means try it yourself. Anyway, with 2 years warranty, this may become Nokia's problem rather than mine.
* It doesn't feel faster than my old 3650!? That one was adequate though, so is this one. Still you're waiting about 2 seconds before your contacts show up after pressing the button. You'd think it would be instant with a more recent phone. No complaints about other things, such as T9 text entry is plenty fast enough.
* Ring tone 'euphoniousness' (is that a word?) is not improved. Adequate, but not concert hall like some Samsungs. (Again, Symbian poeple aren't Nancy's who buy phones for their cute looks & sounds. If you want something that looks and sounds cute, go get a baby.)
* Camera application automatically starts when you swivel the display. Why? Have to exit the app every time you swivel the display! Nokia apparently still thinks of a camera as a core use of this thing. Also the resolution is not as good as other recent Nokia phones, but having established that phone cameras are toys anyway and that 6260 is affordable, I don't see this as a minus.
* Full camera resolution is ONLY available with the display flat against the base, with the display pointing at the sky for 'landscape' shots, or sideways (away from you) for standing-up 'portrait' shots. Any other display position will result in something like 480x320, not 640x480. Why? (The only think I could think of may be that the smaller image size may be more usable when sent to other phones that have smaller displays.. Still.. why not make this user configurable. For shooting at maximum resolution you now have to look straight down at the screen, holding the phone horizontally. My grandfather used to own one of those cameras with the viewfinder pointing at the sky so you had to look straight down into it. It's exactly like that!
* Awkward placement of the pencil button.
This is the button that even many reviewers don't understand what it does anyway, but it's used to SELECT TEXT for copying and pasting between applications, AND to select multiple items, messages, emails, pictures so they can all be sent or deleted all at the same time. So an ESSENTIAL thing for a smartphone. With the button so close to the joy-pad, holding the button and dragging/selecting text to the left becomes VERY difficult.
* Battery life has not improved... You'll be charging it every other day, or every day if you play around with it a lot. Then again, this is fair due to the Series 60's overall awesomeness

0.3 megapixel with poor picture quality, hard to use keypad, twist and turn to take pic, damn troublesome. FAILURE OF THE YEAR.
