Rating: Summary: Dont Trust on T-mobile Rebates Review:
Hand set is good, but be aware of this T-MOBILE rebate. These people takes lest effort to process rebate forms. For last one month my Rebate status showing me that my rebate is apporved and check is delivered but still I am waiting for Check. There is no way you can talk with customer care about this.
Dont rely on T-Mobile rebates.
Rating: Summary: Next product, please. Review: Don't get me wrong. I love gadgets, technology and whatever electronic equipment you throw my way. I've gone from almost every Nokia phone since they were only known and operational in Europe. In those days I've gone from Oki, Motorolla and progressed (actually regressed) to Sony Ericsson's T610. Now I'm back to Nokia to try their 6600 model.If you haven't grown up using Nokia mobile phones, then you may not have any problem adapting to this "new" technological device. Here is the skinny: Cons: 1. It's bulky. How big and thick is it? We call it a BAR OF SOAP. I want a phone that performs first and foremost as a phone. You can equip it with so many features, but if it doesn't feel and operate like a basic phone then it doesn't deserve to be sold as a mobile phone. 2. User interface is based on Symbian - a collaboration of all the major mobile phone manufacturers. Sadly, the interface is still extremely slow. Think of an old computer with dial-up connection where you will have to wait for the pages to load. Yes, it's THAT SLOW. I still prefer Nokia's own user interface - it's fast, efficient and intuitive. You don't need a manual to go thru all the menus. Sadly, they are only making a few of these products that support Bluetooth without going the Symbian OS route. Pros: 1. On the plus side, it has Bluetooth which works flawlessly with my Apple PowerBook and iBook on Panther OS. It syncs all data on my Address Book and iCal - even the pictures and whatever data I throw at it. 2. It surfs the net if you get the optional service from your mobile provider. I can download and go to various sites such as MapQuest when I need to know where to go out of State. Although it is slow to surf, so don't expect any DSL speeds here. 3. It has numerous features as Java games and applications that you can add according to your needs. 4. It has an expandable external memory card, which I already added 128MB to hold the data for the built-in camera, video and sound recorder. 5. Because it is built on the Symbian platform that supports Java, it is virtually expandable. The problem is that there are tons of features in the phone that are only half-baked cool or fucntional ideas. There are lots of kinks to work out and the size and bulkiness of this phone is horrendous. With this latest Symbian OS, built into latest phones, it's disappointing. Maybe in the future, they can improve on the interface. Until then I'm going back to the latest Nokia phones that do not have the Symbian. My advice is to pass on this phone and continue using your existing Nokia phone. Wait until the kinks are worked out and invest in the next phone to come out next year.
Rating: Summary: Another Great Nokia Phone!!! Review: I bought two of these phones - one for my wife and one for me. I signed up for the T-Mobile 1K + Nights and Weekends. First of all T-Mobile's people at customer service were great even the people who helped me port my old number over.
The Phone is great!!! I found the signal and sound quality to be great, however, I found the menus to be a little counter-intuitive. Not as bad as Motorola, but not typical Nokia. The phone fits the hand well and works well in noisy areas. It uses the same charger that I used for for 252 back in 1998!!!
Rating: Summary: Nokia 6600 User Review: I have am UK resident and I have this cell phone. I love it. It might be a poor man's PDA but I wanted a I wanted half and half not one of each. It is annoying that the MMC Card is under the battery, but at least it is safer there, than say slid into the side. Battery life is low as well, but I didn't want a brick to make calls from, this is 2004, not 1984! Bluetooth seems cool too. I noted that a user said there wasn't an autolock feature: there is. Go to Settings>Security>Autolock Period>enter the number of minutes you want before it locks and then click "OK" then enter the phone's security code i.e 12345 (Nokia standard, I'd change it). When it goes into standby the phone will lock. Enter the code and et voila it is unlocked. I would also lock the phone if you add another SIM card, the phone should be unusable then. I love the fact you can add web browsers etc to this phone and also load photos via IR and the Kodak Picture Center(available for Nokia 7650/3650) This cellular telephone is worth 5 stars and the 30GBP line rental.
Rating: Summary: One great phone!!!! Review: I use a Nokia 6600, it has a great color TFT display and camera equipped with zoom, which complement a built-in video recorder with audio and a RealOne player for playback and streaming of 3GPP-compatible and RealMedia video clips.
Multimedia functions are enhanced by multi-slide MMS messages and a Gallery for organizing digital content captured or downloaded with the phone.
So, do I recommend the 6600? Yes, certainly. But if you are in the market for a new business capable phone, and don't want to deal with a stylus equipped PDA like device such as the P900, then the 6600 will probably suit you just fine.
The Nokia 6600 is a decent extension of the smartphone line. The phone has such advantages as the excellent keypad and display, long rundown time and a good software suite. Among its weak points is the MMC slot location and a bit vague design. In short, the Nokia 6600 is an evolution but not a revolution.
Rating: Summary: Great phone bad battery life Review: I've had this beauty for nearly 2 months now and I truely love it. The only disappointment so far has been battery life. Mine generally requires a charege every 48 hours or so and I don't really talk on it that much.
Why is this phone so great? Simple. It has it all. This is the first phone I know of that has the large bright screen, infrared, bluetooth, USB connector and a speakerphone.
If you are looking for an upgrade, this is definitely the phone for you.
Rating: Summary: Not that great Review: Nokia had good reputation but this phone brought it down. The battery doesn't stay as mentioned in specification. The Camera is not that great.
Rating: Summary: One of the best phones I've owned Review: Pros:
- Nokia Series 60 OS - Intuitive and stable - allows you to install 3rd party applications, ring tones, and themes
- Large screen
- Ability to add up to 1GB of memory, although the 32MB Secure Digital this comes with will store quite a bit
- The ability to customize every aspect of your phone
- Audio quality and speakerphone are excellent
- Battery life is great considering all of the features
- Works great with iSync on my Mac PowerBook G4 (OS 10.3.7)
- Bluetooth
Cons
- Buttons are small - send/end buttons take some getting used to
- Slow power on (though you shouldn't need to power off too often)
Rating: Summary: featurefan Review: Pros 1. Big Display 2. Most of the functions available...(I can write 10+ points on this, but I am telling in one line) 3. Built in Antenna helps a lot for signal strength 4. Can store around 400 photos Cons 1. Little slow... means when any key is pushed, you can feel the time taking to come up 2. Most of the ring tones given by Nokia are low in volume, so chances of missing calls is more (Best way is to keep the vibration on) 3. When video is used, battery is getting discharged very fast 4. Its little big (Small Soap Box), but better than my previous Nokia. Just a normal user can buy without even thinking.... If u are looking to use video frequently, I don't think this phone is matured enough, b'coz of battery life....
Rating: Summary: Nice Phone, Great Features Review: Sure, it is a relatively bulky, but it is really packed with many great features. I own this phone for about 6 months now, I have used the following features: bluetooth connection to laptop and desktop for sync contacts and calendars with Outlook, transfer files (movies, songs), I have many movies on it now with a 512MB memory card that it takes. Bought a bluetooth headset and it works like a wonder. Handsfree future is good, but not too exciting. Camera is nice, and video recording for some reason is only limited to 9 seconds.
Only thing I don't like about it is slow in changing apps, boot up, and sometime it has problem connect thru bluetooth.
