Nokia 6233 > Reviews (31)

AFTER HAVING A FLIP PHONE FOR AS LONG AS I REMEMBER, I DECIDED TO TRY A REGULAR 'FLAT' PHONE.
WHAT APPEALED TO ME WAS THE CHROME EDGING AND SLEEK DESIGN OF THE 6233.IT LOOKS QUITE POSH AND OFFICY. I WAS COMPARING THE NOKIA TO THE NEW SONY ERICCSON BUT WAS DISAPPOINTED WITH THE APPEARANCE OF THE SONY IN THAT THE COLOUR HAD ALREADY RUBBED OF THE NAVIGATION KEY AND CORNERS OF THE PHONE. WHAT WILL IT LOOK LIKE IN A YEAR OF BASHING AROUND IN MY VERY ROOMY HANDBAG?? THUS, NOKIA IT WAS.

THE MENU NAVIGATION IS VERY STRAIGHT FORWARD-IT SEEMS LIKE ALL NOKIAS FOLLOW THE SAME MENU LAYOUTS-WHICH MAKES IT EASIER TO FIND YOUR WAY AROUND THE FIRST TIME. MINE CAME WITH A MAINS ADAPTER, EARPHONES AND CD FOR PC INSTALLATION.

THE SOUND ON THE SPEAKERS ARE AMAZING CONSIDERING THAT IT IS ONLY A PHONE! THERE ARE 2 SPEAKERS WHICH GIVE STEREO SOUND AND YOU ARE EVEN ABLE TO PLAY WITH EQUILISING EFFECT ON THE MUSIC PLAYER SUCH AS JAZZ, CLASSIC, BASS, ETC.. THE SOUND WITH THE EARPHONES ARE GOOD AS WELL. IT FOUND RADIO STATIONS EASY ENOUGH.

THE PHONE ALSO FEATURES A 2 MP DIGITAL CAMERA. THOUGH I HAVE SEEN BETTER QUALITY PHOTOS ON A SONY ERICCSON, I HAVE TO SAY. STILL, IT'S BETTER THAN MOST. IT HAS A HANDY FEATURE WHERE YOU CAN USE THE PHONE LIKE A CAMERA I.E. ON IT'S SIDE WITH A HANDY 'SHOOT' AND SEPERATE ZOOM BUTTONS. YOU CAN ALSO TAKE PICS IN SEPIA, B&W,ETC. VERY HANDY. YOU ARE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD ALL PHOTOS VIA A SEPERATE USB CABLE-I DON'T PERSONALLY HAVE ONE- ONTO YOUR PC.

I DO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE KEYS AS THEY ARE A BIT ON THE SMALL SIDE. YOU TEND TO HIT OTHER KEYS WHEN TEXTING.

FOR ME, THIS IS JUST A STANDARD MOBILE PHONE-NOTHING BRILLIANT OR NEW BUT PRACTICAL. IF YOU ARE AFTER A GOOD WORKER, THIS IS THE ONE TO GET.
