Nokia 6600 review

Advantages: Huge list of features
Disadvantages: Not the best battery life, not the smallest phone

...it to download anything to the phone such as ringtones, pictures, videos, themes, applications, games and much more, most of which can be found for free on the internet. This is much better than paying silly prices by purchasing things slowly over GPRS. The nokia 6600 PC suite even allows you to convert MP3 files into realtones which sound very good before transfering them to the phone to set as a ring tone. This is a feature i think is very clever. Though the phone doesn't support MP3 playback as standard, you can download software to make it do this if you so wish, though i personally would rather use my ipod or psp and a good pair of headphones. The infra-red connection on this phone is also very good, though much slower and you have to line the ports up to make it work. It seems to work about 20cm away from the other device. The best...

Review of Nokia 6600

Nokia 6600 - The new flagship phone.

Advantages: Wide range of features. Conventional design, wide support software-wise
Disadvantages: Bulky, improvements only cosmetic

...Hi, thanks for taking the time to read this review. Feel free to leave your ratings or comments! INTRODUCTIONS Nokia are a company in transition. Gone were the days when solid, sleek phones such as the Nokia 8210 and 8310 were released. A new design team released new experimental designs; it?s no co-incidence that Nokia?s relative market share has decreased, with the public favouring the ?silver flip-phone?; whose popularity has grown in abundance. The Nokia 6600 brings a return to conventionalism, a standard keypad layout and look means this will appeal to the mass-market. It?s the follow-up to the Nokia 3650 handset; a device which was popular but it?s look put many off. As a side note, Nokia have really promoted this handset aggressively. Prime-time advertising has been used, a tactic which is uncommon for Nokia. But as...

Nokia 6600, ( the best has been beaten.) Damn !

Advantages: Cool design, big and beautiful, and it's a phone as well !
Disadvantages: None yet !!!

...into the Orange shop, to have a look and see what was on offer.......................I scanned the racks , and spotted the 6600.........mmmmmm nice and big, nice shape, good weight to it, ( must be good quality ! ). Said to the salesman ...... I'll have that one please. Signed the contract , for .....another year, and off I went. I must admit I was a bit worried about operating the thing as it is packed with so many fetures, but , to my suprise, I find the operation instinctive. If you've owned Nokia's before, you'll have no trouble with this one. I would say that this one is easier than the older models, especially with the central ' navi button ' which eases you around the main functions. Up down, left,right, and press to click on the chosen icon. The main menu is acessed by pressing the blue under the main green send button. This...

Nokia 6600 - Is it for you?

Advantages: Small, Advanced, Light weight
Disadvantages: Crashes, Video Length (9secs)

...I purchased the Nokia 6600 in mid February 2004 from 02 on contract. I chose the phone as I had read many good reviews and enjoyed the large range of features. Since I have bought the phone I have had few problems, but nothing worth writing about although I have heard of many 6600's with software faults. A friend of mine is now on his 3rd 6600 due to these. Features: Colour Screen - The colour screen is absolutely superb! A lot of detail can be seen and the colours are very vibrant. I cannot praise the screen enough! No complaints there. Speakers - The speakers on the Nokia 6600 are brilliant. You can get some really superb quality audio and they can be quite loud indeed. The quality of the speakers means you can add music to the phone and play to your heart's content! 10/10 Camera - The camera is overall very good...

Nokia Delights Featuring the Superb 6600

Advantages: 65536 Colour Display Camera/Video Mobile Phone, Bluetooth, Lots of features
Disadvantages: Buttons can be an annoyance, Takes a while to get used to if you have come from a previous nokia

...Introduction to the Nokia 6600- Here we have the Nokia 6600 mobile phone with integrated digital camera which can capture images up to 640x480 resolution and display them nicely on its 65536 colour screen. This phone is a very smart/attractive mobile. It can feel like a fashion accessory especially when people say to me "cool phone what features does it have?". Its a great piece of kit that fits nicely in your pocket or bag. You will undoubtedly enjoy the neverending features of the 6600 with the software additions that you can purchase. The phone has all the regular nokia features with lots more additions! Size/outer features- It does feel slightly bulkier if you have previously been used to smaller mobiles, although the size of the phone makes up for the features and software it incorporates. It has a nice easy feel to it...

My 6600

Advantages: So many features
Disadvantages: not a phone for someone who just wants to make calls.

...After having this phone since January I thought I'd best give it the credit it deserves and write a review on it. This is my second nokia phone so if you have already been using a nokia phone you will find using this phone easy as the menu's are very similar. This phone is just like a mini PDA. the menu has been totally redesigned to look like a pda with all the menu options in a grid format with little icons to represent the menu, for example there is a little envelope for messaging. There are so many features on this phone. Messaging --------------- This phone is capable of text messaging, multi media messaging and email as well. The messaging feature is really easy to work and the screen when your writing a text message looks like a notepad with lines on it. Instead of selecting who you want to sent the message to after...

Review of Nokia 6600

Nokia 6600 Smartphone...

Advantages: Screen, User Interface, Operating System, Bluetooth, Camera, Ringtones, SD Card,
Disadvantages: It's a bit fat - but then - who isn't?

...My two favourite pieces of technology have just had a race. A race, infact, to see who can boot up first. The first competitor is my fairly new HP Presario X1000 15 inch notebook, running a trimmed down version of XP home on a pretty quick 60 gig defragged and half full hard disk (plugged in.) Second up on the blocks is my VERY new Nokia 6600 mobile phone. The whistle blows, and they?re off.... It?s a draw!!! 36 seconds till I simultaneously hear the polyphonic dada da de daaa from the phone and the chimes of the PC. Hang on? THIRTY SIX seconds to turn a phone on!!! Let?s hope your house isn?t burning down. My ex got turned on quicker than that! (She was a bit plump too?) Once this bit of kit?s turned on, it stays ready for action for a good few days depending on usage. The first thing you?ll notice is the beautiful long screen...

Brick vs 6600

Advantages: Camera, good features, battery life
Disadvantages: Expensive, rather large

...Yes, another review on a mobile?I?m getting slightly predictable I feel! My friend recently got this mobile but upgrading his contract handset, and basically I stole it for a day?or so :P Being a Motorola gal, this phone was practically foreign to me, so here?s the idiots guide to the Nokia 6600?enjoy! On immediate ?blagging? I noticed how amazingly huge this phone is! (108.6 x 58.2 x 23.7mm) Lately all the mobile phone designers have been going for the ?smaller is better? look, yet this defies everything! It?s like a brick?something from space possibly. I was pleasantly surprised at its weight though, being 122g, I thought a brick, *sorry*, phone of its size to be heavier. However, I wasn?t going to let these first impressions dictate this phones overall performance?so I proceed! The first thing which struck me as being...
