The Classic Nokia 2600

Advantages: Slim, Cute and Cheap
Disadvantages: Battery backup unsatisfactory

...After Nokia released the models 2760 and 2630 is the Nokia 2600 classic. These models are an attempt to capture the market with features like blue tooth , video,GPRS and mp3 support and is also on the lower price range. The 2600 classic is the newer and more modified version of the earlier 2600. This version has more facilities and functions and is much slimmer. It has got quite an attractive look with an extra panel that comes along with the pack, which I think is great. The LCD is bigger than the previous one and comes along with a headset that features an FM radio too. The battery is however unsatisfactory. You need to charge up to two times a day if you listen to music or play games. It doesn't have a music player but can play mp3 and amr formats. It has only 10 MB inbuilt memory and doesn't have expandable memory. You can...

Nokia 2600, a phone that is just a phone

Advantages: Price, Easy to Use, Looks Sophisticated
Disadvantages: None, considering the price

...Nokia 2600 - I am prone to dropping my mobile phone. I'm not usually that clumsy, I just can't seem to look after my phones. The one I had before this Nokia 2600 was also a nokia. My boyfriend had given me his old one as he is on a contract and got an upgrade. The old one had a camera, colour screen, radio etc etc. When I eventually broke that one too I asked myself what I actually needed in a phone, and was it worth spending a small fortune on a load of features I was never going to use. The Nokia 2600 isn't a camera, a radio, an MP3 or video player, it is simply a phone, but what a great phone. It makes phone calls and allows you to text. What more could you want. Nokia is a brand I know well and a company that I can trust. Their phones are durable (unless continually dropped) and reliable. I decided to stick with Nokia. I went...

Nokias most recent attack on i-phone succes or failure

Advantages: memory
Disadvantages: touchscreen

...as a owner and user of the nokia n97 i can say i am overall very happy with the improvements that nokia have made on previous models i.e N96 and N95. Lets face it all of us who went from owning an N95 to what nokia seem to believe was a better model (N96) were extremely dissapointed as although looking good on paper the N96 failed to meet the standards of its pre- deccesor but i am glad to say nokia have redeemed themselves on the launch of the N97. There have been many improvements made on previous models i.e the processor is alot faster and the slow transitions between menus has been completely iradicated due to the massive 32Gb memory which can still be increased to a huge 48GB by the handy memory slot tucked away under the rear cover of the phone. Another improvement on previous models is the slider mechanism after a few minor issues...

A Model Book

Advantages: Good story, good twists, entertaining
Disadvantages: Poppy did whinge a LOT

...I'm forever browsing Amazon for the latest book releases to try to find something new that catches my eye, and I've been lucky lately because there has been quite an influx on new books on to the market this summer! As usual, I've been keeping my local library in business lol, and the latest one I've taken out is "The Model Wife" by an author I've not read before, Julia Llewellyn. It sounded good, and I looked forward to reading it, so here's the review. Poppy Norton is a bit of a cliché, even she admits it. She was unlucky in love until she met News Presenter, father of 3 Luke Norton. The two begin a relationship on the sly, and accidentally Poppy falls pregnant. Luke decides to leave his wife Hannah to set up home with Poppy but soon finds out life with a young model and their newborn daughter doesn't quite match up to his twenty...

Nokia N97 - 'The new iPhone'

Advantages: 32gb Internal Memory, Nice Looking, Full QWERTY Keyboard, 5 MP Camera
Disadvantages: A Little Bulky, Price, Small Processer Makes The Phone Slow

... Intro Being the previous owner of a Sony Ericsson w850 for over 2 years, I decided that it was time for a mobile phone upgrade. I had a few different phones in mind, the Apple iPhone, Nokia N97, Nokia 5800 Xpress Music and the HTC Touch Pro, in the end I chose to buy the new Nokia N-Series phone. It was a clear choice over the iPhone because of the price, also you do not have to buy the phone AND pay a monthly contract fee with the N97. Buying The Phone After choosing the phone I decided that I wanted to switch to contract instead of pay as you go. At the time the phone was only available on the Vodafone and Orange networks, but I believe that you can get it on most major networks now. I had previously been with Orange and wasn't too impressed with their service, so I chose Vodafone, they also had better deals for the N97...

Nokia 8600 Luna Luxury Flagship Model

Advantages: Great Finish, A Joy to Use, Great Features
Disadvantages: Battery life could be better,Could be lighter

...This is the latest phone i've bought from Nokia as i tend to like their 8xxx series and this was no exception. It hasn't been out for very long and the price wasn't too expensive so i decided to buy it sim free from the net. I have owned the Nokia 8800 which was a nice phone but the battery life and the camera were both no very good so i sold that on. I then got the Nokia 8800 Sirocco which was a good phone but i got slightly bored with it and decided to sell that on too for a profit(the battery still wasn't great either). However,when i received it i was pleasently surprised, the phone comes in a very presentable box like the 8800 and 8800 sirocco but there you get more accessories with it. In the box you receive the phone,2 manuals,carry pouch,charger,cd,cleaning cloth,usb cable,earphones for the radio and a small keychain...

MY MOBILE IS JUST A PHONE

Advantages: Logical Nokia Menu System, It's a mobile phone - no more, no less!
Disadvantages: Very few in my opinion

...and that was the Nokia 2600, a basic phone with basic functions that I could have free as an upgrade providing I agreed to a further 18 month contract with them on the same tariff. Given that they had agreed to provide the handset for free and that I?ve been a customer for over six years I accepted the deal. THE PHONE ITSELF In keeping with all Nokia models, the 2600 uses the logical Nokia menu system that consists of a series of key headings, which are fairly self explanatory. Messages Contacts (Phone Book) Call Register Settings Alarm Clock Reminders Games Extras Under each menu heading there is a series of sub headings which I won?t go into great detail about as these are pretty standard, e.g. add and searching for Contacts, setting ring tones and wallpapers, etc. Hopefully you can see that you are not going to get too...

Review of Nokia 2600

It does what it says on the tin, takes calls

Advantages: long battery life, easy to use Nokia features, compact, lightweight
Disadvantages: no built-in camera, poor range of colours, no real ringtones

...I have only ever ventured away from Nokia phones once in my relatively short experience of owning mobile phones. I started with the brick like 5110, moved onto the short and dinky 8310, then the flashy and stylish 3100 and at the end of 2004 I took delivery of Plain Jane Super brain, the 2600, which has recently been consigned to the kitchen draw following a further upgrade. When I originally took delivery of the 2600 it had only just been released by Nokia and despite its short foray into the market it didn't cost me a penny to upgrade thanks to my contract with Vodafone. If you wanted to buy this phone now, it is still available second hand on various auction websites with prices ranging from £20-£80. Alternatively, Carphone Warehouse do stock these for the princely sum of £89.99 to buy outright. The actual price is significantly...

Review - The Nokia N97 vs The iPhone 3GS

Advantages: Good Looking, Durable, Huge Memory, Very Very Good QWERTY keyboard
Disadvantages: Tiny processor leading to lag and application crashes

... The Nokia N97 Nokia have announced the follow up to their 5800 XpressMusic touchscreen phone. The Nokia N97, which utilises a 3.5 inch touchscreen and slide out QUERTY keyboard. Appearance The overall design of the N97 is not at all unique, looking like the lovechild of a Google G1 and Apple iPhone, comparisons have also been drawn to the AT&T Tilt, and rightly so. Despite Nokia's lack of imagination the N97 is a nice looking thing, apart from a small button in the bottom left corner, the 3.5 inch touchscreen dominates and looks sleek and well designed. When the QUERTY keyboard is slid out the screen sits at an angle, looking remarkably like the HTC TyTN. The N97 is both larger and thicker than the iPhone, which isn't exactly inconspicuous itself, this makes the N97 feel a little too large, especially...
