Advantages: Small(ish), Stylish, competant phone

Disadvantages: Size not upto the 8210

The Nokia range of phones are phenomenally successful and you can see why. Currently owning an 8210, I was forced to uprade, and it was from this model
Before I had my 8210, I was also fortunate enough to own the Nokia 3310, until I had it stolen, and thus needed a replacement, so naturally I went for another Nokia phone!
Not the smallest in the range of Nokia phones, this still offers a lot in the way of size and functionality, and also has a longer battery life then my current 8210, although this is much to do with the extra size and the larger battery that can be fitted as a result. With 35 (I think there was 35) average ring tones, none of which are that original or impressive, and seven (yep, 7) vacant slots for the composition on the owner to create or download their own tunes, there is more then enough variety in terms of individual ring tones, and the 7 spaces are definitely required, as the current craze of graphics logo and ring tones shows no signs of stopping.

One of the better features that this phone also features is the vibration facility. Not only can it vibrate when you need to discretely receive a phone call, but it will also offer a ?force feedback? type facility when playing one of the four games equipped on the phone. Obviously this putys a heft train on the battery, but what the hell ? its great fun!

Add to the above the option to change covers and all other unique features that Nokia phones offer, and you can see why this phone is so widely regarded as one of the best. In my opinion, its not quite the match for the 8210, but is very close, and offers something for the phone owner who wants everything. If six if the important factor, then maybe this phone is not for you, but otherwise there aren?t too many bad points I can think of with this phone?Its stylish, very affordable (another positive of the 8210) but the charges the networks put on this phone will price it out of many peoples reach. Contact is the viable opt
ion on this phone, and if you can afford to go the contract way, this phone as about as good as any other to have?
