Advantages: many features

Disadvantages: big and quite slow

The Nokia 6210 is a decent enough phone, with some useful features. However, it has a fair few disadvantages too.
Firstly, it is quite big in modern phone standards, altough it is fairly lightweight and thin. The first thing I noticed a about this phone when I first recieved it as an upgrade from Vodafone, is that it took about 20 seconds to switch on! Also, the colour didn't appeal to me much, and the menu is different from all other Nokia phones. The phone also lacks Nokias exellent 'Navi-key' as featured on the 3210, which easily guides the user through the menus. The phone also regulary freezes when the games feature is being used, which I have not noticed in any other Nokia phones. The voice activated dialling function does not always work either, and the battery life is not excellent.
However, having said that, the 6210 does boast a very fast wap browser, and an infra-red port. It also has the very popular 'snake 2' feature, and a very powerful vibrate function.
The 6210 has excellent features, however these features are not brought to their full potential through the phones interface.
