6290 is way better than N76.

6290
+ price (at least 100e difference to N76)
+ sturdy build, easy-to-use buttons
+ good sound quality
+ quick symbian OS
+ all same features as in N76 basically
- looks
- camera (pretty useless except for sending pictures to friends)

N76
+ looks (i admit it is a trendy phone)
+ slightly better file support than 6290
- price
- 3.5mm jack in the way, can't open phone when earphones are plugged in
- chrome peels off after few weeks of use
- button panel is flat, hard to use
- battery life isn't up to the standard
- a multimedia phone like this SHOULD have better speakers
- again, a multimedia phone as well marketed as the N76 SHOULD boast a better camera

If you think about it, if you want the functions of N76, you're better off with a 6290. If you want a high-tech phone, you're better off with N95 anyway.

Wow! This is a fantastic fone. I have had so many Nokia fones, but this one beats all the others. It is very quick when responding to the buttons, more than the Nokia E65. I did hesitate when I discovered this was a symbian fone, but it's just fantastic. Lots of memory, keypad brilliant.

GSMArena's specs of this phone is WRONG. It doesn't use Pop-port anymore. It uses microUSB like all the other new Nokia phones

I have had this phone for a month now.And I must say Im surprised of the performance.Swift in menu,no problems what so ever.I have had it up and running for 8 days now ( 12 hours a day, of at night.4-5 sms
5 min of talk a day,checking yahoo mail once a day via mini opera(Stockholm network),some snaps and videos and browsing with my Y-browser( a must if you ask me, as well as Divx 0.89)On thing though,You cant switch of the sound for the video cam,there is a software around for the snapper but not for the video(cCam).Its A very god pice, I have had E61,W810,6233 before and this one out perform them all in every aspect.The music player, the speakers, the shortcuts, the software MMMMMMMM.

Hi y'all. I need to know if the sound from the external speakers of the 6290 is better than that of the N76. And I also need to know the same about the earphones. Thanks
