One of my relative got this phone recently.
Just wanted to let everyone know : THE QUALITY OF THE AUDIO PLAYER IS PATHETIC. Therefore, if you're looking for a phone that you can use as an mp3 player, buy another model.
Also, the quality of the pictures is allright but not great.

tarak dave:
you can use anniversary for birthday reminder.
it will still remind you annualy even though, it doesn't ask for birth year.
if you're still not sure, do a little test.
make a birthday reminder for today.
then "go to date", change the year to 2006 or whatever year you prefer.
there you'll see the reminder is repeated.

I have a 6230i pretty good..Samsung D500 is great But no more than 96mb memory. Sony K750i is good if u wait a month while they sort out the firmware.All the nokia Symbian fones have some sort od downside..Its really hard to choose a good phone if you dont try it for a week or so, i reckon you need at least a week to decide whether a fone is good for you, cos written details are not good enough, you gotta try it yourself....Bye

hey guys,
i'm new to this and i have a 3230 but the thing is on the phone is that it has a shared memory feature and this does not allow you to change your messages onto the MMC(128mb) so i cant transfer an mp3 file. other than that the phone is pretty good althoght the sound from the mp3's aren't upto the mark.

After reviewing gsm arena's every single review.. and badmouthing about this phoe, i decided to buy it, why, b/c its most cheap of all other fone.. my verdict !! BEST PHONE OF THE YEAR!!! every thing is so cool! Truth is that i can showoff with it!! One very minor con is the memory . 32MB is enough , but wen u come to know that the size of a pic cud easily touch 450 kb ! then yes it is small( pics taken from 6600 ranged from 20 to 35 kb only, also tells the different of the quality of the pic) .....BUY IT !!!

Recently one of my pal bought a 3230 kit, and it seems that the key-pad arrangement is not that comfortable. Also, the 'inbox' can't be moved to the MMC card. This will restrict the size of the file falling via bluetooth to the free-space in phone memory. One great this abt this model is the camera.

This phone is crap,
Dust doesnt stop from going on the LCD. DROVE ME CRAZY!!!!
Applications hang and freeze..
Sound quality is no good..
Buttons are hard to press around the joystick and the joystick gets hard to move after a while...Back cover is a pain to take off..Good features, but whats the use when the fone is falling apart...
Trust me i know i traded mine for a 6230i, i wish i had bought the 6230i from the start..Keep away from 3230 unless u want to go crazy..

U get sound only in one earphone?? How come?? I get sound coming out both side. The only thing is it's MONO, i.e. same thing coming out from both side. Better check if u got a defective set oh.

Jason:
Towards your enquiry, there are 3 ways to do it.
1. Via a compatible Bluetooth adapter
2. Via a IRDA (Infra-Red/Ray)
3. Via a Nokia Connectivity Cable DKU-2

To your dismay as well - i have no problem listening to both earpiece for mp3s / song files store in the phone - both-sides plays normally instead there is a difference due to its a MONO player.

To your dismay: it doesn't lags when storing photos - because you are saving it as a mpix photo instead of a vga 1 - if you are really keen are having a fast save - then tune down your camera quality to a vga 1 - everything will store fast as etc.

Apart from the design, I dun really like this phone, so much lagging, the worse thing is when takin a pic, it delays for a few second after pressing the button to capture, so what u see on the screen is not exactly what u get. SIGH, even on the phone it takes ages to load.
