Nokia 6260 - user opinions and reviews

Owen,
This is... business and marketing... they don't give you everything... look at 6600, it's the BEST Nokia Symbian phone when it's launched... but no RADIO? it's almost a COMPLETE phone at that time... and it's MONO speaker...
As for 6260 camera quality, I can't say much because of it's price... It's very cheap for a Symbian phone (except NGAGE), I would say the 2nd Cheapest after NGAGE looking at it's function and features...
Though, I hope they would come out with a "i" version, 6260i with 1MP above... Is there any request at Nokia? LoL

Rahul,
This phone has plastic feel? LoL, most Nokia Symbian phone is plastic, 6260 is also made of plastic (it only LOOKS like METAL, so you can have METAL feel)... Only drawback is the plastic is very thin type... but what you get is slimmer and more profesional look phone...
Anyway, IMO, THIS phone is the SECOND most complete NOKIA and BEST Symbian phone after 6600... It's almost complete except that:
1. MONO SPEAKER
2. LOW QUALITY CAMERA (Flip and TWIST function, makes it great for taking pictures and videos, but WHY low quality camera?)
3. NO FRONT DISPLAY
Anyway, if the camera quality is 1MP above, this phone will be very expensive,... imagine 7610, lack of a few feature (even 6600 is better), cost more than 6260, just because of it's 1MP Camera...
Well, just hope they can launch a 6260i with 1MP Camera at least...

shin,
Full version, and it's working fine... so, you might need to check for other version...
The working version is Version 2...

Devilhatred,
MCE error is your SMS function, if you have this error, RESTART your phone, else you would have problem recieving or sending SMS...
If after RESTART this error appear again, repeat the procedure again, if it occur again, you might wanna check what software you've installed cause the problem... else, you should send your phone for repair OR you can format your phone...
This error is very common in other Nokia Symbian phone and another error is "App Closed Main"...
If you feel your phone is unstable, you might need to update to a new firmware (if yours is old that is), cause the new firmware is considered very stable compared to other Nokia Symbian phone...

unname,
It's hard to say whether always turn will make the screen break... But, I'm sure since this phone is MADE with such function, it SHOULD able to handle a lot of twisting and flipping...
BUT, it also depends on thew user, how you use it... If you twist it roughly, then nobody can guarantee it will NOT break, right? So, like I said before, this is a very fragile phone, HANDLE WITH CARE...

I just cant imagine why they didnt installed same chipset for sound in 6260 and 3300. almost everything that im looking for in a cellphone is in 6260 (except for the MP3 quality and megapixel cam)
=P

Arash,
What do you mean by the display so little? The screen I think is slightly bigger than 7610 and also much clearer...
The display break? Well, not just the display, the whole phone will break if you drop it... it's very fragile, if you want to buy it, you must really take care of it... NOT recommended for rough people... very suitable for lady users, or profesionals...

Matt,
Ok, to be more precise, both speakers must not be on the same channel... But if it's a speaker, obviously it wouldn't be on the same channel right?
As for the STEREO headset, it's confirm STEREO, as it's very clear from the sound quality and also the fact the many reviews mention that RADIO is STEREO and MP3 is MONO, which in fact, is simply because of the STEREO headset...
As for the quality of music/sound Owen is looking for, perhaps it has to do with the soundcard or chipset... 3300 is a Music Player, probably it's using a better soundcard or chipset...

Hi, all.
Owen, stereo does *NOT* just mean that two speakers are available... they must be able to independently play, even if two completely different things come out to each ear [such as the right-to-left affect that Andy mentioned].
Anyway, I know the different between 850Mhz and 900Mhz, I am just wondering if anybody has actually seen an 850Mhz 6260... I want one, and can't find one for sale anywhere! Only 900!

Hi,is the nokia 6260 display so little?? does that display break soon? plz some 1 help me (sorry if i cant write english well :D )

Owen,
Yes, this site review that the RADIO is stereo and the MP3 is MONO, but I've posted twice about this... The review is not a complete or didn't they check properly... Why is the Radio STEREO?
STEREO means dual channel, or simply put, 2 speakers, which is why the headset is called STEREO HEADSET. The radio is STEREO quality because.... well,... you're hearing using the STEREO headset... Try hearing without the headset (LOUDSPEAKER and see the difference in quality...), OR, use a MONO headset (ONE EAR PHONE)...
Anyway, STEREO quality is affected by the SPEAKERS not the soundcard or chipset, so IF the RADIO is STEREO and the MP3 is MONO, is NOKIA that stupid to put 2 different speaker? LoL...
Even for my 6600, I've bought the STEREO headset just to hear STEREO quality MP3... But the sound quality, I think it's affected by the soundcard or chipset,... like for Sony Ericson phones which support higher quality of tones, etc...
As for the left to right and right to left effect, I'm not sure, need to try it out, first... Will let you know, not sure what actually affect those...
But, another good point about 6260 is the support for MP3 Ringtones... That's very nice, saves a lot of MMC space and preserve the quality and loudness... Plus, it's built-in REAL Player is the best I've seen so far...

Hey Andy214
this site explains that Radio is Stereo and MP3 is mono which is a hardware platform limitation.

Yo Andy214!
Yup! pretty aware 'bout batteries. its just that new batteries needs to be completely discharged and fully recharge if its new, then after that you can recharge it even if its not low yet (that's what i've observed).
for MP3 playback using headset... are you sure its stereo?? hmmm... the quality of the headset sound compared to the loudspeaker is much better, i cant deny that. but using the headset still sounds not stereo. anyway, ill check nokia stores if there's another headset model and maybe i can test it before buying. because my friend's Nokia 3300 and Sony-Ericsson K700i sounds better using the exact same MP3 file. say you're playing an upbeat or dance song with an effect that the voice travels from left to right to left earphones, you can hear that effect with Nokia 3300 and Sony-Ericsson K700i. but with Nokia 6260, the effect doesnt travel from left to right to left earphones but you just hear them on both sides of the earphones at the same time. you get what i mean?.... hehehe oh well...
yeah i guess it was blessing in disguise when i bought this 6260. i was at the panasonic shop and ready to purchase that X700 then he said it's out of stock. i was like "what? you had one yesterday right?".... so i decided to look around and Nokia, Motorola, Siemens, Palm and Sony-Ericsson shops were just right in front of it so i decided to check phones with same value and i bought this 6260 on the spot (well i was really planning to buy a new phone that day, not just an impulse or something).
