Review: The Best Nokia from the previous generation, and at a brilliant price - I had previously used the Nokia 6230, but was converted to this step up model, 6230i, after I realised that it was actually cheaper than my original. And now, looking at it, I have no doubt in my mind that it beats Nokia's current and past phones. So, what's the difference between this and the original firstly? Well, the screen has a better resolution - in other words, its slightly bigger (the only change in terms of the phone shape) and has alot, lot more detail - edges are smooth, text is crisp, and the colours are vivid. This leads onto the many other improvements which tie in, like better use of applications, if your a gaming person for example, you'll be delighted that 3-D games are available with excellent sprites. The whole phone has generally had a make-over. Gone are the boring white backgrounds, in comes the 'Theme' section, where the default one is already good enough, with a blue swirly pattern. The icons are alot clearer, as is just about everything! The camera is also a step-up, being a 1.3 megapixel compared to the 6230's VGA camera. This makes a huge difference, and with the better screen combined, you can actually take photo quality pictures for a reason - not just for when your bored! Its' particularly handy if you have a lover at heart, and what that non-grainy photo of them on your phone! The only disappointment I do see, with regards to no update, is the video. I would have expected their to be a better quality video function, but sadly, the blocky-looking quality is present. On the phone itself it looks good, but upload it onto a computer, and it degrades. I would also agree with other people by saying that the sound is alot better quality too, which is just as well their is a much cleaner/better looking music player present! It's ideal if your bored or want to socialise, and the quality is good enough, the the equalizer settings make absolutely no difference. mp3 and AAC files can be played, among a few other lower quality ones, which is why you'll need a memory card - a 32mb one is present, but I recommended a much bigger one! (MMC memory cards only again!) For those who never owned the original 6230, and feel that the above hasn't persuaded them enough, this phone is just perfect. Unfortunately, Nokia have gone downhill over the past year 2 - possibly due to making 'gadgets' rather than phones, but this is likely to be one of the last phones they produced that doesn't feel like a mini computer. Its small, feels solid, has a good weight, and the buttons feel like they were just made for texting. Mind have remained pretty silent - ideal for texting at night! Other people, both on desertcart reviews and in person, have said that they have had problems with the firmware (a fancy name for the phones software). Just to clear this up, you will only have these 'bugs' if your phone contains an old version of the firmware. You can view your phones version number by simply pressing *#0000#. I've got v3.80 which is believe is the latest, but problems apparently occur with 3.40 or below, so update it whenever you get a chance through the Nokia website. I don't think their much else to say. This is a simply to use phone, its crisp, colourful, fun, and looks incredibly smart. It's amazing what a difference a little 'i' can make! Review: My second purchase made and another great phone in excellent condition - This is my second purchase with this seller, this time with the Nokia 6230i. Another great example of a classic phone with very good features. Again, the quality of the mobile from this seller is excellent, like new and works very well for its age. Delivered promptly on time, with very secure packaging. No issues at all. Very happy with the phone. A good range of classic mobiles all at reasonable prices. Wiil definitely be buying again. Already got my eye on a few other Nokia mobiles from back in the day, to add to my collection. Thank you so much. ## Features - Bullet 1 - Bullet 2 - Bullet 3 - Bullet 4 - Bullet 5 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000FHA87S | | Best Sellers Rank | 94,711 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 3,612 in SIM-Free & Unlocked Mobile Phones | | Guaranteed software updates until | unknown | | Item model number | 6230i | | Manufacturer | Nokia | | Package Dimensions | 18.8 x 14 x 7.8 cm; 421.85 g | ## Images ![6230i - 1.3 Mega Pixel Camera Phone - Video - FM Radio - Mp3 - Bluetooth - Sim Free (Black & Silver Colours) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/816TSYIVCqL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Bluetooth - can I connect it to my car for hands free, some nokia are only for file transfer?** A: Yes you can. If I don't put mine in the cradle and leave it in case or pocket I've set it to connect via BT automatically. **Q: Is it open to tesco sim?** A: Each individual phone will either be locked or unlocked. You’ll have to contact the seller direct. Tesco is on the O2 network, so if it’s locked to O2 you’ll be fine. **Q: what size sim card does it take and does it do predictive text** A: It takes a standard size sim, if you have a mini or nano sim you can can buy an adapter for it. (That's what I did, only about £2 or £3 of Amazon) Yes it does do predicted text. **Q: Will this work with the micro sim with adapter to make it a standard sim** A: No, I don’t think it will, although i’m not Technical. Contact your network to see if they can send you the SIM card for your mobile number for this phone they should be able to advise you better..
