Warning: You will want to buy a 6300 after reading this review.
Main complaints are:
- Finger print smudging
- Camera quality
- Volume buttons on the side are extremely difficult to press
Everything else is making me giddy:
- 60 minute voice recorder function
- Waking up via the radio
- Timed profiles
- Opera Mini preinstalled
- MiniUSB
- 16 million color QVGA screen
- Font size is adjustable
What kills it: $350!
I got my E61 for $400. That included overnight shipping.
I guess you pay for style. 12 millimeters thick is pretty insane.
The phone is really responsive. I picked the 6300 over all S60 phones simply because the S60 phones were too slow and the S60 UI is counterproductive. But, I did notice that the 6300 resets occassionally when using Java (e.g. when using Gmail, Opera Mini, and Yet Another Tetris something)
If you keep anything inside your pocket besides your phone, then you will find that the metal finish of 6300 gets scuffed up really quick.
I held it in my hand at Frankfurt airport for 45 seconds, and its just feels absolutely right in your hand.. and the screen is fantastic. This is really going just sell like hot cakes (already is in the markets where its out).
ppl r complaining about getting a “hot” feeling after talking for 15 minutes in their hands/head.
nice fone, i just dont trust thin animore:D
