Nokia 6230i

[]tter\/\/ard · 05-06-2007, 21:25

What do people think of this phone? I'm thinking of getting one - I know they are old(ish) now, but are they still up there in the "cool" phones to have?

They're too common.

They are still good I had one (still got it) it's a good little phone.

Thanks. Do you know if you can change the menu icons? With my 5300 I can alter the icons with each theme

Theres a good website I use where you can download themes for the phone for free. I'll pm you the link and you can have a look when you get your phone.

I love mine! I've always been up to date with phones, always making sure i get the best upgrade asap, but when i got my last upgrade i actually continued to use this phone cos it is just so good, has only just started to go funny on me, cutting out etc. but after years of major use I'm not surprised!

Hi thanks for the PM. I use that site along with Zedge for themes for my K750 and 5300

Still considering getting the 6230i... can't quite decide lol.

My mate has 1, its lookin abit worse for wear but he just won't part with it. So go for it.

[]tter\/\/ard · 06-06-2007, 18:58

Thanks guys. Think I will buy one at the weekend

It's between the 6230i and the LG Chocolate... the 6230i seems to be the one I like best.

LG Chocolate is crap a couple of my mates had them said they break easy and crash alot.

I've ordered a 6230i

Good decision mate. I've just put a new genuine Nokia cover on mine as old one was looking a bit tatty now looks like a bran new phone

[]tter\/\/ard · 09-06-2007, 10:47

Just got it this morning

Less than 24 hours from order to delivery! I love the genuine Nokia cover, it just makes it look more expensive and it feels more solid.

6230i has 65k colours and my 5300 has 256k colours yet the screen on the 6230i looks better than the 5300! Madness. But great phone, glad I bought it. I'm gonna fill it up with themes now methinks

09-06-2007, 10:59

Yeah awesome innit

You know I took 2 pics exactly the same, one on my 62310i and one on my 6280 and the 6230i looked better quality to me

To bad Nokia didnt stick with things they way they made the 6230i for me personally its the most reliable phone i've had in years

09-06-2007, 11:32

6230i lol whoops I should've checked my typing more carefully. Never mind

Definately has to be Genuine Nokia cases though not those cheap ones you can get that fall apart in a week.
