PRICE
Brought this phone for 121$.

COLOUR
mine was silver black (silver front and back black)

BOX
The box includes kit (phone) , battery (BL-4B) , Charger (AC-3E) , Handsfree (Stereo HS-47) , Backcover (Black Metal) , Instructions , Local Vendor Warranty.

OVERLOOK
The first impression while seeing the phone is that is resembles nokia 6120. looking at the price ratio, u wont mind not having a memory card. The phones the thinnest from Nokia so far. The combination of Silver and black makes the phone appear much thinner from the side. on the upper right corner, u have the handsfree port (2.5mm) charging port and the mini usb port. on to the mid of right, u have the camera button and botton right , u have the speaker grill . The back is plain with a silver lined camera module on the uper side. the back cover is made of steel and differ in colour from the back. (bak is matt while backcover is more glossy)


INSIDE
The screen isnt to good. its more like nokia 3110 or nokia 5200. the phone is slow . Mayb a bit more slower then 6300. However during messaging , the phone doesnt eat up words. I tried messaging on the 6120 , somtimes it used to eat up words suppose if u typing the word "PROGRAM" using the t9, while typing if u pressed "G" while holding "O" , 6120 would eat it up rather then typing. No such thing so far on this phone.
There is no music player and no memory card slot. fixed memory is 10.5 M.B . The phone has bluetooth. The keypad has a cool blue light. The keypas is big and is pretty flat. but u have the positive feedup when u press it which makes it very good for sms users. u also have radio.

CAMERA
The camera is VGA.

HANDSFREE
I transfered a song just to test the handfree. the sound is pretty dull from the earphones. but sounds ok from the speaker phone.

CONCLUSION
According to me , it a waste of design by nokia. after keeping it for a while (4 hours). i regret not having a good screen and no memory card slot. for a design like this , i would had for sure paid more money for the two options missing. The phones looks very good. i just hope they make the same model with card and better screen. i would not mind paying even 250 for tht!

Design is not very attractive , 3110 classic is just few bucks costlier than 2630 , that an better choice than 2630.

For that price it's not worth it imho...once it reaches < 60€ it becomes attractive for the lot of people who just want a phone.

I'd like to know more about battery life, though...

I didn't expect anything special from a 80 euro phone ...
Just think : what do we have "yesterday" with 80 euros? 2626 ?
I got to say that this is a very good upgrade !!

It is a very good choice for those who want a simple-nice phone...
That's the reason for its future sales :)

hmm the 5310 6500c are as thin too i think
but really nice device indeed for a low end

chlettn, the fonedealer guy I questioned about this fone said the battery life was almost incredible for a thin fone like this, and he also had this to say:
+ battery lasted for 6(!!!) days with intensive use (though he has 1-2 more fones on him daily)
+ the frame of the fone is very robust
+ the speach quality (through the earpiece) is very good, sais to be better than his other fone, the 6120c
+ the screen is hard to scratch, quite easy to be read in sunlight and collected absolutely no dust between the LCD and the protective plastic over 1 month (was a permanent Nokia-disease for a long time)
- also the display is virtually the only negative point (along with the weak "processor" of the fone) making it very slow in response

I hope this helped..

I have been looking at this phone and really like the design, but no one in the stores can tell me:

Does it have an in-call-timer???
Also, what is the speaker quality like when on hands free calls?
