JeffC Posted October 30, 2005 Author Posted October 30, 2005 About to do similar myself always had Nokias currently have 6230 have narrowed down to 6230i or N70 is the 6230i a fuel injected version of my phone? I have probs with this 6230 dropping calls and am forever getting missed call texts hence looking to change, also can flatten battery in less than a day Quote
kinell Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I always go for the Nokia option, they always seem really robust and are fairly idiot proof and work in a logical manner Surely you'd 'kin believe 'kinell (just remember I aven't logged out again ) Quote
Renmure Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I did similar upgrade last month, from nokia 6230 to Samsung D600. I had been with nokia for few years. A bad move for me. I found working the Nokia 6230 pretty intuitive and the Samsung rather awkward in comparison. My reason for changing was effectively to get something different for a change. I actually still use the Nokia .. and passed the Samsung on to g/f who has always had Samsung phones and even she found some of the D600 functions a bit awkward compared to her previous phones, mainly relating to the number of key strokes needed to send / reply to text messages I think. On the other hand.. maybe its a case of old dogs and new tricks Quote
Mark Stanton Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 6230i - I believe is an improvement on 6230 - my 6230 keeps dropping sim registration and I need to "re-boot" - couple of guys in office have 6230i and their's seem more "stable" Although I've always had excellent reception etc everywhere except when at my office Quote
emma.1 Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I used to work for Vodafone and saw many a Samsung phone come back in for repairs and software issues, but never many Nokias, so therefore I would definately go the Nokia route. Quote
DAVE O Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I've always used nokia - until last year when for a change I got a motorola. I'll be going back to nokia - the mrola is a pain in the Quote
cidersurfer Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I've had no probs with my Nokia 6230, had Nokias for about 10 years without any real issues. Had one Ericson (speeling?) and hated it. The Nokia menu systems just seem so easy to follow... Quote
Major Stare Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Ive had Nokia now since 1996, except for last year i had a Sony K700i, which was an excellent phone. I have gone back to Nokia though for this year to get TomTom on my mobile. Contemplating getting a PDA syle phone now though. Quote
slippy Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Nokia all the way Jeff a lot of our techs had Samungs and they are all fur coat and no knickers Quote
Blatman Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Nokia for me too. Had my hands on plenty of others 'cos the office is full of mobile phone saddo's. I'll be having my third 6310i soon, 'cos it does everything I need it to, which is make phone calls, receive phone calls, and send the odd text... Quote
Mark Stanton Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 and send the odd text... Thought you been warned about those Quote
JeffC Posted October 30, 2005 Author Posted October 30, 2005 hhhhmmm Ive always had nokias, although I had a sony thing with a joystick for a week , I couldnt get away with the menu , If the samsung is as bad as renmure suggests I will stick with Nokia.. btw... what were the Nokias i would have had back in 1995 big thing with a pull out twig was it a 501 Quote
Blatman Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 and send the odd text... Thought you been warned about those It's only the one restraining order... Quote
