Small, light, vast name catalog, stylish.
Complex menu, useless features, blocked catalog once, messes up when receiving messages while your read one, unacceptable servicing.
I have had the Nokia 6510 for a year. I owned the 3210 before that, amazing, die-hard machine. This one is small, light, pretty but very expensive, even now that it is obsolete and you can get twice the stuff at the same price!
5 months in use, one day it chose not to let me access the catalog, though it recognised people when they called me. The official Nokia service charged me 17 euros (about 11 pounds) even though the warranty was valid and the fault was obviously not mine. The result: I quarreled with the manager and after I went home I found out they had ERASED ALL the names and all the messages I had stored! The official importer for Greece (Alpha Copy) was equally useless when my sister's 3410 broke down 8 hours after being bought and they took 2 months to replace it. So all greek readers, beware.
When I sometimes try to change the ringing profile it does not respond and doesn't light up, as if nothing happens.
Also, when I'm reading or deleting a message, if there is an incoming one at that moment everything "freezes" and I have to turn it off and on again! Otherwise, I get a frozen screen for an infinite amount of time.
The reception is fine, the FM radio is OK (just changes stations by itself sometimes).
Overall, I prefer not to by a Nokia again (can't stand dealing with its people again and its absurd pricing) but I'm used to it and I have 5 chargers and 2 hands-free kits! What am I to do with them? Try another (japanese maybe) brand.
