Good Points: Looks nice, bright back-light, good quick access to texting, the calendar, camera and contacts are via the circle button, long battery life, nice torch (it really annoys people when you shine it in their eyes!)
Bad Points: The screen could have been bigger, camera quality very average for price paid, the memory is awful - only 1.1MB!! Cover cutter becomes blunt easily, overpriced.
General comments: In fairness, the Nokia 3200 mobile phone has lots of bad and good points. All I can say though, is that it's only worth buying if you find it cheap.
It's very simple and easy to use, and it is nice looking, but it does have flaws. I was even surprised that it came with no software or cable to link to the PC with - you have to buy it separately. The memory is the biggest problem though, as it's just not enough. A high quality photo takes up around 12-15KB, and this soon mounts up if you have other things, like ringtones and games. However, if you're new to mobiles, or want something bright and easy to use, this is definitely the phone for you.
It's so easy to get to the features, and it is a joy to use and so simple, as Nokia always seem to make their phones - it's just the simple, yet important things that let it down though. Sorry Nokia, but you've got to give us better value than this.

I do like the Nokia 3200 mobile phone, and I think it is good for the type of people who drop their phones a lot, as I have dropped it several times and it has never broke. You can also change the covers and make your own.
The only things I don't like is that navigating the menus is boring; you can't have special key tones, and the menu is a boring layout. Also the colour screen is bad quality, and so is the camera. The games that come with it (Bounce, Virtual Me) are good though, and you can ...

I bought my Nokia 3200 phone ages ag and I haven't had a single problem with. I use the radio rarely but when I do I get a good reception. I went on the Nokia site and even got myself a free Cover Cutter so I can get perfectly shaped covers, which is good. I am happy with my phone but it seems like it is out of date and old, the camera is good but could better.

I like the Nokia 3200 but I wish someone had told me how easily it would break, but as I said if you are looking for a first camera phone then this is it, because it is a good phone.

The Nokia 3200 looks ugly, the shape is very mundane. The cam is poor, it doesn't have a video recording feature, and it's hard to get radio reception.
My hands are getting tired from all the bad points, let's just leave it at that. Basically don't buy this phone!

Nokia are well known for their quality mobile phones and the 3200 is no exception to the rule. Even with the new remarkably low price of £50, the 3200 does not skimp on the features or design quality.
But first things first - the look. On first glance, those buttons look like they are going to be a disaster - rather than individual buttons for the numbers, there are 6 ovals each split into a top and bottom half with a different number on each. In order to get the right number, just pre ...

I have a contract phone with O2 but I use a lot of minutes so I have a stand-by PAYG sim with Virgin mobile and this handset only has just been reduced to a ridiculously low price of £39.99, so rather than keep swapping sims between one phone, I bought this so I can keep my Virgin sim in one place.
Most reviews of this phone are very good, but some people seem to think the camera isn't up to scratch. Admittedly there are only 5000 colours on the display, but I think the display is clear ...

Upgraded my phone to the Nokia 3200. Not Bad. I love the idea of the "make your own" covers although very poor cutter supplied. Very modern design and typical easy to use Nokia layout which is great. To start with the button layout is rather hard to grasp but after having it for a few days it was extremely easy to use. Great overall phone my only bad point are that it has a typical Nokia camera-poor quality-although the night mood is relatively good, but overall a good to average phone.

I got the 3200 in exchange with the Nokia 6610. I thought it was advantgeous and it was, except for the style. Anyway, the screen quality is not bad, but not great also (4000 colours). The camera is useless, if you really need a camera in a phone forget about it. The battery stays for about 3 days. It maybe a nice phone for you if you don't need a camera as it's price is low. I think you can get a SonyEricsson T610 for nearly the same price and far better features.

I bought the Nokia 3200 3 months ago, upgrading from a Nokia 3310. It appealed to me as it seemed to have quite a lot of features for a pretty low price for a camera phone. The phone has a camera, a radio, wap, a calender and what I feel is a decent amount of storage, it keeps 60 mssgs at any one time and 400 phone contacts. The only problem I have found with this phone is that after three months I've just had to put it in the bin!! after dropping it from jeans pocket height, the camera has gone ...

Upon using my Nokia 3200 for around 9 months I have not thought of changing mobile again. All the features are bundled into this little box as it seems that you require nothing else.

The Nokia 3200 is a very good phone but with drawbacks due to Nokia's 'youth style' phones. Basically, these are phones that have all the features but they are stripped down. For example the phone has a camera & a colour screen but the camera has a max resolution of 352x288 and the screen has just 4096 colours and 128x128 screen pixels.
On a more positive note, the phone is packed with features including an FM radio. It has good reception but has failures picking up local radio stations. Yo ...

All I can say is, if you are buying this phone because you want a camera included, don't. The camera on the Nokia 3200 is very poor for the price. I have found cheaper phones with far better quality cameras. For example- this phone priced at £100 has a resolution of 128x128 with just 4096 colours. The phone I exchanged this for cost £80 and had a resolution of 640x480 and 65k colours. I can tell you the difference in picture quality is immense. The Nokia is good in other areas- its s ...

The Nokia 3200 is a good phone, but with long term problems, I reccomend it to upgraders, or as a short time phone as it is cheap. It has 4000 colour display and the quality of pictuires is average.

I purchased a Nokia 3200 in Jan 2004, it's best bargain considering the features and the price. I really felt like a winner when I bought it. But it scratches easily. Secondly it's a pain to write the messages. Thirdly the quality of images deteriorate tremendously if you do edit them.

For what you pay the Nokia 3200 really is a bargain. It really is a reliable and quality phone. With as many extras as you could possibly want.

I loved the Nokia 3200 mobile phone within a day after purchasing it. Reception is very good. Though it has an upgraded GPRS (EDGE) but at times has difficulty connecting to internet; to download files, tones, and screensavers.
Screen display is acceptable, what do you expect from 4k colour display? Just buy an expensive phone to get an excellent resolution. The only flaw I get is that when I'm recharging the battery in off mode. It's difficult to see the bar scrolling in the display while cha ...

The Nokia 3200 overall is a "teen" phone targeted towards the teenagers. It's a nifty little phone for fun and not really for professional business use. The number pad takes a while to get used to but overall it's alright. The camera quality is not that great compared to other phones but hey, it still has a camera! The two coolest thing on here is the built-in flashlight which is quite bright and the FM radio. The only main thing that I disapproved of, is the layout of the phone. The layout ...

I've had my Nokia 3200 for 2 or 3 weeks & I've had to take it back twice -both times the problem was in the camera. It's good because of the touch and the radio, but the buttons are really annoying and the graphics are rubbish.

My husband and I both have a Nokia 3200 mobile phone and we can not be happier with them, we purchased an infrared data applicator...and now can get thousands of different ringtones....at the moment I have the friends theme and my husband has star wars.....
We love the fact that you can make your own covers...as the kids have made colourful ones for me, and we customised my husbands with the soccer club that he plays for, as his cover...also he is wrapped to have manchester united logo as his b ...
