    Introduce external assessorie to use 3G faciliities
    Well recommend Nokia 6230.

    An older phone, my first with a camera at the time, really only good for fun snaps, pictures arent anywhere near print quality.
    Phone would make a good business issue phone as it is dependable but no frills. Software is good and robust, java games and applications can be installed also.

    I totally agree with the review that elliot17 put on the Nokia 6230. I have owned this phone for about 4 years, and it hasn't let me down once. It has a simple, clean look and may begin to look a little boring compared to newer, more funky phones but yes it is perfect for someone who wants a pretty basic phone. The battery life is really good and it lasts for ages.It has some good features like bluetooth, a camera that can shoot videos, built in wap and gprs, infra-red and radio. The phone has a ...

    This Nokia 6230 mobile phone is old now - I have had mine about a year but it is still a great mobile phone for the sensible person. It has a camera with bluetooth which is useful, the battery life is also great and it's good to be used as a phone with some extra bits. This phone is getting old now so if you are young and want something fun then go for a new Sony Ericsson but if you are boring and old (I am 17 but act older) then it's still a good phone. My next move is to upgrade to the 6230i t ...

    Well I've had this Nokia 6230 mobile phone 2 years this November on contract and I love it. There have been so many different features been packed into such a little phone. I strongly recommend this phone to anyone that wants a good, long lasting, reliable phone. Its great.

    Excellent phone, excellent battery life, good functional phone which is easy to use and really good Bluetooth function, but poor camera and similar to all nokias. I have stuck with nokias throughout my mobile career and sure hope the new range are a bit different or may see myself switching to another manufacturer

    The Nokia 6230 is the best mobile phone I have ever owned. I bought it off eBay a couple of months ago, and it was locked on the O2 network, and I've not had any problems with it at all. OK, once or twice it's turned itself off, but you press another button and it turns itself back on with no problems. THIS IS A BRILLIANT PHONE IF YOU'VE GOT £80-£120 TO SPARE. If you get the headphones and buy a 256Mb MMC memory card off eBay at £13 you will also have a wicked MP3 player.

    I bought the Nokia 6230 mobile phone in September 2005, and I should never have done.

    The phone itself worked fine, until one day it kept turning itself off, and then each subsequent replacement and repair would do the same thing.
    I also have friends who have this phone and the 6230i, and they report the same fault after a certain amount of time. Is it a plot by Nokia?!?!
    I also had to fight to get my money back. I can not recommend this phone to anyone.

    The Nokia 6230 is a great mobile phone. My only frustration with it is there is a software fault which means that some of the numbers that I have in the phone aren't recognised when that person calls me. It even happens with my husband's mobile, and I definitely have his number in the phone! The only way I have been able to get round this is to attach pictures to the numbers that I can, so that I get a picture of the caller!

    If you want a simple understated mobile phone that pretty much does everything you want, look no further than the Nokia 6230. It si not the flashest thing around, but it just does the job properly. Never drops calls, sound quality is excellent, and it stays in pretty good nick even when neglected and just dropped in your pocket with your keys and lose change. I had a Nokia 6630 before, but found I was constantly aware of carrying it and taking care of it. Loved the 6630, but the 6230 is grea ...

    I like the Nokia 6230 mobile phone. It's stylish, works fast, and I've not have many problems with it. The only thing I have had problems with is the middle button, but you'd have to see the phone really. Other than that, on some networks when you send a text (I'm on O2) I get a balance report after, and the 6230 sees it as a text message and makes a text noise... every time I send a text, and it vibrates on silent, which is a little annoying if you're out in public or in a lecture or class, bu ...

    Overall the Nokia 6230 is a very good quality phone. It has good sound quality, great memory & I never had any problems with battery life. Unfortunately, the camera is poor quality & the pictures look even worse when they're uploaded to our p.c. The design isn't that bad but the square buttons are slightly annoying & the 5 way navigation key is ok until you want to press conform.

    Ok then first of all have you read any other reviews?
    If you have you will find that most of the people that have submitted there reviews as soon as they started to use the Nokia 6230 phone they complain that the centre selection key is not very easy to use which is true, at first. I have owned a 6230 for 7 months and I don't notice anything. You simply get used to it!

    Anyway back to the plot!

    The phone has a low resolution camera. To upgrade to a megapixel camera (1.3mp. For much better ...

    I rang Orange in the first instance about my Nokia 6230 and after lengthy conversations with several different operators in was referred to Nokia customers services which was 75p min number. Who then advised me to go to the Carphone Warehouse on the high street to get the phone fixed. After speaking to them I was told their had been an influx of these type of phones having problems so it could take upto 2 weeks to fix. The phone continually turns itself off and is a waste of time.I know of sever ...

    The Nokia 6230 is a great mobile phone. The memory is excellent. It's easy to use, and usually always gets good reception. The menu is easy to navigate, and the bluetooth is very simple to use.

    The Nokia 6230 is the best mobile phone I have had to date. I've had it for just over a year, and I'm yet to have a problem with it. I must have dropped it 50 times, and even though it's a bit scratched, it still works perfectly! The camera isn't great quality, but it works for me! The loud speaker function on it is superb. I prefer to use this in my car than the hands free kit. The calender is very easy to use, and the alarm that accompanies the calender is very useful. It's so good, my diary i ...

    The Nokia 6230 is the most fabulous phone that I've ever used. It's got all the features in it. Good sound & also it's extremely compact. The battery life is amazing. I can use my phone for 4-5 days & still I don't have to re-charge the battery. I'd advise everybody to choose the Nokia 6230 if ever they want to buy a very easy-to-use & yet classic mobile phone.

    I first received the Nokia 6230 as an upgrade back in September 2004. It was the first time in 8 yrs I had had a Nokia but I had heard such good things about their useability that I decided this was the phone for me. The first phone I received started switching itself off after just 2 weeks. I am now on my 4th version of this phone and have finally managed to exchange it altogether for a Motorola V3 as I am giving up Nokia's altogether now after a catalogue of problems. The second phone went ...

    The Nokia 6230 is without a doubt the worse phone I have ever owned. More or less right away it started switching itself off. It went in for repair, and came back the same way. Back for repair again, and after some argument, the handset was replaced. The new handset didn't work at all, so back it went again!

    I now have another new handset, and fingers crossed, so far it seems to work. Although I may have spoken to soon, as the camera has packed in now!!

    Just waiting to see what Vodafone ...
