Nokia 6030

I won't suggest anybody to purchase the Nokia 6030 in particular and any nokia set in general. The main problem i ever notice is its poor speaker system which occasionally goes out of order. Even when i set it in ringing mode i can't listen the ringtone of incoming calls except a bip sound. Unfortunately nokia service centre never take care of rectifying this problem and after three free service during a year for the same problem they denied to look in the matter free of cost as the warranty period is over! Can you imagine if the same had happened with a costly nokia handset what would be my mental condition? I did not get the replacement for the defective battery till date even after assurance form the company.

I bought the Nokia 6030 phone a couple of months ago for £26 as an eBay purchase, new and unused. It looks quite classy though it is simply a candy bar style. The keys are small but even my fingers manage it without real difficulty.The 6030 is probably not a good purchase for someone who wants all the bells and whistles. I believe it does have a radio built in but I haven't had cause to use it. For someone like myself, wanting to make calls and send and receive texts, the 6030 is a good choice. It feels better in the hand than the budget models and works well.

I would not recommend the Nokia 6030 phone to anyone as the face light goes dark. Keys are difficult to depress and use. This is actually the 3rd 6030 that I've been sent from T Mobile and continue to have the same issues with all three of them.

Had them all!

Motorola SLVR, that just stopped short of buttering my toast in the morning, and Nokia 5140i, 6230i, etc, etc!

This Nokia 6030 phone does what it's meant to do, talk and text, with a good radio as well.

Don't be bought by that other talk, like cameras and mp3's, there just a selling ploy to suck you into big money market. Try remembering what a phone is actually for, took me almost ten years to figure it out. Talk and text dudes, it's more than enough.

If you need a good basic phone that works, this Nokia 6030 is it. It has good reception, really pulls in signals. Easy to use. It's a good basic phone. Menu features are also easy to use. Speaker phone works great! Very clear. FM radio really works well also.

Nokia 6030 - This phone is the best when it comes to value for your money. It's simple to use. The menus are intuitive. The phone looks like nice. I bought this phone for just below 8k pesos here in the Philippines. No camera, no bluetooth (don't need these anyways). But no infra compared to other phones of its price. Large keys for easy messaging. Ringtones sound nice. All in all I recommend this phone if you are on a tight budget. Best buy!!!
