6820 - High Quality
Posts: n/a I plan to buy a new mobile phone and I am very interested in the Nokia 6820. Though there are many tests available in the www, I am sure it's better to know the experience of people who use this phone day by day. Can anyone help me? Thanks a lot Stephan  Responses to "6820 - High Quality"

Thanks a lot. The camera is not that important. I am more interested in the keyboard. Best and have a nice weekend. Stephan (germany)

It does not have the camera or bluetooth, but the other functions are similar. The main advantage is that it is bigger than the 6820 and I find the keyboard more usuable. I tried the 6820 (only briefly in a shop) and found it was too easy to hit 2 keys together; OK, maybe I have fat fingers. I do a lot of SMS and it it the best phone I have used for that (except the much bigger and more expensive Nokia Communicator). The keyboard works really well. It is OK for sending short emails too. Receiving emails is limited: maximum of the first 50 emails in you POP server wil be downloaded; long messages sometimes cannot be read at all; HTML format is sometimes handled OK, sometimes not. I think the 6820 has the same email program.

The phone is a bit larger and I find the keyboard easier to use than the 6820. I use it more for SMS and short emails than voice and do not like to use a normal phone now. the 6800 also may be cheap now as it is now an "old" model. It does not have a camera or Bluetooth but does have an FM radio which I find useful sometimes. The software seems similar or the same of both phones. The email system has limitations, and I find it mainly useful for sending short emails, not receiving.
