Nokia 6230

6230 Nokia picture Similar in many ways to the Nokia 6220, the Nokia 6230 is a business class phone that also includes features like an integrated digital camera, video recorder and a music player. For a phone with such a safe, pedestrian design, the 6230 is unfortunately saddled with a would-be stylish keypad that's needlessly difficult to use. The middle column of keys is almost twice as wide as the left and right columns, which makes for tough dialing. The middle keys match the width of the square, five-way toggle, which works well when you're navigating menus, but falters when you need to select items. Too often, we nudged it one way or another while trying to push it straight down.

Alas, there isn't one. With the phone in standby mode, you activate the camera by nudging the navigation toggle up -- a shortcut we discovered by accident, as it isn't labeled. Slightly larger and a touch heavier than the Nokia 6220, the 6230 brings a number of enhancements, not least being the active TFT colour display with 65536 colours, compared with the measly 4096 colours of the 6220. However, the screen resolution is still relatively poor at 128x128 pixels. The quality of the camera has also been enhanced, with full VGA resolution up to 640x480 pixels. The 6230 represents a significant improvement to the 6220 and is highly recommended, although it does suffer from a poor quality screen compared with other camera phones in this class. The new Nokia 6230i significantly updates the features of the 6230.
