Nokia/3230

The 3230 is the first Series 60 for the 3000 (consumer) range:

And yes, it looks like a top-heavy .

Notes:

Bluetooth services as reported by :

SDP Server, Hands-Free Audio Gateway, OBEX File Transfer, SyncMLClient, Nokia OBEX PC Suite Services, OBEX Object Push, Dial-Up Networking

Pluses:

  • Good looks, good numerical keypad, good joystick, well-balanced.
  • Reasonably good camera (optics are still a bit lacking, though)
  • The usual Series 60 connectivity niceties (Bluetooth, infrared, etc.)
  • Fast (seemed faster than the , but then I seldom install extras)
  • Syncing with 2.1 works fine (contact photos, multiple numbers/addresses, etc.)

Minuses:

  • Upper keys are a bit too small
  • The typical Series 60 lack of base RAM, and the idiotic RS-MMC format.
  • Only one side button (volume during calls is adjusted using the joystick, which is not that handy)
  • Still a bit too large
  • Uses the new unified, grossly overbloated Nokia PC Suite
