Review: The Nokia 6280 is the first phone I dared to buy since the old nokias. By a general rule I only ever stick to Nokia because I find that they are the best for quality. The 6280 is NO exception at all. Even if you are not familiar with the earlier models of Nokia, the 6280 is very easy to use, easier more so than any phone I have ever owned.The phone and text messaging services are very easy to use with many smileys and options to your calling services than you would find on many other models, and depending on your network, you will be able to easily send and receive text messages from all across the globe.The camera is another great feature. You are able to easily toggle between Picture Phone and Video Phone, meaning you can take pictures and videos in one camera. You are able to edit the quality of the picture AND the image quality to suit your own personal preference.I myself can vouch for this camera. I went to see Ozzy Osbourne live on Friday and took several pictures and videos, ALL of which came out AMAZING quality, perfect view and perfect sound with very minimal back fuzz. If anyone reading this would like to see any of these videos or images if you’re considering buying this model, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me.Durability is another question though. The phone is very easy to break, and just from a tiny drop the back case can come off leaving your battery and sim open to damage. Aside from this, there have also been other minor problems such as your phone switching off at random times. I have had this many times while I have been at work, mainly when using the media player to play music, but it is not very often it does it. Recently I have found it to switch off when connecting to the PC, but Nokia will send out a replacement phone if it keeps up; I am currently on my second 6280 because of this.Overall I would say it is an amazing phone for general needs. I have found it easy to use for all purposes, and the quality of picture and video is spectacular. Could easily be compared to professional video cameras, and my friends who I have showed some of my videos too actually asked me if I’d got a video camera and were shocked when I told them it was my phone that had done every aspect of filming, whether it be for generic videos with my friends, or the Ozzy Osbourne concert you read about above. This goes for both pictures and video recording, the quality is just AMAZING and is easily the best out of all the phones I have owned over the years.Another good thing about the camera is that you do not need a sim-card in to be able to use it. As long as you have a decent memory card, it will record and save onto the memory card with no exception. This is very useful for me as I recently cancelled my Vodafone contract meaning my sim-card no longer works with a Vodafone sim-card and it is not unlocked for other networks.A good 8 out of 10 is well deserved, the only downfall is the occasional random switch off, but it’s not often. I would recommend this phone to anyone, as it is easily used by anyone who hasn\’t even had a phone before. It is very simple to use and very great quality.
