Nokia 6303 Classic Candy Bar mobile phone handset reviews and tariffs

+ Good battery life. Clear screen. Smart looking. Easy to use. Good Sound.

- No picture display. Poor web connection.

+ Battery life lasts a lot longer

- Could have better ring tones

+ It has a large screen, great sound and is packed full of features. The battery life is really good goes about 4 days without needing charging and it is always on. The camera takes great photos, browsing the internet is pretty simple and the speakers are fairly loud compared to other mobile phones I have had.

- I think the only bad point is the keypad which is quite small, but once you get used to it it is not really a problem.

+ i always had nokia fones as i am a pensioner i wud not like 2 change any thing so easy 2 usei dont do the e mails or music but everything is brill

- none 4 me

+ General all rounder... beats most over phones... no novelties just a good quality phone.

- Was a bit disappointed that the Nokia Maps function was not 'live' ie there is no gps to tell you where you are/going to. But it is handy to have the maps all the same.

+ I always have Nokia phones I have tried others and always gone back. This one is no exception, easy to use and dependable.

- As far as I can see, none.

+ Easy to use.Backlit keypad good. Flashing LED for missed call or message.Battery life very good.

- For the price - none.

- The keys are floppy - they require a lot of effort to press. You do not know if the key press has registered because they do not 'click' positively. My Nokia N73 was far better and the keys there were much smaller. The menu screen is skimpy. The Nokia N73 had plenty of icons to go straight to where you wanted to go. With this 6303 you have to drill down through sub-menus. The camera shutter delay is awful. It clicks to indicate that the picture has been taken, but it hasn't. That comes a second or two later after the subject has moved. I cannot get the phone to pair up with my Bluetooth headset despite following the correct routine (several times). I have now given up. I am considering going back to my Nokia N73 but I shall have to get it unlocked from the '3' network first. All very unsatisfactory. .

- unsuccessful connecting to other blue tooth devices

+ Nokia Maps route planning software very useful. Lots of small improvements on the 6300 - nicer clock screensaver, better text message handling, better menuing, camera much improved - definately worth the upgrade from the 6300.

- Very slightly larger than the 6300.

+ Very good in the hand and small in the pocket. Feels sturdy when compared to the more expensive 5800. Keypad is good for texting and all usual nokia features are good, Mp3 player has good sound quality and is easy to use.

- If it had High speed internet I would give it 10 out of 10. but that's the only real negative for me.

+ easy to use nice size not too small

- none

+ Easy to use.

- Keypad too soft, have to press keys in certain place or they don't work.

- Initial configuration takes a little effort (but then it always does) and there are no easily available sync options for the Mac.

- Ringtones are not very loud like on other Nokia phones

+ battery life

+ easy to use

- keeps freezing

+ Good Looking business handset with adequate features.

- Could argue that it does look a little like a plastic handset ??? Not really any grumbles though.

+ Smart, easy-to-use phone, fairly intuitive

- Explanation of text commands - not having had a Nokia before, it took me a while to find symbols and get used to predictive texting (adapting from using BlackBerry previously to used to a different style of predictive typing)

+ Great Screen
Lovely Design
Great Battery Life
Good Speakers / Phone
Easy to Use

- Keys a bit to small and close together

+ Great looking lightweight phone. Nothing too fancy, just a phone with a great battery life and does everything you want from a phone. Has a good camera, good memory, and has the easy to use Nokia functions.

- If you're looking for state of the art gear, this is not for you. It is quite basic

+ It is practical and has all the things I want.

- None

+ The package is very good value for money and since I do not need a particuclarly sophisticated phone, suits me fine.

+ fairly straight forward to use butwould like a bit more plain speak for us older users some language a bit vague. easy to use most applications. good voice tone. overall a pretty good phone

- not particularly bad but would repeat above comment regarding some istructions. took a bit to sort out camera and picture storing but am probably a bit older than most users but am not completely ga ga yet.

+ Easy to use, simple and does what a phone should do - good for calls and text messages.

- Reviewer left no comment

+ The nokia 6303 is a very good basic phone with most of the features you are likely to need,it looks and feels good and for the most part is easy to navigate .After a month of use i have not had a single dropped call or any software glitches unlike some other phones iv had.

- A little bit slow when browsing the net but then its not a 3g phone.

+ easy to use, compact and stylish. Its got lots of features good battery life

- buttons seem a bit too sensitive at times(probably me) and it has a poor speakerphone (not loud enough)

+ As usual for a Nokia, texting is simple and the keypad feels nice and responsive. I like the bright clear screen, great for playing quiz games. The web browser is adequate, and easy enough to check on the latest football results etc. Very nice 3.2 camera with flash gives good results. Battery lasts for ages too.

- This is a sleek phone, looks great but very easy to lose a grip on if you're not careful.
My main concern is the camera lens on the back of the phone. It's almost flush with the back, and I think it's only a matter of time before it gets scratched. It's a shame it hasnt got a cover or set back into the casing. Its also easy to get fingerprints on the lens because of its positioning, but if you're careful there should be no problem.

+ Fantstically simple and classic - brilliant follow-up to the 6300.

- No bad points

+ ATTRACTIVE PHONE. EASY TO USE. GOOD BATTERY LIFE.

- TEXTING FIDDLY. EASY TO GO INTO DRAFTS. LETTERS DO NOT STAND OUT VERY WELL [I AM SHORT SIGHTED] SO EASY TO HIT WRONGLY. RECEPTION SOMETIMES A LITTLE MUFFLED.

+ Metal case strong

- a bit small

+ Easy to use, good sound quality.

- A ittle too small when talking on the phone.

+ Easy to use, reasonably good camera.

- When listening to music on the radio, easily gets out of tune. This is particularly pronounced while on the move.

+ Nice phone easy to use

- None so far

- Camera is terrible, poor quality photos and takes ages to take the photo (impossible to photograph kids). Inbox does not tell you if you have replied to your texts or not. Once you come out of the message telling you you have voicemail no other sign to indicate you still have a voicemail. Takes too long to find a contacts number, and to put it in to a text.

+ A slim, compact, lightweight mobile phone that's easy to use and set up. A good screen size and a lot of games available that my 8 year old son loves to play on if we are out and about and he gets bored!

- Nothing yet

+ Reviewer left no comment

- Keypad could be slightly larger

+ easy to use uncomplicated as are all nokia phones. nice slimm design

- key pad a little small

+ As this is my first contract phone and my first Nokia, it's the best specced phone I've owned. Very impressed with the camera, and the keypad although small is a joy to use. Build quality is excellent and I will definitely stick with Nokia in the future.

- My only gripe is that battery life is not as good as my old Motorola, but given the number of functions the phone has this is maybe understandable.

+ easy web acsess great camers goog all tound features

- none

+ Easy to use and great buttons for texting! Just wanted a phone with a good camera and a memory card and thats what I got!

- None that I know of.

+ very good value for money,easy to use,clear instruction booklet, attractive

- screen not protected-would have liked a slide back cover. Video time could be a little longer.

+ Nice design, easy to use if you are used to owning a Nokia. Applications are good, offering you a wide choice of communications (email, text etc), sound is OK, although not tested it on video mode. Can't complain at the price.

- Keypad slightly raised, makes for more difficult texting, as sometimes you have to really push the buttons to get it to work. The only other gripe is the signal does not seem to be great, compared to my 6300, but as I said above OK for the price I paid.

+ Looks good, good camera and some fun applications, nice simple alround hanset does everything I need it to.

- The buttons are a tiny bit to small and close for my fingers but I am getting used to them and is afterall due to the compact apprearance of the phone.

+ the nokia 6303 classic generally is a great wee phone great for texing and picture messaging its also really light weight and the battery life is also very good a rate it at least 8/10

- dont think there is any bad points really its a good phone for everything really giving it my vote of 8/10

+ Purchased for making calls, its a phone.
Not too interested in anything else.

- Handbook is too basic and frustratingly difficult to follow.
Transfer of contacts from Sony Ecrisson was a pain, constantly duplicated contacts and reversed first names with surnames followed by "/3". I still do not know what the slash and number are.
I have to lock the keypad all the time,otherwise, if its in my jacket pocket I find it so easily switches to online or makes calls.
Metal cover keeps coming off.
Camera is not very good, but I am not that bothered, its a phone.
Music sound quality is tinny, a waste of time but its a phone.
Although I have had a Nokia in the past, 6310, great phone,I should have stayed with my last phone maker Sony Ericsson.
Ericsson software is much easier. Nokia menu system is long winded especially when handling and using saved info in messages or working files..

+ Design is very modern overall phone layout is great plus you get a better deal on text's & voice calls than Orange are doing in the high street

- sound is not very loud apart from that its a great phone

+ easy to use feels solid

- web sometimes hard to get

+ easy to use

- It is really easy to accidently go to vodafon live when you don't want to from the front menu keys,

+ LOOKS GOOD MANY FEATURES

- SENDING EMAILS TO MUCH MESSING TO GET THE NUMBER TO SEND TO COMPARED TO A SAMSUNG PHONE WHICH I USE TO HAVE

+ All In All nice phone.

- Sound is rubbish.

+ easy to use and looks good

- none really

+ Good camera

- Bluetooth syncronisation, navigation around menus, predictive text. Battery case falls off, can't send multiple txts above two

+ This is a nice mobile phone. The screen is clear and bright. I was not looking for a phone that would do everything just a reliable mobile that I could use as a phone and to text. I do not download from the internet so cannot comment on this The built in camera has a flash and the few pictures I have taken are fine

- The navigation system is difficult to follow, but that may be me (50 yr old male(?))

+ Small, light with a good clear screen

- Buttons are too small even for my thin fingers!

+ good Nokia operating system. small and lightweight.simple to use.

- the curved design of the keypad makes operatingthe top row of keys difficult and results in lots of typing errors when texting.

+ Light weight, good screen, relatively easy to use

- Keypad buttons are a little small

+ simple = user friendly

- i had a fault shortly after i bought it; the screen would completely black out and then turn off on its own so that i could not do anything with the phone
