A decent phone with plenty of features
The Nokia 6350 is my second phone. I'm quite happy with it; it has quite a few useful features for a basic phone. I mostly use it for phone calls, the camera function, occasional texting, and as an alarm clock, and bluetooth to download photos to my computer. But there are a host of additional features, including music downloads, a GPS and navigator function, and email. Since I didn't bother paying for the data service, I don't use most of the phone's capabilities. However, it needs a protective cover; the outside case scratches and chips very easily. I'm quite satisfied with the ability to customize the phone's interface. I've put up my own desktop image, rearranged the menus, Now, I have some problems with the phone. The back of it comes off rather easily. The power cord port is covered, requiring that I pop open the cover every time I recharge. Also, the phone sometimes fails to ring when there's an incoming, and messages that go to voice mail periodically don't show up until hours later ... but I don't know if that's a problem with the phone itself or with the carrier. On the whole, I'm satisfied with the phone, although I'm certain there are better ones out there. Performance It does exactly what I need it to do -- make and receive phone calls, text in a pinch, and a camera that provides legible (but fairly low-res) shots Voice Quality Adequate voice quality. Nothing special, but no trouble either. Battery Life Better battery life than my old phone, and keeps going quite a while even when the battery indicator is low Durability The exterior enamel chips pretty badly after I'd had it just a short time and the outside screen broke down a few months after I got it due to a cracked screen. Ease of Use The keypad locks up way too quickly and the menu is not as intuitive and straightforward as I would like Design I really like the way it looks and its compact nature
