Nokia 2600
Classic Review
Phone rating: 
In a nutshell: The Nokia 2600 Classic is a very basic camera
phone priced at well below £100. With a basic VGA camera and
no music player, this is best suited as a first phone for a young
teenager. The FM radio, good battery life and practical keypad layout
for texting make this phone worth a look.

Nokia 2600c is too slow... A 1 second delay kicks in after each button
press. Whoever in the Nokia office OK'ed this to be released to the
public should be put down with tranquilizers and locked in a mental
hospital cell forever.

"Message storage memory not ready" wen i try to take messages for the
first 8-10 minutes. Wat is dis???

such a bad phone. unbelievably slow, especially on start-up when it
feels like a 10year old PC. buttons are too cramped together making
it hard to txt and easy to accidently press send or exit when texting.
very very very poor design

This must be the worst phone I've used. I've received it as a work phone
and it's replacing my DMP300. I'm gutted The menus are slow, the square
menu button is fiddly. To turn up / down the volume during a call, you
have to use the square menu button, which means pulling the phone away
from your ear. The whole system is just badly designed. Another example?
The alarm clock. You have the option of setting snooze. So when it goes
off, good luck on guessing which key is which, but that may because
of choosen a standard background with Black at the bottom and the font
stays black. How stupid is that? The wife has a cheaper Motorola than
this which blows it out of the water.

The Nokia 2600 Classic is one of the worst phone ever. With lousy text
