Review: Nokia 2650

Nokia 2650 Review

Phone rating:

The Nokia 2650 clamshell phone, released in October 2004, has the kind of specification that Nokia's rivals were releasing over a year earlier. In fact, the phone has nearly identical features to the Nokia 3100 that was released 15 months earlier! The 3100 had the advantages of being a nice-looking, lightweight phone, whereas the 2650 is neither nice-looking nor lightweight.

It is hard to say anything very positive about this phone, and it confirms the impression that Nokia don't yet "get" clamshells. Our advice would be: "look elsewhere!"

I have now been the owner of this phone for 24 hours and find it exactly as I envisaged (expected). I had formed my opinions after reading the reviews on this page and find that for a third world network and prices, this phone is great. I have just upgraded my 5-yr-old Nokia 3310 and find this a great no frills replacement, especially since I am 54 yrs old and work from the house. Thanks guys for your comments. I am banking on the Nokia name for durability and long battery life.

Haven't bought it yet but intend to do it soon. Having seen at the stores, only two aspects came to mind which would have made it look more appealing to m and I might have bought it instantly. 1. Would have become more feature-full if Nokia engineers would installed a little LED screen instead of the place where they put their huge logo near the folded end of the clam shell. On that screen, it would diplay caller ID while the shell is still closed and hanging on your waist belt (LED side up) and would display Date and Time at other times. Would have suited those who have stopped wearing watches since mobiles arrived. I sure have for one. :) 2. A push button strategically placed near the thumb of the hand which, pressing of which would automatically spring open the clam shell, this would make the clamshell opening possible without utilising the other hand. This is a requirement sometimes while you are drving or engaged in some other work with the left hand. These two features, if incorporated, might make this phone much more appealing to me at least...I can't speak for a million others though.

An excellent all rounder the only disadvantage is the lack of bluetooth, or cable connectivity. I think it's a little more unusual than your average clamshell - meaning it stands out of the crowd and hasn't dated as quickly as rival models. Pick it up second hand and its a bargain.

The company I work for gave me this phone. I love the way it looks, I think it's very elegant and in general I'm very pleased only that I face a coverage issue, I don't have signal everywhere! That's very important and I see that many of you with the same phone don't have that problem, so I'm thinking, maybe mine is defected and I should return it or have it repaired or something. It was very usefull though reading everyone's comments, thanks.

Having had a phone from just about every company, with all the latest cameras, touch screens and gizmos, I suddenly realised that all I really wanted a phone to do was 1) make calls and 2) send messages. That is exactly what this phone does well. It is a clamshell so i dont have to worry about the screen being scratched. It vibrates and is loud enough to attract my attention in the car (with my music up full blast!). The nokia software is still the simplest and easiest to use. The raised buttons and their positioning make it the easiest to use of any phone I have had. Finally the nightmare of my P910i is behind me!

Great basic flip phone. Cool, great battery, excellent. Only problem is the coverage (Signal) on these are absolutely hopeless! honestly believe me. I have a nokia 3315, which gets reasonibly good coverage. On the nokia 3315 i can sometimes have 3 out of 4 bars of coverage and on the 2650 it won't have any coverage at all. There is no apparent reason for this and i have had others with the same problem. Both phones are on the same network and should pick up similar quantiy/quanlity of coverage. But if you live in a place with full signal difinityl consider this phone. its great.

I recently bought the Nokia 2650 phone and in short I like it... it isn't the greatest phone in the world but for the price of €109 u can't expect there to be a polaroid and half a computer inside. I just needed a fone with 3 features, 1. I have to able to make a phone call ... 2. Because of my emmenthal cheese memory, I needed a simple and use friendly agenda ... 3. I wanted a clam, because one way or another I keep on disabling the key-block in my pocket... This phone has all that for a great price A surplus is that it looks great... I have the silver one and when it rings and I pull it out of my pocket my friends look at me as if I where a rich man (tadadidadadadidadadadom pom pom pom pom ...)

It is the ****** of phones... Does exactly what it says on the tin. I've never experienced trouble with signal and the talk and stand-by times are certainly competitive and better than other phones I have had. You have to ask yourself what you want from a phone before you buy one. Those who wanted a camera-phone - well derrrr! - should not have bought this one! Also, those who feel it is large are also probably not very good at parking cars - or learnt from someone very generous what six inches is! If you want a small, attractive phone that makes and receives calls and texts and you like clamshells the I can't recommend this more thoroughly. Trust me, I'm a doctor!

I got this phone from my husband for Valentine's Day, it's red and I love it! There is nothing wrong with this Nokia, it's just a plain phone, that's all. No MP3 player, no camera, no frills and less spills to contend with. Very simple, sleek, petite and lightweight. I get the funniest looks when it rings in public and I pull it out ... LOL! The battery lasts for days on end, took me ages to drain it first 2-3 times as recommended. Charges in no time and when it wakes up, the light is so strong I can use it as a torch. The poly tones are not wonderful but the 'outdoor' setting is so lound, I never miss a call!

It does everything I want a mobile phone to do. Don't need a plethora of bells and whistles I never use. The looks are obviously a matter of taste - for me, the novel style is a real plus and I enjoy having something different. I like Nokias; I wanted a flip, so a perfect combination for me. Plus it's easy and fun to use. I've marked it down a star because I do agree it's quite pricey when matched against other gizmo-packed phones (even though I don't want the gizmos!) and the screen quality could be better.

I would like to rebutt some myths about this phone: 1) It is big: WRONG. It is not big. In fact I find myself often panicking, trying to look for it! (No, I'm not old- I'm 22). It's very small and sleek, fit nicely in a small evening handbag. I notice many people who said it is big is because they have not yet seen the REAL thing. They have just seen the pictures. And mind you, the picture of the phone on this very page does not do justice since it shows the phone when it is unlocked (opened). When it is opened, it is SLIM, unlike other clamshell phones. And when it is closed, it is SMALL and slim- take another brand clamshell phone and place it beside this one and you'll get what I mean. So go to your nearest Nokia store and see it with your own eyes to judge. Btw, to see how the phone looks like when it is closed, here is the link 2) It is ugly: WRONG. The design is very chic. It is slim, sleek, slender. Any girl would love it. It is very feminine, so to speak. It is not bulky like most clamshell phones are. To see how sleek it looks, view this link 3) For a more just and elaborate review on the product, view this link. Another feature I like about this phone is that it is very, very light. The only down thing about it is no camera. However, it can receive and send images via MMS text. And for such a stylish, sleek, feminie phone, I'd thank the manufacturers for the affordable price!

One was the very low volume of the ringing tone, the colour screen display quality and the fact that it had few features even though it had been advertised as the phone for the "professional Person" . It has some high points though, the external design is unique.

This is a phone for the many who don't care about videocameras, Palmtop features and extensive gaming. It has all you need to make a phone call and send an SMS now and again. The result is that is if free with almost any subscription. And it looks different from the other clamshells. I wish more manufacturers got the point that the professional user is looking for style, and do not wish to pay for features they will never use.

It`s a nice looking phone, but it has a 4056 color display.. so not to fancy.. no camera... hmm whatever it`s a great clamshell and the price it`s as low as it can be. And it does fit into ur thongs :) trust me.. my girl has one of this !

c'mon you guys!!! you should read about the specs of the phone before writing a comment! it's a flip phone! of course it can fit into your pocket, even your thongs! :p hehe.. for me, it's too cute to resist! i love flip phones but never had one.. so i'm planning to get this one! (",) i already have a nokia 3650, i just need another phone my other number.. so this one will do! not too expensive but classy! even though it has a mediocre features, well what can you expect in an inexpensive phone? for me, it's all good! :) can't wait to grab one! (",) i hope my parents won't get mad at me! hehe..
