The Nokia 2652 is an updated version of the Nokia
2650 fold-design phone, available in the new "Cell" and "Fleur"
motifs with silver chrome detailing.
Apart from the new look, inside the 2652 is not
really any different from the 2650. The polyphonic ringtones have
just 4 voices, making them pretty poor compared with 64-voice ringtones
which are quite common on a lot of phones these days. The display
is also small and low quality. The 2652 is slightly heavier than
the 2650, at 97g, making it rather heavy for a phone with no camera
or other advanced functionality. The 2652 is a basic entry-level
phone with an attractive design and good battery life, but not much
else to recommend it.
Features of the Nokia 2652 include:
Display: 4096 colours, 128 x 128 pixels
4-way scroll and 2 softkeys
4-voice polyphonic ringtones
LED light alerts for incoming calls and texts
Downloadable Java games
Wallpapers & themes
Messaging: SMS, MMS
Calendar & personal organiser functionality
XHTML web browser
WAP 1.2.1, GPRS Class 4, HSCSD
Storage for 50 SMS messages
Vibration alert
Dual band
Size: 85 x 46 x 23 mm
Weight: 97g
Talktime: 3 hours
Battery standby: up to 288 hours

My 2652 spoiled(the pad that covers the buttons has come off too
fast)in less than 3 years and I have come to think that 2652's are
low quality,but the ringtones are quite ok,though the internet connection
is a bit poor,The one thing that makes me really like it though
is that the battery is long lasting even though if falls countless
times Rating:

hello everybody i purchased this phone nearly last year,at the the
beginning it was going well although sometimes it didnt work but
i guess that happens to all phones but now after nearly a year,,it
is almost not working,, -when opening 3 quarters of the screen is
black and the screen saver is still there and wont go ,,pressing
the keys doesnt do anything -when talking sometimes it displays
insert sim card -sometimes it doest ring at all ,,and doest respond
to any calls as tall although the network dashes r complete -the
cover is nearly removed -the light sequences nearly dont work or
usualy hang i feel that i regret getting this phone,, coz it doesnt
have so many feautures and now it is almost dead,,,, with this amount
of money i could have bought any other brand with better and more
features i'm almost worried to get another nokia phone i dont know
what happened to them Rating:

I love this phone: it's beauty is not just aesthetic but also functional
in that it is just a phone and does not pretend to be anything else.
Ignore it's web browsing and messaging, I have a perfectly good
computer for that. Inexpensive to buy, easy to use and reliable:
how can this be improved upon? Rating:

I bought this phone around a week ago now, and ever since buying
it, it's been great, sure, it has it's down sides, but as my second
phone, I think it is really great. My last phone was a very simple
phone with low colour and poor battery, so this new phone makes
a big change. It's great as a first phone for teenagers, like myself. Rating:

Good quality phone! I use this as my second phone for business calls.
It works great as a phone and has a simple menu system and is easy
to txt with. The fliphone style is very comfortable. The only thing
to remember is when it rings you have to open it to look who calling
and if u dont press silence/busy within 5 seconds it auto answers.
But this small quirk you soon get used to. It may not have the extras
of my other phone a Samsung E900 but do you really need them? Rating:

Just bought this phone described as entry level and find it excellent.
Can't understand why all these sad people don't realise that a phone
is for making TELEPHONE calls with, a CAMERA is for taking photographs
and a RADIO for listening to music. This phone does exactly what
it says on the tin, easy to use , clear display etc, what more does
somebody who wants to make phone calls without being tied to a land
line want? By the way looking at some of the reviews on your site
it surprises me that some of the reviewers can use the more technical
phones 'cause it's obvious they can't use a keyboard. Rating:

As the owner of this phone as my second handset my first being a
Sony Ericsson W300i i feel This is a very useful base level phone
there aren't many speacial things on this phone, NOKIA have many
great phones on there books and this is another, but as it has been
designed to be very simple there aren't ment to be many features
and is very easy to use. It's a great simple handset and nice to
have as a second fone but will NEVER and should NEVER be compared
to the handsets that people "RAVE" about. the handset would benifit
from having bluetooth but as there are very few features NOKIA must
have seen this as pointless, but good on NOKIA for making a simple
handset in todays demanding world. Rating:

Hello, I bought the phone two weeks ago. He's very very good! Very
handy and all, just excellent. What I like the most is that he lights
up when you got a message or call. So you don't have to always open
it. I love him! Margaux Geeroms Rating:

if you want a camera phone, why don't you buy a digital camera?
can't send it? i'm sure there are some out there where you can do

buy an iPod nano? this phone is simple and elegent. i like the games

Hi, I work in the Carphone Warehouse in Kingston Upon Thames and
I'm a sells manager for nokia and I will tell you about this phone.
Guys! I am fed up with people who think a phone is only a phone
when it has camera, bluetooth, MP3, Polyphonic Ringtones and features
like that. That is not true. A mobile phone is a device that is
used to call or text people. Of course your going to get amazing
phones out there with MP3 ect. but that isn't the point! The point
about the Nokia 2652 is a phone with everything you actually need
e.g: MMS capability, speakerphone, colour screen, polyphonic ringtones
and loads more (www.nokia.co.uk). The Nokia 2652 sim free is afordable
to and will only cost you £74.99 and on contract from free with
everything you can possibly need on a mobile phone. I recomend this
phone to anyone who has a price budget of around £100.00 or for
somebody who needs a basic, normal mobile phones with all key features.
Thank you and goodbye! ;) Rating:

and talk on it for around 40hrs in a week, this is a great phone
for those who have had enough of poor battery life, and software
problems with built in modems and camera upgrades. this phone nokia
2652 has all the features i require, wallpapers,calendar,contact
list, speed dialing,alarm clock,loud speaker. basically a good phone

Near identical to the previous model (2650) with next to none improvements,
with the only notbalte addition being the new external design. The
phone itself, the same as the 2650 which begs the question, what
was the point nokia>? Outdated features, no external display, poor
internal display, if you want a very basic flip phone this is it,
but there are much much better alternatives on the market. Rating:
