An Entry-Level Handset with some surprise features...

Category: Review on Nokia 2680 Slide Mobile Phone

Posted by: 1-Aug

Strengths: Easy to use, decent multimedia options, Bluetooth

Weaknesses: No external memory

The Nokia 2680 offers basic features and best suits someone looking out for a phone just to call and message. This low-priced mobile has a TFT display capable of displaying sixteen million colours. There are navigation keys on the front and a number pad below the slide. The phone has an in-built memory of 7MB. You don’t get the option to expand the memory further.

The VGA camera is a surprising inclusion to the Nokia 2680. The camera lets you capture images and record videos. It just performs the basic functions of a camera and does not sport any advanced features. The 2680 slider mobile features a music player and an FM radio, although it has not been designed for multimedia. You can store all your favourite tracks and videos and enjoy them regardless of the place. A handy radio recorder allows you to record your favourite tracks.

Easy and instant sharing of photos, videos and music is possible with Bluetooth and MMS facilities on-board. The GPRS Browser and the WAP provide Internet connectivity. The battery lasts for around 4 hours in the stand-by mode.

If you are looking for a low-end phone that does the basics well, then the Nokia 2680 Slide mobile phone might be right up your alley.
