6610i Vs 7250i

ThreadKiller

Can't decide which phone to go for. The 6610i or the 7250i... Anyone any opinions on the two mentioned here ? It's an unlocked handset only I'm after, so network isn't really important.

Its an easy choice - do you want a camera or not?

Mates have 6610 its a fair bit thinner than 7250 and slightly smaller all round. I prefer it to my 7250.

Personally my 7250 (non i) has pretty much decided me against nokia's for the first time ever. (6-7 years worth of Nokias)

Oh and btw if you are interested in the radio function - nokia's pop-a-port headphones are crappen****e. Cable pops off at slightest oppurtunity, coz it pokes out from side of phone.

btw you might get more feedback if you ask one of the mods to move this to pdas/mobiles

Interesting point about the radio SS, that's a primary interest, but not the only one. Both cameras have cameras (both are "i" models)... I'm basically wondering if the only real difference is the shape of them... & foes that really justify the price difference as bothe are now (AFAIK) finished production...

So wheres this 6610i then?

Ive a 6610, didnt know there was a new vers out. The 6610 is a nice sized fone, class battery. S/w can be a bit laggy at times. But good overall. Do u really want a camera yoke?, if not, get the 6610.

i dunno if you think the camera is really impotant or whatever but once you get used to it you wouldnt want to go back plus the 6610i is deadly :P

Both phones are the EXACT same!! Just have differwent covers.

Use of the nokia phone comparator here suggests there is very little difference between them, a few minor features at best. the 6610i is a little more power hungry but fractionally lighter and supports email over sms. Essentially I would say they are the same body with one or two different software tweaks between them.

Thats assuming nokia filled the little details on the spec sheets correctly!

Ignore my ealier comments about my mates 6610 his is actually a 6100 Doh.

Would echo the comment about the nokia interface being sluggish - it is on my 7250 too. Another reason Im not happy with it.

I got both, well, wife has the 7250i...

It's pretty much the same phone, same options, same screen, same battery, same memory...

6610 is a bit smaller and doesn't have the camera.
It also looks less tacky and more professional.

You should ask yourself - do you need the camera, and do you prefer flashy phones?

I've got 6610 My father has 7250, and it completely smokes my 6610!

I has loads of more features! and a very important 4mb(as I remember) memory

I have a 6610. I agree totally, the 7250i looks tacky IMHO. Also, the covers available for 6610 are much better (who wants a 'plum' coloured phone?!)

No contest, the 6610I is a far better looking phone than the toy-like 7250i, which is becoming seriously dated looking.
