Not a good phone

RCF ( over 4 years ago )

3/10

I bought this phone a few months ago. Today it sits in a repair shop (week 3) and who knows how many to go. The Operating System on this phone is not good, it will slow down over time count on it. I think Nokia realizes they built a lemon and have fixed in their next series of phone. Other beefs include... More

Nokia 6265i: powerup slow then dies

Y. Abaza ( over 4 years ago )

4/10

In less than a year since bought, I had same symptoms with two separate phones. The phone starts to become slow in powering up, until finally, you get the white screen death problem. Nokia and Telus would not admit there is an issue with this model. But from my experience and from reading the reviews,... More

it's the 4th time that i send it to repair for the battery charge and it always come back with the same problem. And telus wont change my phone even if it still broke. The only way to get another phone by theme is to take another contract and bla bla bla pay more and more and more like always.... More

Not that great

4/10

I've had the phone for 4 months and I have experienced many of the things others have reported: Slow or no start up, white screen, incredibly slow operating system, dust under screen. I dare not drop the thing for fear of what happens. The phone just died today, and I had to take it to a service... More

this was all i needed. perfect. maybe a little thicker then most- but it was awesome- in the beginning.

i bought the phone in december 2006 and just recently in july 2007 i had to send it in for repairs. the phone turned on and off by itself-the flash would go off whenever-it would send me the same... More

Piece of Crap

i have this phone and was unable to send calls, recieve calls, the send button and the menu button both took a shit on me. I followed all of Nokia.coms instructions on sending the phone in to be repaired and i have been without a phone now for damn near 2 months. My phone has been sitting waiting... More

Lots of problems

These phones must have reliability problems. I bought 2 phones last December (2006). They looked great. However, 3 months later, one phone craps out. It's that white screen everyone is talking about. It must be the kiss of death.

Anyway, I took it back to the place I got it from and got another... More

I've had this phone for about 5 months and it started going really slow. Now it starts up and then shuts off.

I have had this phone since christmas and it worked great for 2 months. I got the apparently common white screen of death. I sent it in. it worked for another 3 months (one better YAY!) and now the phone turns on but the screen is still black. i know the phone and the menus well enough that i know what... More

I really like it

Brian B. ( over 4 years ago )

8/10

Ok, by now it isn't the flashiest phone out there, but I still really enjoy this phone. Start with the screen, as it is what catches your eyes. The screen is amazing, just find something to protect it with. It will scratch if you don't find a screen protector. Second is the camera. The... More

I am quite disapointed at my phone. I have only had it since Jan 22 07 and its now halfway through the year, and its completely broken, wont even let me do the master reset, it just turns itself off, menu is all screwed up, turns off randomly, dropped calls galore, the fact that u cant use the flash... More

JUNK

Nolan Hagar ( over 4 years ago )

2/10

The 6265 is apiece of junk. I've had mine not even six months and its already as good as garbage. I don't think I've ever dropped it, and if I did it was very minor and now its at the point where I can't even use it. I will turn it on, I will get the start-up image but then it will... More

The phone is ok. however I lost everything when I turned the phone off and it wouldn't turn back on. i lost over 150 contacts. i am so pissed! and when i went into Telus, they said that it is a fairly common problem. they weren't surprised!! What the $%$#%%$!!! If they knew why not tell people?... More

Good phone at first. bad phone at last.

I went through 2 nokia 6265s in less than 1 year. The first one worked great at first. Then it started to take alot of time to power up or boot up. Finally the phone wouldnt boot up at all. Took it back, got a replacement. Lasted 4 months and the same thing started happening. Would take at least a full... More

Simply not bad.

I find this phone to be mediocre. The ringtones are cool though, but I find there is not alot of room for pictures. This phone isnt particularly attractive, but to say the least it is not bad. If you just want a phone for calling and texting, then this is a great phone. It has fantastic service, and... More

Fun features, bad as a phone

otmosziz ( over 4 years ago )

5/10

This phone has lots of fun features that may entertain you, though as a phone it ranks the lowest from the list of cell phones I have owned.

1. Don't allow font size to be bigger, very tiny letters indicate the time and date, not great at all as an alternative of wrist watch.

2. It's my first... More

I just got the phone a couple days ago and it has advantages... and some disadvantages. First off the phone looks and feels great. It's size is perfect for you hand and the slider is stable which is something that alot of slider phones don't offer. The features on this phone are great it has... More

My youngest broke my beloved Samsung so shopping I went. (fortunately I was near my upgrade time) I spent lots of time researching my phone options through Telus. I just wanted something that had great reception, sturdy and good sound. I didn't care about mp3's, cameras, bluetooth etc.... More

6265i Decent set with some bugs and problems.

Fred_45019 ( over 5 years ago )

5/10

I like the set but it does has some issues, at least with mine from MetroPCS. The biggest issue I have with it is after you have powered it on and select your wallpaper, ring tones, message alert tones, etc. and then you power it off. Then power it back on and all of your settings for wallpaper, ring... More
