Nokia 6265i / Reviews

When I first got this phone I was blown away by its features. Solid construction, beautiful display, decent camera, usable MP3 player (at least with an added memory card), Bluetooth and IR connectivity, it seemed to have it all.

It's only now that I've spent a few days trying to use it as a phone that I'm disappointed. The two main issues which have soured me on this phone... reception and battery life. My old basic phone (Samsung A540) almost never dropped calls and only required charging every 2 or 3 days (at least when the battery was new). The 6265i drops calls like crazy (it's virtually unusable when I'm driving) and requires charging ever night (even though I only talk 15 to 30 minutes per day).

I'm sad to say that I'm probably going to have to exchange this phone for a different model.
