6220: I need to know some facts

Hi
I'm planning on buying the Nokia 6220 for my mother, but she has some...annoying terms.
She has a 3510i now and I need to know if the 6620 has like the 3510i:
-A sms counter; it keeps track on how many text messages you have send.
-Does it have the function for a delivery report? So you get an sms back where it says: sms delivered etc?

I'm sorry if this is a little vague, but I don't know how to discribe else.
Thanks in advanced,

Liz

like i said, it's for my mom and all she needs has the 6220. but would you care to elaborate why? just for the video playback function? it's also twice as much as the 6220.
__________________
I don't think the 6220 has got a sms counter, couldn't find it anyway... but the 6230 has got this feature...
but for the delivery report no problem. most Nokia's support delivery reports...
I also recomend you the 6230

Morse code

When you take the function of changing ringingtone for sms, you have a selection of several sms tones, standard, Special, Ascending.
listen carefull to special you hear ...--... , ...--... which is morsecode for SMS, SMS.
listen to Ascending you hear -.-. --- -. -. . -.-. - .. -. --. .--. . --- .--. .-.. . or CONNECTING PEOPLE in morsecode (Nokia slogan)

Well, to read "Connecting people" you'd probably need some radiop experience, but I thought everybody can read "sms"... simply because it is so darn close to "SOS" which is ...---... and should have been well known even to a non-trained ear.

Actually I did not like initially that tone - I am very much against distress signals usage in ads, FM-radio stations or anywhere else since it compromises the idea of a distress signal

EDGE and GPRS

heylo all .
\
all these new phones by nokia have EDGE and GPRS system in them . . well the place i live , they have only GPRS .

i was reading the FAQ on the nokia site and it said tht if the phone doesnt find EDGE , then it would SWITCH its self to GPRS automatically. then y is it tht these phones cant connect to gprs and mms on my network??
__________________
You can set-up edge and gprs or just one of both, if your network doesn't support edge, just set-up grps settings and the phone won't try to switch to edge. so you use GPRS the hole time...
if this is what you wanna know, don't really understand question.
__________________
well i did try to set my phone with all the gprs settings but still it wont connect ..
and plus there isnt any way to manually select gprs or edge mode .

You don't have to have different settings for EDGE, just normal GPRS settings from your operator. If your operator happens to support EDGE and it's available, phone will automatically use it. It's totally invisible to user. The only thing user might notice is the increased data speed.
__________________
then y is tht these new phone , 6230 , 7200 are not able to use gprs services??also when i try to bring the gprs settings , they do not come on these cell phones ...

Sure those phones are able to use GPRS services. You just have to get the correct settings from your operator.

That's why it doesn't work. 7250 uses still WAP protocols to create GPRS connection. 6230 uses TCP/IP and because of this the settings are a bit different. In 6230 you also need to define proxyserver and -port. You'll get these from your service provider.

6230 or 6600

Maybe someone already asked this but I couldn't fon it.....

Wivh phone should i take???

The price of the phones doesn't matter at all, but the functions does...

I want to use it as a mp3player but I never heard mp3's in mono, is it really that worse?? (nokia 6600 does NOT have stereo-output)

So I think I should take the 6230 but the 6600 is operating on Symbian with lots more functions...

Are there people that can tell me about the 6600's mp3player and ringingtones (read in the review that there are not that hard) also I would like to know about the different applications that you use...i know there are lots and lots of appz but do you really use it??

What I would like to know about the 6230 is of the screen is really that bad...?


P.S.
sorry for my english but it is not my motherlanguage

__________________
About the 6600:

The mp3 songs plays not that bad but plays like what the .WAV files, it plays at 16kHz so you won't expect very good quality songs. But it's unlike any previous series 60 phones, the 6600 ringtones are loud, very loud enough to hear it (that's my opinion). A good application for playing MP3 music is MP3Player, and for getting the ringtones even louder you could an app such as Ringtone Studio. The applications are usefull depends on what you realy need.

About the 6230:

It's the latest best series 40 Nokia phone you'll see, It has the stereo ouput and plays the MP3 songs very clearly (a good mp3 player) specially that it comes with a 32MB MMC card, you can add 256MB MMC cards too. The screen is perfect in my opinion it supports up to 65k colors just like the 6600.

so if your looking for an mp3 player phone with other feature packed, you should be looking for the 6230. The 6600 also feature packed plus it's a symbian phone you could add apps and good programs, but you won't like the mp3 sound quality on it because the phone doesn't support stereo.

hope that helps

i dont get it....

when a person is asking about 6230 or 6600 y do u ppl have to come up and tell them about a third phone preforming better??:S

saliquincer y do u alwaz keep trying to prove tht sonyericsson is the best??well i know they make dam good phones but over here the guy is asking about 6230 and 6600 . plz stay on the topic. and well for the price of a p900 , tht unit should play mp3 better then those two..... its almost double the price , and bigger in size .


as for the original thread , i would say 6600 . casue it could function as a multi unit . u could alwaz get games , unlimited recording , bigger screen , few other softwares .

where as for 6230 , u stuck with mp3 , radio thts it . and the biggest problem ........... no gprs and mms ... the rest is for u to decide .
__________________

the series 60 phone with the best mp3 quality is the N-gage, it uses a hardware decoder...

the others don't have good mp3 quality

the 6230 uses also a hardware mp3 decoder and it's a pretty sound comming out of such a small device.

so if you want it for mp3, go for the 6230, do you wanna have more options and more application that can do more, go for the 6600

of course the p900 is better than those two, but as enerlevel said it cost's the double! and its pretty big to...

@enerlevel: according to www.nokia.com the 6230 does support mms and gprs...

@Ahmad007: because of the screen and the symbian os I tend to the 6600 but for the stereo output to the 6230...the mp3player I will probarply use in a noisy area (school) most of the time...would I hear a lot of difference in the sound in that situation???
__________________
YES there will be ALOT of differnces in terms of sound. the MP3 sound in the 6600 is not gonna be that clear it will be like your hearing a simple .WAV file. While in the 6230 the sound is so so clear and a perfect quality sound.

well thanks for all of your support!!! espacially ahmad007

I have made my dessision and it is.......the Siemens SX1

On a dutch forum (GoT) I saw this phone and actually its a combination of the 6230 and 6600!!

stereo ouput and symbian os!!
__________________
Yeah but the stereo on the SX1 sucks... sounds like mono honestly.
By the way, dont compare a P900 with a 6230 ! LOL...
One is for business other is for everyday use...
you guys have no idea wth you're talking about...
__________________
ok here u go ..

6230 : the best speaker phone any nokia phone had uptill now . the mp3 sounds realli sweet when u play it from its own speaker . while the headset isnt all tht loud . i guess the handsfree nokia is using isnt all tht gr8.

6600 :u can have mp3 player for this phone but trust me , its just like having a mp3 player, and getting happy tht u have it , but never listening to it . the quality realli is bad speaially when u listen it tru the speaker . its realli low , distroted .

p900 : it has the best mp3 player . well when u listen to it tru. the mp3 player , the volume is low . but when u put it on the ringtone , its realli loud and good .

sx1 : the phone is bad in every way . stay away from it plz!! unstable software, difficult keypad , bad mp3 and the speaker is allmost same as 6600 .


i think the best for u is 6230 if for mp3 . but the handsfree 7200 is using , is the best i have seen . its really loud and nice . i hope this helps
__________________
Thx for the info but I think I will still go for the SX1, and if it is that bad as you say, then why did Xonia calls it the best phone ever?

The first version where very unstable indeed, but the firmware is already upgraded for 3 times and I heard that it is stable now (heard from people who have the phone).

As I'm going to buy it I will of course first take a look at it in a shop and test the mp3/radio and stuff
__________________
I would go for a Nokia 6600. The phone has better screen, camera(?), and way better software-speed. It has a newer version of SymbianOS (7.0), SX1 has (6.1). But if you really need mp3 in stereo and radio in your mobile, then go for a SX1.
And the keypad is very good on N6600.

Good luck!
__________________
the annoying thing about the 6230..when playing MP3's is that most of the name is cut off on the screen(cos its small). If you have a large MMC with a lot of music it becomes more of a probelm. If u want to find a particular song most of the time u cant tell which is which because of the "cutting off". therefore you have to listen to the start of most of the songs....i suppose you could get used to it but i find it really annoying.
I would definately recommend the N6600.
