Default Nokia 6120 classic edition

Hi all, picked up one of these on the $20 plan, not a bad little unit.....the only thing I could fault with it is I can't get the fonts any bigger than they are, but thats ok, I've always got my glasses.

plenty of memory in the little bugger with 35mg internal and also comes with a 512mg micro sdcard in the box, good quality stills and video camera.

The missus is spewin but, she reckons the picture quality is much better than the moto razor she got a few months back.

anyone else have one of these?

Optus is offloading these currently on lower plans. Its the first phone they offer, so I'd say they have heaps of excess stock.
If you are happy with this somewhat limited phone, I'd say you could probably drive a bargain and get some sort of bluetooth handsfree kit thrown in.

Won't hurt to try

Yes it will work with a 8G card but it does slow the phone down a bit.

Actually Optus (and Vodafone) have the 6121 (they also do have the 6120 but have just recently taken that off their official sales charts from their company owned stores and web store), the main difference between the 6120 AND 6121 is radio chipset tuners installed.

6120
UMTS 2100 (Telstra 3G, Vodafone 3G, Optus 3G and Three 3G)
UMTS 850 (Telstra NextG and soon Three 3G Regional Roaming)

6121
UMTS 2100 (Telstra 3G, Vodafone 3G, Optus 3G and Three 3G)
UMTS 900 (Optus 3G Regional and Rural 3G and Vodafone Regional 3G)

In terms of GSM performance, bah its virtually line ball between Optus GSM and Telstra GSM each going to 96.5% population coverage, but if there is one advantage, Telstra have EDGE for mobile internet connection Optus only offer GPRS 9both 6121 and 6120 offer EDGE and GPRS for GSM mobile internet connection)

Three offer 96% Telstra GSM population coverage (yes there are some Telstra GSM coverage regions that Three Mobile customers dont get like in regional WA, regional NT and regional Tasmiania).

Vodafone GSM is well behind at just 94% population coverage, but that cazn be expanded to 06% provided your an post paid account customer with Telstra national GSM roaming activated, and even then its just in regional VIC and TASMINAIA only.

As for the 6120/6121, its a decent mid range 3G/3.5Gwith HSDPA/EDGE/GPRS handset, but really its just another in a long line of Nokia handsets, either your a fan of Nokia or your are not a fan, personally (yep it had to happen), I'm no fan of Nokia, that said, for the majority of people out there this handset will do the job the user asks it to do.

dan I am pretty sure the 6120 runs on series 40 operating system.
The N95 runs on series60 which is more of a smartphone operating system where users can install specific S60 apps (.sis files)
They do look similar, but under the hood....
