Nokia 6120 Classic deals & review

The Nokia 6120 is a very capable smart phone running on the S60 platform, sitting very near the top of the pile when it comes to affordable mid range phones. The S60 platform allows the 6120 to run multiple applications at the same time, remaining extremely quick (which surprised us slightly) when flicking between open windows and applications. Although the screen of the Nokia 6210 is quite small in comparison to other smart phones such as the iPhone, its screen switching mode allows the user to change to wide screen mode meaning the user can zoom and hone in to any section of a web page or large document being viewed

With a price tag as low as it is, it´s no surprise it does not have the capabilities of the bigger smart phones, but its simplicity, speed and ease of use more than make up for this with no software bugs or stalling. Although the 2MP camera leaves a bit to be desired, the picture quality indoors isn´t too good, outside the definition and clarity improve but you would not buy this phone if you required excellent picture quality, rather investing more money in a handset like the Pixon or the KC910i Renoir.
