Surprisingly Good!
When this phone first come onto the market I didn't actually think anything of it as it seemed pretty average. In the last year I have had the Nokia N95, Sony Ericsson W880i, Sony Ericsson W580i, Sony Ericsson K550i, LG Chocolate and a Samsung U600. Why have I had so many handsets??? I get bored easy!!!

Anyway, the Nokia 6300 is probably the most basic of all the phones I've had but is certainly my favourite. I don't know what but theres something about this phone that makes me want to hang onto it. It could be the simplicity itself!!!

The Nokia 6300 is packed full of the lastest technology: Camera, Bluetooth, Radio, MP3, Email, Calendar, Internet...

I use an Apple Mac so didn't know if the Nokia would be able to sync with my .mail account. But it does!!! Most Samsung & Sony Ericssons also sync with .mail.

Although it seems I have had more expensive phones, I prefer something that doesn't make a fuss and is discreet without having to pay silly money for. At under £80.00 it is certainly a good buy.

The Nokia 6300 is a good size, when I had the N95 it was always a problem with having it in my pocket.

With all the previously hansets I've always had small issues - Nokia N95: Loss Slider & Big - W880i: Poor Signal Strength - W580i: Chunky & Plastic - Samsung U600: Looks Girly - LG Chocolate: Buttons Too Sensitive.

The Perfect Phone
If you visit the Nokia Website, or your local phone shop, like me you might be completely bewildered by the current generation of mobile phones, with features that most people don't need. And then you come across this beauty, priced at a measly £70. All I needed was something to replace my 6230, which recently packed in, probably due to abuse on my part! And the 6300 fits the bill perfectly; it's small, stylish, and easy to use. The buttons, although rather small, function well, and I rarely hit the wrong key by mistake. The 2MP camera takes surprisingly decent photos which are not plagued by the graniness of many phone pictures. Overall, all of the features of the phone work as they should; other than the fancy graphics, little has changed since the iconic 3310. Finally, the casing is made mostly of metal, making it even more bulletproof than my 6230!

However, I do have two small foibles. Firstly, the weird Nokia connector on the bottom of every phone I've owned has been replaced with a headphone jack and a USB port, hence making the charger on my car kit useless and forcing me to use Bluetooth to connect to the phone, rather than simply plugging it in. Secondly, the aforementioned headphone jack is smaller than usual, so you can't just plug any old headphones in.

Nonetheless, for many people this is the perfect phone. No fuss, no unnecessary features, decently priced, incredibly stylish... what more do you want?

Excellent phone with a nice mp3 player
Some people would call this phone basic = I don't. It is one of the nicest phones I have owned. Slim and well built, it does everything I want in a phone. Don't buy it from Amazon, mind. Currys/Dixon are selling it for £79.99!
