When we talk about 3G phones, big and bulky images crop up in front of our eyes. But Nokia 6280, even after being a 3G enabled device, comes through as a fairly light and compact phone. Nokia sure has not compromised on its motives of giving its customers contemporary mobiles - a blend of form and functionalities, still how did it manage to do so?
Well, to begin with, the mind behind the making of Nokia 6280 came up with a slider design. Which meant that the front fascia had a large display, with basic minimum buttons, and while the Nokia 6280 was opened, it revealed a well etched keypad. The only problem with the slider being, that at times it is too loose to hold the grip. The display of 262K colour screen is a real feast to the eyes. Specially when the pictures are seen through it. Also, the screen acts like a real boon for the new Series 40 user interface. Cute, colourful icons dominate the screen, making things easier even for a novice.Aesthetically Nokia 6280 looks much smarter than any phone we have seen recently. The handset comes in black and silver colour, with a contrasting chrome 5-way navigational pad. Controls and keypad are typical of Nokia – and that's what makes it special. There is a volume control on the right hand side of the unit and a PTT (Push To Talk) button on the other. Also, there is a dedicated camera buttons for convenient photography experience.
Talking about photography, Nokia 6280 comes with a 2 Megapixels camera. The camera lacks auto focus but comes with many options for image settings with Grayscale, Sepia and Negative effects. One can also take interesting videos, but the output might not be really impressive, as observed by many. There is another VGA camera for video calling. Like any other competent 3G device, Nokia 6280 is also enabled with many other features. These include Mp3 player, tri-band network, Bluetooth, email, sms, Java, lifestyle features and many more. The Nokia 6280 offers a battery of 5 hours of talktime.
