Minus of Nokia 6310i: battery
Nokia 6310i is without a doubt one of the most attractive mobiles currently offered by Nokia. Sleek, slender, and stylish are just three words I would use to describe Nokia 6310i. The handset of Nokia 6310i measures about five inches and has a slightly raised screen and speaker. The main screen of Nokia 6310i is about one inch in depth and one and a half inches in width.
Nokia 6310i feels good in your hand - you're actually holding on to something; still, Nokia 6310i is really light. Even people with big fingers can handle Nokia 6310i easily. The basic handset for Nokia 6310i is available with three standard versions – a black base with a golden screen frame (!!!); a bronze base with a silver screen frame; and a sort of metallic-grey base with a silver frame. I went for the black and gold option, which I think suits Nokia 6310i the best.
The keyboard of Nokia 6310i is flat and functional; the keys are arranged in a rather conventional way, which, honestly, I prefer to these fancy keypads that are in use nowadays. There are the standard green and red phone buttons on Nokia 6310i, an up/down-cursor for scrolling through the menu's options and then there are left/right menu keys to operate each of Nokia 6310i's functions. The on/off switch on Nokia 6310i is located conveniently on top of the handset and the volume control of Nokia 6310i is on the side of the phone.
The battery of Nokia 6310i is slim and surprisingly light (Nokia 6310i weighs including its battery only 111 gram at an overall size of Nokia 6310i of 129 x 47 x 17 mm) – it slides on and off the back of Nokia 6310i with perfect ease. In terms of durability, Nokia 6310i is the sort of phone that makes you want to take care of it. It is not built like a brick, but Nokia 6310i is relatively capable of surviving knocks and bumps. All together, the battery life of Nokia 6310i is just incredible (up to 7 days on Stand-by!); the connectivity is excellent, due to Bluetooth and IR. You can connect Nokia 6310i to a PC very easily and start synchronizing your life.
Nokia 6310i, of course, has got all the standard features one can think of; but it also provides interesting new features that I've never heard about.
Nokia 6310i's profiles can be adjusted in many ways, and Nokia 6310i can save up to nine new ringing tones; 35 ringing tones are already installed on Nokia 6310i.
Nokia 6310i vibrates, too, when required.
The games on Nokia 6310i aren't bad. Guess which game is on? Yup, snake II! However, there's also space impact, bumper (pinball - which is quite good) and racket.
Nokia 6310i actually allows you to download further games, which is a good option.
Furthermore, Nokia 6310i includes alarm /clock & time / phone /call /tone /accessory /GPRS / Security settings...
Nokia 6310i is a Tri Band device; it must be, since such a great-looking phone should be showed off all over the world!
