Nokia 6120 any good?????

G N.

Have 6120, after market car kit, external aerial and USB to laptop or blue tooth.

All good. Very happy now.

Giday GN,

Paniced into getting one late last month. Just told telstra I wanted a no fuss phone with no accessories. They sent me the 6120. Seems to work ok, no better or worse than my old one.

Just a quick note: if you have big clumsy fingers [ like me ] the small buttons can be a bit annoying.

Cheers...Lionel.

Hi GN

Got one for a kid a couple of months ago ($298 off ebay) and it works very well, is more sensitive than an LG we tested side by side in the bush and is generally a good item with lots of tricks.

I don't think I will get one though because the small size of the keys makes it hard to use and the external aerial is not a true direct connection type.

I held onto my Kyocera , and if I had to jump today I would buy the Samsung.

Hi GN,

I am very happy with my 6120, it has more features than I will every use and its range is great. Being able to get emails and even high speed internet directly on the phone out in the bush is awesome - and it can be used as a modem for the laptop (just watch the data charges or get a data plan).

I have compared it side by side with LG's and other phones and I was able to make calls where no others could. Also, at some stages I was getitng reception on nextG whereas even the remaining CDMA users in our 4WD club were out of range.

While it doesn't have a direct external antennae connection, the proximity connection works really well and the end result is a better range than those with directly connected antenas.

I think this has more to do with the better sensitivity of the Nokia internal antenae and who knows how great the range could have been if it had a direct connection.

About the only drawback is the small buttons, but then it would have to be bigger (or smaller screen) and I prefer the fact I can easily slip it in my pocket.

IMHO, I would reccomend this phone over any other NextG ones on the market at the moment.

The 6120's are a good phone, we got a heap for our employees.

One had been replaced about 3 weeks from getting them and another plays up now and again....they are alot more reliable then the other brands.

We also have the Nokia E51's and they are alot better phone then the 6120.

We have car kits for all of them with external Laser brand antennas, with antennas don't use the on glass type for the car kits.

Spend the extra a get the Nokia E51.

Another vote, works well, there is something sick about having internet access when camping ;-))
I've got the force cradle and external antenna which works well, just the phone alone has often surprised me with coverage where the CDMA with full car kit never worked.

I am all htumbs and I rarely have trouble with da buttons on my 6120. The camera is good quality, it takes good video and it takes goood panoramic photo's.

Saturday night 2 weeks ago when the Patrol went on strike I used it to look to look up yellowpages.com and called a tilt tray no wuckers.

I can use speaker phone while driving if someone calls me. It's all good.
