The Nokia 6280 is a 3G slide phone. It's not a smartphone, but has virtually all of the high-end capabilities that normally come with a 3G smartphone, but without the Symbian operating system. The fact that it has a conventional Series 40 operating system makes the user interface fast and responsive.

3G Nokia 6280 is equipped with both a 2 megapixel and a VGA camera. This compact slider phone provides an ideal platform for 3G services such as real time video sharing and two way video calls.
It has a bright QVGA (320x240 pixels), 262,000 colour display with dedicated camera and zoom buttons. The 6280 creates a natural, user-friendly conventional camera experience by operating the photography function in a horizontal landscape mode.
Photos and videos taken with the Nokia 6280 can be viewed directly on the screen and then shared with others via MMS, email or directly printed to compatible printers. Pictures and videos can be conveniently stored on the Nokia 6280's miniSD memory card.

Music is catered for with a music player for MP3 tracks and Visual Radio. Sound output is in stereo, and a stereo headset is supplied. The phone comes with 74 Mbytes of built-in memory plus an expandable memory card - ideal for storing music and video. The 6280 also has an interesting and novel feature - video ringtones!
Connectivity is fully supported, with Bluetooth, USB 2.0 and infra-red, as well as super-fast internet access via EDGE or 3G, supporting download speeds of up to 384 kbps, and upload speeds of 128 kbps. Battery life is very good for a 3G phone.
The
Nokia 6280 is potentially one of the best 3G phones currently available. However, it is unreliable and there have been a variety of faults reported - from memory card faults, to shutting down and even total failure. It's a shame, but we really can't recommend the 6280.
The screen and display is superb, both the design and the functionality of the phone are excellent, but after four days of use it turned itself off and won't switch back on.
