New member
so i'm looking for a fun phone that will keep me interested for a while and i'm thinking about either the 6682 or the SDA. Anyone have any opinions. I want a phone that I can do A LOT with so I don't get bored. thanks for any opinions!
 
I have an SDA and just ordered the 6682 Nokia. I'm pretty sure they'll both have their strong points.
As a phone UI... I've always found the Nokia hard to beat though.
 
I think Samsung and Moto UI are pretty boring, even though I still love Motos (dont like samsung). Better off going with Sony Ericsson's or Nokia's if you want something to keep you company . With that said I recommend one of the following: Nokia 6280, SE K750i, or SE w810i
 
www.nokiausa.com - no contract - unlocked $299.00 Free Shipping - 2 day.

Probably some better prices around but I found it was less than most of the sites I usually buy from.
 
Here's a quick comparison and consider that I've only had the 6682 one day.

6682 - I think you'll find pretty quickly that it has an internal memory issue and be searching these forums for the answer to the problem. The answer is -it doesn't have enough internal memory and you'll need to close out open applications in order to take a picture even when it appears to have plenty of space and you're storing everything on the mmc. I found this problem after buying the phone... so much for my research ability.

The 6682 feels much more phone like when you put it against your head to make a call. The SDA didn't have that feel and I normaly searched for the sweet spot where the audio came through on the device.

On the RF side, the Nokia appears to be better. I'm in a 1 bar area and the SDA would drop calls and break up, so far the 6682 has been more stable but time will tell.

The overall feel of the keys, joystick and phone are better on the nokia although the camera cover does feel cheap and a litte sloppy. It's pretty typical nokia plastic.

I prefer the email app in the nokia series 60 over the SDA. There are two reasons but its still a little early to tell. One reason is that I can tell the phone what hours I want it to retrieve the email and with the SDA I had to change the profile each night. I never looked into add on apps or whether there was a solution to the SDA email retrieval hours. I also prefer the format of the email in the Nokia over the SDA but they are close.

Web browsing seems faster on the Nokia but I need to figure out how to save a password.. so far its making me re-enter it each time. The SDA seemed to save it automatically until I cleared the cache.

I think the battery life will be better with the Nokia.

That's it for now... I might come back and edit when I get more time.

I'm already thinking about my next phone.
 
Thanks!

So I ordered a supposedly unlocked 6682 and it was locked.
.

The one thing i noticed is that the camera slider on the back feels like crap. the phone feels so solid as a whole but that slider is pretty bad. Once i get my money back, I'm not sure what I should do. I really need something that will keep my attention. can anybody think of anything 300 bucks and under that would fit the bill?
