Nokia 6820 Cell Phone



nokia_6820.jpg'Compatible with AT&T cell phone service, the Nokia 6820 is one of Nokia's series of phones featuring a cleverly-designed flip-open QWERTY keyboard, intended to provide quicker and easier text input. When the keyboard is in use, the 6820's high-resolution 128 x 128-pixel, 4,096 color screen automatically rotates from a vertical to a horizontal orientation for easier viewing. There are also a bunch of other great features with this phone, including a digital CIF camera and video recorder, Bluetooth infrared data transfer, voice dialing, mobile Internet connectivity, high-speed data transmission, and more.

Used simply as a phone, the 6820 features a 4-way joystick for easy navigation to a variety of calling features, including voice dialing for up to 10 numbers, voice commands for up to 9 items, integrated handsfree speakerphone, and the ability to record and send memos, conversations, and sound clips (up to 90 seconds). You'll also get the usual array of polyphonic ring tones, calling modes (including vibrate) and much more. Nokia also supports TTY/TDD (Telecommunication Device for the Deaf), and hearing aid support for the Nokia LPS-3 Loopset, (adapter and Loopset sold separately).'

Geek.com reviews the Nokia 6820 camera phone and writes - 'The size of the 6820 made it comfortable in the hand, and easy and pleasant to carry. The keyboard was fairly easy to master since all of the keys were lined up as they would be on a keyboard. It was actually quite odd for me at first, because you find yourself typing with your thumbs, but you could do it blindfolded after a while.

The features on the phone that I toyed around with included text messaging, taking photos and short videos, and voice recording. The features are what truly sets the Nokia 6820 apart from other phones. The keyboard is easy to operate, allows you to get texts out at record speeds, and you can even text in the dark because there is a built-in LED.

I am an avid text messager, and this phone made texting unbelievably easy. Anyone could master it. I say "master" because more often than not when I'm texting I find myself deleting the text or misspelling it. With the Nokia 6820 you don't have to delete or misspell; you have the letters separate (not ABC, DEF, GHI, etc.), and therefore it is on a higher level than other phones.'

InfoSyncWorld reviews the Nokia 6820 and writes - 'With its integrated QWERTY keyboard, the Nokia 6820 is obviously aimed at heavy SMS users. This keyboard functions well in use, and the handset is generally well-equipped with regard to features. Its screen and digital camera are not top notch, however, compared with other current handsets. Also, the QWERTY keyboard may have rendered the price tag of the 6820 somewhat higher than most people are prepared to cough up - particularly when comparing with other similarly featured handsets.
