Love my new 6288 but coming from an LGU8180 find the messaging a little bit less user friendly. I am happy in all regards except: 1 - The back light turns off after 8 seconds which can get annoying and I cannot find any options to extend that, even playing with sleep modes and power savers (if im missing something please tell me) 2 - Its fairly annoying to have to keep the headset plugged in to listen to the radio even when you are listening to it on loud speaker. 3 - When playing music, the sound is good but doesnt go up loud enough. The PC software is simple and much less touchy than any other ive had and bluetooth is a breeze. I plan to get a cover as Ive been warned that the screen is easily broken. I have no comments about battery life because I put my phone on charge every night before bed but it seems to be very good for me. I would reccomend this phone to anyone bearing in mind that if you want the highest quality camera and mp3 player money can buy then you need to buy them as seperate items. A phone is meant to send messages and manange calls - everything else is an extra.

Think twice (Disappointed, Australia)

I bought this phone 6 months ago. The first one they gave me had dodgy keys & they swapped it. This one started playing up 2 months ago. When I am on a call or typing a message it just resets itself. It turns off then on again. & looses what ever it was I was doing.

I took it to get it fixed but won't get it back for 4 weeks! I found this site trying to see if anyone else was having this problem. Unfortunately I am locked into a contract. But I am considering paying it out & just buying a phone outright.

Nokias aren't as great as they used to be.

One word to describe this phone- IT IS THE BOMB! Got it after my N70 angered me with its lagg to the extend that I threw it into a pool. So now, a simple review on the 6288. The pros: -High quality display with huge screen.(Easily the best in the market) -Fairly good battery, lasted me 5 days of messagings and a couple of calls. -Good slide mechanism with easy assisting spring, lets you open the phone easily. -Reasonable music player, no creeks at highest volume.(Althought lacks bass compared to various walkman phones) -Very clear camera, on par with the k750i with only the lack of auto-focus in the way. -Comfortable keypad, smooth touch and easy to press with mere resistance. -Came with a 512mb memory card, now who can resist that! -Easy user-interface of menue, not new to Nokia fans. -Symbian S40 loaded, so theres no lags even when you want it! The cons: -Backlighting duration only of a mere 8-10 seconds. -Awkward battery backcover, took me a sledgehammer to open it. -Glossy material used on body, prone to fingerprints(But its scratch-free!) -Keypad number 1,2,3 too close to screen- hard to press for people with large thumbs.(Nokia didn't learn from 6280 and N80 :/) -Camera no auto-focus.(Alright I am being a little picky here) -Gallery too complicated for me.(Customizable) -Ringtone and keypad tone too too too soft. Alright these are basically all the goods and bads about the Nokia 6288 hope you like it, for I sure enjoyed it.(Far from the N70 an N80)

AVOID (MAJOR, ANGRY TOWN)

Nokia 6288 IS NO DIFFERENT FROM the 6280. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE IT HAS RUINED MY LIFE. I AM TALKING TO THREE CUST SERVICES 24/7. Nokia HAVE LOST THEIR QUALITY. BATTERY LFE IS 1 DAY, CAMERA IS OF POOR QUALITY & PHONE KEEPS FREEZING! I AM VER HAPPY WITH MY Sony ERIKSSON K800I. BRILLIANT PHONE!
