Nokia 6265i
Average Ratings
Thumbs up for 6265i
I have had the best luck with Nokia phones and this one is the best so far.
Pros: better coverage and reception compared to other makes/models(ACS carrier in Alaska), slide design, love the Nokia Layout/format, customizable, camera is decent, radio, large screen, easy to work on, expandable memory
Cons: fragile screen, very thick phone, I've had two ringers go belly up on me(although i use the speaker a lot).
Awesome Phone!!!
I work for metro PCS main corporate in the DFW region so I work with phones all the time. I can pretty much tell you what phone is worth it and what phone is not. I have owned different types of phones in the past but nothing has come close to the one I own now.
The Nokia 6265i is a great phone to own! The phone has many features which happens to get many people's attention. Being a slider phone it stands out from others.
The phone has a big screen which happens to be very clear. It has a 2 megapixel camera that takes great pictures. It's Bluetooth compatible...so you're able to share ring tones, pictures, and videos through the air without ever having to purchase any. The ring tones are super LOUD, which Nokia phones happen to be good at. The buttons make texting and dialing very comfortable. It has a MP3 player and a miniSD slot for extra storage. It has a very handy organizer that I happen to use often.
The Nokia manufactures make their products very durable and make the battery very long lasting!!! Even though metro PCS does not carry this phone any longer, I still would encourage you to get it any way you can. I love this phone and I'm pretty sure you would too!
Nice Phone / Camera
Great reception.
Very clear and colorful pics.
Good speaker phone.
Awesome display.
Easy to use.
4 yr old granddaughter can make calls and take pics with no problem.
Would like to hear radio thru bluetooth but not possible, as wired headset acts as antenna. Thus by-passing bluetooth capabilities. Disappointed it's been discontinued at US Cellular.

Best None PDA Phone!
I have owned the nokia 6265i for only 3 days, but I love it already. I also have an MDA (T-mobile) so I wasn't expecting a lot from a cel phone. I only bought this phone because I wanted a phone with a good camera and I was thinking of getting a pda phone that doesn't have one. Boy was I surprised!
Pros:
-Uses a mini sd card (plenty of storage)
-Plays mp3s and you can use them as ring tones
-2MP camera
-You can listen to your mp3s through your bluetooth even if it's not a stereo headset!
-Has an fm radio (you need stereo headsets or a plugin earpiece to use this feature)
-Works with opera mini!!! You can browse the real web with this free application (Not bad for $5 metro pcs internet!)
-Screen is nice sized and crystal clear
Cons:
-I had a hard time finding a good case because of the way it slides up. I like leather cases not the ones that just clips the phone in. The case I bought is good but the screen protector blocks the keypad when you slide it open.
-Other than that nothing yet.
I would definitely recommend this phone. Go get it.
You guys have it almost right
I agree with pretty much everthing everyone is saying both on positives, and negatives. . .but you have one negative wrong. You are NOT limited to the few themes loaded on by default. With about 5 minutes of effort looking at the 6265 Nokia website, I found the series 40 theme software for free download. With it, you can create your own themes for your 6265.

You may also be interested to know that you can also download a free SDK to make whatever applications for your phone you wish. Just food for thought.
Great Camera Phone
I just love this phone because it is a great camera phone, but also because it's a slider phone which many people still don't have. The 2 Megapixel camera will give amazing photos that go along with its 200+K resolution. Battery life is amazing and there's always that extra storage card for those that want to use it as an Mp3 player. Overall it's one of the best phones out for U.S. Cellular and is a better buy than the Kyocera Slider Remix.
A+ Phone
This is a great phone. I use it with Metro PCS.
Pros
*Big Screen
*Crystal Clear Photos
*MP3 Player is super!
*Bluetooth capability
*FM Radio
*Games are better than those on any phone I've ever had.
Cons
*Small charging port. Why did they make it smaller? It's too easy to break the pin that goes in it.
*Slow web but I blame Metro PCS for that. It's not the phone, it's the service.
For the review that said you can't change the list type to icon list, you can. Just go to menu and hit the button that says "options". There you can change to list, grid, etc.
READ YOUR MANUALS PEOPLE BEFORE POSTING ABOUT A CON. THE FEATURE MAY BE AVAILABLE BUT YOU JUST DIDN'T LOOK FOR IT.
