Nokia 3250

After you read this post, you might realised that I am actually a mobile phone lover. I love reading reviews of phones n then discuss about them online. Some friends even asked for my advice when they are going to buy phones. They would ask me which models to buy n what features that phone has. But there's no perfect phones, so sometimes, it's hard to decide what you want. For myself, I bought Nokia 3230 on 31st Jan 2006. It's quite a nice phone despite many users complained that it's slow, restart frequent, visible screen flicker. The slow interface n flickering screen does not bother me, but the restart problem is getting on my nerve. But maybe because my wife does not like me to change phone frequently, so I set my tolerance level higher this time. Sometimes, it's not my fault to change phone frequent, if the phone has so many problems, how are you going to use it n accept it. The phones it bought are not expensive n I always make it a point to wait till my contract ending to upgrade my handset. Hopefully I can hold on to this N3230 for more than 1 year.
