The 3230. Looks very unlike other Nokias and is very good to look at! Symbian by the way. And 1.3 mega pixel camera too.

yeah, cool specs but that's something that confuses me. The specs are identical to the nokia 6630 ! Why would nokia do such a dumb thing ?

i think its kind of clever marketing, you may like the features of a phone but not the looks so make a few versions of the same phone with different looks and they appeal to different people. se kind of did it with the t610/630 and z600

I feel the 3230 is one of the better looking nokia phones in recent times. Although sometimes i think it looks like a remote control...

or like the 7610 and the 6670.

anyway when i first saw the 3230 i thought it was a slider but later realised it was a brick.... i mean bar

ps, the specs arn't exactly the same as 6630 as 3230 doesnt have 3g, hence is cheaper.

I´m convinced Nokia means rehash in Finnish..
I am also of the opinion that the designers of the current Nokia lineup should be taken outside and shot...
..with a paintball gun, until they promised not to do mind altering drugs while at work.

@ThreeX: Well spoken. Methinks the only good-looking Nokia ever was the 6610. Anybody agree?

Well, you ought to see in my signature that i am not anti-Nokia on pure principal, and also spot at which point in time i lost interest in their designs..
Actually i think the 6100 is pretty nice too, display quality doesn´t really knock you out, but still.. The 6600 is acceptable as well, but the current lineup is a joke design-wise..

Personally, I think the design team need to be sacked to a man, and a new team put together. Preferably poached from SE or Moto or even Sagem! :D
