Review: Nokia 6030
Phone rating: 
The Nokia 6030 is a non-camera phone with a smart appearance but limited functionality for the price.
On the positive side, this is a good-looking phone, with an appearance more like a top-end business phone. The keypad is well designed and functional, with a nice 4-way scroll key, and configurable right and left soft keys. The keypad does suffer a little from Nokia's habit of making keypads "cool", but it's perfectly functional. All of the basics are here, plus a couple of extras like the FM radio and integrated handsfree speaker. The display has 65k colours and is better than many of its competitors.
On the negative side, the 6030 seems to be rather pricey for what you get. For the same money you might have expected some decent connectivity (the 6030 has none - not even cable or infra-red), triband and even a camera. The 6030 has none of these features. It's not even that lightweight, considering that it has so little functionality. However, if you're a Nokia fan looking for a phone that costs less than £100 and doesn't have a camera, then this is as good a choice as any.
