I can’t help coming away from the 3250 with the impression that someone in the Nokia design department had a good wheeze for a handset design and then kept plodding on with it even though all it seems to do is get in the way of ease of use rather a lot.
I’m not convinced that a little doubling of functions for number pad buttons wouldn’t have been a better option than all this swivelling for music control, and a side mounted camera shutter is so much easier to use than the options on this handset. I can see the advantage of being able to swivel the camera lens itself, though.
Still, I can’t complain about battery life, which is always an important factor for anyone looking for a music playing handset.Read full review
