We could forgive the X6 many of its faults if it wasn’t such a pricey handset, ranging from £400 to £450 SIM-free depending on where you shop. It’s certainly got a good range of features, but the build quality is a let down and Series 60, even with the tweaks that have been applied here, still looks a bit tired. As a result we’re not sure Nokia has got its sums right on the value for money front. That said, the capacitive screen does put it leagues ahead of all of Nokia’s other touchscreen phones, bar the N900, and if you make really heavy use of the Comes With Music service it may swing the value for money pendulum back in the right direction.

Well i quite like the look of that phone but could you actually recommend it to me?

Im a student so i am not loaded with cash.

Im more interested in a music phone than anything else, i have always had Sony Ericsson, got a w910i atm but it's useless crashes every day a couple of times and gets very annoying. I have also had enough of the headphones, decent but hard to come by as im still using their own design and not a standard jack. Kinda annoying actually as i manage to break headphones more than anyone i know.

Looking into the iPhone but it's far to expensive for how few mins and texts i would get, so any thoughts atm?

if you're looking for a phone to mainly play music on, i'd go for the nokia 5530. basically the x6 without gps, 3g, capacitive screen and lessor camera.

its more than 3x cheaper and fantastic as an mp3 player

Or Nokia 5800 - it's basically the x6 without capacitive screen, lesser camera and only 8GB of memory (but you can use 16GB card instead). And 5800 has GPS/3G/3.5mm jack. Read TR's 5800 review and my comment to it.

@Kieran: if you're looking for a phone to mainly play music on, I'd continue looking at the iPhone; although you mention the expense, if you can find the funds, it's still the best music phone out there by far. I think Nokia is a bit of a spent force now.

Im very happily using the Nokia 5630 xpressmusic phone at the moment and would recommend it to everyone. Its very small and slim (112 x 46 x 12 mm) runs symbian 60 V3 so is a smartphone with the ovi store, has a proper keypad for fast one handed texting, 3.5mm headphone jack and dedicated music buttons, microSD slot, wifi that can be used with Jokiuspot (google it) so I can use it a wireless router for my Ipod Touch, and a solid 3.15mb camera with dual LED flashes that work well in low light conditions. Plus its only £159 new and simfree from Play.com

Currently my perfect phone, just need Nokia to eventually update it with a better camera, better battery ect (you know the score) worryingly tho it seems that Nokia are moving towards touchscreen phones and leaving the standard one behind! Nooooo! I cant text one handed (and anywhere near as fast) on a touchscreen!

@SRS: that's what i am currently doing, hopeing they will increase minutes and texts across each network throughout the beginning of the year, with Tesco and Vodafone offering more than O2 and Orange hopefully it will spark a tariff was even if the prices stay the same.

If i go for an iPhone i will wait till the 4th model in June

@ Kieran: a 16Gb iphone 3gs is the same price as this on pay and go and comes with 12 months free data.

personally I wouldnt get an iPhone whereas the ipod touch is the best mp3 player arround the iphone is nowhere near the best phone (you can't even send or recieve anything via bluetooth from another phone), I used to think it was pretty good but now I just think it's nothing more than an expensive toy and needs to mature in functionality a lot.

@jay: It strikes me as a bit much to say the iPod touch is the best mp3 and the iPhone fundamentally flawed. They both have major issues and It very much depends on what you prioritise as to whether one's good or not. Personally, if I were to buy a dedicated mp3 player I'd want better sound quality and a smaller device.

My wife has the 5530 which uses the same operating system. In a £100+ phone, its perfectly fine, even quite good. But, in a £400 phone, then the iphone or an Android-based phone would make more sense methinks. Symbian just hasn't caught up with the fully touch-based OS's yet.

I'd concur with the Ed when he suggests buying a separate mp3 player. The additional advantage of such being that you don't have the constant problem of rationing the use of each function in order to preserve the battery life.
