(More customer reviews)Following the 2004 flagship candy bar 6230 and the subsequent 6230i, the Nokia 6233 boasts a number of step-up features over its two predecessors.
Screen resolution is superb at 320 x 240 pixels, although the clock (in standby mode)/ battery / reception indicators could've been larger. The built-in 2 MP camera is nothing like a real 2 MP camera or those you would find on a 2 MP Sony Ericsson phone, but it's quality is comparable to the same built-in digital camera you'll find on the Nokia N-70, minus the LED flash. Also, the 6233 allows unlimited (depending on the size of your MicroSD of course) video recording in VGA resolution, which is far better than what most phones released in 2006 can offer.
The active standby feature on the 6233 is something one would find on Nokia smartphones like the 6680 or the N-series.
The music player has improved a little since 6230 and 6230i, with an actually functional equalizer although the sound output level is way too weak for my liking. One should be careful when switching from digital music playback to radio listening as the sound output level of the built-in radio is a few times higher than the music player output.
SMS on 6233 is a breeze with it's big keys, and delivery reports are now being stored separately in a different folder (nokia used to put them in the inbox).
The phone is a little bigger than a standard nokia candy bar, probably because of its quadband capabilities (900/1800/1900/UMTS2100 for Malaysian models) and the big rechargeable battery BP-6M (it's the same battery Nokia fit into their most recent communicator the Nokia 9300i)that fits snugly into its back.
Recommended for 6230 and 6230i fans.
