Budget Nokia phones and Data Synchronization

Posted On: Thu, 22/09/2005 - 12:14 by Alex

We have recently become aware of the fact that a number of Nokia phones which we've reviewed (Nokia 1600, 6030) do not in fact support data connectivity. This means a few things:

1. No calendar/contact synchronization with outlook via PC Suite.
2. The only method of acquiring new software/ringtones is via GRPS / WAP.

Therefore, if you do indeed have a windows computer compatible with PC Suite, and use outlook or use multiple java applications, we strongly recommend that you puchase the Nokia 3120 (pictured right) rather than the Nokia 1600 or 6030. This is the last released budget phone which implements PC Suite connectivity.

Please also be aware that you will need a data cable (not included in the box): the Nokia 3120 is fortunately compatible with two - The DKU-5 and the CA-42.

The other obvious alternative is to skip Nokia phones altogether...
