After reading a review of the phone in a mobile magazine, and from looking at peoples reviews of them on the net I reckon that it is one of the best phones of the year.

Only problem with it really is that it cannot be unlocked at the moment and the 3 version is totally ruined by the restrictions that 3 placed on it.

Good choice, though the 6680 is supposed to be just as good if not better.

The fella in the shop where i had my phone unlocked today even said that the software to unlock that model isnt even out yet.

3 phoned me up yesterday trying to sell me one on another contract .....no chance, the thing is when i said about my reception going downhill he said it was my handset, which os total utter rubbish.

The 6680, to be honest, is'nt really better than the 6630.

All thats changed is the look (hardly), the flash on the camera, and the front facing camera. But in tests its shown that the 6630 is more than twice as powerfull (it tests things like CPU speed and grahpics ability etc like framerates), and even the 7610/6670 beats it slightly in the above mentioned tests, so not all its cracked up to be.

Yup, it certainly does.

Info I based it on is here:

http://www.mobile-review.com/review/nokia-6680-en.shtml

Look at the last table at the bottom, and on the JB2 row, which is for JBenchmark 2 (everyone remember that? The Java program to compare your phones speed and graphics to others?).

The 6630 got a whopping 246, the 7610/6670 got 165, and the 6680 got a measly 148.
