Tried just about every high-end phone (aside from an iPhone) and they all didn't last very long. This one is solid as a rock, has a decent array of features and takes much abuse yet keeps on ticking. Menus are quick, stuff is easy to fine and, better yet, it even takes phone calls! I walked into the shop and asked what phone all the tradies were buying. That was good enough for me.

Nokia 6300

This one is Free, unbranded and unlocked, and not tied up to any service provider or plan.

Yeah. I always use a low features, fast and cheap phone. The current one is some Nokia which has worked well for a good 2-3 years.

Best phone ever, tbh, and I don't even have any games on it.

Mine is similar to BB's phone. I lost my one in a Parisian taxi, so when I got to Exeter I brought one, the guy said it was a bog standard Nokia. You beauty I'll take it.

Yes, it reads QR codes.
Its pretty basic for a Japanese phone. I used to have one that played TV, but I wanted something lighter and didn't watch TV so.....

Oh, it also has a universal remote function. Great for pranking while at a friends house.

Doesnt the N95 do that? Sure mines got some crappy scanner thing that reads absolutely nothing bar test barcodes online. Not found a use for it yet. Likewise the GPS on it, just got no need.

Always good to have a top of the range phone and use none of the features on it.

Had to find the instruction book to find out what it was actually called. Mine's silver, with obligatory crack in the screen.
