Nokia 6150 review

Network and connections

The 6150 model, introduced by Nokia in 1998, did not achieve particular success, given that the previous 3210 and 3310 models were very popular and also had a greater number of built-in resources. Take for example the connections available: this phone is a simple Dual Band (900 and 1800 Mhz the supported GSM networks), which adds to these two bands only the IrDa connection, not even including the Wap connection which was already present on some previous models.

Design and features

A first step toward lightening the body, the Nokia 6150 comes in at a weight of 141 grams. It has a height of 129 millimeters, a width of 47 mm and a depth of 28 mm, for a total volume of 130 cc. The design is a single body with interchangeable covers as is the case in less recent models. The built-in display has a low resolution, is monochrome with 5 lines of text. Included is a 900 mAh lithium battery with a standby life of 250 hours and talk time of up to 4 hours and 30 minutes.

Main functions

Phonebook for 150 contacts and storage of 10 dialed calls, the most recent, 10 missed and received calls make up the phone's built-in memory. Among the main functions it also includes a calendar, an image editor and the ability to send messages with images. Alarm clock and clock round out a very modest picture. The ringtones number 35, all monophonic. Worth noting is the ability to enable vibration during charging.

Entertainment and multimedia

Entertainment resources are also scarce. The three built-in games offer a decent selection. Without the Wap connection there is no opportunity to download new games, and moreover there is no mention of Java support either. Messaging allows for sending and receiving SMS but without the T9 predictive text software. Music and photo resources are absent.
