After reading all reviews from this site and many other sites. I thought the Nokia 6102 is the good one. However, it turned out a pretty bad phone. I'm very disappointed.I signed up 2 year contract - Family plan with Cingular, a month and one week ago. Grabbed 3 phones.My phone:Pros: just because I frustrated and experienced all the bad things so my mind went blank with the pros. Well, actually there are some things such camera, PC connectivity, speakerphone, dual screen, games but I'm not a fancy type of guys so I don't need to features much.Cons:+ No setting for the backlight, dim out after 15 seconds. Only be able to set permanent ON when CHARGING, that's ridiculous.+ There is delay after pressing Menu key+ Low memory+ Very few ringtones, themes (but I need only 3)+ Background noises, static is way over the exceptable level.+ Poor reception+ Connection drops frequentlyThe top 4 of the cons, I don't care much, I can deal with it while the last 3 are killing me. Anytime I use the phone, I just want to smash it with my hammer.And how can I conclude it was bad?I borrowed the 2-year old Nokia 6200 alike (not a flipfone) from my coworker, swapped the simcard, this old phone performed 10x or even 20x better than my 6102.I've lived in Andover, MA - Nashua, NH areaI tested while on the Seales Rd, the 6102 showed no network coverage, while the old phone worked with no problem.Background noise (static) occurs everytime on the 6102 while the old one is just fine (I tested on every street).In some places, the 6102 shows no reception while the old one indicates 2 or 3 bar.I've tried my other phones (same model 6102), it works a little better but still far behind the old Nokia.First, I thought it was my 6102 problem, it could be a defective unit but tried twice, now I think it is the whole Nokia 6102 series problem. While a lot of people have graded it with very high star, I am very disappointed.I'm thinking buying a Motorola RAZR V3 or even buy back the old Nokia that I tested with from my cowoker. Just can't stand with that little crappy for 2 years. My concern right now is the RAZR is better than the old Nokia or not? Sign!
