Advice on Nokia mobile please
Hi,
I would appreciate some opinions. I have an O2 X2 phone which i hate (crap buttons and crap battery life) and am coming up to the end of my contract next month. I use about 50 texts a month and a few calls. My husband is on Vodafone and it costs me quite a bit to call him at the moment when he works away. Its mostly evenings (use work phone during the day). I want a good diary function as my old organiser is getting close to giving up and I can't afford to replace it.
I have seen the deals on the bootsphones websites and the 1000 off peak vodafone minutes (same network and landlines) with 250 texts for £16 a month looks good. I don't mind changing phone number.
But I can't decide which phone to get, please help
Choice A has £150 of boots points after 7 months

The 6230i, is a nice little phone. It has everything you need without being too fancy.
The Nokia 6170 has been out a while now and is nothing special.
Out of the two phones i'd pick the 6230i.0 -
I agree with jf2404, the 6230i is a quality phone.0
