All About Symbian reviews the Nokia 6260 and writes, “According to TaskSpy, a neat free app that gives all sorts of details about what’s going on on the phone, the 6260 uses a ARM 1040 processor running at 123MHz. Whatever, it is plenty fast enough, there is never any lag in opening applications, searching contacts is instantaneous and even rendering web pages is pretty nippy. Note that the web browser is Nokia’s own, and not Opera as on the 6600. As far as video playback performance goes, the PC based conversion software does a good job, I was able to playback some recorded TV shows without any dropped frames, and the file size for an hour long show, shrunk from 577mb to a much more manageable 22mb on the phone.”

iMobile reviews the Nokia 6260 and writes, “The Nokia 6260 uses one of the most familiar operating systems in Nokia phones – Symbian 7.0s. Being a Series 60 Second Edition device, the user interface is very similar to handsets such as the 7610, and 6600. Users of these devices, or even First Edition Series 60 devices will have no problems making the move to the second edition, the basic functionality is the same. The 6260 uses a 65,536 colour TFT LCD @ 176 x 208 pixels, the largest size found mass market on mobile handsets these days. Also related to the display is some way is the rotating ability of the Nokia 6260. ”

InfoSync reviews the Nokia 6260 and writes, “The 6260 opens to reveal a staggeringly bright and generally excellent display as the centerpiece of the upper half, below which is placed a navigational array consisting of a five-way navigational pad, flanked by two soft buttons as well as the typical buttons for calling up the menu, input options and erasing text. Meanwhile, the lower half simply contains a standard-fare numerical keypad with call/hang up buttons. ”

GSMArena reviews the Nokia 6260 and writes, “Nokia has no replaceable covers but still I have some objections against the construction. The battery cover is moving, but that’s a detail that you probably won’t notice in normal usage. There is also a looseness, allowing the cover to move to sides in closed position. With flip phones of a normal size, you wouldn’t even recognize it, but Nokia 6260 is above the average, so the move is noticeable. That’s why you can also hear a soft creak when you press the phone. The cover has three positions for opening: two positions in dead centers and the third is right in the middle while both parts of the phone are perpendicular. Only in this position there is a noticeable looseness that causes the display to move by itself forward and backward almost by ten degrees. An important fact is that this position is default for turning the display before shooting. The mobile is supposed to be held as a camcorder and the shaking display is not satisfactory. The construction disappointed me a bit.”
