Hello
i've made a Nokia 6680 review in dutch.

You can check it here
If you click on Foto-gallerij, you can see some photo's of the 6680.

Still eager to know the main differnces between it and the knight 6630 🙄
danke!

N/A wrote:The main difference is the appearance, the two cameras in the 6680 (the back-side camera with white LED flash). From a software point of view, the main visible difference is the "active" standby screen. Nothing else, really.

Side-by-side comparison: http://www.nokia.com/phones/comparephones/compare_results.jsp?location=EMEA&language=EN&pageaction=COMP&phone=6680&phone=6630

IMHO it aint worth getting it if you have the 6630 and want to upgrade....
has same CPU and RAM....most important in an upgrade of a cell phone...

i juz change my 6630 to 6680. some apps doesn't seems to work on 6680. like de smartmovie 2.47.it works on 6630 but not 6680. another difference is de phone speaker ,6630's mono but 6680's stereo. i would prefer 6630 cause 6680 abit slower than 6630.

Here is Translated Version

General
The first Nokia with 2 cameras have firsted see the light. The Nokia 6680 are the first UMTS tel. from Nokia-stal with 1.3 megapixel camera and a camera for video telephony. Furthermore a baffle with its 262.000 colours must catch the eye. We have been possible test him in advance just as. We must, however, say that we with a productionproduction production model do have, consequently must be taken into account there possible software - and/or hardware errors.

Construction
On the first visibility the toestel seems large and with its 133 grammes it can be called also not light. Toch the toestel is not larger than for example the Nokia 7610, but by the rectangular form that illusion is aroused. If you take the toestel permanently, it leaves behind a firm impression. Also the back, which protects the camera by schuifsysteem, seems us, however, firm. Here you, however, this component krasjes has the disadvantage that makes on the camera. Fortunately the lens remains saved. When you open the schuifsysteem, the camera is activated. It is striking that the camera is also activated when the toetsenblokkering stand up. We here have the first softwarefout discovered?

Another blikvanger is also the second camera which above on the toestel stands. This camera can become used for video telephony or to take a self-portrait. The toestel further also uses of lichtsensor. If obscurity is keyboard reduction contracts, at normal lichtomstandigheden it stays away. At the right-hand side are there place foresee for RS-MMC a card. This toestel supports to changing MMC cards without you the toestel must turn off. MMC the card is protected by firm klepje, as a result of which it will not open therefore accidentally. Above RS-MMC card supplies retrieve we to/bud. This bud seems our placed better than these of the Nokia 7610, where he on top of state. The upper part of the Nokia 6680 has been reserved for the luidspreker. A gaatje finds you where you can support the toestel, using houwtouw. To the linkerzijde you can retrieve the bud where you can the speech system activate, for voice dialing. The headstock pop-Port poort is itself below, beside the entrance to load the toestel. The they side of the toestel contains gechromeerde pieces. Krassen are consequently inevitable. The use of draagzakje can limit the krassen however.

Ease of use
Nokia also these use the Symbian control system. 6680 Is however faster than predecessors are. Menus open or to close goes very go smoothly. The photograph, which has nevertheless easily a scope of 200 up to 400 kb, charges enormously fast. Beside the race for the menu, standard at the serials 60 toestellen, you can opt also for a list menu. Like the toestel has already rather quoted a baffle that 262.144 colours can reflect. The difference with 65.536 colour baffle is certainly noticeable. The baffle is very beautiful, still net something improves then that of the Nokia 7610. Characterising to Symbian the use of topics is, what is not lacking at this tel. therefore also. Nicely for your toestel from time to time with a another kleurtje to provide.

Beside the 2 selection tests, which you can assign several functions, you can assign also snelkeuzes to 5 the direction bud. New reported type, your calendar consult, the camera activate or your contact list can open by one very on the bud.
