Battery life is OK, not great. Definitely a bit cheap but a decent all-round phone.
Camera is very good, MP3 player is OK, and you can download route 66 free (unoffically Eye-wink) to get free satnav.

My Mrs has had the 6300 for about a month and the stainless steel on the back is full of scratches. She always wrecks her phones but I've not seen her succeed this quckly before.

My 6300 is fucked. Got a new battery yesterday (free) gave it a full charge last night and its run out already today, software fault apparently. Happened to a few other peoples too, will hopefully get it changed free of charge.(no pun)

yeah my brother has a 6300 and there is now a massive scratch on the steel back which tarnishes the overall look.

@burny.

ive been reading reviews of the 6300 and the battery life is poor according to the majority.

@russ.

does the 6500 classic scratch easily? and what is the battery life like?

im also rather keen on the 7900:


i like the faceting effect.
