I bought this phone as a replacement for my Nokia E51 business smartphone. I know this choice sounds odd. I just accidentally dropped my E51 in water and needed an inexpensive phone I can use before I can get a free upgrade from AT&T.

This phone is slim and build quality is good for the price. As for the low call/speakerphone volume, you can actually increase it (and it gets really loud). I assigned the "volume" function to one of the keys (Settings > My Shortcuts) and now can adjust the volume (even while you talk). Reception is above average.

What's not so good about this phone is its grainy low resolution low color depth screen. It reminds me of one of the first phones I had back in the early 2000s. And of course, its basic functionality and lack of many features. However, if you need a phone to make/receive calls, this little phone is right for you.

UPDATE!!!! There is another thing about this phone that annoys me much - you'll get a lot of dust and other particles between the screen and screen cover. Considering the screen is already far from being perfect, this makes it just the worst phone screen ever. Giving it two stars not four.

This is my absolute favorite! It is slim and light, fits in any pocket (jacket or jeans), and the battery is enough for a week (if you don't talk all the time, naturally).
However, I use it mainly to take calls and I don't use any functions apart from calling and txt messages. It allegedly has a radio and camera but I have never tried to use either and I don't think I ever will. You can browse the internet with it but although the screen is fairly big and bright I would not recommend it too seriously unless you need a weather forecast or currency exchange rates. It does have games as well but if you're choosing your mobile to play games, how 'bout getting a life?
Very decent materials, after three months of using not a trace of wear and tear. Nokia software is a league of its own but then if you had one Nokia you move on to the next and you don't look at others. And you don't need anyone trying to convince you how good it is. I have always asked for the cheapest Nokia there was and I have never complained.
This is a phone for adults - you won't impress anyone with it. If you think your sex appeal needs some accessorizing, you may not find this one your perfect choice. In other words - if you need a phone, it is the perfect choice. If you need a lot of other stuff as well, it probably is not.

This is a great phone. Reception is very good. The screen is great, and it is easy to see in direct sun. It is small and light and the buttons are easy to use. The battery lasts for nearly a week.

This is a great little phone for the price. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a stylish, lightweight cell phone with basic capabilities (I only use it for sms and calls) and who want great battery life to boot.

Pros:
1. light weight
2. small enough (and slim enough) to fit comfortably in your pocket without creating a bulge
3. the menu is very easy to use and intuitive
4. fantastic battery life (seems to last forever)
5. comes with free handsfree unit (plugs into side of phone)

Cons:
1. Not very loud earpiece (can be a little tough to hear when you're in a loud environment)
2. when clicking through the menus at a rapid pace, I notice that I sometimes have to slow down and wait for the phone to react to the selection I've made (the lag isn't really bad, but it can be a little annoying)

I can't believe Nokia made such a useless product 2630 model (in comparison to Nokia 6126). This was supposed to be my secondary basic phone, but so disappointing -
1) The call volume is too low
2) Loud Speaker (handsfree) volume is also quite low.
3) Bluetooth range is less
4) Frequent disconnection from laptop connection (bluetooth sync)
5) During the call, when the device syncs, it is not an easy task to get back to call options
6) No easy option to turn off the radio. You have to navigate to the menu to turn it off.
7) When you look at the picture, you will notice two ear pieces (buds), but that's not what in the box.

I will not recommend this product.

What I like about the phone: It is very slim and lightweight and doesn't make a large bulge in my pocket like my last phone. I sometimes forget that it's even in my pocket. The design is nice and stylish too.

What I don't like about the phone: The phone is slow when navigating thru menus. It also creates a long (1 second) tone whenever the first button is pushed when making a call or when already in a call. I think this is due to the same reason that makes it slow to navigate. It's like it gets hung up on a command for a short time. It could use a faster processor or whatever it is that cell phones use. It's more annoying than anything, and cuts out the audio when the 1 second tone is sounding. i actually sent back the first one beacuse of this, but the replacement still did the same thing.

The phone is simple and just does the basics. The screen is color, but not as high resolution as some fancier phones. But that's all I need right now so it works ok for me. I haven't had any problems with volume like other reviewers, it's loud enough for me.

The Nokia 2630 is a good practical phone with a useful camera and speakerphone. There's nothing more useful than a speakerphone when waiting on hold. The FM radio is an added benefit although it requires that you have earphones handy in your pocket or purse.

I threw away my free flip-phone from the provider (actually I stashed it in a drawer) and shopped for a phone with the features I wanted. Buying an unlocked phone is a lot cheaper than upgrading from my service provider.

The Nokia 2630 is really thin making it great for a pocket phone. The best part is that it has no side buttons to accidentally push that hang-up on the caller when you reach in your pocket to get the phone. The sound quality could be a little better especially in noisy environments but I haven't found that to be a major problem. All in all I am quite satisfied.

This phone works just like it says it does. It's a good, simple, reliable phone with minimal bells and whistles. The battery lasts, the interface is quick and intuitive, and it's well designed hardware.

The only issue I've noticed so far is that the volume control is difficult to find. Aside from this, it's been great. Once I found it, it's been no problem.

This little phone is good at being a phone. You need to figure out how to control the volume during calls (see manual), and then the volume and audio quality is very good. The camera is very basic but works well enough. The device is very thin and light yet has a great battery life.

the nokia 2630 is super. the tecnology is 3G, is practical, very light and my friends love it. it's the best thing i purchase in a long, long time. 1 to 10 i give 100.
