Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
In the search for one device to do it all -- phone, email, web, contacts, documents, music, video--look no further than the Nokia 9300. This latest addition to Nokia's vaunted Communicator line of handsets is thinner, lighter and more useful than ever, and a unique folding design adds infinite flexibility. Add that to the much-loved Symbian Series 80 operating system and you've got a winning powerhouse in your pocket.
Design
At first, the 9300 looks like a typical Nokia candybar form-factor phone with a 128 x 128 screen and the typical dial-pad and navigation button. Flip the cover, though, and you're presented with a gorgeous 640 x 200 widescreen display and a full QWERTY keyboard. Both displays support 65,000 colors. A row of shortcut buttons arrayed above the keyboard makes it easy to quickly navigate to the device's phone, messaging, web, contacts, documents, and calendar functions. A small thumb-stick allows you to navigate through the 9300's menu system. And when you're browsing the web and using other applications it functions as a mouse pointer. A hot-swappable MMC memory card slot is provided, as is the Nokia "Pop-Port" interface for connecting wired headsets and the included desktop charging/synchronization cradle. The device ships with 80 MB of internal memory.
Calling Features
The 9300's address book is only limited by the amount of available memory, and it can store multiple phone numbers, as well as physical and email addresses. Meanwhile, the 9300's built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear. Polyphonic ringtones are included, and you can use your favorite music or recorded voices as ringtones. Picture IDs let you assign specific ringtones to particular callers. Plus, the phone's Bluetooth connectivity means that your favorite Bluetooth headset is fully compatible.
Messaging, Internet and Tools
With support for the MMS (multimedia messaging service), the 9300 can send picture, video and text messages (Cingular messaging charges apply). Instant messaging is also supported, and the phone ships with a built-in email client that supports POP3 and IMAP protocols, as well as Microsoft Office-based email attachments.
Getting on the Internet is easy with the 9300. It supports the GPRS data protocol, as well as the new, high-speed EDGE wireless data service. When used with a carrier data plan and the phone's USB or Bluetooth data capability, the phone can be used as a wireless modem for laptops and PDAs. There's also a built-in web browser for MEdia downloads and mobile web browsing. Cingular's MEdia service lets you receive and send emails, read news headlines, get weather updates, download games and ringtones, and more. T9 text entry, a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit-- a plus for mobile email and text messaging users.
The 9300 supports PC synchronization standards via USB or Bluetooth, which means you can manage and synchronize contacts, calendars and other data with your PC. Nokia's PC Suite application makes this process a breeze. A number of handy software tools are bundled with the 9300 including a voice memo recorder, a calculator, and an alarm clock. Productivity tools bundled with the 9300 include a word processor, a presentation viewer/editor, and a spreadsheet viewer/editor. These applications are compatible with the most common features of Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel (MS Office 97 or later). Robust contact and calendar applications are also included.
Messaging, Internet and Tools
The phone supports playback of MP3, RealAudio and AAC audio files so you can use it as a mobile music player. Picture effects and custom screensavers, as well as backgrounds and themes, can be set up to fit your personality. And don't forget that the 9300 is a powerful gaming companion with support for Java and Symbian games.
Vital Statistics
The Nokia 9300 weighs 5.89 ounces and measures 5.20 x 2.01 x 0.83 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 4 hours of digital talk time, and up to 200 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/1800/1900 frequencies. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.

Not perfect, but there is nothing else in its class,
By Spiritraveller (Atlanta, GA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Nokia 9300 Unlocked Smartphone with MP3/Video Player, MMC--U.S. Version with Warranty (Silver) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I have had this phone for over a year now. As others have written, it does occasionally lock up, and it can be a little slow at times.
However, I am amazed that there is still nothing that rivals it in terms of screen and keyboard size. I don't even bother with the included email application, as the web browser is good enough for checking my gmail account. (note that there is a gmail app, but it only works with normal gmail accounts and not "Google Apps for your Domain" accounts) There are a lot of phones out there with keyboards now, but none is as well designed. And I don't think there are any phones with this many features that don't require an occasional reboot. Bottom line: for a screen that is adequate for web browsing, and a keyboard that is good enough to write long emails, in a package that looks like an ordinary phone until you open it up, and fits nicely in your pocket... there is no alternative. I would upgrade if there was an upgrade, but I am very happy with it.

fantastic business phone,
By hepresearch "Patrick" (Columbia, PA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Nokia 9300 Unlocked Smartphone with MP3/Video Player, MMC--U.S. Version with Warranty (Silver) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I previously owned a T-Mobile Dash by HTC, which worked well and I liked it. After crunching that one by accident, I decided to get an unlocked phone that seemed a bit more beefy. I don't like Blackberries, so I decided to try the Nokia 9300. It was discontinued by a couple years, but I still managed to find a brand new in the box North American version for a strongly discounted price. I had an old Nokia bar phone a few years back, and that thing still works today, so the reliability is great for Nokia's based on that experience.
The 9300 is honestly the best phone I have ever owned. I have had it for five months now, and the Symbian 7.0 series 80 OS has never crashed, not even once, the entire time I have owned it; my Dash's Windows Mobile 6.0 OS used to crash every week, at least once a week. The Dash could not take a call while working in a spreadsheet without freezing, but the 9300 seems to manage just fine. The spacious 80 MB internal memory also seems to stand the Nokia in good stead. My Dash had a 1.3 Mpixel camera with video, and the Nokia has no camera. This may seem like a drawback, but I honestly don't care; I never cared for cameras in phones to begin with. The Dash has a full QWERTY keyboard crammed onto its lower front, while the 9300 has a gigantic inner keyboard that is more akin to a miniature laptop! I love the keyboard on the 9300, and I doubt any other phone has such a one, except possibly the 9500... My T-Mobile service is decent, the customer service is outstanding, and I hardly ever drop calls. When I had Cingular/AT&T back in the day, my coverage was wider but I dropped so many calls that I couldn't really carry a long conversation. I prefer the stability of T-Mobile calls to the wider coverage area of AT&T. T-Mobile was also willing to accept my unlocked phone on my service plan without extending my contract, and they do not require a contract if you provide your own unlocked phone; AT&T requires you to enter an 18-month restriction even if you provide your own unlocked phone. Also, T-Mobile's EDGE network is nearly three times faster in these parts than AT&T's. I get almost 250 kbits/sec on T-Mo's EDGE, while AT&T's only got 100 kbits/sec tops in practice. Also, the tethered modem capability is available with T-Mo's 19.99 data plan, while AT&T will not include it unless you spend 65.00/mo on data alone. So, I like T-Mobile for my 9300, and it works great... One funny thing about the 9300 is that there is no vibrating alert, but since I sit and type on it in meetings, I actually prefer not to have vibrating alert. So it works out for me in a funny way. It is as if somebody made this phone just for me. It does great on everything. Adobe Reader for Symbian does make a few errors on displaying pdf's once in a while, but everything else... email, internet, phone as modem, voice calls, display, calendar and alarm functions, applications, speakerphone, conference calls... everything else works beautifully. The phone and the OS are not totally seamless, though; I think the phone and OS are not nearly as integrated as they were on my Windows Mobile smartphone, but I actually prefer them to be somewhat seperate. Once again, somebody must have been thinking of me... The fact that this phone takes an MMC card instead of SD, miniSD or microSD was a little wierd, but I got a decent MMC card to go with it. It will take up to a 2 GB MMC or MMC-Plus card, and since MMC cards will fit into SD readers, I have had no problems. A nice touch is that the MMC slot allows for hot swapping. This phone has handily survived a couple of drops since I got it, and does not have any scratches, dents, marks, cracks, or otherwise as a result. It has stood up to some nasty situations; getting rained on, sitting out in a hot car, falling onto a wooden floor, being attacked by my cat... It takes a lick and keeps on ticking! Once again, a great phone by Nokia. The nicest and best phone I have ever owned thus far...
