  • Nokia 6590: Rock solid GSM/GPRS phone

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 10, 2003
    Pros: Small size, well built, high-res display, FM radio
    Cons: display on the small side, no color, browser somewhat counterintuitive

    Summary: I used my Nokia 6160 phone for many years. This was a very well built phone with a very nice, intuitive user interface. Most of the newer Nokia phones like the 3360 looked pretty cheaply built, so I never upgraded my phone until recently when I switched ... read more

    Pros: Small, light, full of features, great battery life.
    Cons: Low ringer volume, direction-sensitive earpiece.

    Summary: I started with an entry-level phone, a Nokia 3390, but decided to upgrade. After a bit of research I was determined to get the Nokia 6590i. It had all the things I wanted improved over the 3390 and a similar and very intuitive menu/controls. First ... read more

    Pros: Small, light, easy to use
    Cons: HORRIBLE signal issues, "quirks"

    Summary: I bought this phone a few months ago and I must say, it's a superb phone! I went to the store to actually by a different phone, but then I saw this one and I HAD to have it. This is a very sturdy phone, so much better than the 8390. The 8390 had ... read more

    Apr 16, 2003
    Pros: Extremely sleek, sturdy design; hi-res screen.
    Cons: Difficult to cradle on shoulder

    Summary: Having won this phone as a replacement to my Nokia 8390, I was very confused. Isn't this new 6590 the same as my 8390 but with a champagne face plate? To the contrary, the 6590 takes the 8390 and raises the bar a notch. First, the 6590 feels ... read more

    Pros: lots of features, compact size
    Cons: no color screen, on/off button, may be a little too small for some people

    Pros: Small, Great Features
    Cons: Not very many faceplate options

    Summary: I found that this was one of Nokia's best products. It was everything that I wanted. I was looking for a small phone that had a lot of features. You know the big things in a small package deal and this was it. There are not too not too many bad ... read more

    Cons: Can't store calling cards in it.

    Summary: I got this phone 2 months ago and I didn't have any problems with it since then. As soon as I got this phone I ditched my old Nokia 3360. I actually have the nokia 6590i, the Canadian version of Nokia 6590. The only difference between them is ... read more

    Pros: High resolution screen.

    Pros: Size, Nokia UserInterface, features
    Cons: no colour screen

    Summary: I recently bought this phone after selling my Nokia 8390 for a Motorola. I needed to get a Nokia again because they make by FAR the best phones for sms'ing. I must say that this was the best choice I have made in a long time. The phone is tiny, has a ... read more

    Pros: Nokia knows how to build solid cellular telephones
    Cons: GSM Technology still playing catch up

    Summary: I've been using the new Nokia 6590 on AT&T's brand new GSM system which they introduced along with their unlimited usage charter plans. The phone competes directly with its counterpart the Nokia 8390. They are similar or alike in technology except the ... read more

    Cons: not a color screen, no bluetooth

    Summary: I ditched my Nokia 3360 (see my epinions review on that one if you'd like) on ATT's TDMA network to move over to the Nokia 6590. I waited awhile until ATT's GSM network started maturing a bit, but, I recently picked up the Nokia 6590 GSM (it's only sold ... read more

    Cons: Talk and End button could be a little bigger.

    Summary: This phone is a treat to use. It seems as though the European technology may finally have gotten here. Thanks for allowing us to have the good stuff FCC. I believe that they may have finally realized that the rest of the world gets to use the new phones, ... read more
