Looking to see if anyone currently had the Nokia 3589i and upgraded to the 6236i???

Do you like it? Is the reception the same or better?? I live on Long Island, New York. I get awesome reception with my 3589i.

How do you like the screen and joystick features on the 6236i compared to the 3589i.

I'm due to upgrade my phone in April and am doing my research now. I like the reviews for the phone, though not crazy to hear about the joystick reviews.

Wondering how the phone compares to the 3589i? I love that phone and am having a hard time giving it up. But I know I need to upgrade cause I want some of the new features. Hopefully someone can reply. Any info on what you like or don't like would be greatly appreciated 😁

I don't know if this helps at all but I will say that the reception on this phone is awesome. I just got rid of my Razor v3c to buy this phone and at work with the razor I would get zero signal, with the Nokia I have full bars...
You get used to the joystick pretty quickly...

Thanks for the reply. It does help knowing the reception is good. Where do you use your phone? Long Island, NY like me, I hope, I hope!!

I hope you get a response for your question about reprogramming the shortcuts on the joystick. That is one thing I always wished I could do with my 3589i, but Verizon blocked it. I even tried calling Nokia directly, but since I was with Verizon, there was nothing they could do.

With my 3589i, the up arrow gives me text messaging, the down arrow gives me contacts, the right arrow gives me get it now, and the left arrow gives me minibrowser. USELESS. I don't use get it now or the minibrowser. the text messaging and contacts is avaialable by one touch in the menu, so to have it in the arrows is ...

you can program 1 short cut, otherwise they are text messages get it now, and mobile web. Verizon also blocked the picture Id and banner changes. I hate this phone, I never got used to the joystick, or the stupid stuff that you can't do. (see above) but it does get good reception.

You can use Diego I believe to change the functions of the joystick.
