Nok 6220 vs 6230 In TX

Simplemind

Evidently the 6230 is not available in my calling area, only the 6220.
Is it likely that the 6230 will be added later, or is this just another marketing gimmick? 😳

Forgot to ask today are there any real differences in CDM/A and GSM in terms of reception, voice clarity, etc.?
Thanks

6220, or 3220, or 6620? I'm not familiar with the first model. The 6230 not being available likely isn't a gimmick. They're about to release an updated version of the 6230, which is the 6230-ENS. The 6230-ENS should be out VERY shortly, but they've stopped shipping the regular 6230s to deplete the stock of them first.

How is this a new 6230??? I got my 6230 on 3/8/05 and was told that it was ENS capable? 😕

I'm totally with you on that Shawn... I think they just changed the model number to catch up with what was actually in the phone. It has a new SKU, so therefore it's a new model even though it may not have changed much. There may be many other changes, but since the cost didn't change I didn't bother to read up on it.

The 6230 was discontinued to make way for the 6230 with ENS capabilities, followed by the 6230i which is the same phone with software tweeks, a 1.3 MP camera, and an improved screen.

So I should look for a 6230i to get the latest!?
The 6230i isn't showing up on the Cingular site for my area either. 😢

Will and I are both in Texas, and it's not in stores yet either. I'm expecting it any week now, since I have a huge hole in my display where the 6230 was.

Do you have any dates yet Will?

It might be this month as the phone is listed on the May 8th-31st price sheet. Pricing is the same for agents.......$138. Your guess is as good as mine. Add this handset to the $25000 question of where is the Moto V635, Moto a630, and Nokia 3220?

I guess a good indication would be the arrival of dummy phones. Typically the phone(s) come a week or so later.

I know the Memphis DC has exhausted their inventory of regular 6230's. Someone on this forum reported that they took one of the last 2 listed in Cingular's telsale data base.

Oh, Caleb, you gonna text me back one of these days? I know your busy and, but come on. 😉

But if you waited just another 3 months, you could have picked up the 6230ix .......nah, just kidding.
Thanks for the info. Is it likely that the Cing b&M would get it before Amazon or other INTERNET co.?
I've always seem to get mine at the B&M's, but I haven't bought in almost three years.....gotta be a record on this n/g.

ON the box look for the sku 63627. This is the ENS version. If you buy 63371 it is the old phone. It really doen't make a difference.
