Summary: It Just Works!
Comment: I have had this phone for over two years and some of the cosmetic finish has started to wear, but the phone works perfectly. It does have a learning curve because of its many capabilities, but it you are Nokia user, you will get comfortable relatively quickly. I have no trouble with the buttons and the T9 predictive text system makes text input as easy, or maybe easier, than using a full keyboard.
Besides as a phone, I use text messaging, web surfing, sending email, and taking pictures. I initially got it to work with Word and Excel files, but the screen is just too small. In a pinch it's OK, but don't expect to do much more than viewing files. I also have used Bluetooth headsets and they paired easily and work fine. I used this phone in Europe for voice, texting, and data with no problems.
Battery life has remained consistent at 4-5 hours of use. I do make sure that the Bluetooth and data connection are turned off if I'm not using them. This extends battery life even more.
I have had this phone for 2 years and I am currently looking to upgrade to a bigger screen, Wi-Fi, and 3G capabilities. I can count on one hand the number of times this phone has crashed or locked up. Well, maybe not on one hand, but infrequently enough that I can't remember the last time.
If, or when, I do trade up, I will not discard the 6682. It will be a trusted backup because it just works.

Summary: A high-end phone with high-end features
Comment: I'm reviewing the unlocked/unbranded version of this phone (not customized by a particular carrier).

First you should ask "is this the phone for me?" It's a complex phone with advanced features beyond just making and receiving calls and if you don't like reading manuals you should probably stay away. If you are unable to program a VCR you should probably stay away. If you don't have a need to synch your contacts and calendar with a PC, this phone and its size are probably overkill.

I upgraded from a Motorola RAZR and the utility of this handset is superior to that one in almost every way except size. Much like any higher-end Nokia the reception and sound/voice quality are excellent. The Symbian s60 operating system allows you to install any number of applications to suit your needs including advanced email applications, GPS navigation, web browsers, games etc. The menus are very responsive and switching between running applications is quite easy. Nokia also provides their Nokia PC Suite software for easily synching your contacts and calendar entries either through the provided USB cable or over a bluetooth connection should your computer support it. I've done all of this in the first two days that I've had the phone. Additionally Nokia's contact system is far superior to that of Motorola, collapsing all information for an individual into a single phone-book entry. On a Motorla every phone number, email address and other bits of information are in separate phone book entries which can make for quite a mess. Another great feature Nokia offers on this phone (as on many of their phones) is the ability to LOCK and UNLOCK the keyboard with two simple keypresses. This is quite useful if you tend to throw your phone into a book bag or pocket where you might accidentally call someone. If you are too lazy to take this simple precaution PLEASE DON'T BLAME THE PHONE! The camera takes adequate pictures in good lighting for a CELL PHONE. These are not images that you will blow up and hang on your wall but simply images that will successfully capture the moment, whatever it happens to be. It will not replace a competent digital camera, and phones on the horizon will offer better images. With an increased size DV RS-MMC the available memory for photos, applications, music and other files can be (at this time) increased to 1GB - I won't carry my flash MP3 player much any longer.

What the phone does it does very well so I give it 4.5/5 when compared with the other options available today that work on U.S. GSM carriers' bands (850/1900). I didn't give the phone 5 stars due to:
- the buttons are too close together, particularly the 2 which is just below the navigational button - I'll get used to this.
- the on-board RAM is a bit too small and can result in out of memory errors when using Opera's browser.
- the camera lens slide cover feels a bit flimsy and will require some caution to keep from breaking.
- picture quality could always be improved.

Summary: Learning Curve
Comment: This was my first PDA phone, but not my first PDA. I didn't want two devices anymore, just one. And I was psyched to finally have a phone that would sync with my computer. So I purchased the Nokia 6682 with Cingular service. In the past I have owned LG picture phones with Verizon celluar service so this was a new adventure for me. I am by no means afraid of technology. I love it! But this phone was a bit of a learning curve for me. I opted to keep my old phone for an extra month so I wouldn't be missing calls while trying to figure out this new phone. I decided to get a bluetooth, Plantronics Discovery 550 which sounds great with this phone. The signal reception is EXCELLENT. The phone has a place to attach a lanyard so I hang my phone near my window in my apartment where I get 6 bars and use my bluetooth. My apt. building gets lousy reception so this is a huge relief. Another handy dandy thing I've found is that if I hang my phone with the landyard from my rearview mirror, I can quickly look at it if need be. It also never gets tossed about in the car; it just swings back and forth. One thing I didn't realize when I bought the phone is that you need Microsoft Outlook (part of Microsoft Office) to use the phonebook and calendar. Luckily I had this program or else I would have been screwed. After downloading my info into the phone I started getting "low memory" warnings. So after a bit of investigating, I discovered the phone has 8MB of internal memory most of which is used by trial applications. So I deleted them (with tech support) and I have more memory available. I would suggest buying a larger memory card; it comes with a 64MB. I am not thrilled with the pictures either and it takes lousy video. My old LG had a much better camera. But I have a digital camera for those reasons. The MP3 player in theory is nice but the headphone jack on the phone is proprietary so I can only use their headphones unless I pick up an adapter. Make sure to lock the keypad when you aren't using the phone. As other people have said the volume isn't great but with the bluetooth it didn't matter. You can do alot to customize the phone which I like. The battery life is okay, not great. Overall, I am psyched to have a phone which has all my appointments and contacts in and gets great reception. The Nokia 6682 could be better but I am satisfied, [...]

Summary: RAM is the only limit to this thing's capabilities
Comment: I've had this phone for well over a year now, and it is great, but not perfect. This thing needs more RAM: Like all s60 phones, "out of memory" issues can appear. However, with a little control, most issues can be negated. Opera, for example, will cause the phone to run out of memory after a while, however, Opera mini has most of the functionality of its big brother, and can be used for extended browsing. Multitasking is great, however some more powerful apps require undivided attention from the phone and will cause other apps to close. The camera is pretty good, as long as you don't zoom, and video is better than expected. I bought the audio adapter to plug into my Bronco's headunit, and have a 2GB card full of songs. When I go offroading, this thing is tucked away in the center console, placed on random. The sound quality is great. The headphones included were decent, but I never really like earbuds. The best part of owning this phone is the great programs available, most for free. If this thing had about 5x the RAM it does, and the newest version of Symbian, it would probably be my dream phone.
