Summary: Best phone I've owned so far
Comment: I have currently owned this phone for 1 1/2 yrs now. For the first year I had absolutely no problems with it! This phone actually flew off the back of a car at about 50 MPH, broke in about 5 pieces, and went right back together and worked the same as it had before. I am a habitual phone dropper and tend to be very hard on phones! This phone has stood up to the worst and still has perfect reception. The main problems I have noticed in the past few months is that it will shut itself off at times. This can be very annoying when expecting a call or text. I would suggest that any applications you download and or any ringtones, should be saved to the memory card and not the phone memory. I downloaded a Suduko game about a year ago and saved it to the phone memory and just recently had to delete it from my phone because it used up all the phone memory. That was very disappointing. Although, I have the option of backing up my phone memory on the memory card and reloading the game from 2 weeks ago. The only downfall to that is that I lose all new data that I have incurred recently when I restore from the backup. Overall, I would definitely suggest buying this phone!

Summary: Cool phone but NOT for the the Average Joe! ! !
Comment: I have had this phone for a couple of months and I am happy to say this buy is worth the money for those who know how to use the features.
The 1.3 mpxl camera is good but the night mode sucks . The xpress print software is something new among phones and is good for instant photos . It is gps enabled which is also amazing. The mp3 player is nothing much to rave about - good for people who are happy with 10 songs on their phone. The features overall being all hi - tech is pleasing to a customer but Be Warned - This Phone is heavy and big-
OVERALL A GOOD BUY FOR PEOPLE WHO LIKE BEING HIP IN PHONES AND LIKE A LUMP HANGING IN THEIR POCKET.

Summary: mine has been a little flaky
Comment: I've had this phone for a year or so, and while I'm pretty happy with it's functionality, it has always had some problems with crashing, spontaneously rebooting, or just spontaneously turning off, and these have worsened gradually with time. The camera takes OK pictures in really good light, but degrades very quickly in less-than-ideal lighting conditions... and the ergonomics of camera use are weird, IMHO. The battery life hasn't held up too well over time either.
I've decided to upgrade to a Sony-Ericsson K550i Cyber-Shot. It's smaller, lighter, has better battery life and is known for its reliability. The camera resolution is better, the camera ergonomics are better, it's an MP3 player too. Worth the extra $50, in my book, at least for my needs. This phone isn't bad - it's served me well, and it will make a good backup, but I wouldn't pay out of pocket for an unlocked replacement.

Summary: Almost worth it
Comment: The Nokia 6682 almost hits the mark. Feature-wise, it's got a lot going for it. Usability-wise, the interface just isn't as intuitive and fast as it should be. The most obvious example is the address book search which requires 3 key letter input instead of a smart intelligent filter that only requires one press per character. Other times it's just that too many button presses are required. Pressing the circle pad in should always select the default action but too often it brings up a menu of choices. There is a menu/select button for that purpose. I like the multi-tasking aspect of the symbian os. It's very cool that I can have an audio file playing while I do another task. But it seems the phone is tight on ram and if you run more than two programs it will choose to randomly close background apps. Again it's a good phone, just not quite right for me, a computer geek. I'll probably try to pass this on to my girlfriend and get myself something more evolved when she is ready for a new(er) phone.

Summary: All the whizzbang features, but does the basics poorly
Comment: There's not much this little fellah can't do, outside of gently waking you up each day with some gentle music and a nice hot cup of coffee, and even that it can nearly do - it can wake you up and supply the music, just not the coffee.
However, I'm a fairly no-nonsense business user. I couldn't give a hoot about ring tones, or MP3 functionality, or video calls, or having the Microsoft Office suite on board - I need a phone which is reliable, easy to use, and sturdy. Admittedly, having a camera is a nice extra. The rest is, in my mind, youthful dalliance. You might ask why I opted for this phone. In truth, I ask myself that question fairly regularly, too.
Nokia has given this phone a new user interface - I suppose intended to be an improvement over the traditional Nokia one, but it is remarkably counter-intuitive, and in some cases just doesn't work.
* For the life of me, I can't find a way of bulk deleting text messages on the phone itself, and deleting them one-by-one seems to require at least three keystrokes per message. Now it's true one could use the PC interface to do this but, frankly, I can never be bothered to sync to the PC, so this isn't a hassle-free option.
*** POST SCRIPT : There IS a way of bulk deleting texts off the phone (thanks to those who wrote to me to point this out) - you need to "mark all" and then "delete" (a bit like on a hotmail account). In fairness to me this is by no means obvious let alone intuitive, and being the sort of alpha-male who never reads an instruction manual, I never would have found this out were it not for the collective power of the Amazon community! ***
* The configuration of the buttons means it is very easy to accidentally call someone when the phone is knocking around in my bag. This happens to me about once a week, and it's usually embarrassing - like when I'm singing along to my iPod or something. Yes, I know, I should lock my keypad, and most of the time I do, but it's a fact of life that I don't always. I have never had this problem with previous Nokia phones (I've owned about seven different models).
* The camera is high resolution, but it isn't high enough. It seems to me you either go the whole hog and have genuine 3 megapixel+ digital camera, or you may as well have the blurry old images from the trusty old 6230 which, I have to say, remains for me my favourite Nokia phone.
* This is the critical one - the phone's reception just isn't that great. I frequently find I am unable to make calls around my home, in suburban London. I never had that trouble with the 6230. Given I haven't switched networks, I can only attribute this to the phone.
* Also, it's very plasticky - I've had it maybe three months now, but I don't fancy its chances of surviving another nine until my contract is up. I'm tough on my phone.
I guess we're stuck in an age where the heavy-use, content-added superconsumer drives mobile phone design, and the superconsumers are brainless teenagers, but for me, the perfect mobile phone design would be one which accentuated sturdiness and sound quality: give me a 6230-shaped model with a decent camera, hard-tail aluminium construction and decently-specified audio componentry which would last for ten years, and I might never buy a phone again.
Chances of that happening, in this age of disposable consumerism? Zero.
