The 6300 is surely an attempt to launch sleek phones as an affordable commodity. The result is simple. Here we have a dashing phone with a lot in common with a lot of other successful phones in the market, but sadly enough, not much new to offer. The 6300 it seems is a phone with a little bit of everything thrown in. It does nothing new from let’ say the 6280, it just does it better. Let’s see how much better.
Design
As far as the appearance is concerned, I must say the 6300 is quite stylish. It’s a neat blend of black colored plastic and a shiny stainless steel battery cover. Basically, something that will not embarrass you every time you bring it out for a chat. (Showoffs may even have some fun being over the phone all the time). At 106.4 x 43.6 x 13.1mm, it’s slim enough. And it is quite light too at 90 grams. If you are shifting from one of the bulky ones, the 6300 will feel like your head does after shaving that 3-year-old long mane. It’s light, people!
I can’t rave about the ergonomics though. In fact, there are quite a few bones to pick here. The button placement is odd. There is the menu button that is bedded in between the navigational key, which a thin shiny silver square. Every time I needed to use them (being the main functional keys, you will end up using these the most), I had to look for a "sweet spot", as the point-of-contact between the thumb and the keys felt very uncomfortable. The buttons are quite thin for my taste, making it a little awkward to press.
I am very shocked about its battery.
