If you like the look and feel of Nokia phones, but you've been waiting for a powerful clamshell design from them, the wait is over. The quad-band Nokia 6126 packs a serious punch with support for EDGE data, dual high-resolution color displays, a 1-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, microSD memory expansion, a music player, and a whole lot more. 
Slim and powerful, the 6126 is Nokia's flagship clamshell phone. | Design
The 6126's super thin design houses an inner display that sports impressive 240 x 320 resolution and support for 16.7 million, yes million colors. Meanwhile, the outside cover of the handset features a supplementary, 128 x 160, 262,000-color display that can display picture IDs, time, call information, battery and signal strength, and more. The phone's camera unit is placed just above this display. Up and down buttons for volume control are placed on the left side and a camera control button is placed on the right. Most of the phone's features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button on the handset's control pad. There's also an input to accept universal hands-free headsets, and a USB port for transferring data to and from the handset. The hot-swappable microSD/TransFlash memory expansion slot is compatible with cards with up to 2 GB of capacity. Calling Features
The 6126 supports polyphonic ringtones, as well as video-based ringers so you can load your favorite video clips to alert you of incoming calls. Plus, with the phone's picture and ringer ID functions, you can assign pictures and ringtones to your most common callers. If you want to be discreet, there's also a vibrate ringer mode. Meanwhile, speaker-independent voice activated dialing makes calling your friends, family and associates as easy as saying their names. The phone recognizes any voice, so you don't have to worry about pre-recording your commands. The 6126's phone book will keep track of all your contacts, and address book capacity is only limited by the phone's 11 MB of built-in memory. There's also an integrated speakerphone for talking hands-free, and lastly, the phone's Bluetooth connectivity means that your favorite Bluetooth headset is fully compatible. Messaging, Internet, and Tools
The 6126 is a mobile messaging and Internet powerhouse. With support for MMS (multimedia messaging service), the phone can send picture and text messages. When coupled with the phone's powerful camera, MMS opens up great opportunities for robust messaging. The phone ships with a built-in email client that supports POP3, IMAP, and SMTP protocols. You can even open and view email attachments. Getting on the Internet is easy with the 6126. It supports the GPRS data protocol, as well as the high-speed EDGE wireless data service. When used with your carrier data plan and the phone's USB or Bluetooth data capability, the phone can be used as a wireless modem for laptops and PDAs. The phone is bundled with a mobile Web browser, too. Meanwhile, T9 text entry, a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit--a plus for mobile email and text messaging users. The 6126 supports PC synchronization via USB or Bluetooth, which means you can manage and synchronize contacts, calendar and other data with your PC. Nokia's PC Suite application makes this process a breeze. A number of handy software tools are bundled with the 6126 including a voice memo recorder, a calculator, a calendar, a to-do list, and an alarm clock. Imaging and Entertainment
This is where the real fun begins. The 6126's one-megapixel camera takes great pictures and it can also capture video. And when you've got all the pictures you want on your memory card, you can connect the camera directly to any PictBridge-compatible printer for instantaneous printing right from the phone. The phone supports playback of streaming video in 3GPP format, too. If mobile music is your thing, you can load up your MP3, MP4, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, and WMA audio files and listen to your heart's content via the stereo headset jack. And don't forget about the games! The phone comes with a perennial favorite, Snake, as well as 3D soccer. Vital Statistics
The Nokia 6126 weighs 3.95 ounces and measures 3.62 x 1.89 x 0.79 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 3.4 hours of digital talk time, and up to 240 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 frequencies. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.

 I expect more from Nokia December 1, 2008
Dawn G.
I didn't buy from this seller, so maybe he/she has somehow found better quality phones than what I have in my pocket, but I doubt it.
My intended use for this piece of equipment is as A PHONE. I'm not sure why I would care more about the camera than I do about the sound quality. It's not very good. I have a Nokia 6102i that has wonderful voice quality. This one doesn't come close. Yes, the 6102i is not even available anymore - mine is old, but I won't give it up until it quits working. If it was available, I would replace this one with another one. I am now in search of something to replace this one with, because when you use a phone for business you want your customers to be able to make out what you are saying.
I had to return the first phone (purchased from Radio Shack) - we thought there was something wrong with it because if you let the battery die you can't turn it on again unless you pull the battery out and put it back in. But this one does the same thing. I wrote the manufacturer an e-mail but they didn't respond. But really the sound quality is what gets me. I can live with the battery trick.
The signal is probably average for an internal antenna phone. I carry them both, and my 6102i has a MUCH better signal.
My suggestion - shop around a little more. Only get this phone if it is the only Nokia that they will give you for free. Don't pay for it. Nokia makes some good stuff. I am at the point where I won't own a phone that isn't a Nokia. I've been carrying them for 15 years. But this one is definately not their best work. That is, if you are looking for a PHONE and not a camera, or a music player, or a nice display. If those are all you care about, check out the other reviews who address these things, because I don't care about them.
 Screen has gone crazy October 29, 2008
R. Boulden (Orlando, FL USA)
I liked the Nokia 6126 phone until a month ago. This is the second 6126 phone from AT&T in 2 years. The first had the black paint around the touch pad flake off. That was minor. The replacement has lasted about a year and the two screens (inside and outside) both went crazy. Sometimes the color is wrong, once it rotated the image 90 degrees. Now most of the time there is no image, just gray or a dark blue. I tried the rebooting routine ... taking the battery out ... . No good. Sometimes shaking it works.
Now it is frustrating and I can only answer incoming calls. Phone works, you just can't see what is on the screen. I love Nokia. The last Sony I had, died from the white screen of death. Now my Nokia 6126 is on life support. I'm tired of AT&T sticking it to me when their (free) phone craps out. I don't need a camera, internet, music, or qwerty keyboard. Just a reliable phone????
Nothing but trouble! July 1, 2008
D. Bell (Ithaca, NY)
I've had this model phone for about a year now. When I say MODEL phone, it's because I've had to replace it twice. This phone suffers from MANY bugs, most notably:
- The screen freezes then says "operation failed" when I try to take pictures (this has happened on both phones).
- Generally poor voice quality. On the 1st phone, I was too quiet, and on the 2nd one, I sound like I'm an anonymous tipster on "Dateline" - my voice is all garbled and no one can understand me.
- Can't send picture messages - the phone restarts itself (has happened on both phones).
- Camera displays black as green, so everything looks horrible.
This phone was cheap so I got it, and I regret it. Don't fall for this trap!
Nice phone, but some bad flaws April 20, 2008
kari (colorado)
I like parts of the phone, but the flaws are so large, I wish I bought a different one. I'm not a fancy text-messenger or want all these super features, I just want a phone that's easy to use, that has a clock, and can do the occasional photo or text message.
What I do like:
1. I like the inside layout/buttons. The buttons on the inside of the phone are easy to see, easy to press.
2. Nice bright display inside.
3. Clock display on the outside panel.
What I don't like:
1. The stupid design of putting buttons on the side of the phone. You can't pick it up or hold it without pressing these buttons. I'm constantly changing the volume accidentally or turning on the camera - and then I have to change the volume back and turn off the camera. What a poor design choice.
2. The battery life. If you don't use the phone (like if it is just sitting on your desk), it is great. It lasts a long time. But if you actually talk on the phone, it drains the battery like crazy. I brought it with me when I went into labor. After the birth, it was doing fine. Full battery charge (according to the meter) but it was solid dead after a 1-2 hour conversation with my sister.
3. Not sure what I did, but the covering on the lens for the camera was cracked pretty immediately. I had my old Nokia bar phone for 2 years and it never cracked. Maybe it was something I did, or maybe this one is not as durable.
Anyway, it works fine. I've had a few more dropped calls on this one than my old Nokia 3220 though.
 I love this phone! November 13, 2007
D. Dingle
This is a great phone and has everything I want. I love the button that opens the phone as it is very helpful for one-handed use. The only criticism is that the camera button along the right side is very sensitive and is activated easily when fishing for the phone in a purse or pocket. This button is flush with the case. I would rather activate the camera after opening the flip. Also, the profile button on the same side of the case seems useless as you have to open the flip before you can actually choose the profile. Otherwise, the phone is coolio!
