Sell it and get a better phone.

it has a super camera man.. i can't sell it for cheap 5-6k.
i had created ad to sell it on quiker to check what price is offered. the first caller said i can give 4k and i removed it :p

for quality check this pic..

it wasn't sarcasm btw .. i was serious since there will be no more Nokia phones now ( unless nokia decides to return in 2016) this phone will become rare and antique by that time after 20-30 years or so.. auctioning it will fetch you good amount of money.. use it as a camera phone till then

I always carry a 6220 Classic in my pocket with my 2nd SIM. Just for its camera which is still better than my ZR! Also its long lasting battery serves as a reliable backup when ZR is on its last legs by evening.

I lusted after N8 but had not enough money to buy one. By the time 808 came around the writing was on the wall :(

I guess the title of the thread can be safely renamed to "Should I sell my Symbian phone?"

haha.. not going to happen man..
it's still good as a paper weight if its totally dead.

Yes, very few people are using Symbian now.
