I need to buy 3 Nokia (must be Nokias) for each member of my family... has anyone got any suggestions for the following:

Phone 1

For my Dad, so needs to have the following:
  • Simple (not Symbian)
  • Big Screen
  • Big Keypad
  • Long Battery Life for Talk-Time
  • Up to £200

Phone 2
For my Mum, so needs to have the following:
  • Simple (not Symbian)
  • 3G Compatible
  • Video Phone
  • Average Sized Keypad (she uses LG U880 at the moment)
  • Up to £125

Phone 3
For my Sister, so needs to have the following:
  • Can Be Symbian
  • 3G Compatible
  • Video Phone
  • Memory Card Compatibilty (for music and photos)
  • Long Battery Life for Music
  • Up to £125

Do Nokia do 3G phones which aren't Symbian?

I have already decided to get the N73 for myself, so thats already sorted :)

If your looking for 3G Nokia phones that aren't Symbian then it would have to be something like a 6280 or whatever the equivilant is of them these days, they are dead simple and cover all the features your looking for :)

I've had several phones that have Symbian on and have to they are really easy to use :)

Trust me... a new remote control would confuse my Mum and Dad... definitly not Symbian :p

Is the 6280 non-symbian?
 
Cheers for your amazing post mrochester :)

Unfortunately, neither my Mum or Sister can have a non 3G phone - only my Dad can have this (Sister and Mum are on 3, whereas Dad is on O2).

The main problem my Dad has is pressing buttons in the car, when the phone is in the cradle, as well as seeing the screen (without his glasses) when he is carrying the phone around... which is why I thought Nokia 6300.

My Mum ideally wants a small light Nokia 3G Video Phone - don't even know if they exist :confused:
