Nokia 6303 Review, I will also analyze their specifications and features that make them different one to another.
Design
Based on this
Nokia 6303 Review, this phone is a lot smaller and lighter compared to other devices at the low-end price range. The aluminum case that covers the entire body of this phone looks pretty solid and shinny on light reflection. The only plastic case can only be found on the back of the phone, on the top, where the loudspeaker, camera, and flash light take place.

Nokia 6303 Review
Looks similar with its grand sister, Nokia 6303 is really designed by Nokia as an outdated cell phone (though it’s released to the market in 2009). Its whole design looks really classic and old compared to other similar devices at the low-end price range. Just like I said on our first review, getting this phone reminded us when our parents got us first phone ever, which looks lengthy and simple on the outside.

On the screen, the display quality of TFT, 16M colors can surely produce such a beautiful interface on the 240 x 320 pixels screen resolution.
Nokia 6303 Review - Phone Specification
Based on our Nokia 6303 review, Nokia 6303 Classic has less features and specifications than its sister, Nokia 6303i Classic. I found around 6 differences between 6303 and 6303i in this review. As a starter, Nokia 6303 Classic provides less data storage in internal and external memory. In internal memory, you will only get 17MB in internal memory and 4GB in external memory upgrading, where in Nokia 6303i, you can get around 55MB internal memory with a chance to upgrade the external memory up to 16GB.
To make this easier for you to compare between both of them, we’ve already compiled all the differences between Nokia 6303 Classic with Nokia 6303i Classic in the list "Nokia 6303 Review" below:

Phone Accessories
On the first purchase of Nokia 6303 Classic at any phone shop, you will get 1 battery charger, 1 headphone jack, and 1GB external memory.
Conclusion
Bottom line, if we look thoroughly on Nokia 6303 Classic specification and the features that being offered to the end users, obviously, this phone has lesser features than the young sister, 6303i, although it has the similar design. So basing on this Nokia 6303 review, I will surely recommend you to get the young sister, Nokia 6303i, instead of this phone.
But, since we all know that this phone has less features than Nokia 6303i, I believe you can get this phone at the lower price than the new Nokia 6303i at the phone shop.
