The Nokia 1680 is one of the 2G phones released last year. The phone looks pretty good with a grayish black outer casing bordered with a purple lining that make it stand out from other completely black phones. The phone has a decent 1.85 inch TFT screen which allows up to 65000 colors. The phone has a speakerphone which is handy to take calls without having to hold the phone close to the user’s ear. The phonebook has an internal memory of 32 MB which holds up to 1000 phonebook entries. The phone has class 10 GPRS as well as class 6 EDGE. This allows data to be transferred easily. The phone has been released in 4 colors-black, gray, wine red and deep plum. The 1680 has a good battery life with a talk time of almost 8 hours and a standby time of a maximum of 424 hours.
