The phone is an update of the [[Nokia 3100]], while adding features from the [[Nokia 7250i]] and [[Nokia 6610i|6610i]]. The phone's feature set was very similar to the 7250i and 6610i, but featured different software and firmware installed, and was sold at a lower price than the 7250i or 6610i. Of the three phones, the 3200 was mainly targeted towards the youth market, the 7250i towards fashion-conscious users, and the 6610i towards business users. Core features include an [[XHTML]] browser, alarm clock, flashlight, [[EDGE (telecommunication)|EDGE]] and [[FM broadcasting|FM]] [[stereophonic sound|stereo]] [[radio]] with a 128Γ128 12-bit (4096) color screen. The phone has multimedia features such as picture and text messaging. Features carried over from the Nokia 3100 include ringer profiles and voice memo capability. It also has [[Java Platform, Micro Edition|Java]] games (max downloadable size of game or application cannot exceed 64 kB). The phone has an extensive calendar with a [[lunar calendar]] (for the Chinese/Asian variants). The [[flashlight]] is located under the phone and can be activated by holding the "star" (asterisk) key. The camera is on the back of the phone. The 3200 can also play both [[polyphonic]] and [[Monophony|monophonic]] [[ringtone]]s. The phone's visual interface in its menu system is similar to that of the Nokia 3100, using large, static icons rather than animated ones. An interesting feature present in this phone is that the face plate system allows users to print out their own cut-out cover designs and use it in the phone. The official special released designs include "Snowboard," "Street life," and "Urban chic." It was thus marketed as being "fun and funky" with a unique style.<ref>{{cite press release | url=https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20030912005192/en/Nokia-3200-Phone-Offers-Do-It-Yourself-Personalization-Mobile | title=News }}</ref> While the phone's feature set was an improvement over the Nokia 3100, the 3200 did not quite enjoy the popularity that the 3100 did. Some known complaints with the phone included its low CIF resolution camera, quirky keypad design, and its small 12-bit color display. This kept the 3100, and its redesign, the 3120, in production, while the 3200 was discontinued and replaced by its successor, the [[Nokia 3220]]. The Nokia 3220 addresses some of the 3200's known flaws, upgrading to a higher VGA resolution camera with video recording capability, redesigning the keypad to a more standard layout, and improving the display to a 16-bit color LCD. ==Versions== * '''Nokia 3200b (RH-31)''' for [[North America]] - Operates on [[Global System for Mobile Communications|GSM]] 850/1800/1900 with [[General Packet Radio Service|GPRS]] and [[Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution|EDGE]] technology. * '''Nokia 3200 (RH-30)''' for [[Europe]] / [[Asia]] - Operates on GSM 900/1800/1900 with GPRS and EDGE technology. * '''Nokia 3205''' - Operates on [[CDMA2000]] 800/1900 and [[Advanced Mobile Phone System|AMPS]] 800 with [[CDMA2000 1xRTT]] technology. Features a VGA camera, a timer and night mode. To check version, type *#0000# while phone is powered on. == Reception == Kent German of [[CNET]] gave the phone 3.5 out of 5 stars, lauding its extensive personalization options, its ability to send and receive instant messages, built-in speakerphone FM radio, decent battery life, infra-red port, and compatibility with the [[Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution|EDGE network]], while panning its "somewhat flimsy" plastic casing, "confusing" keypad layout, "unintuitive" multimedia messaging, "basic" CIF camera, and its 1 MB of shared memory.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.cnet.com/products/nokia-3200/review/|title=Nokia 3200 (AT&T) Review - CNET|last=German|first=Kent|date=8 April 2004|access-date=5 November 2016}}</ref> The PhoneArena team was more positive, giving the phone a 7 out of 10. Unlike CNET, they said camera was of "satisfactory" quality and its battery life was "good." They further praised its flashlight, FM radio, and speakerphone; however, they panned its lack of appeal for the youth market with its "same old form factor" with the "same old series 40 graphic platform."<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Nokia-3200-review_id60|title=Nokia 3200 review|date=5 September 2004|access-date=5 November 2016}}</ref> == References == {{Reflist}} {{Nokia devices|1000 series=yes|2000 series=yes|3000 series=yes|5000 series=yes|6000 series=yes|7000 series=yes|8000 series=yes|9000 series=yes|3-digit series=yes|asha=yes|cseries=yes|eseries=yes|nseries=yes|xseries=yes|3-digit symbian=yes|lumia=yes|internet=yes|n-gage=yes|x family=yes|android=yes|originals=yes|c series=yes|g series=yes|x series=yes|miscellaneous=yes|below=yes}} [[Category:Nokia mobile phones|3200]] [[Category:Mobile phones with infrared transmitter]] [[Category:Series 40 devices]]
