Great value in compact package
Date of Review: Oct 17, 2008
The Bottom Line: Worldwide usage, attractive, plenty of features, this phone is worth the money, which is already a great deal.
This is a great little phone from Nokia. It is a fairly basic, standard cell phone but has enough features to get your money's worth. Color screen provides good picture quality for backgrounds and multimedia messages, though cameraphone pixels nothing to rave about, per se. Recording feature is a positive, with decent playback sound and lots of storage.
Not too bulky, but not thin either, this is a compact phone that is solid enough to withstand a beating. I've dropped, hit, scuffed and scraped this phone, and it still is withstanding the test of time! The antenna is internal, and the sound quality of calls is fairly amazing. My favorite feature is the FM radio and mp3 player built in...plug and play, all you need is a pair of headphones or earbuds, it's that simple.
Reasonably priced for the features that are included, and phone is internet capable as well as normal standard phone features. In addition, phone is worldwide capable, as long as your carrier provides you with the "international" availability chip (mine was free, others may vary).
In limited colors, I have siver (because the pink is a little garish in my humble opinion) but it is a sleek phone that looks like it ought to be more expensive than it is.
The only complaint that I have is that the message deleting feature is somewhat ridiculously involved, and entails you waiting for a very long time as each message is meticulously deleted. If you are like me, and forget to empty your sent or inbox often, then you will spend five minutes as the screen counts down "deleting...message 1 of 736," which, frankly, is annoying!
Overall, this is a solid phone that is a great deal!
