"Excellent Basic Phone!!!"
Pros: Battery life (went 4 days without charging, wow!), raised number pads for easy dialing, sleek design, better menu than previous T-mobile Nokia model, speakerphone, color (better than Cingular's black)
Cons: thickness (a little bit bulky, but not too bad), wish it had a bigger screen but that ok
Summary: I just got this about a 1 1/2 weeks ago. Excellent phone for those who don't want to spend too much money on a cell phone. This Nokia does the job! It does not have the perks of other fancy cell phones, but hey what can you ask for, for a phone thats under $50. It does have a speakerphone which is great for the price. It also had a nice and easy to use interface, which is a lot better than it's previous Nokia model for T-mobile. I'm in Los Angeles and I have great reception where ever I go with this phone. Even in places that I have heard has bad reception. People who complain that this phone isn't this or isn't that, but realistically, why would you think this phone would be so perfect? No phone can ever be perfect, because everyone has different preferences about a phone. This phone simply does the job nicely. Make, recieve calls with ease! It's as simple as that. I wish the phone would be a little thinner, but hey I don't really care, because the battery life on this thing is tremendous!!! 4 days without charging with regular usage! Of course if you use any phone a lot more, typically your battery will wear out faster (common sense). I had the Motorola L6 and it's battery lasted only 2days at the most. With regular usage, I would be lucky to even have a day. But this Nokia saves battery life and it lasts a long time. A definate perk for me, because I hate charging phones everyday or every other day. I also like the rounded edges this phone has, it makes it look a lot more sleeker. Get this phone! Good value for the money.
