1 sturdiest phone i ever owned
dropped it about 200 times over 2 years, last major drop chipped the replaceable front cover. great battery life. i also dropped it getting out of the car into a puddle where it was completely submerged for about 2 hours, where it recieved calls and vibrated, and was still on when i found it. still had no problems after i dried it out thoroughly. this thing is a tank. get it for your kids. beats the hell out of the new blackberry 7290 work gave me. don't get a 7290, so many problems i want to throw it quite vigorously towards the RIM president's face for releasing it too early.
2 If you're sticking with TDMA for now, give this phone a look
I upgraded to this phone from the Nokia 8260. I've been very happy with its convenience and performance. It's had hard use from me; I've dropped it at least a dozen times and it's been banged around in my carry-on through many flights. It has good reception--noticably better than the 8260, and I like Nokia's intuitive operating system. People complained a lot about the offset keys when this phone first came out, and sure enough, I found it took getting used to. However, once I grew accustomed to the key layout, I found it easier to use without looking--mainly, while driving--than more "standard" keyboards. All in all, this is a light, compact, durable phone, and well worth consideration if you're sticking with TDMA for now. (I've decided to switch to GSM because it's lately giving better reception in the area I often travel to.)
3 Great Little Phone
This phone is great for people who want their phone to be... well a phone. I got the best range coverage and I never got cut off in the middle of a call. Even with all of my traveling I never had a problem. The battery life is terrific. I could go days before I had to recharge the battery even whan I used it for calls. The internal antenna was a great feature. No more broken antennas from an accidental drop. The phone proved very durable.
This was the best phone I've had. I wish I didn't have to switch to the GPRS system, it's not nearly as efficient yet.
4 the best non-GSM phone in a GSM/GPRS world
This is my third Nokia phone with AT&T wireless in 5 years. Previously I had the 6162 and the 8260. I've had this one for nine months now and here are the highpoints.
1. Awesome battery life - a color screen would be nice but the battery life is more important to me. Also shows up better in the sun than a color screen would.
2. Compact size (fits in my pocket)
3. Excellent Coverage. GSM/GPRS phone network is still under construction and will be years before it's close to the size of the older TDMA network. I'm looking forward to being able to take a GSM phone anywhere in the world, but not at the expense of coverage right now.
4. Nokia has the best user interface.
5. Solid but light construction.
6. No Internet crap. I'll use my laptop for that, thanks. Text messaging and short emails are all I need for my phone.
The cell phone sales people are trying HARD to sell those GSM phones but stay away from that for another year or two. I got a good deal on this phone as a longtime customer by threatening to leave and go to another provider if they didn't at least come close to the deals offered to new customers.
Hey, and where do I find that Star Wars Imperial March for a US phone??? :-)
5 the hulk
best phone ive ever owned, and ive had about 7 phones in the last 2 years(i work for a cellphone company). its the most user friendly phone ever. always has good reception, and battery life is awesome, not to mention how sturdy it is. i call it the hulk, ive dropped the phone about 63 times and it still works like brand new.
6 Nokia 8265
I would be on top of the world if I can successfully order Nokia 8265 from you Company.
7 this is realy a light weight champion
nokia in general is known as the best and the easiest software you can deal with, and the 8265 had make it even easier and more fun.. its so light and have many features that u realy use and want.. iam satisfied with my phone and iam sure u will too.
8 No regrets
My last cell was a Nokia 6120, and it was like carrying a brick tied to my belt. The 8265 was a welcome change. It's very hip, small, unobstrusive, love the vibrating alert and the fact that you can assign ringtones to your contacts. Very useful when there's someone you want to avoid, just by listening to the ringtone. You can download a couple of those movie or popsongs ringtones... I have the Halloween theme and the Star Wars Imperial March - very nice touch...
The web browser is a bit strange but hey, If I want to browse the web I use my computer...
