Product description
Featuring a color display with up to 65,536 colors, speakerphone, changeable faceplates, and polyphonic ringtones, this basic GSM phone is not to be overlooked.
Changeable faceplates and a brilliant color screen make the 1600 a great mobile companion. |
Design At first, the 1600 looks like a mild-mannered candybar phone. Looks can be deceiving, though. The 96 x 68 pixel display, which features support for 65,636 colors, gives the user a crystal clear screen, which makes it easy to type text messages and place calls. An internal antenna means there's nothing to snag in your pocket. The simplified menu and navigation with 4-way scroll key and easy-to-use key pad make for easier phone calls and text messaging.
Calling Features
The 1600's address book can store multiple phone numbers, as well as physical and email addresses. Meanwhile, the phone's built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear. Polyphonic ringtones are included, as is a vibrating alert. Ringer IDs let you assign specific ringtones to particular callers. Name-based voice recognition dialing lets you dial numbers with the sound of your voice.
Messaging, Internet and Tools
The 1600 is a natural mobile messaging companion with support for text and picture messaging. T9 text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit-- a plus for mobile email and text messaging users.
Imaging and Entertainment
The 1600 is designed for flexible mobile fun. Full color screen savers can be set up to fit your personality. And don't forget that the 1600 comes with three of the following games: Snake Xenzia, Dice, Cricket Cup, Pocket Carrom, Soccer League, Adventure Quiz, Rapid Roll (selection is area dependent).
Vital Statistics
The Nokia 1600 weighs 3.0 ounces and measures 4.09 x 1.77 x 0.67 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 5.5 hours of digital talk time, and up to 450 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the GSM 850 and 1900 frequencies. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.

bad phone, 2008-08-28
I've had the phone for 1 month now and the buttons are already starting to sieze up. Chinese crap! light weight but surprisingly good , 2008-08-09
When we first opened this we thought that we had made a big mistake because it was so light and cheap feeling. However, it has surprisingly good sound quality and when you use the hands free earpiece it still works really well.

This phone does not work on Verizon cell services. I bought it as a replacement phone, and found out this phone version mostly is used in Europe, even though ad says US version. Not all US carriers can activate this phone. indyroy, 2008-08-02
Just got the phone. Love the way it looks and feels. Went to Sprint to activate/switch from old flip-phone to this Nokia 1600 to find out it DOES NOT WORK WITH SPRINT!! What a suprise. Sure would like to have known that $51.00 ago.
