Horrible

Overall Rating:
2 out of 5
By: Keith Van Gorder on Wednesday, November 14, 2007
From: Cortland, NY (United States)
Experience: 80 Days
Pros: Severely deter's driving while talking, due to the extremely poor visibility in daylight; battery life.

Cons: No external volume control; virtually impossible to see or use anywhere but indoors; no option to change from icons to list; small size is uncomfortable to talk and listen freely; menu setup is awkward; keys feel cheap; minimal room to key directional pad without cancelling it out by inadvertently pressing the off/cancel button, no way to change from ring to vibrate without several menu's, up/downs, and selects.

Summary: This is the worst phone design I have ever run across. How this made it off the designer's desk and into production is a mystery, and a poor reflection on Nokia. I have been forced to use this phone through a State contract.

I can't find a real feature that I can say is a "Pro." Trust me, there are many other phones out there for the same or less money that will cause you infinitely less stress.

When I say it is impossible to view outside, that is an understatement, and it includes your car. I suppose a pro would be that it deter's driving while talking.

Display brightness is poor

From: Orem, UT (United States)
Experience: 14 Days
Pros: Good key layout. Easy to use by feel

Cons: Display is highly reflective, can't see outdoors. Can't see at all without backlight. Menu icons & font requires 20/20 vision.

Summary: I like the phone,except the display makes it impossible to use all the features if you do not have good eys.
