Cool, huh. I'm not married to my computer anymore.
I take pictures with it, make my own ringtones with it from my own mp3 collection, take video and upload it to my computer and email to family and friends, sync the calendar with Google Calendar and get text message reminders before any appt., and the call quality is great too. This phone does it all.
Another cool feature is that if you give PowerPoints, like I do, (I'm a teacher) then you can sync the phone with your computer and use it as a clicker to move from slide to slide. I even use the note feature to keep important numbers and addresses, such as my employee number at work or my new address when I moved and didn't have it memorized yet.And if I'm bored, I open the phone and play a game of tetris, which is an add on, but still.If you don't want to commit to the high-priced top-tier phones, then this is the phone for you.
The keys are wide and the screen is large, which makes text messaging a pleasure. I can move around the room and give my lesson from the PowerPoint.
Go get this phone.
I am not going into the details but setting options is SO complicated. Nokia was my first phone and since then I have always wanted to return to Nokia because it was a great phone from all perspectives. I bought this one and quickly realized that Nokia is NO LONGER a user-friendly phone. Also, the front display glass broke the first time I dropped it - so it is fragile. Anyways, it is been sitting on my shelf after 1 month of use.
Screen lighting is poor to terrible and features are not at all intuitive. Nokia/T-Mobile will not cover because it is cosmetic damage. The glue/binding that held the metal frame down around the screen started coming out and now the metal frame sticks up and will stab me in the cheek if I don't super glue it down every couple of weeks. Camera is simply awful. Yes it is but I didn't do anything to cause it. Sound quailty is poor to terrible. Pictures come out grainy no matter what. I'm in phone hell for 16 more months or until I break down and buy a new phone w/o contract discount.
Save yourself the trouble and get a different phone. I probably spend less than 2 hours a day on the phone, but the battery on this phone only lasted a day and a half. I ended up with a Motorola V195. The speaker only worked 90% of the time, I could not make conference calls (not without incredibly loud and irritating noises over the speaker), it would not recognize bluetooth headsets as it should, the camera was constantly turning on in my pocket, and the physical design of the phone meant it was constantly pulling out whiskers from my cheek, no matter how close I shaved. I returned the phone to T-Mobile after a week. It's a great basic phone. No camera, no mp3 player, but it has every phone-related option that a phone should have.
I like this phone but I'm on 3rd one using warranty and still over a year on phone plan. All have the same problem, display (both) stop working and all I have is a blank screen. Now warranty is up and I have to buy them, should take another 5 or so till plan is up
