Very Good Phone [Posted on 2008-07-10] I have to say that this is one of the better phones that Tmobile offers. It holds up well to every day use, battery is good, music through headphones is amazing and the camera is not too bad at all for a phone. As for the person with the ridiculous comments about it being so bad and that it exploded????? Whatever.
dont get this PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [Posted on 2008-07-14] Okay, dont get me wrong this phone is okay since it has a music player but at the end of the day this phone sucks!!!!!!!!!! The only reason why I got it was becuase it was cheap for me to renew my contract with T-mobile. It was not worth it. You cant listen to the radio unless you have the EXACT headphones that T-moblie gives to you, otherwise you have to plug in a stupid audio converter device. The camera takes pics that look like they were developed in 1974. And the stupid thing locks its buttons every 5 minutes. I have to unlock or open the phone every time want to look at something.
Very low quality item from Nokia [Posted on 2008-07-29] Bought this one for my wife during our contract renewal. We have been loyal customers to our carrier since 1999. Very first month phone starting to act up. T-mobile renewed it. The second phone was not better either.
The phone's music features were much better than what this one was designed for: talking on the phone. What a disappointment!!!
Not the best phone...at all! [Posted on 2008-09-05] For the first three months that I had the phone, everything was fine. But after three months, the volume just completely died! The alarm, the ring, the music player, everything. Now the sound works sometimes (it took three weeks for it to start working again and that was totally at random, nothing I did), but it's off and on. Sometimes it's quiet, sometimes it goes in and out while it's ringing, sometimes normal, and sometimes just dead. And it's frustrating to not have external ringing volume control, although holding down the pound key will switch between silent and normal. Another problem is I could not get the voice activated controls to work. I'm sure they do, I just couldn't figure it out, and I've never had trouble using voice activated controls with any other phone I've had. Another problem I've had is that sometimes even when I have a signal, a call will just end for no reason. Granted sometimes I do accidentally hit the end call button, which is of course not a problem with the phone, but sometimes there is honestly no reason for it. Also, it has a pretty short battery life, so if that bothers you I recommend a Motorola as they tend to have long battery life (although be warned, in my experience Motorola phones tend to freeze and also do not typically have the signal quality of other phones). Another problem I've recently had with this phone is that the games on my phone stopped functioning properly. Also, this phone doesn't have as much memory as I would like, so that was disappointing. But fortunately it does have a micro SD card slot, and mine came with a card already in it. Finally, as for my phone background, whenever I try to use a picture I took myself as the wallpaper, it doesn't show up as "full screen" which is what the phone calls right side up. If there's a way to do it, I haven't found it!
The pluses are that the external controls for the music player and radio are nice, although it'd be nice if you didn't have to plug in your headphones to listen to the radio. The stereo headset that came with the phone was nice too. The buttons were easy to use, and I like using this phone for texting.
But when you weigh the pros and cons, for me this just isn't the right phone. I've had the phone 8 and 1/2 months now, and I'm looking for a new one. I usually try to keep phones for a year at least, but not this one. I was using my "back up phone" half the time after only 3 months of owning this phone, but I recently gave my back up phone to my sister. It's definitely time for a new one.
The phone is crap [Posted on 2008-09-20] I have had this phone for ten months and within in the first few hours of having it the screen was already scratch from putting it in my pocket. The phone also has a very crappy battery and my friends who have the same phone say that their batteries don't hold power well either. The buttons on the front and sides of the phone are not to great either. All of the buttons on the front of my have at some point either got stuck or just haven't worked. On my friends' phones, they have had many of the buttons fall off. The music player on the phone is okay. The phone also has a problem with the password and security section because even when i first got it it would not let me set a password or make it password protected. A good thing about the phone is that it can fall down a flight of stairs and still work the same as it did before. Oh, yeah the back is very difficult to take off and as time goes by it gets even more difficult.
