Me and two other family members got this phone a couple years ago. I am posting a review after reminiscing about this horrible phone and looking it up on this website. The phone overall is okay for a dumb phone and did what it was expected to do. The problem I had with it was the graphic icons quit working right for no apparent reason and would show a "?" instead. This must of been a bad omen because soon after one of the three phones exterior screen cracked and broke. At first I gave him a hard time over it and I said he didnt take care of his phone. Well then another phone had its screen crack. My screen finally cracked while I was on the phone with someone, I never hit anything... it just broke while I was talking! Then the loudspeaker on the phones went out in the same order as the screens. They would sound really staticy at every volume level. And then suddenly once again in the same order every phones battery life went down to just a few hours even in standby. I bought a new battery on ebay thinking that was the problem, the seller made a mistake and shipped me 3 batteries so everyone got a new battery! Well it turns out the hardware on the phones had failed and were killing battery life. These phones all completely died in less than a year.

Pros

Worked okay for a dumbphone.

Cons

Exterior screen broke.
Loud speaker broke.
Internal components started to fail and drained the battery in less than 3 hours.

The phone randomly shuts off. I've had the phone replaced and after a few weeks the new one began shutting off as well. I had read some reviews before getting the phone in the first place and since only a few mentioned this problem I ignored it. My boyfriend also has this phone and has had the same problem. The smallest bumps and drops scracth the phone.

Pros

Simple phone
Ok battery life
Easy to use

Cons

Randomly shuts off mid-call/text or even just sitting in your pocket
Easily scratched

4. Best and Worst Phone For Me

25 May 2009 by DCL

83.3%8.3out of 10

I got this phone as a free upgrade through AT&T. It started out as a great phone. I loved the clarity and size of both screens. The camera was also a lot better than my previous phone. I loved all the themes and menu options too. I also thought texting was great. But only after about 4 months of having it, I took it out of my pocket and the outer screen had an internal crack and the the inner screen blinked on and off every 2 seconds. O had no idea of how it happened at all. I never thought of trying to get it fixed until now. And now I'm hoping I can get it back or a new one. The internal qualites are wonderful, but the external aren't so good.

Pros

Screens
Keypad
Camera
Themes
Menus
Micro SD

Cons

Micro SD behing battery
Poor quality materials
Can Scratch Eaisily

5. This is the worst cell phone I've ever owned in 9 years!

Firstly, the outer LCD screen cracked the first time I dropped the phone from about 3 ft above the ground.  Currently, the outer LCD screen is useless since all of it no longer works therefore not allowing me to screen calls without opening the phone.  The quality of the overall structure is poor and not durable.  Battery life is okay, but nothing to brag about.  My bluetooth function to transfer data to and from my computer is sketchy and rarely works smoothly (and no, it's not my computer, since it functions soundly with other bluetooth capable products.  The only thing I really like about this phone is the svelte feel of its keypad while texting, etc.  Also, its narrow and somewhat thin physical shape fits nicely in my front pants pockets.  Generally speaking, Nokia seems to have fallen behind its competitors and I do not recommend this phone or any other Nokia phone to others

Looked like a great phone, but then it started turning off by itself, getting voice mails for calls I never got, and frequently get network busy when I try to make a call.

Good phone for the money. I have had it for 8 months now and have no complaints. I have experienced random calls going direct to voicemail, with no indication of a missed call like some others have reported. but this has only happened 2-3 times. Took this phone to Turkey on vacation and it worked very well there too. In my opinion this is a great phone for the average phone user, who does not require some of the fancier features on more high end phones.

I'm now on my second Nokia 6555. My first one worked perfectly for 3 months after my Lg cg300 died after having it for a year and a half. I mean I dropped it a few times and didn't have any scratches plus it still worked. Since I'm a heavy texter, the batter life didn't last that long for me but that was ok as long as I wasn't out somewhere and needed it for an emergency. However one night it decided to not work anymore...I couldn't call out or recieve anything, so I had to send it back and got a new one. The new one is horrible; a few of my friends tried calling me and their calls went straight to my voicemail...I don't know what is wrong with it. I'm going to send it back. I like the looks of the phone, but it isn't the most reliable.

This is the worst phone I have ever had. I have had four within five months. That's because AT&T keeps sending me a new one. They all keep turning off by themself or showing a blank screen. Do not waste your time and money on this phone. It is not worth it.
