Dependable phone

Phone owned for more than a year

It has the build quality common for a nokia unit, but not like the 3310. Great reception, can hear clearly on the other calling end. Of course, great battery given that it's a basic phone... those times when a battery is not a big deal, because most phones, i know, have good battery life.

my first phone

Phone owned for more than a year

when we went to buy this particular Nokia, my first phone, I was so incredibly excited and as soon as we had purchased it I opened the package and took the device to use!
I use it was about 2 years to finally temporary subscriptions Nokia 6320i model and then samsung star S5230.
it was a really good phone in many ways, in fact I even use it with my nokia x7

Phone owned for

Im writing from brisbane queensland australia,iv owned only 1 other nokia in the past a 5210 back in 01-then after that i had a sony erricson that lasted me for 4 yrs-while the erricson was high on features and high end mobile phone technology it lacked the basic advancements that we have made like polyphonic ringtones-i absolutely adore the sound of the polyphonic ringtones-which did not work in my favor as the t68 featured every need the mobile phone user required except the POLPHONIC RINGTONES-my erricson was nearing the end of its life with the constant switching on and off by itself and sound quality-i was looking for a new phone on and off-then one day i was walking through my local shopping mall when i came across a vodafone shop-i scanned the phones on offer-and was looking for something reliable first and something that was not gonna burn a hole through my pocket-then i saw it-it was a goodlooking phone and the price!only 80bux!!i grabbed it-my first new phone in 4 years!i was aprehensive out of loyalty to the t68 which had been my best friend for the last four years-i paid the cash,was handed the bag with my brand new phone-when i got home i opened the shiny box and there she was-initially it took over 2 hours to first charge up which is normal i guess-then i turned it on-the niokia logo flashed in front of me-then the blue sky of the background beggoned me to explore this new device-it had everything i needed and was missing a few things that i yearned for like bluetooth and wap capabilities-BUT it had the POLYPHONIC ringtones-yippee!!!loud speaker- and an extras menu-THIS PHONE-the nokia 1600 is smartly designed-its looks suit its capabilities-it doesnt pretend to offer more than it can-its a smart phone with clear sound quality,is capable and sending and recieving messages-and has great inbuilt features for its price range-
has a nice well lit display-the message tone features are great-and hasnt disappointed yet on the alarm clock feature-bottom line- a simple goodlooking phone that will definately keep you in touch with the people in your life-overall-i purchased this phone in june/july 06-so i ahve had it for a year-and it shows no signs of leaving my waist for atleast another few years-GREAT PHONE-gets the job done first time-which really-despite all the technology on phones these days failing and getting repaired is the one thing we al really rely on-peace>

Perfect phone!

Phone owned for

If you just want a phone out of it, this is gonna be the best . The battery life is perfect and also.. the small size lures me to carry it on without going for a higher end model. Its firmware is stable and has never crashed .

Altogether , a perfect economy PHONE!
