The Reception King!
by jpatakas2k ,May 23 '04
Pros: Beautiful Color Screen, RECEPTION, Camera, Bluetooth, etc.
Cons: Buggy OS, Large and Bulky, Keypad takes some getting used to
I had this phone for one week and returned it because the software was extremely buggy... kept crashing... Got another one and soon the same problem all over again. I like Symbian-based phones, too...

The phone has just about every gadget you can think of, except of course Picture Caller ID.. that was a headache. I think it would be good to mention that anyone who plans on using this phone for the "long haul" should probably bring a charger because the color LCD, although beautiful, just kills the battery. I got about 3 hours talktime out of it (I use just under 2000min a month) unless I was using the camera or playing games,it would drop to just over an hour talktime.

The phone is BIG, and will be a pain to carry in your pocket, but I don't think it's mean to be. The speakerphone is loud and clear.

The one thing I missed about this phone was that the reception was just phenomenal.. it'll blow you away how good it is.

I can hear caller BEFORE I answer
by epa-iii ,Mar 27 '05
Pros: Buttons should be at top
Cons: I Hear people before I answer
This is a great phone, but am I the only one that hears my caller talking BEFORE I answer the phone? It is not the auto answer feature either, I checked.
No one at Nokia or T-Mobile believes me. Nokia is blaming T-Mobile and T-mobile is blaming Nokia. If I am the only one with this problem then I would recommend buying this phone. I love the expandable memory and the ability to email pics ASAP. GREAT reception even in elevators!

Oh and the only other thing I would change on the phone would be to put the button at the top and the screen below, so I can dial with my thumb one handed with out bending my thumb down.

This phone can do A LOT! But kinda bulky...
by jer122 ,Feb 27 '05
Pros: Bluetooth functionality, Symbian operating system, Reception
Cons: Battery life, Bulky size, Camera resolution
Bought a branded T-Mobile 3650 off Ebay about a year ago for $200. Overall I am impressed with its features, Bluetooth functions, and RF reception! With its Symbian OS you can install practically a application to do anything you want. Since it has a OS it also really expands the functionality of Bluetooth to there you can send/receive files to other Bluetooth devices "really cool" for ringers and wallpapers. You can carrier easily unlock these too with a simple subsidy unlock code generator from the internet and use with other GSM carriers. Reception is by far the best I have had oh any GSM phone. The only negative things I can say about this handset is the battery life sucks "2 hours MAX talk time" and the size "not gonna fit in your pocket easily"

READ THE TRUE REVIEW RIGHT HERE!!!
by brandonoperana ,May 22 '04
Pros: Camera. Great Games. Huge Phone Book. Blue tooth and IrDa.
Cons: Size is a little big. The memory given is only 16 MB.
This is the only review you need to read. THis phone is great for young people and teens who want entertainment. I'm 15 and I only use the phone for pictures and the internet. It is pretty lightweight but long about 5 inches. It can record 9 secs of video. It takes about 200 pictures on high resolution onto the memory card. The pics look pretty good when viewing them on the tv or computer. If you are thinking of transfering music or ovies from your pc to the phone, forget about it, I tried, it doesn't work. The buttons are small and annoying, especially the 5 way key. Some good things are that you can record your own ringtones from the radio, I've tried, sure its bootleg, but it sounds good. You can assing ringtones and pics to different people in the phone book. All in all, this is a phone for showing off and having New cutting edge technology.

Pretty Darn Good
by puppylove12313 ,Feb 17 '04
Pros: Big screen, Bluetooth, Built-in Camara, and lots of extras!!!
Cons: Big size
This is a pretty cool cell phone. It is a pretty big cell phone, but it makes up for that with all of its awsome features. This phone has a built in camara that takes pretty good quality picture and it can also take 10 second long videos but their quality isn't that great. You can also send these picture and videos to other cell phones or even e-mail addresses, they usually cost like $25 but it varys for different service providers. This phone has 2 different games that I dont find that interesting. This phone is also bluetooth capable, whatever bluetooth means? The nokia 3650 is very durable because i have dropped mine more then 5 times and it still works great. If you would like to buy this phone don't pay like $300 for it because i got mine for free at this site www.hellocalls.com.

Best Phone You Can Get For T-MOBILE
by pkpp1233 ,Jun 08 '04
Pros: Video, Photos, Easy Menu, BLUETOOTH
Cons: Medium Sized
Everyone knows T-Mobile is the best cell phone service around. They have great reception and awesome customer service...and quite frankly one really good phone. I bought the Nokia 3650 a while a go because i loved its features. This phone has anything you can ask for, CAMERA, VIDEO CAMERA, BLUETOOTH!!!!, Infrared, MESSAGING, and AWESOME GAMES, GREAT RINGTONES, and HUGE SCREEN. The menu is amazing and it is almost like a computer. My friends say it is a little big, but to me that doesnt make a difference if a phone really really small, or just medium sized as long as it fits in my pocket. This phone is stylish and delivers great reception. I have never..not even once not had reception in any place i've gone to and that says a lot. You can get this phone for FREE if you just haggle for the price. This is the best buy you can get and I FOR SURE reccomment it to you.

Tech support finally talked me into ditching this phone for another model
by samphonic ,Jun 01 '04
Pros: A cornucopia of fantastic features.
Cons: Frail as a whiff of rose blossom on a spring day.
I got the web working long enough to waste a lot of money on downloading games and then the phone simply died. So I got a replacement and once I got it all set up it died. Exactly the same. Just a little, dim Nokia logo. So I got a replacement and got it all set up and then the email stopped working. Three 20-minute calls to ATTWS tech support and they finally convinced me to eat the $300 plus several hundred more on surprise internet charges and BUY from them another phone -- one that works. You are warned.

Good for Being Free
by willdrobins ,Oct 27 '03
Pros: Big display,GSM, SIM card,cool skins,outlook sync
Cons: GSM in Chicago, poor bluetooth,quiet ringer, slow sync
Used Amazon and T-mobile rebates to make this phone free. Otherwise, it is pricy. I love how you can synchronize with outlook calendar, task, and contacts. I wish the synchronization times were faster, even with bluetooth. I found a wireless headset that is compatible with this phone (bluetrek). However, when somebody calls, it only rings through the ear piece. The phone only vibrates. The bluetooth connection drops periodically. Not sure who to blame. I found a cool skin with a basketball look and feel.

Smarter than you think.. even than you
by johnnyblade ,Oct 17 '03
Pros: almost everything you can think of.. if not, programs are downloadable
Cons: funny keypad design, size is a little bigger
now this phone.. is like "WOW" how did they make this phone? Well for you high-tech freaks out there.. this phone is a must get, where do I start? well, it has color screen, bulit-in camera, bluetooth (allows you connect with your laptop or any devices that supports bluetooth) built in memory and also 16mb card included, many built-in programs, internet support, java support, video catpure, its more like a cell phone PDA, you can do soo much with it.
only thing about this phone is the size.. it never got to me, in fact most of my friends love this phone! the battery life is SUPER, it will last you very very long and the charging time is amazing.. 2 hours max its fully charged.

one of the smartest phone out there.. of course there are so much for the user to learn, or its very useless if you just need A PHONE to make calls and receive.

by sweet_ladee ,Apr 27 '04
Pros: great phone!
Cons: keypads are hard to use in the beginning
this is the cellular phone i own. in the Philippines, it's been out for over a year already. this is one of the best camera phones. It has a video recorder, it has bluetooth, where you can send pictures, sms messages, ringtones, all for free, under a screen name, although you have to be near each other when you do this, also the person you're sending these files to have to have bluetooth as well. the camera is pretty good too. it takes good picture, it has a recorder where you can ask people to talk into and use their voice as the ringtone when they call. you can change the memory card into a larger kb memory card. the covers are express on, so you can choose the colors of the covers. the keypads are hard to use in the beginning but you'll get the hang of it. Nokia has come out with the same phone but with the normal keypads as well. Here in the Philippines, these phones cost roughly around $245. No lines or no commitment attached to it. Take the phone and go kind of thing.

Nokia phone the wave of the future
by SkywalkerDB ,Dec 10 '03
Pros: tons of features, email, calendar, internet, and much more.
Cons: a bit bulky, expensive, sometimes gets poor signal
This phone is a must-have for gadget lovers. Although a bit bulky, the features are great. With all the features of a PDA, it keeps you organized and up-to-date. A large color screen is useful for the camera and video feature. The memory can be expanded to hold hundreds of photos. Easy to use features include voice dialing, speakerphone, email, message alerts, and internet/bluetooth capabilities.

One colorful brick....
by homecmk ,Nov 12 '04
Pros: has color and a camera
Cons: BIG, not user friendly
I cannot believe how large this phone is. This phone reminds me of the 6180's that people back in the day carried around and as scary as it sounds still do.

This phone does not fit in pocket or anywhere else and is a horrible piece of design. This is more a home or office phone. Doesn't even have a PDA considering it's size.

I like it!
by jbahneman ,Jan 27 '04
Pros: Lg screen w/ good resolution, easy to use
Cons: keypad layout isn't natural.
I had the Sony-Ericsson T-300 prior to this phone. It was terrible!! The Nokia 3650 has a huge screen, it's easy to hear the person you're speaking with, it has all the features you could ever want! It's easy to navigate through to menus and get to your phone directory.

The only downfall, the keypad is difficult to get used to, but on the upside, it discourages you from dialing while driving!
