| steve4157's Full Review: Nokia 5110 |
I recieved this phone from my parents after my brother upgraded from it to a Nokia 3310. It is on UK Vodafone on a Pay-as-you-go tariff.
This phone is an inch smaller than my previous phone (Bosch 509e - which is not available in the US)and is also slimmer in both width and depth. The interchangable X-press on covers are also very good to personalize your pone so it is instantly recognisable amongst other peoples phones.
The call clarity on this phone is excellent even in poor reception areas so it is always easy to hear what people are saying to you. The volume is also loud so you cannot fail to miss what other people are saying.
The features on this phone are also very good. It has a very good selection of ringtones although it is a shame you cannot download these from the internet or compose them yourself. To compensate for this, Nokia allows you to download operator logos to cover your network operator symbol (mine currently shows the Mercedes - Benz logo). This feature is again good to personalize your phone.
This phone has a good graphical interface so it is easy to use and also to make it easier to use it has the Navi-key which allows you to scroll down and up meaning that it eliminates the pressing of the keys so it is simpler to use.
Currently the battery life on it is a lot longer than my Bosch meaning that it only needs charging once every week - my Bosch needed charging once every two days on average. As well as the battery lasting longer, it is very slim so it does not add to the bulk of the phone.
Overall this phone is very easy to use and is good for light use.
