Pros: resistant, long life, functional
Cons: no IR

For obvious reasons (if you check my profile), I'm mainly interested in cheap stuff. I bought this phone last year for a reasonable $100.
I have been and still am extremely satisfied with it.

My reasons:

Long battery...

Pros: Dependable, alarm clock, good battery, can change the face
Cons: Can't download new ringtones vibrating battery drains the battery

This phone is a superb model (I actually have the Nokia 5146 but it is the same as the 5110 just with the vibrating battery -
Epinions do not seem to list this model). Let me go through it with you

Weight
Not too heavy but...

Pros: A great, reliable, very well made phone
Cons: Nothing worth mentioning

I bought my first cell phone in June 1999. It was June 12 exactly, my 20th birthday. I was happy I finally got it. Now I too could get 'mobile'. Whatever it means.

Actually it happens that as long as you don't posses a cell phone, you don't...

Pros: good reception,voice clarity,tough,long battery life,large screen and pleasant graphics
Cons: poor finishing ,looks dated now,single band

the 5110 is the first nokia to feature the unique "navi key" concept for you non nokia users out there it means you can avail most menu functions and tasks just by using one button.its not so much for the ease it offers but for the sheer beauty...

Pros: Cost-effective. Sturdy. Ease of Use.
Cons: Loose Battery Slot. Hard to press keys

When it comes to mobiles, Nokia 5110 packs all the features an average user would need. At the same time, it is a very economical on the pocket. Battery life is great with a full charge giving a 2.5 day standby time.

Screen is quite big with...

Pros: reliable, long talk time, wide availability of spares
Cons: a bit bulky, doesn't have intuitive look-ahead on SMS typing

The 5110 is still one of the best phones around. If it was launched on the market today it would still stack up well. Although a bit bulky compared to the latest products is is tougher than many, is the right size to fit in a man's hand properly, has a...

Pros: Solid, good range, vibration mode (with suitable battery)
Cons: Heavier and less feature-laden than other (more expensive) phones

So far I've had 3 makes of mobile phones. The first was one I got free, but was so ridiculously large and unwieldy that I looked like an Communist-era East European pimp with it. The second one was a flip Motorola, which had abysmal reception; indoors, I...

Pros: Good feature range, changeable cover, durable.
Cons: Size is too big now with new models coming out.

My very first personal mobile phone was a Nokia 5110, bought second hand by a friend of mine, and given to me.

I used this phone for quite along time, until one day I left it behind somewhere, and that same friend ended up buying me a Nokia...

Pros: Very reliable. Good features. Easy to use.
Cons: Can't download ringtones from Internet

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...

Pros: Great all-round phone.
Cons: No inbuilt vibrating alert.

This was the phone that Nokia sold the largest number of, and was the first 'ubiquitous' phone, it cemented Nokia's role as the premier producer of mobile phones. Pretty much everyone had it, which was a great testament to its success. Sure now it might...

Pros: It is very useful and cheap
Cons: Old generation.

When we buy a new mobile the most useness is to communication. Other function is less important. The Nokia5110 is in the market for over two yeas. But until now there are still many persons use it and some people want to use it. Why are there so many...

Pros: Entertaining, practical, affordable, durable
Cons: Not much of a high-tech thing

The Nokia 5110 cellphone to me is the most practical phone to own. Considering its small size which could slip into the side pockets of your pants, its basic yet useful and practical features, its durability, and its cost, the 5110 is for the person who...

Pros: reliable, easy to customize, user friendly
Cons: almost too small

I received this phone with a call plan at no additional charge over two years ago. It is a great phone and coincidently, the Army has adopted it in some cases as an off-the-shelf cell phone.

Since it is one of the most popular phones, you...

Pros: Can be personalized and accessories are easy to source.
Cons: Restricted to only provided ring tones.

Yes,the 5110 is a little dated now and yes, it is restricted in it's functions. But it is versatile through it's popularity, this means that accessories are widely available and cheap!

The phone itself can now be bought at a very low price,...

Pros: Solid, good range, vibration mode (with suitable battery)
Cons: Heavier and less feature-laden than other (more expensive) phones

So far I've had 3 makes of mobile phones. The first was one I got free, but was so ridiculously large and unwieldly that I looked like an Communist-era East European pimp with it. The second one was a flip Motorola, which had abyssmal reception; indoors,...
