| gjleake's Full Review: Nokia 5110 |
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 very long standby time of up to 270 hours.
You can drop it and break the case and still get change out of $20 for a set of replacement parts. There are vibrating batteries, handsfree accessories, flashing antennae. This was the first of the customisable phones and still has the biggest range of addons.
If you can get one secondhand for less than $50, then it's well worth every cent.
