| amazingdm's Full Review: Nokia 5160 Cell Phone |
Ouch, my ear hurts! This phone physically hurts my ear,
you know, where the cartiledge is? It has some weird effect on it when I barely press my ear up against the receiver portion of the phone.
The battery sticks out and makes the phone very bulky and heavy. Trust me, for a phone this small, this thing is EXTREMELY heavy! It's a pain to lug around in a pocket.
I got this as one of those "free phone offers" as long as you sign up for the service for two years. of course I had to pay 200 dollars deposit, and then I would get it back a year later. It's been a year, they only gave me 150 back!
Anyway, the phone is bulky, is good for a couple months and then deteriates very quickly in quality such as reception, sound quality, how loud other people can hear you when you speak into it etc...
It's not the best phone out there so I suggest looking around for something that's lightweight and comfortable, I wish I did.
