| regularopinion's Full Review: Nokia 6185 Cell Phone |
I purchased the Nokia 6185 after I had the Slim Qualcomm when I was with PrimeCo. The Qualcomm was a good phone, but I had a problem where the talk button stopping functioning. I went through three phones before getting rid of it and buying the more expensive Nokia 6185.
I liked the Nokia 6185 because it had alot of features that I liked. I thought this was the best phone you could buy when it first came out. Now I am in need of other features that the 6185, unfortunately, does not have
CALENDER
This is a nice feature. You can store Birthday's, Anniversary's, and other Important dates and the phone Updates them every year.
SILENT ALERT
This was built right in the phone. No need to get a seperate battery. And, it was strong and was sure to get your attention.
RECEPTION
The Reception was good. There were times when I had problems hearing the other person, and they couldn't hear me to well. The sounds would be Distorted. NOTE: Alot of people think that by holding the phone right infront of there mouth and talking/yelling into it helps the other caller hear them better, but it actually makes it harder to make out what you are trying to say.
DESIGN/APPEARANCE
I like the design of the 6185. it has a professional look to it, yet a cool look. I love the beltclip. You just snapped the phone onto it and hit a button to release the phone when you get a call.
OTHER STUFF
There are also a few features that are helpful, like blocking a number from your phone. But, you have to look for them in the options. There are also a few games(four I think) for when you get bored. You could also buy different Face Plates. The caculator is nice too.And there are alot of ringer tones to choose from.
I really liked the 6185, but I am use to other features , like the Wireless Web, Speaker phone, and Voice Memo because I use them for work. I currently own the NEXTEL i85s. I will be reviewing it soon.
ALSO, I have noticed alot of reviewers who review a cell phone based on the cell/PCS service that they have. I think this is an unfair review for the product because the phone(and I have experienced this first hand)is independent from the service and works different depending on which service you have. But, the features, battery life, design, etc... of the phone are pretty much the same.
