| msjazz79's Full Review: Nokia 8260 Cell Phone |
I bought this product because I was getting tired of my Sprint PCS service and Samsung 3500 phone. I decided to go with AT&T and look into the phones that they offered. Well I went with the Nokia 8260 because I enjoyed the look as well as the feel the phone.
Plus the features were most interesting. One of the first phones to offer two-way paging. It also has an exceptional battery life. One-touch access to voicemail, comes with a handsfree handset, instructions, and recharger. Holds up to 250 names, 8 days of standby time, up to 50 with appointments and reminders. Vibrating alert is also on this phone as well as Caller Grouping which allows you to set an alert sound for designated callers while other calls alert you silently I think one recommendation I would have is an infrared port like the 8290 model. Also some very nice cases that NOKIA has made for the phone normally retail for $24.99. Normal retail for the Nokia 8260 $199.99.
When I first used the phone I noticed that I wasn't getting good reception in my house but outside I would say it was very good, NOT EXCELLENT but it's getting better. Plus I've gotten many compliments on it as well. Let's face it I'm not only a techno gadget freak I also enjoy having some fashion sense as well. This product is definitely for those who enjoy putting their phone in a pocket and not worry about some heavy weight in their pants. Very light and quite durable I might add. It comes in three different colors read, blue, and grey. Also Southwestern Bell also offers this phone with their service.
