Nokia 252 Cell Phone

Pros: Small, easy to use, No contracts
Cons: Long activation time

I had to be pulled into the world of cellular phones by my hubby (Payso) because I just never thought that we really needed one, and didn't want the added expense of another monthly payment. Fortunately for me, Nokia has solved the contract problem by...

Pros: Clarity, reliability, and the Tracfone Prepaid plan.
Cons: Battery life, advanced features lacking (Caller ID, Voicemail, call waiting, etc)

I once pledged to myself that I would never get a cell phone. I always hated it when some idiot would swerve or make some sort of dangerous action just because they were talking on a cell phone while driving. Because of this, I entrenched myself...

Pros: Light, compact, durable
Cons: Not well light, especially for night use

My husband really likes his Nokia 252. He works outdoors and hunts coon dogs at night. He finds it really handy when he gets in a 'jam' - has really saved the night - several times!

He says: It has good range, clarity and is real handy...

Pros: Great reception, and features
Cons: Faceplate and antenna break easily

The Nokia 252 is an all around great phone because it combines some of the features of a home phone and features of a good cell phone all in one small package. It has a memory for a telephone book, and also a log to tell you what calls you've missed and...

Pros: batery life, portability
Cons: little expensive

Nokia is synonymous with Cellular phone. This is a great phone to have. Keep it on for 2 days for recieving calls without recharging the batery. It also has two and a half hours of talking time. The phone is very light, I believe 6.4 ounces, and is...

Pros: Sound and Ringer Volume is Very high, easy programming
Cons: Not many features, must reactivate if no additional card is purchased

Well, it really isn't for me.. even though I'm recommending it. Its for my aunt who is 74 and has to make several trips to the doctor. She's one of those from the 'old school', that believes in working up to the day her babies were born, and will...

Pros: Good Features, Decent battery life, Durable
Cons: Battery Life diminished

The Nokia 252 is everything a cellphone user could ask for in a phone. First of all, the features that come with the phone were great. It allowed you to store up to 99 phone numbers. Once the numbers were stored, finding a number was very easy. This...

Pros: Small and compact
Cons: n/a

Finally we had a cell phone! My husband bought this before we left for Alaska in October of 1999. I thought it was a cute little phone. its easy to access and I learned how to use it fast! its not very heavy and fits perfect in my purse or bag. The...

Pros: portable, easy menu to navigate, shows signal strength
Cons: can't think of any

I love this phone. I had a phone with virtually no features compared to this one. It has caller id, a phone book, and a very easy menu to navigate through without having to use the instruction manual. Being able to change the face plate's color, even...

Pros: Light, small, clear as a landline
Cons: Not a bunch of extra features like rings, etc.

When I signed up for my new cellular plan, they asked if I'd like a new phone for $9.99. I couldn't believe the price, so I took it. What they gave me was the Nokia 252. If you are looking for a new phone, please read on!

Pros: price, great talk time, good stand by
Cons: old, not very ergonomic, analog

i used a nokia 252 for a good 4 months, never had a problem with the phone, servicing on the other hand...well, that's a whole different story.

The Good:

~light phone
~easy nokia operating system
~extended talk time
...

Pros: Durable and comes in some nice colors.
Cons: Poor battery life and bulkey.

Out of the three cellular phones I have owned this one was the most average one. It is big (or at least not the size I am used to) and doesnt have very good features. Theres only like 5 or 6 different kinds of tones for ringing you could choose.
...

Pros: Sleek, nice features, easy to use
Cons: Cuts out on half my calls.

Last year, I decided I wanted a nicer, smaller phone. The 252 was just what I had in mind...until I started using it. Previously I had a big clunky motorola that my carrier offered for 1 cent with a promotion. That thing wouldn't cut you off on a...

Pros: Stylish, compact, functional
Cons: can overheat

How good the the Nokia 252 is depends on who you talk to. Some people have listed cons of this phone that include dropped calls and poor clarity, but I suspect it has a lot more to do with the cellular network they're using, rather than the phone. In...
