Nokia 5160 Cell Phone

Pros: CLARITY!, features, battery length, good signals, weight, size, everything is WONDERFUL
Cons: If you find one, please tell me!

This is an absolutely wonderful phone. From the minute I used my mom's, I knew I needed one for myself. I've had a history of bad cell phones, and this one taught me that yes, there are really great cell phones out there.
Let me elaborate on...

Pros: small compact easy to use
Cons: battery heats up on calls more than 20 minutes in length

Wireless phones sure have come a long way. I started using wireless back in the 80's when phones cost nearly 10 times as much as this gem! Since the day's when a "Bag phone" was portable, I have now come to realize that I really do enjoy my...

Pros: its small and lightweight
Cons: none

I absolutely LOVE this phone!! Its light weight and small enough to fit into a pocket. It has so many neat and easy to use features:
a voice mail button, so you can just press the button and automatically be transferred to your voice mail.

Pros: cute, can change face plates to match outfit, face plates are reasonable priced, small phone, easy to use
Cons: games waste battery time

The beginning of this year US Cellular was offering a 1,000 minute special and you get a free Nokia 5160 Cellular phone, phone charger, and one free face plate. My parents wanted to take advantage of this and renew their contracts with US Cellular so we...

Pros: Light, better menu than 6160, compact
Cons: none

I recently switched jobs and had to give up my Nokia 6160. I was very happy with it but am even happier with the newer, less expensive 5160. The 5160 has some of the more useless features of the 6160 removed. I also find the navigation of the menu on...

Pros: Easy to use, Good Reception, Not too much clutter, long battery life
Cons: not too durable

When I was looking at phones, I was debating between this and the 6160. I thought that this is the same phone except without most of the useless features of the 6160. If you want a phone that has INCREDIBLY long battery life, very good reception, and a...

Pros: Clear calls, light, nice on the eyes
Cons: Addiction to the games!

This is one of the greatest items I have ever bought. The Nokia 5160 cellular phone is absolutely excellent in every way. I have owned many phones, and recently have switched to this guy. The many added features with this phone made me want to buy it....

Pros: Good size, durable, plenty of options
Cons: Small buttons

The best cell phone I've had out of the 3 I've owned. I wish I still had it, but the carrier I changed to doesn't work with the phone I had. Never had any issues with it. Light weight, sturdy, good battery life, and never lost a signal. I could be in...

Pros: Good battery life; easy to find numerous accessories; lightweight; easy to use
Cons: Occasionally seems to have trouble picking up my voice

My wife and I purchased a pair of Nokia 5160 phones as part of a “two-for-one” special offered by our mobile phone service provider (Bell Atlantic). Since the special offer was tied to a calling plan that was more beneficial to us, it was, as the saying...

Pros: The 5160 never says die!
Cons: None for the price & durability

Remember back in the day when all you'd hear about Timex is "takes a licking and keeps on ticking?," well it should be brought back for the Nokia 5160, this phone just doesn't BREAK.

I was looking around for a cell phone and service,...

Pros: Light Weight, Easy to Use, 8 to 10 Days Standby Time
Cons: The Only Con I Have is Sound Quality, and that's due to Poor Service, not the Phone!

Nokia makes a FANTASTIC phone. I carried a Motorola for a couple of years and insisted that it was by far the best… I was dead wrong. My new Nokia is lighter and has all of the necessary bells and whistles that I needed.

My memory is short,...

Pros: real light, great features
Cons: accessories where hard to find

I have always been against cell phones I feel the plans are way over priced and the bills hide a lot of hidden charges...well I still feel that way, but have come to realize that cell phones are a neccessary evil and the added convience is worth the...

Pros: Lightweight and compact
Cons: None Yet!

We have a Nokia 5160. My husband uses this phone out on the farm. We have had a good cel phone experience with this phone. We never have any problems hearing people nor have we had complaints with people not being able to hear us. The only time its hard...

Pros: Colors, Reliabilty, Games
Cons: Expensive

This is by far the best phone I have ever had and I have been through many. The phone is small and lightweight. It fits perfectly into any pocket and doesn't hog space in the car.

That is not what I love so much about it...

Pros: Great battery life
Cons: Size: kind of big for pockets

I have been using this phone for over a year now and I can't think of anything I don't like about it except that the newer phones are somewhat smaller and sleeker than the 5160. The 5160 is fine to throw in a bag but a little big to carry in a pocket....
