Pros: Small and light, battery is long life. Cons: Too many steps, ringing volume, transmission quality
KISS was an acronym given by one English Professor: "Keep-It-Simple,-Stupid". This acronym does not apply to the Nokia 5160. I bought this cell phone through an AT&T Wireless deal. The instructions were probably written by some ivory...

Pros: size, battery life Cons: none that I know of

So You've decided to get a cellular phone? You want a Nokia but are confused about which one to buy? So was I.

Pros: faceplates, price, battery life Cons: Games are lame
The 5160 has been a good phone. Very clear, problem free reception. I've had two of them as I dropped the first one, and it cracked the antenna. Went to AT&T Store. A few friends have the same phone, and they say they have had problems with the phone...

Pros: Range, Clarity, Size, Options, Changeable Face plates Cons: Price and Manual is lengthy
Last week I purchased two Nokia 5160 phones, one for me and one for my wife. I have always wanted a cell phone because my wife and are constantly on the go. I thought spending $150 on each phone was kind of expensive but I thought if I didn't just buy...

Pros: The games are great when you're bored Cons: The clip destroys the phone =(
After purchasing a Nokia 5160 back in October 1999, I have nothing but problems with the phone.. However, when you first get it, you're so amazed at the new features that the phone has to offer (including that 'Snake' game that gets you through those...

Pros: Easy to use features Cons: Display breaks easily
I originally bought this phone as my main phone in my dorm room, because phone service on campus is so expensive. It has also become a "work phone", because with my internship, I am on the road constantly at different locations.

Pros: Compact, Efficient Cons: Looks
Although the 5160 is a nice phone, I think the consumer would be better off spending a few extra bucks to get the much neater 6100 series phones. Until recently, I myself had a 6100 phone and was more than happy with reception, sound quality, signal...
