Pros: Durable, good battery time, clear, nice features Cons: Larger and heavier then some other phones on the market
The Nokia 5160 is the first mobile phone I have ever personally owned, but compared to phones of family or friends that I have used I have been impressed by what by Nokia. I don’t demand much out of a mobile phone, I just use it for calling family...

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: Easy to use, small, light, great battery life Cons: Have to purchase different battery for silent "vibrate" alert
After doing extensive research on mobile phones in fall '99, I went with this little masterpiece. It's one of the best products I have ever used, and I've become something of an evangelist because it's:
Light and compact.
Not much bigger...

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: Small Cons: accessories
I bought this product because it was small, versatile, and the only phone in a reasonable price range for the plan I wanted with AT&T. My phone in it's RadioShack leather case is perfect, I have dropped it, smashed it, bashed it, and anything else...

Pros: range of features on the phone, interchangeable faceplate, DROP tested Cons: Mike can be covered with finger, short Ant.
If you are looking for a phone that works great in areas that may otherwise have reception problems then this is the phone for you. I live in what is referred to as the Mon-Valley area in PA, we are completely surrounded by mountains. I have never been...

Pros: Looks, durability, easy to use Cons: Price
The Nokia 5160 is a great phone although it may seem a bit expensive. I originally bought this phone only because of it's great looks but I have found that the features on this phone are awesome.
The phone is very attractive and easy to use...

Pros: features are easy to use, very light to carry around Cons: doesn't have a plug for a headset
Finally after about 5 cell phones I finally found one that is almost perfect. I got the phone at first only because I thought it was stylish, because you could change the face to different colors. After I got the phone and actually talked on it, I...

Pros: excellent quality Cons: none
Nokia is the best yet. This is our second cell phone. We had one a few years ago, when they were not as advanced as they are now. We couldn't believe how light and small the Nokia is. I bought one for my husband for christmas and we have really enjoyed...

Pros: good reception, ease of use, neat features Cons: auto dial with one button - easy to make a mistake
I recently purchased a Nokia 5160 from my wireless service provider when I upgraded to digital service. I had previously been using a Motorola flip phone. I was initially worried about giving up the flip cover over the keypad, but the 5160 come with a...

Pros: Lots of features and values Cons: Not the smallest phone
The Nokia 5000 series creates a great balance of features and value. You get enough memory, enough talk time, enough personalization. You pay a small amount when buying with a service plan. Some plans will even give it for free.
There is enough in...

Pros: good quality good price Cons: can not set a silent ring without special battery
I paid $59.00 for the phone and even received a $50.00 rebate so that was the main reason I chose this phone but what I got for the price was a great phone.
This phone is really packed with features for the price. It has caller ID, a 100...

Pros: rebate and easy of use Cons: expensive accessories
The less expensive air time packages for digital service made the decision to "go digital" and easy one. Knowing nothing about digital cell phones, I am very happy with the 5160. It has capabilities for both analog and digital service and...

Pros: Affordable, Easy to use Cons: Very very common...not for the excuisit
Wow...
This phone in my opinion is responsable for blowing the wireless communication networks wide open. When released, the Nokia 5100 series, introduced simplicity and affordablity into a world of unknown bounds.
After owning...
