Nokia 5185i Cell Phone

Pros: 40 RingTones, Faceplates,By Nokia
Cons: Cant Download Ringtones,not loud enough!

If you have read my review on the Motorola Talkabout T8160, you know that I have a multitude of cell phones ranging from a Qualcomm 860&2035, to this Nokia 5185i&6160, to the Motorola T8160&550i, and also the Sony/Qualcomm CMD-500. Anyways, my Nokia has...

Pros: Very good size, easy to follow programming, not fancy.
Cons: Has to lock keys to avoid dialing if you put it in your purse.

I had my first Nokia 3 years ago - and this make is still my favorite little thing. Not too big - not too small. Gives you the option of having an air-time package or just use a card. Very easy to program everything in there to your personal liking -...

Pros: Nokia menu/functions.
Cons: Flimsy. Below average quality.

In the past I have been a loyal Nokia customer. I started with the 232 then the 252 then 6125 and LOVED them all. I have always had multiple accounts and multiple phones. I honestly can not believe this phone was made by Nokia. The very first week I...

Pros: Size, faceplates, accessories, games, rings, versatility... etc.
Cons: Faceplates scratch easily :( Volume doesn't go high enough?

I got this phone about 4 months ago. I was so jazzed, these things rock! They're so cute. Not only that, but the kind I got from the service (Verizon) was the smaller, lighter one. It has a much smaller silhouette. *Coolness*
Actually, the first one...

Pros: Good memory function, snake, good call clarity, price
Cons: Nokia's poor CDMA implementation, no WAP, had to have phone replaced

This was literally the first phone that I have that was worth it's salt. First, I must mention the positives of this phone. Nokia did an excellent job at designing a user interface that made the phone easy to use. I was able to pick it up and use it...

Pros: Many, many features.
Cons: No vibrate feature.

This Nokia and the 5100 series in general are excellent phones. A friend of mine has one, her mom has one, and my dad just got one. They are the most feature packed phones on the market today. My favorite part about this phone is the many ring tones...

Pros: Price, excelent features for such a cheap phone, good construction
Cons: Bad power management

Another number to remember with “Nokia” slapped in front of it
Let’s face it; Nokia makes a lot of cell phones. And yes, like every other company that makes anything, they like to give unique model numbers to their various products.

Pros: clear signal. Nice battery life. Small
Cons: scrolling through address book is annoying

I will keep this brief. I really like this phone. I have had it for about 6 months now and i haven't had any problems, i have dropped it a few times and it is still in perfect condition. I am impressed with the battery life. I talk an average of 30...

Pros: Slim, sleek and does what it's supposed to do
Cons: My battery dies very quickly...not enough ring tones.

I upgraded to the Nokia 5185i in December of 2000 after I had problems with my Samsung. I'll admit, I'm a girl, I wanted a phone with switchable faceplates. Plus, I had always heard good things about Nokias, so I figured I'd go with it, since it was...

Pros: Great clarity, small and light, many convenience features and durable.
Cons: None so far!

I recently came back to current times and got a cell phone. It amazes me how quickly it becomes indispensable. Very soon you feel naked without it, isn't that silly? I love my little Nokia, it has really simplified my life. I never have to worry about...

Pros: Slim, Colorful Covers, Li-Ion Battery, Clear Reception
Cons: Pull Up Antenna

I have had this phone for about three monthes now and I do have two other 5100 series phones so I can compare. I have the 5190, the 5160, and of course the 5185i. I just bought this phone awhile ago for use with the Verizon network. I am pleased at a...

Pros: Versatile face plate exchanges, 39 ring tones, Caller ID, 3 Games, Call log
Cons: Not web enabled

My sleek, slim, smooth cellular is a Nokia 5185i. Simplistic, yet ready to please, this phone has many features making it an excellent bargain considering the affordability. Understand though, if you are in the market for a mobile phone with...

Pros: Ease of use, features, overall quality rocks
Cons: Bulkier than some newer phones

This is a great, reliable phone. I purchased this phone after coming to my senses and getting rid of my StarTac. This easy to use, functional phone was such a welcome relief.

One of the best things about this phone is how easy it is to use....

Pros: Good old Nokia menus and features
Cons: Volume problems with earphones, no dedicated "END" button

I previously had AT&T service with a Nokia 6160 phone and had gotten very spoiled by its features, durability, and overall quality (AT&T coverage in MD/VA did leave something to be desired). I recently switched to Verizon here in MD and wanted the same...

Pros: Light weight, great clarity, easy functions, easy to use.
Cons: None so far!

I’m 16 and just got a Nokia 5185i two weeks ago. Up until then, I've used my mom's cell phone...another Nokia that doesn't even have a chance against this one. My mom got this one for me for my birthday. I have to confess- I love it! I've wanted one...
