Nokia 6162 Cell Phone

Pros: Lightweight, many features, easy to program
Cons: Can fall apart easily if dropped

As a part of my job, I carry a company cell phone, so that I can be easily reached if necessary. I was used to carrying a Quallcomm (see my review at: http://madyl.epinions.com/./elec-review-5D5B-6E76CF9-393C733D-prod6), which is a much larger phone...

Pros: Flip-cover to protect keys, better keypad than 6160, lots of talk/standby time, easy to use interface
Cons: Some find the flip cover awkward, a little tall to comfortably fit in pockets

I'm going to focus first on the difference between the 6160 and 6162 because they are both comparable phones, then talk a little about why the Nokia 6100 series is currently the top choice in value and performance.

The 6160/6162 debate rages...

Pros: Easy to use Nokia operating system, flip cover protects keypad
Cons: Doesn't browse the Internet on AT&T like the new Ericsson phone

When I switched from Sprint PCS to AT&T Wireless, this was the phone that I bought. I had previously used a different Nokia model that looks the same but doesn't have the flip cover with Voicestream Wireless, so I knew that Nokia phones were terrific...

Pros: Small, Compact, Light, Flip
Cons: No vibrating battery

The Nokia 6162 is a wonder little phone that has many great features. Actually it has all the same features as the 6160 except the 6162 has a flip on it. I prefer the flip to the other in that with the flip you are not pushing the buttons all the time...

Pros: Active Flip, Good Set of Features
Cons: Small size - Easy to misplace

I recently switched Cellular Providers, to AT&T Wireless, and when I did, my Nokia 5160 would no longer work.

So I did my research into the 2 phones I was interested in, the Nokia 6160, and the 6162.

The only difference in...

Pros: Battery life, sound quality, ease of use
Cons: Size, cost

The 6162 is a great phone and in my estimation is worth its somewhat high price. Here are the pros and cons:

Pros:
-Incredible battery life for both standby and talk time. However, when you are outside the digital area of the network it...

Pros: All
Cons: None

I bought Nokia 6160 as soon as it came out. My cell phone has become my primary phone, and Nokia 2160 was too big. At first, I was very happy, here are some pros and cons:

- The battery life is awesome. It will last 2 days on 1hr a day...

Pros: Vibrating battery available, number search, easy to read
Cons: No voice activated dialing

I got my new cell phone in December. So far, I love it.

I actually got it for free, because of the rebates they were offering at the time.

Actually, I was going to get the same phone, but without the flip (because it was about $50...

Pros: battery life, memory, size
Cons: none

I just replaced my old Motorola StarTac with a new Nokia 6162. So far I love it! It seems to have clearer reception than the StarTac. But, the feature I like most is the battery life. I have the extended life battery and I now only charge it once a week....

Pros: Flip cover, clarity, light-weight, good plan
Cons: price

When you think of cell phones you think of Nokia. They are among the best cell phones put on the market. The Nokia 6162 is the best cell phone yet that I have had. I use it for work and I use it for personal uses too. The Nokia is a great phone that...

Pros: Tons of accessories, light, great sound
Cons: A tad bit expensive

I am a former Sprint customer and I am much happier with my Nokia 6162. This phone is great. It has 35 different ring sounds, and can hold a lot of phone numbers. One of the features I really like is that there is this option called Caller Groups....

Pros: Small,clear tone,easy to use
Cons: none yet

I purchased the Nokia 6162 cell phone after looking at hundreds of similar phones. I travel alone much of the time and i wanted a small phone that would fit easilly in my purse or "belly bag". The Nokia is a perfect size and the keys are...

Pros: Talk time, flip cover, menu functions
Cons: fading monitor, weight/size

Overall, this is a decent phone. However, there are two problems I had with it. The first one I encountered multiple times (twice) and I ended up switching to a Motorola Startac phone as a result of it. The screen faded on me twice and I couldn't see...

Pros: Small, very easy to use
Cons: no vibrating alert option

I have owned several different cellular phones. Nokia, by far, exceeds the other brands that I have owned.

The 6162 is small, light, and easy to use. It is very clear, most people don't realize that I am on cellular phone. The address...

Pros: Face-Plates, Auto-Redial, Key-Lock, etc. etc. etc
Cons: so many damn choices for face plate!!!

In the real world market of cell-phones, it very easy to say something like, 'ehh, they're all the same, ill just get a cheap one with a good warranty.' If you don't want great features such as 'Auto-redial', 'Keypad Lock', and 'Voice-Mail Capability',...
