I Love MY Nokia Cell Phone

Through the last several years, I have owned many different Cell Phones of a variey of different brands. I kept changing and searching for one that met all my expectations. I finally found one that...

Pros: Great Size/Great Storage
Cons: Reception, Ringing Tone Volume, Battery Life

I got my Nokia 5190 phone about nine months ago to replace my analog phone that was getting ancient. I bought a service plan that allowed me to have 1000 weekend minutes and 500 daily minutes. I use my phone mostly at night and on the weekends so the...

Pros: Small, light, long battery life.
Cons: Poor reception.

Recently a friend gave me his old Nokia cell-phone. I have one of my own, a Samsung, but I was having a lot of problems with the service provider -- mainly they overcharge and do not record incoming numbers so it is impossible to verify billing unless...

Pros: Small, light weight, lots of features.
Cons: I will never use all of the features!!!

***Update -- September 2003: I had to get another phone. My new one is a Nokia, but I don't like it nearly as much. The back kept slipping, which caused the phone to discharge. When I took my Nokia 5190 to the Cingular store, I was told that ...

Pros: Small size for a non folding phone, good battery life, intuitive O/S.
Cons: Poor reception leads to frequent call dropping.

Well I signed up to Pacific Bell a little over a year ago and initially received a Startac 7000g phone. I used that for a year, and when it came time to renew my service I took advantage of their trade in offer ($149 credit towards the purchase of a new...

Pros: small, games, great battery life
Cons: how'd i make that call?

Hello. My name is Mike. And I'm addicted to "Snake."

Snake is one of the games on the Nokia 5190, it's basically a clone of the ancient "Centipede." The basic idea is that you're this pixelated snake trying to gobble up...

Pros: Features, Ease of Use
Cons: Plain looking, Indoor connection intermittent

Just like the little ubiquitous car, the Nokia 5190 is functional and cheap, with enough flare to keep most users' happy. What's more is most of the times it's free with special promotions from the service provider for signing up on a 1 yr contract (I...

Pros: Size, weight, ease of use, features (hands-free, etc.)
Cons: Transmission quality not too great

Background


About six years ago I bought my first Nokia as part of a plan. It was the 101 and cost me $15. The phone itself weighed as much as a full can of Coke and was physically huge. It had outstanding reception and never dropped a...

Pros: Compact, Customizable, Cheap if you know where to look
Cons: Could be clearer, semi-dated

I recently purchased Nokia's 5190 phone with a calling plan from Cingular Wireless. About everyone has a cell phone or is planning on getting one these days. It takes care of having to carry around the $.35 to call someone from a pay phone when your...

Pros: Plenty of accessories and face covers, nice menu system, durable
Cons: Has space for only one custom ring tone, no voice-activated dialing or conference calling

This Nokia phone is my first wireless phone, and along with service by Cingular Wireless (be sure to read my review of their service in Los Angeles!), it ain't a bad combination. The only reason I got this phone was that it was free with a one-year...

Pros: convenience, affordable
Cons: reception problems

After years of carrying around coins to use the pay phones when I had to call home, I finally got a cell phone. My mom knew the guy who ran the Nokia booth near her workplace, so I sat and talked with him. I grilled him for 30 minutes about possible...

Pros: Small size
Cons: Since so many people have this phone, whenever you hear one ring, you always look and see if it is yours! ;)

The Nokia 5190 is the best cellular phone that I have had. It has several great features which I like.

Size
This phone weights about 6 oz. It fits easily into your purse, pocket, car, practically ANYWHERE. It's not bulky, and...

Pros: Solidly built, functional phone, with some nice features.
Cons: No industry standard headset connector.

I have had my Nokia 5190 for about 4 months now, and I've been pretty happy with it. I have compared it to a Mitsubishi G310 (I own one, and use it often by swapping my SIM card between the two), and believe that the 5190 is a better, more solidly built,...

Pros: Nice design, all the basic features included, clear sound
Cons: Not an ergonomic keyboard, SIM-locked in my case

I just got this phone a couple of hours ago from the VoiceStream guys, who had a deal on it, if you sign up for their services. They are the only ones in the Washington state area offering GSM network, so you don't really have much voice, if you want to...

Pros: so easy and intuitive to use
Cons: a little dated, no web access available

Wow, what a great phone! It's so easy to use, you could basically throw the manual out when you buy it. A great beginners phone.

EASE OF USE
Very intuitive, can be learnt, mastered and understood in half hour max. Nice small size and...
