I purchased NOKIA 1100 because it was cheap and I needed a cell phone for sure. I know it lack many features like polyphonic sound, color display and all but still for less that 3000 Rs. there is no other match.
The best thing about this model is it is Rock Solid. I dropped it accidently for many times but it is as new as before.
1100 gives you a very good battery usage. For moderate usage, twice a week recharge is more than enough.
MODEL
1100 features an uncomfortably positioned scrolling buttons. These buttons are placed on the right to side of the Key-Pad, which should have bit middle.
The switch off button is added on the key-pad rather than on the top side of the cell phone.
There are some negative points which I come to know after using it for an year or so.
If you are talking for a long time, sometimes it happens that your call ends abruptly.
Message storage space is very small. you can store SMSs around 60.
