I am using this phone for 2 years now and the model has performed brilliantly without any major breakdown. The phone has not evolved much over time. But recently, Nokia has started providing some Audio Booster equipment which is simply a plastic equipment designed in some fashionable manner where you plug your phone ad play it. You do find your AUDIO ENHANCED...
Specifications:
General: 2G Network : GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900

Video: QCIF@15fps
Data: Bluetooth with A2DP, GPRS, EDGE, USB v2.0
Battery: Talktime - Up to 5 h 40 min
My Personal Experience:
Looks: Sleek, cheesy, versatile yet hardy.
Sound: The major drawback in this phone is sound. External sound is not that loud and crisp. Yet in headphones its ok. Although clarity is good.
Memory: The phone performs great while operated with a 2GB memory.
Camera: 2MP is good in perfect lighting conditions. Its does not perform good in night conditions.
Reception: Signal Strength (although it depends on Telecom Services) is good.
Battery: After a total airtime use of 150 hrs I can proudly say battery used in this phone is good (if not brilliant). I always keep my phone in vibrating mode but the phone has never disappointed me by switching off at important times.
Data Transfer: I generally connect my phone with my laptop using Bluetooth for doing data transfers. Its fairly easy to connect and use. But I suggest USB transfers are much better. GPRS is fairly good in this phone. The in-built browser is ok for normal surfing.
Tolerance: I dropped my phone from all heights practchandru021y but seriously everytime I drop I know my phone will tolerate the damage. Once I found my dog (lab puppy) was practchandru021y chewing the phone, the phone was all wet and was scratched here and there yet the plastic could withstand the damage caused.
Areas for Improvement:
Memory: At least expandable upto 8GB
Headphones: 3.5mm jack should be provided
Audio: Needs improvement.
Video: Video Recording seriously needs improvement
Cons:
Its difficult to view the screen contents in bright sunlight.
Screen tends to collect dust in a few days use.
Keys are stubby and initially difficult to operate.
Audio is not that great.
Video recording is average.
Plastic Body tends to get scratch here and there.
My personal take on the phone:
Nokia is a leading brand in mobile phones and you can blindly trust her. If you want sleek, stylish phone with average features go for it. You wont be disappointed.
Competitors to look out for at this price: Nokia 2730, Samsung C330K, Samsung S3500, Nokia 5130 Express Music
