This was actually the first phone I used...
The Nokia 2100 !
there are other phones I could have gone for, but even now NOKIA is the only brand majority of the customers seem to trust & choose in india..
THE PHONE:
Although it looks very off-beat on box-covers or advertisements...its a great phone in reality, i.e in hand.
the cover is made up of a smooth durable plastic which is so nice to feel and comfortable.believe me, the phone can withstand a lot (coz ive dropped it a few times & nothing happened)!
USAGE etc.. :
The UI is similar to all the basic nokia b/w phones.its very easy to use and you become an expert at handling the device after sometime.the screen back light is a mix of light blue+white.the screen & keypad back light are so bright that you could use it as a torch at night...(im serious)
for all those fashion buffs, the phone comes with <b.X-press on covers available in many nice colours and the phone also has a cute photo frame.
the keypad looks stylish n very easy to use.
So, here are the main advantages :
-3 fun games
-ring tone composer(ability to compose & send ring tones)
-operator logos can be changed
-good reception & signal receiving ability
-decent battery life & effective Vibration alert
-photo-frame & X-press on covers
-reminders & effective ALARM
-HANDSFREE port (for handsfree headset)
-35+ built-in LOUD n fun ring tones + downloadable(via sms)
-nice to carry around & very easy 2 use (better than 3310 & 1100)
This is a entry level BASIC B/W phone from Nokia which will be a best-seller for some time ...
CONCLUSION:
ive been using this phone for 2 1/2 yrs now and its still in an excellent condition with no problems..BUT after a LONG-TIME usage of this phone, you might get bored with it..
its after all a B/W phone...
