Let everyone know that you’ve arrived with the Nokia 8850. Though an outdated phone in terms of technology, It is very amazing in terms of design, size and ease of operation.
If I had known about mouthshut an year ago, I would have vividly described the 8850 in the most colorful way possible. but unfortunately my current phone is a GD68, and I’ll soon be writing a review on that.
The 8850 is definitely costly when compared to other models with similar features. Kindly note that the target audience reading this review are those interested in buying the 8850 from used market. You can bargain for a decently used phone for around 6000-7000. Anything more is awaste.
The advantage using this phone is the beautiful design. It stands apart and gives a feeling of class! You’ll definitely be excused if you show off with this phone cos it’s worth it!!!!The sliding cover can be used to protect the keypad and calls can be answered by sliding it open, and can be disconnected by sliding it upwards.
The disadvantage is that you’ve to sacrifice the most important thing anyone looks for in a NOKIA...there’s no composer!!! But you can receive ringtones sent from another phone. And compared to phones in the current market, it’s kind of outdated because it has no color display and hence no GPRS.
I personally suggest this phone for office-goers and corporates or for any person who considers style as top priority!!!!
