Good Points

The classic nokia menu structure,


Bad Points

Screen resolution is poor compared to other phones, a little on the large and heavy side (compared to new phones) Primative sounding ringtones because they're only 4 chord, buttons tend to stop working, no camera, hates data cables.


General Comments

I've had my 3510i since august 2003 and at first I was pretty impressed (well wouldn't you be going to this from a crummy 3330 with constant software crashes) it was brand new & unlocked to any network on a dual band frequency, £70+3330 job done (I had a few goodies with it as well like hands free kits, signal boosters etc which pushed the price up)
But now I'm getting sick of the stupid thing, the '7' button becomes iffy, so when you're texting someone you get typo errors 'cos you don't have any P's Q'S R'S & S's. any wall papers you download have to be at the resolution of the screen allready otherwise they just look horrible, some of the ringtones sound tangy, crackle, hiss, click and sometimes cut notes out all together, then plays them next time! I know it's only 4 chord BUT COME ON! A new problem that has recently developed is that I cant save operator logos of any sort on the phone, it now hates my data cable, and when I plug it in the phone refuses to switch on.

**********

To cut a long story short the phone works great for about 6 months then goes down hill over time, I would recommend buying one of these if your desperate for a phone, want some sort of tuneful ringtone (not beep beep SHREEK) want a colour screen so you can play some half decent games, and need to text and call people, otherwise go for something more up market if your budget allows it.
