Nokia 8260 Review

Overall Rating

Small design
Easy read display
User friendly functions
Many ringtones

Terrible reception
Missed many incoming calls
Buttons are too small

I purchased this phone when it first came out b/c of the innovative, small palm-sized design. I've dropped it several times in my driveway and it still works. The display is easy to read and the functionality is very user-friendly and mimics most Nokia functions.

On the flip side, I have missed more incoming calls on this phone. I initially blamed it on the carrier. Unfortunately, I have talked to other owners of this phone w/ different carriers, and they all agree that the phone has terrible reception. The buttons are really small and you tend to hit the wrong numbers. This was my first Nokia and unfortunately, it didn't make a good first impression.
