    Good Points: Very reliable Ease of use

    Bad Points: Outdated?

    General comments: I bought this phone about seven years ago, but hadn't used it for about two years. A new sim card and I was away again with same battery. This phone really is a classic. Does'nt do all the fancy things that modern mobiles do, but is utterly reliable for phoning and texting. There can't be a better mobile for the very young or very old, abd I should know! May seem a bit heavy by todays standards, but it is reassuringly solid. If you want to go into the pub or office flashing your all singing dancing phone this isn't for you, but if you want reliability and ease of use, you can't do better.

    This is the best phone I have ever owned. I got it second hand (was already about a year old) when I was 11 and over 6 years later it is still going strong. This phone has never died on me for any reason. It has been soaked, fallen upon, dropped from heights of over 6 feet, thrown, etc. and everything still works perfectly.This is also the most easy to use phone ever invented due to its lack of technology. The lack of technology is its strong point, not its weakness. Any phone that can keep goin ...

    I have had my Nokia 3310 for some time and love it because it is so easy to use and easy to handle with the key pad ect it is easy to read ,send messages,answer,end, the only thing it does not do is take pictures and have a radio, people like my self we need a phone like this one as we are getting older and do not understand how to work some of the modern phones and this one is so easy to read as our eye sight cannot read the new smaller screens and words

    My good old faithful. The Nokia 3310 is a brilliant phone although it hardly compares to today's technology.

    The Nokia 3310 is good for kids. Or if you don't really use a phone. It's easy to use, makes calls, texts - All you'd expect from a phone. But, if you like a camera on a phone and all the latest features this isn't for you. Again - It does what you'd expect a phone to do, good spare phone etc. Not good for business. Alternatives/Upgrades : 6310i, 1100. (Nokia)

    I must have had the Nokia 3310 phone for 5 years, on PAYG Genie/BT Cellnet(!) SIM card. It's great for simple txts and calls. It's really tough, and survived much abuse. I bought new higher capacity a couple of years ago and it last about 5 days between charges. I have a cable to hook up up to my PC. It's a bit fiddly but it works, so I have a copy of my phone book, but I've never needed it - yet!

    What can I say. Still one of the best phones I've ever owned. Super reliable and built like a brick, literally. My uncle was on the phone on the top of a crane. He dropped his 3310 about 100ft down while he was talking. He went to the bottom and the bloke was still at the other end on his way to see if he was OK. It needed a new case, that was it. 100ft on to concrete. I don't think many other phone would have survived this. I want to buy another now though.

    Bought this Nokia 3310 mobile phone 5 years ago and have had NO problems but recently I have to charge the battery every couple of days but I suppose a new battery will solve this. NO mp3 player- Thank God, just good reliable service. When I upgrade to a better phone I will not be trading in my 3310 in case my new phone isn't as reliable.

    I am really pleased with my Nokia 3310 mobile phone. I've had it for about 5 years now and it still works perfectly, despite me having dropped it many times (sometimes on purpose just to demonstrate how sturdy it is). As a teenager, many times I have considered getting a new, cooler phone with a camera, but every time, I have decided to just stick with my 3310 - after all, it does everything you need in a phone - calls and texts. Having said that, I think it only has space for 4 text messages, w ...

    I used the Nokia 3310 before the 7650. The 3310 is good! It is very tough, and it is also one of the most user friendly phones I have ever used. There are many profiles. It is basically good.

    I absolutely loved my 3310! I kept mine for years because it was so reliable. It never gave me any problems. It was simple to use, and reacted quickly. I was soon drawn in by the new camera phones though, and opted for one a year ago. The only things better about my new phone are the colour screen and the fact that it holds a lot of text messages. As everyone seems to have digital cameras, I think camera phones are a bit pointless now. They have had their moment. So if they made a 3310 with ...

    The Nokia 3310 is a fantastic phone. It was only the second one I owned but it beats more modern handsets hands down. I originally had mine third hand (it was about two years old when I got it) yet it survived another year until the screen cracked. The major selling point on this phone for me is the text messaging. Yeah, you have MMS on later models, but hello, you get 450 characters in 1 message (10p!) with the 3310. I really miss this feature on my Nokia 3510i. It's also very compact despite i ...

    I bought the Nokia 3310 a few years ago and was thrilled with it. I knew I had the best phone available for about 1 month until the gits at Nokia released the 3510. I was very pleased with the ringtone volume, speaker quality in call and the ease of use while surfing the menus. you can compose your own tones and download up to seven extra ones (via text as there is no wap). This is a great phone for people who just want to make calls and send texts.

    This was my second phone after a Philips Savvy which I thought was robust, the 3310 took that to another level. While I was teaching abseiling off a 35 foot tower my 3310 took a nose dive off it, well I thought that was it, it had gone to the phone heaven in the sky, upon getting down to it, it was still working it hadn't even fallen apart/turned it self off. Of course I took much better care of it after that as I found it very easy to navigate, the different profiles were excellent as I could q ...

    I have had quite a few phones. The Nokia 3310 was my first. This is by far the best phone I have ever had. It is very user friendly. It is VERY durable. My phone went through a lot and never had but a scratch. It was dropped in a pool and still worked. I had this phone for two years and never had any problems. I have learned my lesson. When you find a good thing stick with it. I have had nothing but problems with all my phones since!

    I got my Nokia 3310 two years ago because it was very popular and I have been delighted by it. It is an ideal first phone for buyers because it is very easy to use and the shortcut keys are extremely helpful for people in a rush. Texting is easy (although predictive texting never seems to have the word you're looking for) and can be easily sent to one person or a group of friends. Overall I would say it is a great phone and the games really keep you hooked. However, it is very basic and old comp ...

    The Nokia 3310 was my first phone and it's still my favourite. I dropped it a thousand times but it came out unscathed evertime. I remember once I dropped it in water and thought that I lost it this time but I disassembled it put in front of heat blower for around 15 minutes , assembled it AND IT WAS STILL WORKING - IT IS TILL TODAY! Some think it is outdated now but I still cherish it.
