Shells, Thermometer, Battery Life, Reception, charging
General Comments
Shockproof shells are rubbish, when I splashed a small amount of water over the phone, some water actually got inside. When you drop the phone the casing comes apart occasionally. The thermometer is always wrong. It always says 30c in a normal room temperature environment which is normally 19-20c. The battery life is horrific, I only got 1 1/2 days out of it (Constant use - I talk a lot), The reception on the phone is rubbish, (1 Bar or less). I live in an area where coverage is good and lastly when I charge the phone the display flickers. I have now bought a 3510i and it is 200% better. I think nokia have let themselves down by making this phone. Scrap it

i think this review has not been thought of in detail. did you miss the selling point of the telephone? its not the way it looks or the way it sounds or the battery life, its the fact that if you drop it off a cliff (which i have not but i have played a game with my friends where you kick it as far as you can) it will NOT break. that is why clumsy people buy it, that is why normail peple buy it, that is why people who cant afford fone insurance buy it. this fone is great it does everything it says it does. It didnt say that it had a 3year stand by time? so why expect that. i had this fone for a long time and was relunctant to part with it for my new 6100 (which is again a great fone) because the 6100 would break.
