eh ive had better
So this phone was purchased upon its release, and I was impressed!
- Took a 2GB memory card
- Nice bright display
- VERY LOUD for media files
- Handy flip button to open phone
However after normal use, phone started falling apart. Paint peeling, charging port cover fell off and the silver metal lining around the external display fell off. Being a NOKIA handset I assumed the phone would last the duration of my commitment with my service provider. Not happy at all with this phone.
Not bad, Deffinetley not good.
Dont really know why but i was really disappointed with the way this phone is. the call quality was averege and the texting was really annoying because it would never catch on to the words you wanted to say. it wouldnt learn the words that i wanted to use which normally most phones do. Anyway the camera was horrible on the phone. the pictures were very blurry and had bad color. and the thing that got on my nerves the most was the way that the buttons would always catch little things like dirt or sand or just lint in your pocket and it would jam all the buttons so i couldn't press them.
Good phone bad life through
Ok phone the life of it stinks through. Great screen high res i am on it right now wrighting it on my phone. The main menu is great. I love the fact that you can make and look at folders that the motorola cannot do. Big glich through if you are using the phone it will black out sometimes. I told t-mobile and they gave me a razr :( . Well i hope you find this helpful.
Everything you want in a phone!!!
I absolutely love my phone!!! I love the silver keypad. I also like the features on the phone such as: bluetooth, memory card slot, internet capability, games, and even AM/FM radio. With the memory card, you can download songs or take pictures from a memory card and download them to your phone. Or you can even download pictures from your phone to your computer. The ringer is so loud too! If I misplace my phone, I just call it and can find it easily from the loud ringer. This phone has really treated me well and I will be sad to down-grade it to a back-up phone when it's time to up-grade to a newer phone. I love the AM/FM radio because if I am going somewhere and I want to listen to music, I have the radio right at my fingertips. Nokia in my belief is the BEST brand for phones available to date. I especially love this phone. I highly recommend people into buying it.
Lame Phone
I give it props because its a Nokia. Nokia's are just like Honda's, they last a lifetime! The phone was lame....
-I had to buy ringtones for the phone because when I download free ringtones, it wouldnt let me use them as ringtones
-the camera sucks
-low memory
The only feature I liked was the fact that you can apply 3 different pics and when you close and open the phone, they change!
The only semi decent phone T-Mobile has to offer
This phone was the only phone that I had while I was with T-Mobile that was half way up to par.
The sound quality on it was okay, but not all that great.
The battery life was not good at all.
the buttons are kool
overall the phone was pretty good. the only negatives i had with the phone is that it had a short battery life and the camera wasn't that good. the best thing i like about it is the buttons cus its really comfortable and the button on th side to open it. this phone is durable just dont text or talk while charging it. it myt mess up the phone and the battery life. but good phone.haha
6133-Quirky
CON-After limited use over many months I have had to retire it due to the following reasons: Turns itself off during calls or when receiving calls. Keeps saying Sim card failed during Registration when it has not. Outer screen burned out. case starting to peel. Battery cover beginning to not want to lock in and comes off on a regular basis.. Battery life is becoming less and less.
The only Pro that I can say at this time is that it has good reception and drops very very few calls. Good graphics on inner screen.
Would not purchase this or probably not another Nokia any time soon,
I THOUGHT it WAS great.
It has lots of fun features and its easy to add more cool things to it. I loved it.
Pros- Mp3,
Expandable memory,
Decent camera in good lighting,
Fun themes made just for it are easy to get,
really fast menu navigation.
Cons- The side keys get pushed in pocket.
Keys feel really cheap,
It has an under-bite,
no flash,
So if look at the pros and cons the pros definatley come out ahead. Until for some odd reason you set it down and accidentally hit the flip button and blam it flies into a couple peices.
Sucky Battery life
Wow i was realy impressed with this when i got it for t-mobile even though i wanted the dash, the resolution and britness of the screen was flawless, the only con to this phone is the horrible battery life. I cant even go a whole day on one charge its pretty anoying.
(Pros)
Big Bright Screen
Nice Camera(only in bright settings)
Cool Fashionable design
(Con)
