 ... is the use of a phone that can't receive calls? I think that Nokia have made a dud here at the bottom end of their range which is a pity as there will always be a market for simple to use, cheap mobiles. They should have spent less time adding a torch and more time ensuring it works properly :( Had to give 1 star, 0 not allowed....more

Premium Review Nokia 1208 - Useless phone (487 words)

I am writing this review on behalf of my dad (he lives 300 miles away) who bought this mobile as an emergency when BT cut him off 5 days earlier than requested prior to moving house!! (But THAT'S another story!!!) He purchased the Nokia 1208 from Tesco Mobile on Pay as You Go, for £17.97. It was good deal, if you top up by £15 they will triple it to £45. Well done Tesco. Anyway back to the phone review, it has the following 'features' - Screen 65k Colour CSTN Screen (96 x 68 Pixels) Large Digital Clock Wallpaper, Animated Screensavers, Jumbo Font Dual Band (GSM 900 & GSM 1800) 4 Mbytes Memory, 7 Hours Talk Time 365 ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Reliable & Cheap! (171 words)

Looking for a low-cost, easy to use and no-frills mobile phone? This is what I currently own - Nokia 1208. It doesn't have an mp3 player, bluetooth, camera and the likes of all the modern mobile phones. However, it is totally easy to use, and I recommend it to the older and middle aged people and to all those who find today's technology a bit too difficult to handle. I find it really easy to use and the screen is very clear (it has colour display 65k!). It has a long battery life, and I often find that it only needs once a week recharging. Ringtones can be really heard when you're a long distance from this mobile phone. The keypad is totally dust ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Nokia 1208: Cheap and simple. Not that efficient. (326 words)
by - written on 25/05/09 (Useful, 42 readings)
Rating:

First of all this is an entry-level phone which claims to do nothing other than make calls and send texts. I bought this phone when mine was getting repaired simpl because i needed c cheap and efficient preplacement. Cheap is certainly what I got but efficient, not so much. The main problems i had with this phone is its texting. The phone would often reset whenever i sent a text so i had to rewrite the whole thing once the phone booted up again. This was obviously annoying and time consuming. Furthermore sometimes when people were trying to ring me it would go to answer phone, despite the phone being on and having full ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Low price, Lightweight (244 words)

While browsing for a simple phone at the sales counter, this N1208 caught my attention, being low priced (just below 33 euros), small, light weight. The phone has a 4 way naviagation key to access its menu. The features are identical to the N1200 except the latter has a monochrome screen. I decided on the colour N1208 to replace my mum's older N1100. Basic access to the menu are similar to most Nokias, so there's not much learning curve involve. I was very much attracted to this phone's flash light. There's always that moment you be in the dark and a flash light is always at your disposal. It can customised to have it turned on via the Right Menu ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Simplicity, thy name is Nokia 1208 (166 words)

If you're not looking for fancy-ass features like a camera, bluetooth, picture messaging, mass storage, the latest tones, maps, and an mp3 player, and you want your phone to make calls and send texts, this is for you. It is incredibly user friendly, (an excellent phone for the older generation) has 4 fairly addictive but simple games, and is very reliable and durable. As something of a luddite in regard to mobile technology, I consider this the best phone I have ever owned, with its fantastically long battery life, great sound quality and highly simplistic functions. The ringtones are largely a little annoying but the old faithful 'nokia theme' is still there, despite ...  Read the complete review
