Advantages: THE GOOD: Honestly it's not a bad phone. it's durable

Disadvantages: THEN one day it randomly started doing it again. but this time even if i closed the phone to hang up

One of the least durable phones Nokia has made. The flip joint is made from very weak and poorly designed plastic which may crack from holding up to ones head. The flexible electronic sheeting inside the joint cracks easily as well. Having owned many Nokias and been very pleased with the ruggedness of the brand, this phone has been a let down. At such a low cost, one can't expect much but its also not worth sending in for warranty repair. Pass on this phone for many others in its price range.
THE GOOD: Honestly it's not a bad phone. it's durable. my little cousin threw mine across the room and it hit the wall then spun on the hardwood floor. i freaked out but when i picked it up it was fine. like COMPLETELY fine. if that was my old razor it would have disintegrated on impact. it has lasted me four years so far.
THE BAD: I didn't have a problem with it till two years ago. i had taken my sim card out and put it in my mums phone bcuz we were on a trip and my phone was about to die and i couldn't charge it in the car. after i switched back though every time i hit the red "end" button or if i went onto my regular background screen the phone would turn off. then turn to a white screen. then come back to life. now it didn't bother me at first bcuz i had set the feature that lets you open and close the phone without exiting what you are doing. so the end button was rarely used bcuz i would always close my phone to hang up calls. but after a while the phone returned to normal. THEN one day it randomly started doing it again. but this time even if i closed the phone to hang up it would still reset...UNLESS...i had another screen open. it became a habit then to open my text messages during a call so my phone wouldnt reset. but after my phone was dead for about four days when my charger broke when i finally got it charged with my new charger the problem stopped and so far hasnt come back. NOW THIS NEXT IS A BAD AND KIND OF A GOOD BCUZ IT SPEAKS OF DURABILITY...the bad is my phone randomly broke in half. like when it was open it made a 45 degree angle. the good is the dang thing is so durable that i was able to straighten it and tape it together. now i cant close it but it still works. and its lasted about three months like this.
