In this workaday world of smartphones that do almost everything except tuck us in at night and read us a bedtime story, we almost forget that the device we have in our hand is, quintessentially, a mobile telephone. If you are looking for a practical yet stylish mobile phone and nothing more, then in my mind the Nokia 3100 is the pick of the crop. It is a lovely size for a mobile phone - I don't think you'll like it if you're eyes 'ain't what they used to be' but for me it is perfect. It slips into any pocket almost inconspicuously and is a very nice blue and cream colour. The phone feels extremely sturdy and is durable - it has suffered many a knock in its ...  Read the complete review

Today I will be reviewing my new mobile phone the Nokia 3100. I took receipt of the phone three weeks ago after requesting an update from Singlepoint as my Nokia 8210 was starting to look dated and very worn due to amount of punishment it had taken over the past 12 months. The phone cost me £19.99, but as it is a fairly new release from Nokia it does retail with most contracts from £100 - 150. My main attraction to the phone at first was the actual look, it has a colour screen, can send multi-media messages and receive pictures. The features weren't really a consideration as most features are standard across ...  Read the complete review

I recently started using this handset as a supplied work phone. (No Blackberries here!). It's a small and sturdy little phone in the traditional candybar design. There are no end of X-press on covers, both official and 3rd party, to change the phone to suit your personality, choice or even mood. Under the cover: The phone is 10.2*4.3*2cm and weighs 85g. It's fairly small and discreet and slips easily into a pocket or bag. The phone is tri-band and supports GPRS, Wap 2.0, Java and XHTML. There is also vibrating alert to accompany the polyphonic ringtones. 31 are supported by the limited 484kb memory which is non expandable. The handset does come ...  Read the complete review

After having a very long and loving relationship to a Nokia 3210, in November 2004 it was finally time for that little phone to travel to the large Mobile phone knackers yard in the sky... However, after buying 2 x Nokia 3100 phones, one for my partner and myself, I am rather glad my old phone finally died. This phone is everything that the 3210 was and a lot more. The factual stuff: The batteries last for ages, if you charge them as per the instructions from day1. on average I get 4 days from mine, and I do a lot of talking and texting. My partners is similar, even though she wouldn't be as maticulous at sticking to the charging rule ...  Read the complete review

I bought this phone when it came out many moons ago in 2004 I think, for the massive sum of £70. At the time it wasn't a bad phone and it has served me well to this day, so I think I've got my moneys worth. If you are looking for a phone that is just a phone with good signal, long battery and decent memory then it still cuts it and is well worth the £16.99 Amazon.co.uk are selling them for. It's well put together, easy to use, lightweight and robust. It comes with all the features you'd expect, a few good games, calendar, reminders etc. Most of the features are pretty pointless but the games aren't bad if you are stuck on a train and need something ...  Read the complete review
