Advantages: nice looking, not too small, easy to use

Disadvantages: Annoying dictionary

I've only had my Nokia 3210 (on Orange Just Talk) for about a week now, but since the day I bought it, I've been nothing short of impressed by it.

It's a fairly small phone, but importantly, but too small. I've seen some phones on the market that are so small, you'll forget that they're in your pocket when you sit down! It's small enough to fit into a pocket, but bulky enough that you'll not forget it's there.

It comes with what are the usual features of a mobile phone today - SMS, address book, multiple ring tones etc. But it is easy to get to grips with, especially if you've owned a Nokia before.

It also looks the part, with a nice curvy shape (that's the technical term, I believe) and can use those Xpress-on cover thingys to give your mobile more character, if you're prepared to spend the £10 upwards for them.

The display is quite big, meaning that you won't be squiting at it to see if the numbers you have typed in are correct.

It has an auto-completing dictionary for when you're writing SMS messages, but to be honest, this feature has just annoyed me so far, but you can turn it off.

There is no aerial to speak of, it's integral to the phone, which makes it even easier to keep stashed in your pocket.

The address book is big enough to store 90 entries, although I would have liked a few more.

Overall, I like the Nokia 3210, and would recomend it to anyone who is considering a new phone, whether they've had a mobile phone before or not.
