Nokia 5110

This phone has got to be one of the oldest one on the market. And while it may not be available in your regular cell phone shop, you can still buy them on e-bay for less than £10 or if you want one that's guaranteed to be in really good working condition, you can try www.retrophone.com where they sell these for a mere £24.99. The question is, why would you want such an old, outmoded and single band phone? Well, if you're like us, perhaps you have an old hands-free unit in your car that fits this phone, and you want something inexpensive to use while driving. If so, then this is still the perfect phone. The fact is, I bought this model by chance, since I ...  Read the complete review

In my opinion this is the best looking phone that Nokia have out at the moment. It has a good number of features with it and is also priced very competitively. Features include the excellent battery that comes with this phone. When fully charged you can get upto 5 hours of battery talktime and 270 hours battery standby time. I can't think of a phone with a better battery than this one and this should be taken into consideration. The phone is actually quite heavy as far as phones go today. It weighs in at 170g which is heavier than most pay as you talk phones. There are 40 ring tones on this phone which is a very impressive amount along with the fact that you ...  Read the complete review

The Nokia 5110 is the most popular fone ever produced. It was successful when first released and its popularity has still not decreased too greatly. This fone has 30 ringtones and the ability to change the front cover of the fone so that it can be made original. This fone has an easy to use menu which allows even the least technologically compatible user to operate the fone.

The fone is reasonable although slightly outdated and lacking some modern features such as the predictive text input system, vibrating alarm, or WAP ...  Read the complete review

Compared to some of the latest models, this phone is beginning to look a bit ancient - rumour has it, they found this model in Tutankamun's sarcophagus. Personally, though, I like to hold something I can feel, and have an energetic argument on the blower without feeling like my voice waves are going to shatter the damn thing. Orange aren't the most efficient or reliable service, and as a pay-as-you-go customer I have to deal with an Anne Robinson sound-a-like every time I dial up for my balance. "You're remaining balance is £2.38...Goodbye." Sent messages get blocked by a variety of things, including wood, metal, glass, people's ...  Read the complete review

There are many useful hacks that you are allowed to do on Nokia phones. For instance, if you want to find out your phone number you dial *#100# and your mobile number comes up on the screen. If you want to find out when your phone was made and what battery you have etc. you dial *#0000# and the information comes up on your phone. Or what about the so called "free calls" hack, that acutely just increases the life of your battery by around 15% this is done by dialling *#746025625#, another way of making your battery last longer is to wait until your battery has completely run down before recharging it.
