Nokia 5510

It's not the newest phone, but I had my eye on the Nokia 5510 for quite a while. My birthday came on 26 November and money in the bank allowed me to get out and buy one. It's not that cheap though considering the relative age of the model - £99.99 pay as you go O2 from The Link, though it would have been £10 cheaper if I went with T-Mobile. Anyway, the phone is surprisingly light for the features it has and is not that much larger than the 3310 or similar series. However, comments such as "I want to hold your brick" arose on occasion. Phone handling is like any other Nokia phone and is functional and very good. Texting is very ...  Read the complete review

Introduction ----------------- For those of you that do not remember what this phone is let me remind you. This was the phone that was advertise for a very long time under the slogon "Looks weired, sounds great". The reason for the sounds great bit was thatit has a 64mb mp3 player built in and FM radio the reason for the looks weird bit is that it has a full qwerty keyboard running along it. When I first got it I was apprihencive as to its practicability due to its apparent size in the picture and because no one I knew had it. However after using it for a while I descovered this feeling was largely unfounded and that accept for a few niggles is a ...  Read the complete review

My second review for a mobile phone, this time for the Nokia 5510. I saw this phone really as a luxury rather than a necessity when I was deciding on a new contract. I wanted something a little bit different, and this seemed to fit the bill. Although I already have an mp3 player (my first review coincidentally), I thought this one would be very useful as I would not have to keep buying new batteries for it, and it had a radio as well. "What the hell" I thought, and got it for my Christmas present. The phone as a phone does everything you would expect it to - it tells you everything that previous Nokias have, duration, names, numbers, times ...  Read the complete review

I Bought this phone as it was reduced FROM £99.99 to £49.99 on a BT Cellnet Contract which I initially thought was an excellent buy. I have returned the phone because I was not happy with various Niggles I found. To start off, I thought this was the Phone for me, more than Just a phone, it has a large capacity 64mb mp3 player built in to allow storage of upto 2 hours of music as well as an FM Radio which will store 10 presets. It also has a lithium battery which means you can charge it anytime with no worry of memory effect. Apart from this it is identical to the Nokia 3330, for those of you who dont know this phone it has predictive text messaging, send long ...  Read the complete review

Well after the constant bombardment of adverts from all angles, I finally gave in and went and bought myself a 5510 on contract, for a reasonably priced £50 I will try and give you a good guide as to what the phone offers and what it gets wrong. The phone itself ================= The first impressions was the size of the phone, it’s big but not as big as the adverts seem to portray. Slightly larger than a Nokia 3210 although suprisingly it is slightly lighter. The phone functions in pretty much the same way as most Nokia's do. It has all the usual features. The Text messaging is vastly improved with the inclusion of the QWERTY ...  Read the complete review
