Advantages: Solidly built, reliable, good at being what it is - a phone.

Disadvantages: Not for those looking for a more advanced phone.

This is one of those phones where it very much depends what sort of user you are. If, like me, you are someone who wants to stretch what a phone can do, and make use of the latest technology available to mobiles, this is NOT the phone for you. Get an iPhone or a BlackBerry instead.

However, if you are someone who wants a phone to be a phone, and not bother with all the silly addons and features a lot of modern phones provide, this could well be for you. It's strongest selling point is naturally it's brand name: Nokia.

Nokia have rightfully been one of the leading mobile phone manufacturers for the last 10 years or so, simple effective designs and a solid operating system have seen them favoured over other, more unusual or less technophobe friendly handset makers.

It's camera is standard for what you expect from a phone nowadays, you get a few games and a media section that includes voice and video recording capabilities.

So in summary, if you're looking for a phone that does the basics well, go for this one. It is a reliable and safe choice.

Summary: Good for those looking for your standard solid handset.
