Won't keep working

by dc53 , Jan 05 '02
Pros: Cheap
Cons: Customer support
We recently purchased two Nokia 5185i phones with the Verizon Family share plan. On our way home from the Verizon store, we noticed that when we went thru a canyon that one phone returned to the digital mode, and one would not pick the signal back up...

Friendly little thing

by csicsi , Aug 29 '01
Pros: Very good size, easy to follow programming, not fancy.
Cons: Has to lock keys to avoid dialing if you put it in your purse.
I had my first Nokia 3 years ago - and this make is still my favorite little thing. Not too big - not too small. Gives you the option of having an air-time package or just use a card. Very easy to program everything in there to your personal liking -...

Small, but not too small,

by boboj101 , Jan 28 '01
Pros: Handy little bugger this one
Cons: not as small as some others
This model is very popular, I can think of at least 15 people I know who have this exact model. The phone is very versitile, it is small, but has a long enough battery life and is not so small that it seems akward to talk into. The phone has good range,...

cheap starter phone
by grotus ,Jan 28 '04
Pros: extremely sturdy, long battery life, good volume, quick menu access, some good rings
Cons: terrible headset connector, high radiation level, no vibrate
my first cell phone, but i need to switch to a better one. i go through about a headset a month, and it'll save me a lot of money to get a phone that doesn't need a weird headset connection or adapter. and the radiation level is way up there (1.42 sar digital rating, you can check this at cnet) that i don't much like holding it to my head for long periods of time.

but other than that, i like it. it's really very sturdy- i drop mine all the time and it hasn't sustained any damage. the battery hasn't had any noticeable drop-off in talking or standby duration. the reception is clear, usually- sometime an echo, but not lately, so might have been one type of headset- and i know people don't like those pull-out antennas, but i do, mostly because i can hold it by my teeth if i need my hands for a minute. i probably shouldn't have said that.
