Nokia 8260 Cell Phone

Pros: Size, Battery life, Reception
Cons: Maybe a little easier to lose

I've had the 8260 for about 2 months now. The primary reason I retired my very dependable 6162 was that I wanted a smaller phone for obvious traveling need reasons, space. I bought the phone, spent 2 hours entering all of my contact numbers ( yes 2 hrs,...

Pros: small
Cons: chirping noise!

I have a question about the Nokia 8260 on ATT Digital One Rate (new york city area). The phone seems great BUT I have noticed some background noise when the phone is ON. This happens all the time and gets worse when making calls - has anyone else...

Pros: size, lightweight, tons of features
Cons: buttons are hard to push sometimes due to the size of the phone

I've had three different cell phones, and all of them have been from Nokia. I've found that their phones are practical, very easy to use and stylish at the same time. I currently have the 8260 which I got about 4-5 months ago. This phone is fantastic....

Pros: very small, good battery, lots of features
Cons: signal clarity not great, ring too quiet

For about $400 less than Nokia's top of the line phone, the 8260 offers just about the same features and works for everything I need it too. You can get one from just about every wireless provider on the market, for prices ranging from $80-$250,...

Pros: compact size, many features, attractive stlying.
Cons: feels too delicate, lack of color selection

the nokia 8260 is a great phone, that will catch everyones attention. i have been through many cellular phones, due to my terrible luck with them. i have gone through three top of the line phones in two years, and have found nokias to be most favorable....

Pros: Small, lightweight, email and messaging capabilities, internal antenna, battery life
Cons: Difficult to change cover

But I got it back the next day, it is so small you don't even notice is there until it rings (and vibrates). The first reason for buying the mobile phone was the excellent design without compromising size and usability, starting for the internal antenna....

Pros: Tiny; packed with excellent features; simple navigation; vibrates; text messaging
Cons: No internet

I wasn't expecting a knockout punch when I purchased this phone. But I got one. It's such an excellent cell phone I laugh when I think of my old ones.

And now in spirit of the phone's effortless navigation system, here's a concise rundown...

Pros: SIZE, vibrating ringer, long battery life, ease of use non-obtrusive antenna.
Cons: Below average reception, dust getting into the screen.

The first thing everybody notices about this phone is its miniature size. Now and days cellular phones are getting smaller and smaller. I've talked to many people that are skeptical of the phone being too small. Well, that is what I absolutely LOVE...

Pros: Good size, attractive appearance, very functional
Cons: Buttons a bit close together

I don't actually own a Nokia 8260, my wife has got one through her work, but I get to use it whenever I need to have a mobile phone on hand. I have to say I really like the look and size of the Nokia 8260. As a modest guy I can carry it in my pocket...

Pros: Small. Tri-Mode. No antenna to break off. First small phone to have long battery.
Cons: Screen not sealed. Buttons get worn.

You buy this phone because of its size and because it's tri-mode TDMA/AMPS, and those should be the only reasons you need.

There are only a few phones you can carry in your pocket at all times, and this is one of them. I've had it in the...

Pros: It's small and light, not to mention sexy.
Cons: Sometimes my calls get dropped because of the antenna.

Okay, maybe I'm not as sexy as this phone. Who am I kidding? Hells yeah I am. I bought this phone because I was too sexy for my old one (StarTac). If you want to check out some stuff on the 8260 go here: www.cellphoneuser.com. Here's some background...

Pros: Great features, small size, no external antenna
Cons: None

Pros: Stylish design, compact size, ease of use, no antenna
Cons: Small buttons, brain cancer (?)

Overall, I'm extremely pleased with my Nokia 8260 as far as a cell phone goes. The size and design make it a great accessory. It conveniently fits in your pocket or hangs on your belt with the leather belt clip accessory. Like all Nokia phones it is easy...

Pros: Small size, ample battery life, great reception, quality construction
Cons: no internet access (other than email), inconvenient for multiple batteries, higher than average cost

This 8260 is my 3rd Nokia phone, with my most recent prior phone being a Motorola Star Tac 7620(which I really liked).

Things I like about the Nokia 8260:

* Small size- it is roughly the same height as my closed Star Tac yet...

Pros: Small Sized, Over 3 hours of talking time
Cons: Easy to Lose...from experience!

~*Why I Bought This Product*~
For Christmas, 2000, I really wanted/needed a cell phone. Of course my parents said, "You don't need one...You're too young." BUT I DID need one! I was always looking for change to use the payphone...
