My Favorite Nokia

by namja , Oct 15 '02
Pros: Small, Light, Attractive, Loaded with Features, Incredible Backlight
Cons: Single Band, Small Keys
I've been using Nokia phones since 1995, and currently, the Nokia 8390 is my favorite Nokia phone.

1. Size & Appearance
This phone is tiny. The dimensions are 3.78" tall, 1.69" wide, and 0.75" thick, and it only weighs 2.9 ounces....

Good update from the 8290

by paco_t , Aug 18 '02
Pros: Superb styling, portability, cusomisation, and loaded with features.
Cons: Lacks Tri-Band GSM, technologically one step behind the novel products of its competitors
By far, the Nokia 8390's strongest selling point has to be its style. Its two-tone colour scheme really serves to enhance the sleekness of the phone. The user-customisable faceplating option ensures that you can switch the phone's looks to suit your...

Another thumbs up for Nokia

by AriesG , Dec 03 '02
Pros: Compact, lightweight, better overall backlit screen, good sound clarity
Cons: keypad light distracting, small buttons, on/off switch requires heavy hand
With so many phones to choose from I opted to stick with a brand I've grown to love over the years. Lightweight, compact and comfortable, the Nokia 8390 proves itself to be a powerhouse when it comes to features. If you're no stranger to Nokia then...

A small phone with Big Sound

by girlflesh , Dec 04 '03
Pros: sleek, elegant, great features
Cons: expensive when it came out.
When the Nokia 8390, I was drooling over it in stores. I had a cell phone at the time, and it was a black Erisson flip phone, and it was three years old. Finally, it broke and I was off to the mall to buy a new one. When it first came out in Canada, it ...

The 8390: Upgrade... or Downgrade?

by smirnoff16 , Nov 03 '03
Pros: Weight, backlight, stylish design, quite a few improvements.
Cons: Earphone/Ringer Volume, Unnaceptable reception.
After 300 hours of good usage on my Nokia 3390, I decided that it was time for something new... I've always remained faithful to Nokia (especially after my escapade with the Vtech A700) and I decided to opt for something smaller and more stylish. The 8 ...

Nokia 8390 = updated 8290

by bdwelle , Aug 29 '03
Pros: great Nokia UI, tiny size, nice design, internal antenna
Cons: poor durability, not a world phone
The 8390 is an update of the now-venerable 81/82/83/8890 line. It's essentially the same as the 829 ...

Nokia's New Baby!

by ia_young , Aug 08 '02
Pros: a lot of features, looks good, small amd compact
Cons: price, small so easy to loose
The Nokia 8310 mobile phone is the new upgrade to the Nokia 8210. It is hard to believe all of the features that are packed into this small little phone. The phone is 97mm x 43mm x 17mm, which makes this phone just a little bit smaller than it's...

Great Phone but not for Atlanta area

by muone , Apr 03 '03
Pros: Small, Light, Cute looking, Cool White Backlight, Easy to use menus
Cons: Single Band, Background noise
I had a Nokia 8290 when I lived in California, but had to switch to Panasonic Allure after I moved to Atlanta since GSM service was still unavailable in this area at the time. Recently ATT started to have GSM phones, and based on my past pleasant...

Nokia 8390 - New, Sleek, BETTER

by Anniemal , Mar 30 '03
Pros: lightweight, better reception, small, new features
Cons: connection problems, tedious menus, on/off button hard to use
Upgrading from my old Nokia 5565 was a hard decision. Good thing AT&T wireless had a promotion - the NEW Nokia 8390 @ $100 with a $100 rebate. FREE! I was blessed with better reception and new sleek phone.

Sub-par reception

by sgfrank , Jan 29 '03
Pros: Small size, sleek look.
Cons: Mediocre reception, quiet ring.
I bought this phone wanting something I could keep in my pocket, and the 8390 certainly fulfilled that part of the deal. However, and especially with the phone in my pocket, I often can barely hear incoming calls, despite the ringer being set on high. If...

A very good phone!

by supergrass , Mar 05 '03
Pros: Bright, clear screen. Simple and quick access to features.
Cons: Low volume.
When I changed cellular service provider I chose this phone because I had the Nokia 8290 and I wanted to easily transfer my phone numbers. I thought it would be as simple as transferring over the chip form my old to my new phone. Of course, the chip is...

Great Phone

by jc1104 , Mar 11 '04
Pros: Looks, battery, features, compact, durable
Cons: May be too small for some people
I bought this phone a year and a half ago, on ebay. I loved this phone because it had the nice back white light, the changeable express on covers, the features, the design, and the light-weightedness. It is a pretty small phone that weighs about less ...

Nokia..Nokia...Why have you let me down?

by porkandbeans , May 11 '04
Pros: small size, VERY bright light, very user friendly
Cons: HORRIBLE reception, very quiet ringer and speaker, countless other things
I've had a cellphone for about 5 years now, and it's safe to say every phone I've had before this one was a lot better. Don't let the size and the "features" fool you, this phone is not worth the money. Let's start with the good things. The phone is ...

highly functional phone at an affordable price

by isillyducki , Nov 30 '03
Pros: stylish, many functions, small
Cons: lack of color, reception, volume, background noise
I got this phone for free after a $100 dollar rebate promotion AT&T was having. The Pros The phone is indeed extremely small. I switched from a Motorola V60, to the 8390 a year ago, when it was fresh off the market, so the white LED lights, ...
