This mobile phone has a good design. It has Li-Pol 900 mAh battery, perfect screen (240x320 with 262144 colors) and average polyphony (40 tones).
Built-in camera with a flash can make photos with maximum 1632x1224 resolution, that is good enough for 2 MP cameras. It also has a MP3/AAC/MPEG4 player, and FM radio with RDS.
It also has Java support (MIDP 2.0). Built-in memory is 64 Mb, so it may be expanded by Memory Stick Duo Pro cards. Other features are USB Interface, IrDA, BlueTooth. It supports GPRS class 10 (4+1/3+2 slots), WAP 2.0 and does not support EDGE. Usualy I do not like sliding screen, but this cell phone made perfectly - I very like it.

A New model (2006) of famous 700 series of SonyEricsson. It has a TFT 262144-color screen with 176 x 220 resolution, 40-channels polyphonic melodies. Camera 2 Mpix (max. photo resolution is 1632x1224), MP3 player, MP3/AAC/MPEG4 player, FM Radio with RDS, Java: MIDP 2.0. It may have Titanium Gold or Smooth White color. It supports GPRS: Class 10 (4+1/3+2 slots), but does not support EDGE.
Also included email client, and 34 MB memory already in cell phone. By the way, the Memory Stick Duo Pro card (256 MB) is also included in this model. It has a USB Interface, and also may be connected to PC via IrDA or BlueTooth. That's a very goods cell phone, but the price is high.

This is a modern phone, has a good processor and enough memory. It connects to PC or notebook perfectly via cable, and allows to use all communication possibilities. That's a goods phone, it has Java support and MP3-player.

This cell phone has a good screen (TFT, with 262144 colors), perfect polyphony (64 tones), good Li-Ion battery, and 2 MP build-in camera with maximum resolution 1600x1200. It is good enough to make an average photos. It has only 10 Mb inner memory, but it supports Memory Stick Micro (M2) cards.
It can be syncronized with PC via USB-port or via Bluetooth. It also has MP3/AAC player, and Java support (MIDP 2.0). It does not support EDGE, but it supports GPRS (Class 10 (4+1/3+2 slots)), and it has a HTML-browser. I like this phone, so I recommend it.

That is a very good phone for 2001... It supports GPRS, and many people using then only as a good GPRS modem. It's old, but useful. I like it. Dimensions: 100 x 48 x 20.
Have you seen the film "Die another day" ? This phone used legendary agent 007.

It looks like T230, but it has a larger screen, larger memory, better battery and ... larger price. It has enough memory to run games and other Java applications, and it has better design.
The high-resolution screen is of high quality, with 65000 colors. Great for use with the camera and for WAP browsing, although the screen can be difficult to read in sunlight. Soft keys and menu hotlinks also help to make the phone user-friendly-a key consideration in a phone that packs in so many features.

The Sony Ericsson T290i is almost the same as the old T230. The only thing that's new is the addition of a handsfree speaker, which is good enough. It's really the most basic phone that you can get. If you are looking for a phone with no features, then this might be the one for you, but only if you can put up with a poor keypad, a terrible screen, very slow navigation and occasional software freezing, as a T230.
The Sony Ericsson T290i includes following features: Display: 4096 colours, with 101 x 80 pixels resolution. Sound recorder Integrated speaker phone, it's loud enough Games: V-Rally, Five Stones plus downloadable games phonebook with pictures Calendar 32 voice polyphonic ringtones Melody composer (mono only) Messaging: SMS, MMS, e-mail WAP 1.2.1, GPRS Connectivity: USB, RS232 cable Talktime: 11 hours Battery standby: 300 hours Size: 101.5 x 44 x 19 mm Weight: 80g Nothing interesting for me personally.

This phone was designed at 2003, so it supports GPRS and can be used as a good GPRS-modem.
It has very bad polyphony, but it has many features making them a very good cell phone for that time.

This is the one smart phone, which I really want to buy. It combines all cell phone features, and it has powerful processor, large memory and many others smartphone features. It has a QWERTY-keyboard, 32-tones polyphiny, MP3 player, VGA photo camera (640 X 480, 320 X 240, 160 X120 resolution), 64 Mb built-in memory (may be extended up to 1 Gb by Memory Stick Duo),USB Interface,IrDA,BlueTooth.
It does not support EDGE technology, but supports WAP: 2.0 and GPRS Class 10. PDA has Symbian 7.0 UIQ 2.1, powerful Li-Pol battery 1000 mAh.

It looks like a smartphone. It has Symbian OS v9.1, UIQ 3.0, and it has a very interesting keyboard. It seems to be simiar to a PC QWERTY-keyboard, but its layout is very strange. I do not even tested, how comfortable to use it, but I think, it is more comfortable then usual mobile phone keyboard.
So, this phone has a sensor screen (like a PDA), and you must use it very carefully. It has average polyphony (40 tones), and a Media Player (MP3, AAC). Screen resolution is 240x320 (262144 colors). It also has a Java support (MIDP 2.0). It has a perfect HTML browser (Opera 8.0), which can be used with GPRS connection. EDGE does not supported by this model. It has 80 Mb built-in memory (that is good enough), and it supports Memory Stick cards. It has IrDA, Bluetooth and USB Interface.

This cell phone supports CyberShot technology. It has a 3.2 megapixels camera with maximum resolution - 2048x1536. Its pretty good for a mobile phone, It has perfect polyphony - 72 channels. It has MP3/AAC/MPEG4 player, RDS FM radio. It does not supports the EDGE technology, but it has GPRS Class 10 support. WAP 2.0 is also supported. USB Interface, IrDA and Bluetooth make this phone easy connectable to any personal computer or a notebook. It has 64 Mb inner memory, with Memory Stick Micro (M2) support. It is very good cell phone, but it has a specific design.

Very chead model. But, it has one of the best quality/price conjunction. It has a memory for Java applications, it has a good menu, many useful functions and other important things. But design of this cell phone is a matter of discussion. I do not like this design, perhaps you may find it cool.

It is a very interesting model. It contains all the necessary features to call, to send SMS, to use GPRS/EDGE technology, supports Java. EDGE does not supports, WAP: 2.0, GPRS: Class 10. USB Interface, IrDA, BlueTooth, 38 Mb inner memory, can use Memory Stick Pro Duo.

This cell phone is the one of the best I ever see. It looks good, it holds comfortable in hand, buttons are perfect, screen is great. It has enough inner memory (20 Mb), but it may be extented by RS-DV-MMC, hot swap. Java: MIDP 2.0,Stereo FM radio, MP3/AAC/MPEG4 player, 2 megapixels camera, EDGE (Class 10, 236.8 kbps), WAP 2.0, PhotoCall.
It is a realy good smart phone! That's not all, it has a Symbian OS ver. 8.1a, USB Interface, Bluetooth. It does not have IrDA, but it is not so critical. Only one thing disappoints me - the price is very high....

This cell phone has a great screen 176 X 208, Symbian OS, many games, and only 4 Mb inner memory. It was developed for gamers only, so I really do not know anybody, who use this phone as a cell phone.
I could not expect, how comfortable to make a phone call from it. It really comfortable for gaming, but not for making a voice calls. It is a smartphone, but it has absolutely irrealistic design. I do not like this phone, but you may find it very interesting. This is a real good phone that combines a phone/pda/handheld gaming system together to make one nice phone. The color may not be the best. But, the games and the symbian OS and the MMC card slot for extra memory makes up for that. Allowing you to have mp3 players, applications and all sorts of stuff. Turning your n-gage into a little computer of your own.
Some games for it are ps one quality; such as Rayman3, Pandemonium, and Ghost Recon. The phone is easy to use. The calls are clear but, the speaker phone can be touchy. The review about this being a dumb "TACO PHONE" was based off the N-GAGE not the N-GAGE QD. The only bad thing is you have to charge the phone every day.

Nokia 7600 is a typical example of such product. Being the market leader, Nokia doesn't need to consider thouroughly each model's commercial prospects. The company can afford producing phones that a priori stand no chance of high profits. It is all about strategy: the products like the latest hi-tech accessories series, and models like 7600 and 7700 are made to attract the hi-tech society, to consolidate the company's status as a forward-looking manufacturer of perspective products, who forms the tastes of today's customers.
Considering all this, Nokia 7600 ceases to be just a snappy thing, it becomes a hi-tech phone that realises all functions of the latest Series 40 platform edition. (It is not a Series 60 smartphone as was prognosed basing on the handset's positioning and preliminary specs.) Nokia 7600 looks quite uncommon, as can be easily seen from the photos. It is not minute, but not huge either: it measures and weighs about the same as Nokia 6600. The handset is supposed to be worn as a pendant, and it has a little hole for a neck band.
Although it seems a bit too big for a pendant, it looks more like a pocket-size device. Its body is made of a usual plastic which is not exactly bad but looks nothing grand either. Ergonomic tests show that the handset is the most handy when you hold it in your palm before yourself (a natural position for a videophone). Another natural grip is typical for holding a camera: the phone is held in both hands with the right forefinger on the shooting button and the thumbs on numeric keys. A large width and a square-like shape make this grip more handy than in the case of Siemens SX1.
But the traditional phone grip is inconvenient as the handset has to be placed diagonally. The model is supplied with a standard Nokia BL-5C Li-Ion battery. The construction of the battery cover is quite original. To open the battery compartment, you have to start with the plastic side cover which opens from the upper left corner. When you're through with it, the main cover can be removed. The battery is held in the socket by the friction force, although it is quite reliable. The SIM card slot is situated in the left wall; the card is inserted horizontally. To close the battery compartment back, the reverse order is used: you put the main cover in its place, then fix the side cover to the juts near the microphone and the info connector, and snap shut the jut on cover's edge. The construction has no backlash and emits no squeaks. Games allows to handle game Java midlets stored in the phone memory. You have to select this folder when installing various games (the phone supports no other game applications).
You can also load new programs here launching the WAP browser directly from this menu. My impressions from Nokia 7600 depend on whether I access it rationally or emotionally. In general, the handset looks good if we regard it as a work of designers' art, but it's not always handy to work with. 7600 is made in a youth, even teenager style. Twenty-something respondents, though approve of its original design, will hardly chose this phone for themselves. Rationally speaking, the estimate is negative: in this case, you always have to sacrifice something for the extravaganza, and ergonomic drawbacks are rather serious. For these reasons, a practical customer is very unlikely to spend money on 7600, although it is quite good, technically speaking. But in his eyes, the phone's extensive functionality and some unique features will hardly get the better of its design.

Probably the most noticeable difference with the 7210 is the increased length in comparison to the smaller 8000-series models. The 6510 and 8310 were probably the best-sized handsets in terms of overall dimensions since it provided excellent grip and ergonomics - thanks to its slightly thicker form.
With the same mentality in mind, a slightly longer design meant depth can be reduced while at the same time maintaining the same high levels of usability. As with most Nokia phones, they all share a very similar menu system and user interface. For the 7210, colour gives it the ability to display menus in a list of eight different colours, and a set of very colourful menu images have replaced those animating ones on older models. On top of possibly using the 7210 on nearly every major GSM network throughout the world, another new feature which can become quite practical when you run out of hands and had forgotten to bring your headset is the handsfree speakerphone. Performing somewhat better than the one on the 7650, a user can enable the speakerphone feature during a call by pressing the right soft key (labelled Loudsp.), and doing the same to revert back to normal handset mode (when Handset is displayed instead).
Overall, I found the 7210 to be quite solid on the outside - with the phone's 'core' (the actual phone itself without the covers on) providing for much of this rigidity. Both the front and back Xpress-on covers had the necessary tight fit as well. One of the worries for most people is probably the battery consumption on phones with colour displays. On heavy usage, the battery does get drained quite quickly because of this reason plus the required backlighting. For the first few days, I was only able to attain approximately 1-2 days of usage maximum - and would expect similar results on similar levels of usage even after the battery has been 'run-in'.
On average usage, I was able to gain approximately 3-4 days worth of standby and around 3-4 hours of talk time. If you are using the handsfree speakerphone feature, these times will decrease (refer to the 'Checklist' at the end of the review for specified times).

Remember "Matrix"? This film was sponsored by Nokia, and they promoted this model of cell phone. It was a really great for that time, but it was expensive.

Nokia's 6820 might seem an odd choice for review here because it isn't a fully-featured smartphone.
Although Nokia is promoting it aggressively in Europe as a business phone with RIM's Blackberry Connect email software (as the 6810), we typically look at phones that match or exceed PDA functionality, that run Palm, Microsoft or Symbian operating systems and are open to third party applications. Forget about multitasking, or running Opera or Salling Clicker on this device: it's limited to 64 kb Java applets.
The user interface is the current evolution of Nokia's NaviKey, which is used on hundreds of millions of handsets. Nokia's fold-out messaging phoneNo, the Nokia 6820 is here because of one characteristic, its keyboard. Nokia first debuted this ingenious design a year ago in the 6800 model, and it transforms the phone into something that's at the same time a little more useful and a little less capable than a PDA. The phone looks like a traditional candy bar handset, only the front flips up to reveal a full 51-key QWERTY layout with the phone rotated 90 degrees.
It promises to solve one of the dilemmas of a mobile device: they make for reasonably good devices for viewing material in some circumstances, but are lousy for entering text. Attempts to improve keyboards inevitably compromise the size. At one end of the market, Nokia's Communicator series has proved that a demand exists for mobile devices with full-sized keyboard that dominated the market in the first half of the 1990s, such as the Psion Series 3,5 and Revo, Sharp's Zaurus ZR and HP's Palmtop range. On the other hand, this is very much a niche market, and the Communicator remains more expensive and bulky than most users are prepared to carry. The 6820 is designed to encourage text entry but without the dweebish stigma of a posh smartphone.
The phone is less obtrusive than its predecessor, the 6800, which featured an FM radio but no Bluetooth or camera. (At 100g, the 6820 is 18 per cent lighter, and a centimeter shorter and narrower). As a consequence, the QWERTY keys are a little smaller too. However the addition of a joystick makes for a dramatic improv ement in usability. John C Dvorak recently wrote a scathing smartphone summary concentrating on the Nokia 6600 and concluding that the UI was designed by someone who liked pressing buttons far more than a normal person should. He has a point: for almost every practical purpose, the Nokia 6820 was easier to use than the Series 60 models we have tried, PalmOne's Treo, and Sony Ericsson's P800 and P900. To a large extent this is because functionality is limited: there are fewer things to do and fewer ways of doing them.
Like the Treo, the 6820's keys are small and unforgiving: more travel and a little spring would make typing much easier. Danger's Hiptop keyboard can also be concealed, uses less space, but feels considerably more comfortable. Like its rivals, the 6820 can only really be worked with your thumbs. However it was a relief to find a full keyboard, with two space bars, and the ampersand and dashes exactly where they should be. (Well, for a European user anyway.) So unlike the RIM (33 keys) and the Treo (35 keys) you don't need to memorize function key combinations. The 6820 adopts phone conventions for shifting between lower and upper case, which makes it familiar to regular texters, and it uses a lazy shift key which means that the modifier doesn't have to be held down along with the target key. An extra key brings up a list of characters that you won't find on the keyboard, such as the forward slash, square brackets and curly braces.
Perhaps the most telling impression of the 6820 is that we returned to Nokia's 6600 with some frustration. Although this is a very limited device compared to more fully featured smartphones, there's much than it accomplish as both phone and PDA with greater ease than its rivals. Nokia has succeeded in putting a full QWERTY keyboard in a tiny and unobtrusive device. Like Danger, it deserves to be rewarded for this innovation. I'd like to see this format allied to a Series 60 device, which would really unleash the power of the of the platform.

I'm sincerely grateful to those forum users that drew attention to the diversity of Nokia 6630 and other phones and made us commit researches in the field. I'll note that the acquaintance with Charlie happened long ago and in quite a confusing manner.
The first delivered device didn't turn on at all and the received instructions told to run the last version of Phoenix, so it took some more time to receive it. The experience in revitalizing the dead one was not a successful one and the smartphone refused working. On the release of the 3 hardware version the device could have been turned on and worked acceptably.
The announced camera similar to the one used in Nokia 7610 was absent there. The first impression of the phone was gained, the cover letters were read and the device got on the shelf. That happens with the devices that are not of any interest and our phone seemed a version of already existing ones. And that's why I'd like to thank once again those who tried to reveal the differences in their posts. Nokia 6630 is a today leader of the company's product line. The design is comparatively unusual, thus on the bottom end we see small ovals resembling similar ones in younger models (Nokia 3650/3660).
That's curious that the device changes much with a red interchangeable panel and resembles Nokia 3660 much, I doubt this comparison is to its good. In any case the device is usually delivered in two calm colour solutions and in particular they are Aluminium Grey, Light Green. DualVoltage RS-MMC cards are used here to prolong battery life. And if the cards we are used to work with a voltage of 3W then cards in Nokia 6630 with 1.8W. A card of 64 MB is included into a delivery package and changing the card for some more capacious will be hard in the nearset future. Third party manufacturers do not produce DV RS-MMC cards and Nokia offers only 64 Mb ones. That's not enough for today and some improvements may be expected only in the first quarter of the next year, third party cards will appear in March or a bit later.
That's curious that we didn't manage to find even 64 Mb cards by Nokia in retail networks and evidently due to the absence of the phone they are not demanded much. Fortunately, we had a prototype of another manufacturer's phone at our disposal that was supplied with a 256 MB DV RS-MMC card. The phone can see the card and works well with it. We'll note the card used had some limitations and was not a commercial product. That's why the only conclusion may be done that the phone is capable of working with such cards and no any problems will appear in future, the main thing is that more capacious cards should appear. We see that in some tests Nokia 6630 has double or triple advantage. That is mostly thanks to a faster processor, here it has a 220 MHz operating speed (ARM 5).
For comparison, in Nokia 7610 operating speed of an ARM4T processor is only 123 MHz. Widening of system memory area plays it role here. disk D has 8758 KB against 1403 in Nokia 7610. The phone as no evident rivals for the moment. Just think yourself that is the fastest device with maximum capabilities. The absence of the second camera for vide calls is explained with two reasons. First, there are not so many 3G phones now and a camera even increases their price. Second, those who really want to use the possibility make most of the calls from their offices or homes and that's why a special acces sory (a camera with a holder) was represented. The absence of the second camera may not be considered a disadvantage, that is a niche function for the moment. In the middle of the next year a renewed Nokia 6630 will appear and it'll be equipped with the second camera and more memory. The price for Nokia 6630 will be about $650 when the sales start.
And in a month it'll get about $600-$610. The difference of about $100 will always be kept between the model and Nokia 6670, so we shouldn't expect Nokia 6630 to get cheap soon. The product is the leader and it'll have a long life cycle. The device will be comparable with Nokia 7650 in its life time. In general a real choice of smarthones for one's needs appeared in the market. If you need a touchscreen and similar functions you mat buy a more expensive Sony Ericsson P910. If data input and easier navigation are not principle and the device is used for viewing data, seldom editing, the data is loaded from a PC then Nokia 6630 is the best.

I want to buy. This phone has only 2 bad things: low battery capacity and it does not support the EDGE technology. It is has perfect price/quality rate.
It has 176 X 208 TFT 65536-color screen, 24-channels poliphonic ringtones, and it may be used as an MP3-player. Supports WAP 2.0, GPRS Class 8, it has HTML browser and a E-mail client, IrDA, Bluetooth - all included. It also can use MMC cards as additional file storage. This smartphone has Symbian 7.0s operating system.

It is the one of the best cell phones of near past. It does not afraid water, it made very tough.
It really like an offroad car, comfortable and powerfull. It has one of the best functionality and features for that time. Very cool cell phone.

Well, this ancient phone was very cool at 1998. But now it is a history...
The best thing I activated on this phone was a NetMonitor. Cell tracking helped me a lot... It has IrDA, but it can be used only as connection for special software as LogoManager.

This phone is looking good, and it is good. I like its design.
This middle class device came to replace Nokia 6070. Such characteristics as EDGE and Push-to-Talk, VGA camera and IrDA as well as an integrated FM-tuner are worth mentioning.
Battery type Li-Ion 820 mAh (BL-5B),Color graphical display, up to 65000 colours(TFT), only 5 text lines, the resolution is 128x160 pixels. Dimensions: 105.4x44.3x18.6 mm. Total phone's memory forms 16 Mb, 4,3 Mb available to a user, so Java applications cannot use more than 4 Mb. It also supports GPRS (class 10), EDGE and WAP 2.0. It is a good mobile phone, and its price is average.

I do not know, what is the defference between 6010 and 6011i except some design elements? They have absolutely similar techmical characteristics. I do not recommend to buy this cell phone.

It looks like a smart phone, but it is not. So, it does not supports the EDGE, and it has an ugly polyphony - only 4 voices... So, 300 Kb inner memory is too few to consider functionally Java support. But, it supports GPRS, WAP 1.2.1.

Long time ago, at 2002, I wanted to by this phone. It supports WAP over CSD, but does not support GPRS.
It has a IrDA, and it has the same menu as a 3310. No additional featues, but price is twice as 3310. I tested it, and returned to the shop - it realy disappointed me.

This phone is designed for all, who is always running. It does not afraid to be dropped while running, it will work after falling down.
It is cheap, old, (designed at 2002) and ... useless for me. It has 4 voices polyphony, 3 games (Sky Diver, Triple Pop, Bounce) and FM radio. It supports GPRS, WAP 1.2.1, but does not support EDGE technology.

Wow, I love this smartphone. It is cheap enough, because this model was designed at 2003, and it has enough features for modern smartphone.
It does not support EDGE technology, but it works very well. I watched movies on this phone, used ICQ and many other applications. Only one thing is disappointed me - ugly, very ugly design.
The 3650 is a tri-band GSM phone. As well as the normal phone microphone and speaker, it also has a built in speakerphone, and is supplied complete with a headset as well. One of the obvious features of this phone is its color screen. The color screen is a lot smaller than on a PDA, but with a resolution of 176x208 pixels, it displays more information on it than older model PDAs (that have only a 160x160 pixel screen). A sophisticated address book enables you to store contact details and multiple phone numbers, and even pictures of, a virtually unlimited number of different people. You can also add 'voice tags' to 25 of your contacts, and then when you want to make a phone call, you simply say the person's name and the phone will recognize you and dial the number. Very helpful if you're driving in the car.
A distinctive feature of this phone is its rotary dial pad. It is very easy to quickly adjust to the different layout of the keys, and each key seems to be larger in size than on many other modern cell phones, making them easier to dial. The phone itself is also somewhat larger than many modern phones - 5.1" x 2.2" x 1.0". The phone also has space for an additional MMC type memory card. It comes supplied with a 16MB memory card, and you'll quickly find yourself needing to use this memory to store additional programs, additional data, and saved pictures. The phone has a Lithium Ion battery, which - in theory - is capable of 200 hours standby time or 4 hours of talk time, but in real it has less time of talk.
This assumes that the phone is enjoying a perfect strong signal all the time - the weaker the signal, the more power the phone uses due to increasing the strength of the signal it transmits to the cell. Now for one of the very powerful features of the phone. In addition to an IR port, it also has built in Bluetooth wireless networking capability.

This cell phone is expensive, usefull and really good. It has a large screen, which can be used like a display of pocketbook.
It has enough memory for play a games, run software, store photos and movies made by built-in camera. It has a 48-voice polyphony, MP3 player. It also supports EDGE (multislot class 5, up to 118,4kbps), WAP 2.0 (xHTML over TCP/IP), GPRS.
It has 6 Mb inner memory, and it can use RS-MMC cards. Other features are: CLDC 1.1, MIDP 2.0, Nokia UI API, Wireless Messaging API (JSR-120),Mobile Media API (JSR-135),Bluetooth API (JSR-82 No OBEX),Mobile 3D Graphics API (JSR-184). The handset is a standard 2.5G phone with Tri-band coverage at 900, 1800 and 1900 frequencies.
It supports GPRS, but there's no 3G shenanigans going on here. As such it makes sense that there's only a single camera on the back. This has a resolution of 1.2Megapixel count rather than the now more common 1.3 Megapixel. All this means is that maximum resolution pictures are 1,280 x 960 rather than 1,280 x 1,024. The former is actually a standard 4:3 resolution, though I'm not sure why Nokia has gone for one and not the other. Indeed Nokia itself seems a bit confused, as on its site we found a picture of the 3230 showing a 1.3 Megapixel label, which is clearly isn't.

This is the one of the cheapest model of Nokia with a color display. The price of this phone is near 70 USD, so it has no outstanding features for this price. 4-voice polyphony, low resolution screen, low memory. But it allow you to make a phone call and send SMS. But, "more than a cell phone" - that is not for this model.

This model was designed in 2003. It supports GSM 900/1800, and has weight less than 100 g. Cheap, but works well. It has ugly design (IMHO). It is a very basic phone. The display is black and white with very low resolution, and there are few features. A radio is included, but it is mono only. One of the biggest problems with the 2300 is the weird keypad design that uses joined-up and overlapping keys. Not easy to use, not very reliable, and not recommended!

This model is a 1100-class.
Cheap, high-quality and featureless. It has only 2 games (Snake II, Space Impact+), low screen resolution (96 x 65 pixels, 4 rows only) and supports WAP 1.1 and doesn't support EDGE technology.
It has no poliphonic ringtones. Also available: SMS and picture messaging support, with the ability to set up distribution lists Built-in picture composer (for picture messages and screen savers) Internal phone book memory White backlighting for display and keypad area Soft, translucent Xpress-on cover design Animated and static screen saver feature Rhythmic backlight and vibrate for ringing and message tones Automatic keyguard feature Sized a tad smaller than the 3300-series models, the 2100 is definitely more friendly to your jeans or shirt pockets that it calls home when you're out and about.
Although it has a more rectangular footprint, Nokia never fails to include rounded-off edges for any physical objects that you can see or touch. The use of the new BLD-3 type battery (being used similarly on the current 6610 and 7210 models) could be one of the reasons why the 2100 can be smaller and lighter. The 2100 retains a similar look and feel of other black-and-white-screened Nokia handsets, but you may realise a slight difference in the type and size of the typeface used on the screen (in other words, the font for the text display).
On most Nokia models, you could only fit up to nine numbers on a single line before the digits start appearing on the row above. For the 2100, ten digits fit comfortably on a single line - and not sacrificing readability either. On average use, I was able to obtain approximately 2-3 hours worth of talk time, and 2-3 days standby. Comparatively speaking, the 2100 is not the best performer when it comes to energy conservation.

This model was designed in 2005. It supports GSM 900/1800, and has weight less than 100 g.
Cheap, but works well. Nokia handsets are renowned for their ease of use. The Nokia 1600 phone continues this tradition with a new, highly intuitive user interface that makes full use of graphical icons and large font sizes all displayed on a 65,536 colour display. With the new menu structure, basic features, such as managing calls and contacts, are made easier to access.
Other new features include a Speaking Clock with Alarm, which announces the time in the user's local language, as well as large fonts to allow greater readability. In addition to polyphonic ring tones with MP3-grade sounds, the Nokia 1600 also features a number of cost management features, such as Nokia Prepaid Tracker, which automatically notifies prepaid users of their account balance after each call or message. The Nokia 1600 also features a "Demo Mode," an on-screen visual guide of primary phone functions for first-time cell phone users.
The demo guide also allows consumers to play the pre-installed games or hear the Speaking Clock without a SIM card inserted into the phone. Weighing 85 grams, the Nokia 1600 has a talk time of up to 5, 5 hours and a standby time of up to 450 hours. Nokia 1600 phones have excellent voice quality and coverage based on state-of-the-art radio software with AMR and SAIC.
The AMR (Adaptive Multi Rate) technology enables operators to add voice capacity within their networks smoothly and cost-efficiently. SAIC (Single Antenna Interference Cancellation) is a network independent capacity enhancing feature in the handset, improving network capacity and call quality.

This cell phone is a new model (2006).
It's cheap, but looks very cool. So, it price is less than 90 USD, so it functionality is very low.
It has monochrome screen (8 colors of grayscale), 96 x 68 pixels. 24-voices polyphony, 3 games - Snake Xenzia, Dice Games, Pocket Carrom, and 4 Mb inner memory.
It does not support neither EDGE, nor GPRS technology. But, it has a perfect design and may be found in Red, Blue, or Black edition.

This model is not so expensive, but it has many interesting features. It can use MP3 files as ringtones, supports 20-channel polyphonic melodies, has monochrome screen with 96 x 68 resolution, and has 3 games - Snake Xenzia, Dice Games, Pocket Carrom.

I have no idea, what is the difference between Nokia 1100 and Nokia 1101. Does anybody answer?
It has only 2 games (Snake II, Space Impact+), low screen resolution (96 x 65 pixels, 4 rows only) and supports WAP 1.1 and doesn't support EDGE technology. It has no poliphonic ringtones - that's absolutely the same features as has Nokia 1100.

Very cheap model. It is a good phone, but it's has no interesting features. Old model (2003). It has only 2 games (Snake II, Space Impact+), low screen resolution (96 x 65 pixels, 4 rows only) and supports WAP 1.1 and doesn't support EDGE technology. It has no poliphonic ringtones.

Ancient history of 2000. Nothig outstandig or special... It has many bugs, and I do not recommend to buy it.

It seems to be no difference between C155 and C115 except color display... Am I right? As usual, ugly as Motorola...

Only one feature of this phone can be interesting. It has dimensions 113 x 49 x 11. The other features seems to be not outstanding.

Expensive and useless.
Just try to buy it, it really disappoints you. That is a Motorola...
Here it's characteristics:
4,096 colour STN sub LCD,
96x80 pixel resolution
5.5 MB shared internal memory
2.2 inch 262,144 colour TFT main LCD,
 176 x 220 pixel resolution
Super-thin metal clamshell design with internal antenna
Quad-band GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
VGA digital still camera with 4x digital zoom
24 tone polyphonic synthesiser

Standard Motorola user interface with skin support SMS/EMS, MMS, e-mail and instant messaging MiniUSB and Bluetooth wireless connectivity Data synchronisation with PC applications xHTML browser (WAP 2.0 compliant) over GPRS Java (MIDP 2.0) support Technologically the V3 does not break any new ground; the feature set of the V3 is almost identical to that of the V600.
VGA camera, 24 tone polyphonic ringtones, Java MIDP 2.0 support and WAP 2.0 support. Internal memory remains unchanged at 5.5 megabytes, and there is no memory card support, although I can't imagine where they would put a memory card slot in such a thin phone. The main screen has been enlarged to 2.2 inches from 1.8 and had its colours upgraded to 262,000 from 65,000, although the resolution remains the same.
The V3 also gets a colour passive matrix LCD on the front of the flip, which can be used with the integrated camera to take self portraits. Skin support has also been added. The phone is manufactured entirely out of aluminium, and Motorola claim the building material to be of the same grade as used in the construction of aircraft. Indeed the phone felt extremely durable and solid, and the smooth metallic feel was a marked change to the plastic materials common to most mobile phones. The chemically etched keypad is also aluminium and features smooth lines and electroluminescent blue backlighting, which is extremely pleasing to the eye.
The keypad's layout is standard Motorola, although two new keys have been added. The layout consists of two soft keys and menu key at the top, followed by the typical four arrows keys and confirm key in the middle. Around this are the new mail and web browser shortcut keys as well as the dial and end call keys, with the 12 key numerical keypad below. Worth noting is the fact that this is the first Motorola phone to have the dial key on the left and the hang up key on the right, as Motorola have finally begun following the world standard in this key layout. The main screen used in the V3 is a new one made by Sharp for Motorola.
It is 2.2 inches in size and can display up to 262,000 colours at 176x220 pixel resolution. It is reasonably bright and colourful, although in bright sunlight the display fades out slightly. On the outside of the flip is a new colour STN LCD display, capable of displaying 4,096 colours at 96x80 pixel resolution. The addition of such a screen allows for you to use it as a viewfinder when taking self-portraits, but other than that I personally preferred the monochrome screen from the V600 as it is much brighter and doesn't require backlighting to read it - the V3's external screen goes completely black when the backlighting turns off, m aking it impossible to read without lighting it up again (by pushing one of the side keys).
The Motorola V3 is a quad-band GSM device, meaning it will work with any GSM network currently in existence, supporting 900/1800 MHz dual-band European and Asian networks, as well as 850 and 1900 MHz American networks. GPRS Class 10 support allows for packet data transmission at the highest possible GPRS speeds available, typically peaking at about 48 kilobytes per second. Internet access is through Motorola's WAP 2.0 compliant browser.
This browser can view xHTML and older WML pages, and is quick to load them as well. The V3 has a slim Lithium-ion battery installed with a capacity of 750 mAh, and officially is capable of up to 250 hours of standby time and six and a half hours of talk time. In practice the V3 lasted me a good three days on a single charge, with average usage of the phone ??? an hour of phone calls, 20 minutes of game playing and 20 minutes of camera usage, on average, per day.

Another archaic good cell phone. The main feature is that the battery can be replaced with 4 batterys AAA - if you do not have a backup battary, you could easy by 4 AAA batterys and stay online.

Well, this phone is a history. First Motorolas mobiles were great, and this one is not an exception. It has enough features for far 1998, but now it is a history... Good page of history of Motorola mobiles.

This phone is a good exception of ugly Motorola design. I like the design of this phone. It has enough features to be more than a usual phone, but it has enough bugs as any Motorola.

Ugly as Motorola - that is about this phone. It's ?heap, and it has a good GPRS modem, but it so ugly...

Another communicator from Motorola. I have no idea, why they made this smartphone, it is similar to A1000, but it has A-GPS navigator.
48 Mb inner memory is too few for such mobile phone. It does not support EDGE technology, so it can use GRPS only.

It looks like a smartphone. But looks ugly like Motorola....
It does not support EDGE technology, so it can use GPRS Class 10 only. It has USB Interface, IrDA, BlueTooth.
This smart cell phone running under Symbian 7.0 OS. Home screen is spilt into 6 zones : application selector bar, menu bar, information snacks, personal information, application shortcuts and status bar.
The A1000 supports all 3's video mobile services as well as offering advanced PDA functionality including a Microsoft document viewer, email, handwriting recognition via the touch-screen and calendar & contacts synchronisation with a PC.
The Motorola A1000 has an MP3 player on-board for playing music to the loudspeaker or to the supplied stereo headphones. Sound quality is good.
