One thing each mobile maker has forgotten that THERE ARE people who need mobiles for basis purposes.

Slim and sexy. nSuper loud speakers. nFreebies like free music and games. nSuper bright and big display. nErgonomic keypad, so easy for even elder ones. (Bought this for mom, she loves it)nBattery - as always, Nokia's biggest plus point. nnCONS :nOnly one - Camera. It could be 2mpx atleast, as Nokia already offers that camera in this price bracket. nnnFor Flipkart : nAmazing follow up of the order. Shipped in just 3 hours after placing the order. nAnd all the way from Delhi to Kutch - they delivered in just 46 hours !! Keep it up guys !

Hellow Friends, nnHere are the true reviews about this phone: nnUsed : 3 MonthsnnPros: The Good & Advantages n1) Express browser, Its true that it reduces 30-40 % of internet usage, very good speed cant expect better speed than this with 2G, Sites opens fast and supports all most all Mobile sites. (Dont expect desktop site pls ) n2) Screen Size and Body: Big, nice and clear screen, with correct match to the Body and key pads. very Nicely built. Looks killer (white )n3) Camera : U cant , yes I Mean u cant expect a better camera than this taking into consideration the fact that camera is only 1.3 MP . Very nice ..same u can compare with all other phones in the Mkt.. But u cant match with this 1.3 MP camera ...n4) WHATAPP & FB : Again this is a gift for all the users as it has got preinstalled APPs. But BUT Note : This is a BASIC VERSION OF WHATSAPP dont expect rich and updated version.. its so basic u will more experience as sending SMS chat rather than whatapp wich you do on android phones. But u can still send and received PIC and Videos.. Wich takes so much timen5 ) YOUTUBE man YOUTUBE : yes you heard it rite man.. u can browse videos... only in the begining it buffers but once its started.. it will runs so smoothly ..BUT dont expect grt quality of videos.. u can watch vidz thats it .. nnCOns : The Bad and the Ugly disadvantages. :n1) BATTERY BATTERY : yeah its was a shock for Me :O ... really.... I never expected this from a basic BAR phone.... Battery drains in within some hours of use if you keep ON the Date (internet connection) and Battery chargeable time is 3 Hrs.. yes u heard it rite...nand after continueus usage of internet (whatsapp) for 2 hrs.. Battery drains up ..nEven if u keep the internet in ON mode.. with in some hours it comes to final Point... Very disappointing ...nnn2) VERY Basic Phone : While using this phone u will definetly get a feeling of using a Classic black and white (Feature and theme wise ) Nokia phone... All the apps are old and not updated... Which we used 7 years ago.. very basic..n3) Slow WHATSAPP , FB : Thought this phone has got these APps preinstalled .. but you cant expect speedy things in it.. u need to keep on waiting for opening , viewing , downloading wathcing the IMAGEs/ VIDEO sent on the phone.. Pheww.....sometime its so slow that You will b forced to lock the phone and get to work.. SLOw man Slow...n4 ) ULTRA SLOW System : Oh God.. I never seen such a Slow phone..E>G If you open the images folder to view the pics ... U have to always wait for seconds..to open view n close... Phew...VERY SLOW>>>>>>>>>>>PHONEn5) VERY LOW INTERNAL MEMORY : Oh god.. its a mess .....if you chat with your frnds on SMS or even on WHATSAPP for long .... A notification keeps on flashing... Memory low memory low ..then u need to delete all SMS and WHATSAPP Chat.. Sad part is if you like to read the old msgs /chats of GF/BF again ..then no use.. bcoz after a long chat Phone memory fills and ask us to delete the memory... :( :( :( very sad.. and inhuman activity it is nNo USB : no usb b port... nnConclusion : If you are user a basic phone user and want a decent chating on whatsapp/sms with limited access to internet and browsing THIS PHONE IS EXCLUSIVE MADE FOR YOU....Just go and grab It today itself... dont think for a second....nBut if you are a young blood and want a speed in life , lot more to do on a mobile.... Then please avoid this TORTOISE SPEED PHONE... as per my suggestion .. unless you dont have much to spend on MOB. ..Rest upto to you.. and these reviews are as per my sole usage and experience with this Machine :-PnnHope this review will help atleast a single person in the planet...nnAnd at last : Dont underestimate the power of a common man. !! :) :) nnHv a grt day :-) :-)

Let me just get you the points.nnPros:n1. Battery life : 7 daysn2. Great design (Many people have asked me,"Is this a Lumia?")n3. Slam feature (Makes file sharing very simple)n4. Screen is good in sunlightn5. XPress internet browser (reduces 50% of data usage)n6. Face detection camera.n7. And of course the trust and customizibility of nokia.nnCons:n1. Not so great a camera (at a zoom of 100%)n2. Face detection only works for self portrait.n3. Whatsapp is not included (although it can be downloaded easily)nnSo these 10 things finish my description. If you are gonna use the camera for social networking, it is great.

Had bought Nokia 206 considering its battery life and simple interface in mind, but am regretting it big time (though battery life is good).nn1) What no one has till now highlighted is the HEARING QUALITY of the phone which is HIGHLY PATHETIC !! You will not hear a Clear voice from the other end but a thick/flat voice which will make hearing a pain. The hearing quality can be clearly differentiated from other phones which are way clearer.nn2) To rectify this I even got the model REPLACED, but even with the 2nd Handset the same PROBLEM PERSISTED ==> which clearly tells that it is not a single piece problem but the phone hearing quality is unacceptable!nn3) Another major problem is that the SPEAKERS of the phone ARE AT THE BACK, which means that if the phone is kept on the bed or on the table with screen facing you, you will NOT HEAR THE PHONE RINGING AT ALL, unless you are very near it.nn4) To add, the SPEAKER of the phone is also NOT LOUD enough.nnThis is totally not expected from someone like NOKIA !! Just goes to show that you cannot trust NOKIA even for simpler phones these days. nnI have been a long time Nokia user, hence had to pen down this review so as to highlight that people don't get cheated by buying this phone as I am sure you will face the problems mentioned above. nnAt the same time 'I WON'T' suggest to buy any cheap brands ( likes of Lava, Karbonn, Micromax etc) either as you will surely face problems with them in the long run ===> Go for any other reputed brand (Samsung, Sony etc) but not this this NOKIA phone please !!!
