Worst phone I have ever used
20 Apr 2012 By Sandeep Garg On flipkart.com
I bought this as second phone as my BB got corrupted:nn1. UI response is too slow for a sane person. You have to wait for 'seconds' before it starts showing contacts. Even older generation phones respond faster. If I had used this phone for 5 minutes before ordering it, I would have never ever bought itnn2. SMS editor is absolutely pathetic. I have stopped sending SMS's altogether for the fear of agonizing experience you have to endure to type few numbers in it. I have tried tweaking the settings/options but to no effect. May be there is something that can be done with settings, but if a computer engineer can't find it out easily then what will be the state of general folks!!nn3. Crappy Camera: Too grainy, though I don't use muchnnI want to mention here that I was a big fan of low end Nokia phones for the value of money and usability they used to provide. However, this phone has just completely demolished the special place they used to hold in my heart.nnAnyone looking for a second hand Nokia C1-01 at a very cheap rate? Please give me a call, but do read the disclaimer above!!

Values your money!

I've bought it before 6 months @Rs. 2700 when it's in market for first time & using till now. This device is really satisfying in case of value for money. The gray one is more cool than the white one (i've). The short-cut feature is amazing; u can place 3 different size of transparent menu bar in the front display screan area with many shortcuts. I use to keep the time & date at the top; email, chat, gallary, browser, at the middle; & music player, radio at the bottom shortcut bar! Coz that looks prettier & gives u easy access to browse ur C1.nBut, for amature users it's quite tricky to find out the gallery & games, collection in extra.nThe email, chat features are cool. But, the ovi life tools in the new age Nokia phones are worthless, coz u've to pay more than it helps! nIt would be more cool if it's 3rd party Nokia theme supported; coz the menu bar at the bottom of the screen is too dull!nThis is a ovi suite conn. supported device & not comfortable for the Nokia PC Suite users (untill they install the new Nokia pc conn. cable driver).nThe VGA Camera in it is not for cool photographers!nBut, the data transfer GPRS conn. is faster than the other earlier new age devices from Nokia.nIt would be more effortable if the contacts can be insert in the msg index directly!nBattery life is good.nBut, the headphone with it is harm/painfull to the ear, so i'll like to advice u a new one with ear-buds...n've a intelligent shopping!
