Nokia 1100

Filed under: Nokia Review, Popular Phones — admin @ 12:19 PM

Nokia has released a cheap budget phone; a phone that could have been competitive with products from other manufacturers. This phone is made for older people, being conservative consumers. This means the sort of people who will buy a phone once, holding on to it as long as it works. This phone is for people with average or slightly less income in other words. Hence this model can’t be considered as massive, it’s a close circle targeted phone.
The Nokia 1100 has sleek design which seems like an attempt of stylizing for industrial design, disguised under the bright skin colours. Exchangeable covers are supported, and you can change front and rear panels.
The phone is not huge (106×46x20 mm), but it doesn’t sink in your hands either. You can actually feel its weight, although it’s just 86 grams. The lower part is much lighter than the upper one where the display is located.
A flashlight is located right in the middle of phone’s top. It consists of one light emitting diode and doesn’t give as much light as compare to Nokia 3200. In order to activate the flashlight, you’ll have to press the “C” button, pressing it twice will leave it turned on constantly.
Keys are closer with each other which is not comfortable. They are average by size and are rather tight when pressing them. Unfortunately the keys are not clearly seen in complete darkness which may affect the speed of SMS typing, but suitable for both dialing numbers and composing SMS’s.
The mic, charging jack and connector are located on the bottom. The display is graphical and black & white. It’s resolution is 96×65 pixels. Four text lines and once extra line for service needs can be displayed at once.
This phone offers a basic set of functions and a great battery duration. It would have been a typical Nokia phone if the network quality was alright. Your conversation partner’s voice doesn’t sound as clear as it does in more expensive models
The ringtones are usual and not polyphonic. They’re pretty loud, so don’t worry about hearing your phone when it’s ringing, you’ll hear it almost everywhere. The vibrating alert is good and it has enough strength to be surely felt when you’re carrying it in your jacket. A special mode can be activated as well: making the vibrating alert turn on first, followed by the ringtone. Another alternative is switching on the Rhythm, making the vibrating alert “beat” with the selected ringtone.
