Good Phone

Phone owned for less than a month

Loved the phone overall. Just do not like that it only has 8 gigs of ram. I fixed that though by getting a bigger micro SD card and formatting to use as RAM in my phone. Textin gsometimes does not enter right keys or any keys at times.

Phone with Potenial

Phone owned for less than 3 months

- My first impressions was that the phone was massive and that it was a decent phone with a decent camera. I was also surprised with a removable back and full hd video recording capabilities.
- There are a total of 22 pre-installed applications
- Camera preview is worse than actual photos

New cellphone

Phone owned for less than a month

Hello I am Mohammad Mahdi from Iran.
According to the texts that I read and after researching about the new phone of Nokia and specially about the nice design of white model and also the powerful battery I want to buy the phone as soon as better. The price in Iran is about 15,000,000 Rial or 110$ . And I think its the best choose with fantastic options and cheap price.
I hope Nokia won't disappoint me. Beacuse its my first Nokia and before this I had HTC SAMSUNG ,APPLE , and I should trust to Nokia. Thank s for reading . And sorry for bad English
