Nokia 100 - User Reviews

  • My mother has it and it is very useful. The battery, 6-7 years after purchase is still going strong, one week or more of standby. You can count on it. It shows the date and time of SMS received whereas my smart Android-based LG does not show the time. It had signal on the top of the mountain where my LG did not have. No complains about the sound quality.

  • Pros: Light weight, simple menu. Cons: Plastic breaks easy, caller can't hear me talking and sometimes call sound is mute. Gladly i have other spare phone.

  • good: very lightweight, long battery (last row one week), moisture did not cause problems bad: very poor light, sms did not show time or date when received or sent

  • Even when I set the ringtone output to level 1 it is still way too loud :/

  • The phone's demo shows a Nokia 1650 for some reason.

  • One thing to note when getting this phone: Some Nokia 100 models come with the games Forbidden Treasures, Vacation Solitaire and Sudoku, while other Nokia 100 models come with just 1 game, Snake Xenzia. There's no way to tell which Nokia 100 models come with which games.

  • It does on T-Mobile, in some places it does on Verizon but it definitely doesn't on AT&T or Sprint.

  • Its only a 2G phone. I doubt it works in the USA.

  • Nothing wrong with your mobile. Call up your SIM card provider/telephone company, and tell them to de-activate your voice mail.

  • It cannot use by MPT SIM(Myanmar).how can do help me

  • Good battery, easily lasts 1-2 weeks if not using the phone much.

  • I have problems deleting voice mails also, I have to listen to them which costs me a lot of money before they tell me how to delete them, is there a way to delete them before listening to them. Please help

  • good basic phone, but cannot delete voice mails without reading them, unless someone knows better?

  • really good

  • pretty handy.

  • Press unhold next time.

  • Is your phone still available?

  • Then, after the call has gone on hold by mistake, how do I set it free?

  • How do I prevent my Nokia 100 from putting calls on hold instead of letting me answer them?

  • surely not! ;-)

  • S30 os verson

  • I have an iPhone but I work in a finance sector where all data is confidential. So I need a phone without a camera during my working hours inside the building only. But I need one which supports whatsapp. Does this support whatsapp? Is it a Symbian phone? Which OS version?

  • I forgoten my security im using nokia 100 modelRH130

  • You can go to eBay to buy the phone.

  • Wer can i buy nokia 100..i want 2 buy nokia 100 easy to use pls help me.,i'm her in quenzon city

  • I want to buy..,wer can i buy plz help me

  • But 1 small disappointment with Nokia 100: it doesn't have the classic Snake game. The Nokia 105 does though and so I'm glad I bought the Nokia 105.

  • to add on: My first phone was a Nokia 3210, I was a teenager and I got it after about 1 year after launch, 15 years ago. It cost $99 back then. I have alot of memories with it. My latest phone is actually a smartphone - Nokia Lumia 525, which is good, more user friendly and better battery life than your typical Android phones. It's able to take a beating too, it dropped several times and no problems except a small chip at the corner which is purely cosmetic. So 6 days ago I took out this Nokia 100 (a spare phone which was not used before), charged it up and decided to give it a go for the heck of it, to see how long the battery will last and relive life using a regular handphone, and try to get away from using a smartphone for awhile. I like the experience. And this Nokia 100 is far better and cheaper than the Nokia 3210 I had. Better design, battery life, screen, features etc. $30 phone bought 2 years ago better than $99 phone 15 years ago, this shows how far technology has come. I was so impressed that I went out 3 days ago to buy a Nokia 105 for $22, the successor to the Nokia 100. 1 more thing: I used the flashlight lightly. And it's VERY useful. So I will like the revise my rating of Nokia 100 from 9/10 to 9.5/10.

  • Used this for 6 days, started from full charge (6 bars) and now it's left with 2 bars. I used it for light calling, light gaming, no SMSing, and played around with the settings at the beginning. As I used up 4 bars of battery in 6 days, I estimate that the remaining 2 bars can last me another 3 days, for a total of 9 days, which is not bad at all considering that I used it for light-normal usage. The phone is very light. It is also very small and may slip easily or be hard to grip especially if you have big hands like me. It moves around like a fish when I try to press its buttons with 1 hand. But I like the design, small size and light weight very much, and don't consider the above to be problems. Mine is in Legion Blue, which is a sort of teal colour, and I like it very much, personally I think it's the nicest colour for this model. The phone seems well made, the buttons are very nice to press, overall it seems durable like any classic Nokia. However, the plastic cover is abit creaky and doesn't seem engineered for 100% exact tight fit, but for $30 this isn't an issue for me. Voice leakage does exist with this model. But it doesn't really bother me because when you are using the phone outside on the streets, the traffic and pedestrian noise will overcome the voice leakage. Everything is loud and clear (voice calls, loudspeaker and ringtones). Excellent reception, always max reception in most areas except for known problematic reception areas like inside lifts, which still has 2 to 3 bars of reception, which is network penetration issue not phone issue, the phone's reception is the max that the network will give in any particular area. Screen display and contrast are good in sunlit areas, clear to see unlike smartphones. Overall I rate this phone 9/10. Cheap, excellent voice quality, loud, clear, excellent reception, nice design, long battery life, reliable, easy to use, nice buttons, small and light easy to carry around, easy to see in sunlit areas. I only deduct 1 point because of voice leakage and cover is abit creaky, but these are negligible issues which don't bother me at all for a phone at this price.

  • may i get the baring code

  • Yes, it'll not work in US but you can come to india and it'll work. YOu're welcome in India.

  • Nokia 100 is dual band, your country might be triband, eg it wouldnt work in north america.

  • Sorry stephen11222... That probably means the GSM Band made available from your African network is not compatible with that version of Nokia 100's GSM Bands. Check with your network the available bands and then check the specifications under "2G Network".

  • pray to god

  • i am having nokia hundred and have moved to africa but when i insert any other sim card it does not work with the local network so i want to know if there if any solution to my problem so that i can use my phone here in africa

  • Have a nokia 100 phone made: 07/2010. It has fell down many times but very recently it is doing automatic reboot. This happens when the phone is thrown on sofa, or when a call comes. It shows "Battery Low" then "Battery empty" and then either switches off or reboots. I checked battery BL 5C it is not bulged nor hot. I checked the battery contacts. the middle pin was slightly bent, I corrected it to look like other 2 pins. And for some time there was no frequent reboot. But the problem is there. It occurs randomly sometimes rebooting and sometimes showing low battery (even if it is fully charged)

  • Not able to send more than 100 sms so pls sujjest to increase the limit

  • On the scroll key - large centre key- during the call press down on the left side for quieter or the right side for louder.

  • how to remove the silent mode .... please help what are the steps .... many thanks =)

  • It happens just because your sim card is either dirty on the contact plate or it´s not getting full contact, you can try to clean it with a dry clean fiber mob if it doesn´t work just try to bend the holding case of the sim card to push it against the contact pins, it should work.

  • try to bend the metal cover that holds the SIM card so that as a way to push more on sim card to make better contact Works 100% !!! sorry for my english

  • Have just bought a Nokia 100. Is there a short cut key to turn the phone to silent?

  • the best mobilephone ever made !

  • nice mobile

  • Hi there, I'm thinking of purchasing one of this. I'd need some info: - is vibrating alert that strong that the phone can slip on wooden tables while vibrating? - Is there any possibility to send SMS messages to pre-defined group of contacts? (has it got "contact groups" or "multiple adresses for messages" features?) Thanks in advence.

  • Theres no Data (GPRS) Therefore no Facebook

  • How to download there is nothing in xda site about nokia phones.Only nokia n9,nokia n900,nokia 950 supports android dual boot.giving thanx to nokia is good,but dont give thanx to xda developers.

  • every phone supports facebook,u shud enable an facebook by sms.

  • Does this mobile support facebook in any kind ..

  • sir how u download android jelly in this mobile

  • I installed android 4.2 JB on this mobile. and working great. Thanks Nokia and XDA forum.

  • Try 12345

  • Great phone for little money! Despite it looks very cheap made, it is working very well. Color screen is great, keypad is very useful for messaging. My Nokia 100 has fallen me on floor more times but it has no damages. I think it is great idea to produce basic cheap phones in this "smartphone era", when producers think that you need a computer and a TV in your pocket.

  • how to unlock security code? Help me out, if you know the truth code to unlock the security code of Nokia 100,

  • super and ultimate mobile.... great to have this mobile with me...

  • I love it better than a smart phone

  • im struggling to open the back of mine. is there a trick?

  • Audio quality for calls is really, really bad. To the point of unusable.

  • it is a nice phone,my gf also uses that very model.it has very nice voice quality

  • Nice model and I like it !

  • It is a nice phone but can get easily lost because it is very small and the colour is camouflage. The texting takes a very long time and sometimes I don't get someones text for 2 days. Very disappointing :(

  • Handset is very good

  • though its cheap and basic, its battery time is awful, 5 days at the most on standby, and i took it back to swap with another, at the shop, the second phone had same faults, so i got a samsung cheapo,. super !

  • Is The Phone in great condition and is it workable.

  • my nokia 100 mobile phone is display not working

  • i like this mobile bcz its battery power is toooooo gooooooooooood....

  • just flip the phone on the speaker side and talk man..seriously i am using this phone for a year.i just love it! my company gave it to me instead of iphone.

  • Fantastic little phone, bought one because my smart phone had a faulty touch screen. long battery life. Easy to read colour screen. Good positive keypad. Rugged build quality. Reception loud and clear even in bad reception areas. Has 6 phone books, a calendar organiser, clock and alarm, predictive texting. Loud clear radio, Bright torch. 64mb internal memory which is more than enough for a simple basic phone like this. This is my first Nokia and I'm really pleased with it.

  • How long does the battery last being used everyday?

  • Nokia 101 is the best mobile phone used in all over the world. I like its keypad a lot of...

  • I like this phone. It is very schock resistant and shows no marks despite suffering with my clumsy hands. I like the addition of a colour screen. The battery life is decent but bad next to the nokia 3210 3310 and 3410. obviously, the colour screen drains much of that battery.

  • donot purchase this handset, its speaker & mike both are weak..with poor battery backup

  • I think its 200 msgs

  • My BB was stolen while onboard the MRT/LRT in Manila. I bought this for a cheap replacement. It serves me well and got what I want (call/text). It will not be stolen again because its cheap. Pickpockets in Manila only steal expensive phones LMAO

  • I agree with you

  • Hello I am very happy with my Nokia 100, it is a very simple inexpensive little phone and the talking clock when you can no longer see the time is very handy. Don't get it if you want more than a phone to make and receive calls. Also you d... But in this mobile SMS fecility not compatible.

  • Got it on t-mobile. I have a signal everywhere i go. Used to have an iphone then sony xperia t but struggled for signal, even in my home. Cracking basic phone which is why i got it. Nothing flash. You can phone and text. Definitely get one.

  • I am very happy with my Nokia 100, it is a very simple inexpensive little phone and the talking clock when you can no longer see the time is very handy. Don't get it if you want more than a phone to make and receive calls and send smses. Also you don't have to keep charging it which I find very convenient.

  • surprised you can only write a short name in the directory it really is a problem, if you have two people of the same surname and there is no space for their initials it's a pain in the butt

  • nice handsate

  • Please dont buy this handset. One disgusting handset from nokia. Wondering how nokia would manufacture this kind of handset:( The speaker is behind the phone. Has problem with network and everything else..

  • how do I delete the voice mail? I don't really want an answering machine

  • your phone is probably locked to a specific provider

  • does it have soft keypad????

  • mini-SIM is the usual one. full size SIM card is the size of a credit card.

  • This item takes a standard SIM card not a mini as advertised in the spec.

  • my phone has lost network since December 2012, when i put another service provider, it still has no network. what do i do?

  • Voice leakage problem is there. Otherwise its good to use.

  • everytime i go in ringtone they phone shut down

  • uhm my nokia has a problem whenever i try sending an sms it tells me that the sms has been stored but not sent

  • hmm........nokia 100 does it hav a gud radio??

  • Ive used Nokia 100 handsets for around a year now. They are a good, simple little phone, but do have the voice leakage issue ( I put my finger over the grille on the back). Earlier softwareversions have an issue where every call out of five or so resulted in it being routed directly to the loudspeaker. To sort this you need to take the handset to a service centre, this fixed the problem for me. Overall a good little handset from nokia, i like the larger scren over things like samsung e1080 or e1200. Think its about time for nokia to update though, and the 111, 112, 113 and 114 have dual speaker set up, and feel more robust. Hope this helps :)

  • You can easily fix the voice leakage "issue" by slightly changing the way you hold the phone - just put a finger on the speaker holes (the only holes on the back panel) on the back. And it is not something you can really call a major fault of the device it is made to be cheap, so they cut the number of speakers and I have to say I'm quite impressed with the results.

  • u can't.only way is to change the phone

  • brother you dont know what u are talking about,first of all,this phone is single sim phone,ok,and second,this phone uses A SINGLE speaker for ringtones,earpiece calls and speaker,thats why when you make a call,the voice comes out through the ear piece and also throught the rear panel speaker.that's how this phone is built!

  • I use this phone to to build my house

  • can u pls help me to know how to stop the voice leakage

  • ear piece is in front & speaker in back,good sound quality and network coverage.it has no voice leakage as you claim.Single sim devices have better sound quality than dual sim,just try.

  • Baby,english is the first language only in countries like UK,US,aus,nz,canada.Many other nations like India use english for communication as a 2nd language.In USA do they rely on gramatical correctness as in England,Never!-same way you have no reason to call others illiterate just because you are offended by their english usage.Most of these low end nokia phones are made in India,and most buyers are also from India.

  • this phone has voice leakage,it has one single speaker on the back side which serves for ear piece calls also.if you use this phone in a relatively low-noise enviroment,the persons near you can hear your discussitions.battery life is good,but signal strenght is really bad.i bought this phone 1month ago,brand new, and i'm dissapointed

  • hei frenz..can y0u tell me h0w l0ng d0es this n0kia 100 battery will last with n0rmal usage like sms n calls 0nly?

  • i b0ught n0kia 100 t0day as my sec0ndary ph0ne.h0nestly it was great! i l0ve it s0 much. i use it 4 texting n i felt s0 impressed with it. very s0ft keypad..very suitable 4 me as i always texting with my frens. thanx n0kia 4 this simple n great in0vati0n! keep it up! h0pe n0kia will release a perfect basic ph0ne later with m0re features n abs0lutely l0ng lasting battery!

  • did you mean 'commenters'? the word 'commentator' has a slightly different meaning. you may want to look it up. from the way you've used a space before the question mark, i'm guessing you're not a native english speaker yourself (that's a french thing) :) i'm not a native english speaker.

  • Are all of the commentators illiterate, or is it that English is not their first language ?

  • This is a phone for calling and texting. a workingmans phone. ussually for some older people.

  • It's difficult to open

  • Once you have removed back of phone put a small bit of vaseline on the 2 plastic spring clips about halfway down inside of lid on each side. Replace back and you will find very little pressure is required to remove the back. No need to use rubber gloves or a hammer!

  • on plug next to plastic pin it says 'push'. push it up and it fits 3 pin socket

  • so much force? even my little sister can open the phone with no effort on her part whatsoever... *-)

  • i had to search the internet to find out how to open the phone. how can nokia market a product with such a problem ? in the diagram they show it with the thump sliding the cover downward. in reality you need both palms of your hand and so much force you are afraid to brake the dam phone!

  • I love this phoe

  • I bought this phone for my dad purely for its simplicity, durability, and big clear key pad. It's a pleasure to use and the call quality is excellent and clear. Great value for money phone (bought it new for 18 dollars)

  • hi guys!! i just want to share my experience with this phone. I bought it 4 months ago (if im not mistaken) due to financial crisis. Yeah, I sold my htc incredible S and get this phone so I can still use something to text and call. Well, what do you expect from a 1,250.00 pesos worth of phone?? A robust, cute (sorry for the gayish term hehe), functional phone. (sorry for being too redundant with the word "phone" hehe). It has a good battery that may last up to 3 days without charging (what else would i use this for? hehe). It is pretty light. Lighter than the previous nokia phone. I think the blue color looks cool. very solid color. I play with this phone when doing to do. I repeat play with. hehe. not playing the games but taking away my boredom by doing something on it like when I used it to balance 5 items. I also balanced it in a faucet that has a bucket of water under it. I bit it out of boredom also the screen got cracked but still functioning. I failed to recall how many times I dropped this phone both accidentally and intentionally (grin!!) hehe. I have loved this phone because its with me all this time. a truly magnificient phone.Anyway I wrote this phone due to boredom hehe.

  • is the gsm 1800 a tri band

  • Good phone at low cost.. But ear piece volume is too low..

  • software is very slow otherwise it's good with low cost of view.

  • How would you feel after using it??

  • I purchase Nokia 100, but I dont understand use of Empty ringtones. Pl. tell me how to load or compose new ringtones ???

  • Great basic 2g phone if you just want to call and text. Light and small. Got a free 02 sim card with it from Argos and was up and running with a new mobile number within 5 minutes of opening the box.

  • Turn the phone face down in your hands hold the bottom of the phone in your left fingers and keep your thumb out of the way and then push and slide the back down with your right thumb, I had the same problem at first till i sussed it but must admit instructions are not very clear.

  • This is a nice little phone for a basic or second handset for the price, I bought this just for a back up phone and found it good in most functions apart from one and that was if used the key pad lock a lot of the time i could not get it to unlock again or switch it off so i had to just take the battery out so i could get into the settings to turn the key pad lock off.

  • its a phone for rough And tough peopple canuse it in any conditions

  • slide bckwrda without obstructing back movement

  • i have this fone nokia 100... i want a ringtone in it. A song i loved the most "Tere waste mera ishq sufiyana" of Dirty Picture but as it contains no connectivity with pc or internet i could not get it. can anybody tell me how to do tht.Plz help...

  • Does this phone have the facility of speed dialing?

  • had mine 2 days could'nt get the back off it was driving me mad then eventually it came off hold tightly both ends and slide it does eventually work.Then sim did not sit properly slide under the metal bar works as a torch and alarm clock and radio not bad for £13 from Tesco

  • bro, hold the phone with a little bit pressure and just slide the back cover down, me, i can manage to take it off using one hand..

  • it is useless because ear sound problem and not supporting call records and feturs are given call records so so all frod.............

  • Absolutely atrocious. DO NOT buy one of these. Got one and I simply cannot get it open to insert battery and sim card. The instructions are useless. What is the point of spending money on something you cannot get operational?

  • can run a truck over this phone it is so robust

  • and now im going to its pros.. hehe it's cute and stylish, the keypad is so soft that i can say it's good, i can manage to text fast without delay, it's soooo handy, its speaker is good, its loud!! the battery last for about 3 days.. but 1 thing i noticed, it's so light like a weight of a toy.. hehe but all in all im happy with this phone!!but no thanks to nokia..you're cheap!!!better if this phone is not made in china!!!!!@@

  • i dont know because... i cant use it

  • i just bought mine this day, october 1, 2012 what can i say, first on packaging, the packaging is not the same compare to the old basic phones from nokia..it is cheap!! second, the accesories, the battery has no green nokia sticker hand logo with dots around, and the charger looks class A.. third, is the GUI, graphical users interface...so slooooooww unlike the older phones of nokia which was soooooooo smooth.. nokia is now become cheaper?? that's all i can say since i have just bought this tonight..70% annoying!!!@@

  • I have recently owned a Nokia 100. Here is my review: Pros -Soft keypad -simple design -good battery life (lasts a week) -Radio Cons -Voice leakage (not that bad but still an issue) -slow software/UI (tolerable)

  • I have the same problem, did you manage to solve it?

  • Nice opinion. Thank to you, thanks to Nokia and many thanks to GSM Arena team.:)

  • It wasn't bugs, just like nokia c1-01, its front speaker, buzzer, and vibra are assembled into one single speaker

  • This is a great, simple call and text phone that includes an FM radio and torch. No you cant surf the web on it,but its not a target for phone thiefing either. Its so simple I got my 72 year old Mother one, AND she can text easily on it.Yep the back is hard to get off the first couple of times, just persevere and the press and slide does get easier.

  • roomantic phone

  • This little phone looks good but it has a lot of bugs. Whenever a try to call the front speaker doesn't works, and the sound comes from the back speaker. That's so annoying. And it's very difficult to open the cellphone to insert the battery and sim card. 1/5

  • very nice mobile.

  • If you want ONLY talking and messaging,then there is NOTHING better on market.And you've got even radio and torch.Phone is so light and small,one can hardly believe,it is real device.And the great one !

  • I buyed this phone today(01/09/2012)it is nice,beautiful,fantastic,fabulous,awesome and superbbb...!!! Its look,its very soft and big kepads,its battery packup,its voice clarity,its network capability are the mindblowing features of this phone!!! This phone is perfectly designed with having basic features for basic phone from my lovely brand Nokia!!! I love Nokia...!!!

  • Pett kammi

  • My Boyfriend bought one of these and I asked him to marry me straight away. The sight of the phone protruding from the top pocket of his shirt really did it for me. We are getting married very soon and am even considering getting the best man to record his speech on this little beauty. The plan then is to play the speech back through a sound system to the guests! The we do not need to invite the best man to the actual wedding. Wow! yet again, Nokia are saving us money as they did with this cheap phone. Well done Nokia!

  • A tidy little phone. Really stylish and will get you noticed. A real bird magnet. I have noticed I am getting a lot more attention from the women since I bought this little baby. I spend hours just admiring the little beauty. Do not leave this laying around, people will be fighting to steal it

  • Speaker and FM features are importent in basic modele mobile, the both things very worst in this set, key pad is realy soft.

  • A great little phone, light, cheap, battery lasts for ages, loud ringtones, good call quality.

  • as a normal ph it's not good it's too good

  • A nice cheap fuss-free and cheerful phone from Nokia-don't mind the lack of Bluetooth (have other Nokia phones with that), has a fun speaking clock and handy flashlight. Calling on it is quick and nice with easy to press keys, clear quality

  • nice fon... u cannot hear d other side talking...

  • How get extreme laoud speaker whit bas like nokia 1616

  • How do you hard reset this thing? I tried *#7370# and it's not working?

  • To set Voice mail, menu>contacts>settings>voice mail

  • Wow, you must like those hidden features, so nice if you to share.you must be so gutted that you didn't get your hands on one of those devices before now.I mean you were using desire hd , it's quite a bad phone eh?

  • Dude! He is talking about the back case, the battery compartment.

  • what slide??? It's NOT a slider man

  • How do I set up voicemail and my own ansaphone message, please?

  • I bought a new One for my sister. I faced some problems initially with the FM. It functioned very slowly and restarts the phone. Battery life is not much durable as other low end Nokia mobiles(up to 3 days in common usage). Voice leakage through the back speaker is a problem. FM radio on loud speaker is good. But FM through ear phone is not usable(like a 50K radio ear phone). I had been used a low end Sony ericsson j120. Its FM throug ear phone is superb as many other mp3 phones. Display is good. And ringtones are loud.

  • just press and slide

  • Bought yesterday, but haven't managed to get the back cover off to put in battery and sim card - not a good start!

  • thats 100% tru- i strongly believe that,i have friends with the same prob-- huge dissapointment Nokia

  • Great Phone! Am using this as a Secondary phone and it's been great. Good battery Life and simple to use. Got a flashlight as well. SAR value is also safe.

  • Great Phone! Am using this as a Secondary phone and it's been great. Good battery Life and simple to use. Got a flashlight as well. SAR value is also safe.

  • Am in Ghana and I have had this phone for about 2months and i think its quite good except for a few drawbacks. 1;the graphics processor is a bit slow 2;800mAh battery runs down too quickly(3days) 3;screen too glossy 4;radio preset memory too small, just 10 stations 5;a bit too long. 6;keypads a bit too firm, hurts your fingertips when inputing a lot of text I do not think it has an auto loudspeaker issue, rather because of the low refresh rate of the display we tend to press the recieve key twice, turning on the loudspeaker

  • I graduated to this Phone after using HTC Desire HD for 1 year and I really loved it. Desire HD's screen itself was bigger than the phone. Press the Power Key 90 times and this phone switches to Android ICS mode. If you sms "Give me a Camera" to your number, the hidden camera comes out from the Back side. It is 12 Megapixel and records HD Video. Also if you wear latex gloves, the screen becomes sensitive to touch. If the hidden features are used properly, This probably is the best phone in the market :-)

  • can u get music on nokia 100

  • I really like this phone. I've been on the Android/iOS boat for quite sometime now. Ever since I lost my phone I had quickly bought this and, I tell you, what a refresher. Everything was simple and great. I'd like a better speaker though, and I'm pretty sure every owner of this thinks so too. The most notable aspect of this is the keypad - responsive and not too soft or hard. You have to admit, you guys missed the little strap holder thing where you can put cute little key chain things.

  • i have this mobile while 1 month and it is great!works perfeck and has a good battery life.just buy it

  • Tanx gsm arena

  • P1500 only

  • poor battery life....and never use this..

  • nice phone...worth the price

  • This phone has a problem with its loud speaker ..when ever I recive a call its loud speaker turns on automatically

  • Nice opinion. Thank to you, thanks to Nokia and many thanks to GSM Arena team.:)

  • i cant believe it dosent have a camera!!! LOL!! :D :D :P :P u lookin' 4 an amazing phone?....get a blackberry!! :D

  • The phone is great and does exactly what you expect it to do for $20. The only drawback is that it doesn't have snake!!!!!!! Is there any way to get it?

  • I'd just got one yesterday, and I never had any automatic loudspeaker problem whenever I have call,... PROS: *Cheap *good build quality *call quality in coming and out going was great *decent signal *decent keypad *light weight (but a little to light for my liking) * matte finish makes it fingerprint free(but the screen is glossy) CONS * only 2 color pink and blue green(only the 101 has more color option, but maybe you can buy the 101 casing if you really want to) *the free earphone has an old school design, the ear plug wires have same length so you CANNOT wrap it around your neck to avoid getting in the way,. *glossy screen easy to have fingerprint NOTE: IF YOU WANT TO BUY THESE I FOUND IN MY RESEARCH THAT YOU SHOULD INITIALLY CHARGE THIS 6 HOURS DONT TO GET THE MAXIMUM BATTERY PERFORMANCE, THEN AFTER THE FRIST CHARGE YOU CAN NOW FOLLOW THE BATTERY INDICATOR FOR WHEN TO STOP CHARGING.

  • I got it today and its easy - wonderful phone! There are all you need for USUAL m.phone: SMS, Calls, Organizer, Calc, Flashlight, Phonebook, Good battery life! Phone for working peoples (you dont need to worry about crashing it - it CHEAP, really cheap)!

  • and how can we come to know about some mobile about its message memory can be shifted to memory card or not? something specified with specs??

  • what is the message memory of this mobile? 150 or some more?? and does any one can tell me about nokia 101 as well, it has got memory card slot can we shift messages to memory card memory??? if some one can tell me other basic phone with high message memory will highly be thankful, no problem which ever company

  • Guys, I just bought this phone and as far as I can tell, there is only one problem with it...the brightness level, did anybody have this problem? Also...does anyone have a quick solution or do I just squint my eyes for 20 minutes to try and adjust it?

  • wiii how much is it in Philippines?

  • AGREED! Outstanding simplicity! I use phone exactly what it was built for.

  • it maybe because u didn't change the first two number of you phonebook numbers... instead of 09... u will change that to +639... or vise versa... if I'm not mistaken... just try it... have a nice day...

  • What do you except from a $20.00 phone. Seriously....

  • Great little phone crystal clear and good loudspeaker (so you can leave it on the worksurface while you chat). Clear display and the battery lasts a week between charges. A real breath of fresh air

  • yeah this phone dosent look that good. get a blackberry quys!!! xxxxxxx:D

  • i got nokia 100 recently. the problem is, wen sum1 calls me i cant c their number. it cums up as private number. ive checked with my network provider, its nothin rong with that. can any 1 help me with this problem.

  • The worst phone I have ever bought. Sick off this phone in a few weeks and going to through it. Guys, this phone has so many problems, never buy this, even nokia 1100 is better then this shit. Problems in my nokia 100: 1. The worst problem was, when anybody calls me, it shows "Private number". I tried calling from my landline also, but shows the same. Changed settings, did everything but couldnt solve the problem. 2. No call option in missed or received call list. Means if I try to select a number from missed call list and click green call button to call that number, it shows dialed numbers list instead of calling that number. So annoying. 3. Speaker is like a loudspeaker in the back side of the phone, means people standing near me can listen my conversation very easily. I sometimes couldnt talk much in public. 4. Sometimes loudspeaker turns on automatically. 5. Reception is not even satisfactory. I dont know why nokia is still selling this phone when it has so many problems.

  • No, it doesnt have bounce game. it has only one game, the snake one.

  • This keypad is really sweet. perfect for messaging!

  • hey guysss it is one of the bakwas mobile, 1)signal problem 2)ear piece problem and also some times loud speaker automaticaly get on. i have new piece ,never buy this phone okkkkkkkkkk

  • Just got the nokia 100 for £11 and it's great. A basic no frills phone for texting and phoning. People are getting sick of smart phones with loads of features they don't want or need. Bring back basic phones I say. Alfonzo from London.

  • Worse Nokia I ever had. Screen resolution makes you dizzy when using it for more time, the sound is louder on the back of the phone so everyone can listen your conversation, battery is not so great as told in specification and SAR is not 0.81 but 1.28. So...buy Samsung.

  • the earspeaker is the loudspeaker.so your arround hear your conversation.i have the same problem with my nokia 101.the only solution is put your finger in the loudspeaker and its ok ;)

  • the x1-01 is very good phone it's better than nokia 100 & 101 in battery life in music player a very very very good loudspeaker

  • I have bought my mom this one after her Nokia 2600 fell in water. She loves this one. What she does is sending/recieving messages and making phone calls, nothing else. Its flashlight is good and is a light phone. That was just yesterday when I bought it so I dont know if there is any complaint yet.

  • i have nokia 100 its very bad phone its loud speaker on automatically and any one can listen your conversation and now im planned to buy nokia x1-01 i hope it makes me satisfied

  • Can i bring this in hawaii and use a roaming number to call and send sms to philippine mobile numbers?

  • most of the time the loud speaker turn on automatically while making calls . Rest of the thing is ok.

  • Hi, just bought new Nokia 100 sim free, to replace my Nokia 1100 sim free 2003 year still in use and original battery, Now in my collection of old Nokias still used occasionally, This does the same as my 1100 did, makes phone calls and texts, and gets a signal when A smart phone will not, battery life very good (as 1100) if this lasts as old 1100 then its Worth the price which is £20, and it is quick to use no sunlight problems as touchscreens, And I have no problems with Nokias, also use N8 on Belle, great camara, And N9 Meego, which could have been the best on the market but let down by Nokia, A waste of brilliant system,

  • does this unit has a game "BOUNCE"

  • hahahaha i love this one, really. Simple and nothing more, just enough and lovely.

  • Its easy just a tiny bit of patience it takes to remove the back and deal with tthe battery and SIM. You turn the phone around back turn it upside down and your stroner hand is what u use in front and the other to support to press and push down to open. Make sure your hands are dried.

  • I dropped my nokia so bad that it came apart. it still worked.. I think you must be more than abusive to your phone. thats the 1800.. now i got this and its great! also it a £20 phone.. you wally - you get what you pay for!

  • No, sorry... A mobile phone only needs to have the same features as a land-line handset - this has it! ;) calls, sms, vibrate and a handy flashlight! this is for the person that would rather use a phone rather than a phonebox! phones with the net that are like this are pointless... internet phone are best kept for high end handsets that cost £100+ This Nokia is under £20.00

  • Thanks to Nokia for releasing this mobile . I plan to buy it for my secondary handphone because this mobile has some interesting features and its price is affordable for me. Anyway I'm really like this simple phone.

  • Really? Is this really being produced in 2012? In this year I would not buy a phone that doesn't offer me internet access. I mean phones' main purpose is communication. Right now people don't communicate only via voice calls or sms. They also need to write an e-mail or tweet something. These things have fast changed from "wishes" to "needs". I think Nokia is going down with this kind of marketing. They still offer bad phones poor people. Look at the android devices! They don't cost that much and they offer a lot. In stead, Nokia comes with Lumia which costs a lot, so I don't afford, but I have to stay chill. They prepared something for me too... The Nokia 100. Really? I think I'll still choose a cheap Android smartphone. ;)

  • i am planning to buy this phone today for calling messaging. plz tell me that how many messages ll saved in dis phn and nd for talking can we use its back speaker??? in nokia 100.. plz tel me... thankss

  • This mobile is really a good one. Even it can use only one sim card but its good for people who do not khow how to use smart phone. Thank you to Nokia for producing this hanset.

  • Folks, I have this phone and all I have to say is PLEASE DON'T BUY IT. It is build on the same platform as other entry level Nokia phones which suck. I owned Nokia 1800 and was a bit better, but not worth it. I used to play football in class with my colleges Nokia phone. Back then it was synonym with "reliability" and "simplicity". Not anymore. I drop my phone 0.5 meters on concrete and that's it. I have tried to remove the battery and place it back in, I have gave it time.. but nothing. I swear to myself that that this is the last Nokia product I brought. I broke my promise before, but I will NOT do it again. The only good Nokia experience was when I owned a 1100. Way back.. Regards, MJ P.S. I also lost my contacts as I had all of them on the phone. If contacts are accessed from the SIM, going through "Contacts" or searching is VERY slow.

  • for those who loves simplicity and dont want features like mp3 or others this mobile is awesome...poor people like me cant afford smartphones which is costly above 10000..

  • I disagree, there IS a market for cheap, basic phones. Nokia should NOT be ashamed because they make THE BEST basic simple phones. They stand the test of time.

  • This looks like a pretty good replacement for the Nokia 1616. Its good that Nokia still produce basic phones, there is a market for them despite what others say. Nokia product THE BEST basic phones and we sell a lot of them to the elderly, and I even own own one as an alternative phone. The 1616 was physically bad, this should be a lot better. I can't wait to get them in store :)

  • Just bought this item- it appears to be just what I require but unable to use it -why? because I cannot remove the back to insert the sim and battery. What kind of technicians designed a phone with a difficult to remove back I wonder?...Will not buy from Nokia again.

  • In this year 2012, this pc should not been existed. This is a masive drowback, the nokia company should be a samed, for producing this phone.

  • I just love the Nokia 100 for basic mobile use. Also have the N8, but for every day use the Nokia 100 is better because it's easy to bring and works very well. Basic simple things that works good I find beautifull too :-) Blessings, Olebolegikikkeiskole

  • Hi, i am AKSHAY KUMAR from Bangalore, India. I am a very big fan of NOKIA mobile phone brand...!!! I have buyed this phone yesterday (09/04/2012).Before buying i thought this cellphone will not be soo good like anyother recently stopped basic handset. But, now this phone made it wrong...this is very nice then phone then recently stopped 1616 or 5030...!!! All new and cool features,new look,etc etc etc...

  • I just bought this phone today and so far, so good. The signal is stronger than my last phone (Verykool i115) and i loved the fact that it comes with the same handsfree than the Nokia C6-01 i also have. I expected a cheap handsfree.

  • hello everyone I want to buy nokia 100 but i DOnt know buy or not because of many problems that read here buy or not?!

  • it{s a great phone i'll want it. el mascarito

  • how can i add ringtones to this mob ?

  • Nokia 101 and nokia 100 are automaticlly loud speakers. so nokia plz remove this.

  • Just downgraded myself from N8 to Nokia 100 couldn't be happier!

  • Battery life fully excellent , but automatically on Loud speaker

  • how can i add ringtones or wallpapers to this phone ??

  • Hey frnd how do i recrds the call..... as it has the function in it.......

  • how can i add ringtones in the empty tones place??

  • I think most comments here are experiencing the VOICE LEAKAGE (not auto loudspeaker) which my Nokia 100 also have the same problem. I guess out of 10 calls this occurs 2-3 times.

  • This is phone is cheating from Nokia because this has only a loud speaker and no speaker on earside ( front side ) while talking the sound came from back side loud speaker through a chanel so the sound like from a tunnel you can buy this if you are ready to be Fooled

  • batery power is so low ! almost like an anroied phon.. I charged it in the morning ! and at 9pm it became low batery..

  • Hi Yasin. I did a mistake by buying this phone and I have that auto loudspeaker problem, so my question is is it repairable, or I have to use it until I damage my ears.

  • Two Words - Why Bother!!

  • Nokia new series 1280, 101, 100, C1 etc all have 1 main problem "restart" while message chat.... Nokia 101, 100 have another problem of auto loudspeaker while receiving call....

  • PROs Cheap, lightweight, compact design CONs Voice leakage, slippery to hold, no "Favorites" on sending options, poor loudspeaker

  • hey what is battery backup of this phone

  • Dear Observer, yes of course Nokia 100 is a cheap phone but if I want to buy, I will buy Nokia 1280 instead. Even N. 1280 is old model but it is very solid, good sound quality and also good battery ect. .I hope that Nokia add more features to the new basic phone especially dual sim mobile phone. Please accept my appology if I said something wrong but it is the market nowaday.

  • This is cheap phone, not lixury. If you want perfect design ... look smartphones.

  • Phone is nice for my father. But for me I prefere Nokia 101.

  • I got this phone and I think its great. It does every thing you need on a phone. I don't need a browser because i have and iPod touch. Works fine for me.

  • awful design. Nokia designers have lost their sense of art

  • waste of money, the phone lags

  • I have this yesterday, gift from my brother. Nice radio, no beep alert tone when you open the radio again from menu compared to previous Nokia models(i.e. 1616). I just hope that the navi-key has backlight. I rate it 8-6-7

  • I've used it .. nice phone!

  • message storage capacity?

  • Yes It supports Multilingual and Depends on which region is going to distribute supports languages.I think something is wrong about this phone the voice is very loud like loud speaker, and when you are talking with sim1 sim2 would be out of reach. Its affording phone for people who don't want to spend money on mobile phones.

  • yes, speaking clock feature is available in this model. i bought it 10 days back. fit in all aspects.

  • Does it have speaking alarm clock same like Nokia 1650 I want to buy it for this feature if it available.

  • I think Nokia 101 supports multi-language, but i need to buy dual sim phone bec. i have one handphone already.

  • Does it support multi- language by texting ?

  • Iam using nokia 100 and most of the time it freezes. My opinion is that its not that good for daily use.

  • I still need to use this handset even its a low tech phone because its small, light , solid , easy to use and has torch. It is a good phone with its price range. My parents prefere to use it also. Thanks Nokia !

  • today... all mobile phone it's same. back to the picture. to know.. all cameras for take a picture, computers to serve internet and the lastly a basic phone for calling in out. that it's... ! just use a basic phone (that's order)

  • Does this model have the same problem as 1616, 1800 and 1280 with the voice leakage? Please answer me! Thanks

  • Voice leakege where is going nokia quality ?????????

  • i baught this handset yesterday hotspot so its nice phone and my mother use this phone so i like it............

  • Dear Nokia, pls release dual sim phone. Dual sim phone can use with one sim card but single sim phone cannot use 2 sim card. Now dual sim mobile phone is popular in asian country. :)

  • cheap look....sorry nokia

  • I bought this one @ last week for my Grandma , I think it is nice selection for her......

  • 500 entries. You have that many friends?

  • phone book storage low ,,/ sorry nokia !

  • nice... thanks to NOKIA.

  • Wonderful battery life and quality.I talked 8 hours with full battery.exactly 8 hours.Thanks nokia

  • battery life is low sorry nokia

  • This is simple and usefull handset with long battery life..

  • andres!!!! feeeeoooooo!!!!

  • This phone is not expensive but solid. My father likes it bec its easy to use (he said he doesn't no how to use 2 or 3 sim phone) especially it has good flashlight. Thank you Nokia for releasing this usefull hand phone .

  • nokia Should lounch Dual sim black n white mobile like 1280

  • I think it's the only available dualsim that I can get for the moment , well I ll try & see

  • I used china phone before. its price is not expensive & has many functions but only 6 months it gone away. Now i go for Nokia 100 instead. My all family members use Nokia phones too. I know about Nokia quality product. . so for this price range i think its good enough for me.

  • this is the good for phone who keeps baby.

  • I have seen a lot of complains about how ugly this phone is. I think if you prefer smartphones then go with it. I am planning to buy this phone for my parents who are over 65 years old that they only use for texting and phone call. I am actually looking for a user friendly phone that is LOW tech and looks like this one is plus it is cheap, i dont have to worry about phone snatching or stealing in a country where it is rampant.

  • I've used nokia phone for almost 5 years. I like both smart & low-tech phone but for the smart one i dont prefere small screen size (at least 2.2") bec. its easy to do web browsing. Thank you Nokia for your quality mobile phone.

  • Recently i brought this mobile. Battery life is poor. Is it the model problem or its only my mobile problem?

  • ilike nokia 100

  • I don't know why nokia stoped making phones with high specifications like 2323classic or 2660 its also with no camera no memory slot and long battry time S40 series. and they keep making these ugly phones like this one and 1800,1616

  • Just got one for £9.95. Wanted a phone for text and calls only. Didn't want a touch pad and a camera so this is just perfect for a basic phone. Easy to use and understand - can't fault it. Lots of comments on here say 'Why is Nokia making phones like this?'. Well, in my opinion, not everyone wants a phone with numerous applications. This is great for teenagers first phone as I disagree that kids should have internet access and camera/video options on a phone. Buy one - you won't regret it for this price!!

  • Thanks Nokia that u release this fone, now we have choices to choose many kind of Nokia fones. Actually we don't want to use one fone only, lots of people here use two or three fones inclusive of smart fone but sometime we have problem about power supply (Back up battery). We'll appreciate it very much if we can buy back up battery (made by Nokia).

  • Too bad and ugly model

  • how can`t you say it`s best handset

  • i bought one, and now i`m fully satisfied with the performance and battery life ! :-D

  • no this phone is not fake fake is fake is our mind so we have to washfirst our mine now a days peoplse mine is in chinese the options of rate of chinese u look in orignal nokia is imposible my friend soory its bietter but its truth

  • no nokia want to show that we can also bring lawhandset phones its not chinese

  • nokia releases this phone because it sell.. thats it.. many many people look for this because of all the reasons u dont like it.

  • i have bought nokia 100 but i dont like it because its feature is not so good.In my opinion this cell phone is fake and has many problems.

  • Can not get the good response from the market as it's price is 2120BDT,Bangladesh.Here most of the consumer are fond of Symphony,Maximus as they can get MP3,MP4,FM,VGA Camera on the price of 2120BDT. So if a consumer can get this feature from a Branded Chinese Set so why should he buy N100!

  • Dear Nokia, many people use one or two mobile phones at the moment. As the market price and quality are very competitive, can you add fews more features to the simple phone like this ? because Nokia 100 specs is almost the same like the previous one. We want to say that the new model should be better than the old model even it has almost the same price.. this is the up to date Market.

  • I really like this kind of phone, this is my type of phone. I'm very interested to buy one. How much?

  • evrybody has a cheap phones!even smartphone owners has cheap phone.. and this is the best functinal cheap phones.. thats why nokia bulid one..

  • I use nokia cell phones more then 15 years and I never had another phone just nokia, but i dont understand why they relise phones like this one??? everybody make big screan phones super smart and nokia make something like this... for me its a fail

  • Nokia 100 has good battery (talk time up to 7 hours)but it has the same features like the previous one. If i buy the new phone i need fews more applications.There are many kind of mobile phones in the market but if i talk about quality my first choice is nokia phone .

  • The Nokia 100 is just what you need in everyday life. He is slim, light and still affordable. With a battery life for up to 35 days to go against it. For this price you can obviously not expect all the modern specifications. Therefore, Nokia has become more focused on convenience. Whether it is to call or text, the Nokia 100 is designed for easy use. The buttons are large sitting far apart, so errors when writing out barely.

  • this kind of hp juz prefer to SMS user..maybe.

  • it looks like my old phone but it is ok if it's flashlight better than the previous one. by the way does it support our local language ?

  • ya defenatly nokia loses his image.to launch this kind of phones.i don\t like that kinds of phones.

  • Dude, when you hassle Nokia and pretend to know the full extent of the market, do yourself a favour and and get your grammar right, you sound sound like and idiot/are. PS the world may be moving towards smart phones but there will always be something called "Resistance" and so this phone well satisfies the market for people who want basic feature phone for low prices.

  • I dont know why nokia do not understands that what consumer demands, its just waste of time to manufacture this kinda phones,,,

  • nice phone..murah pun murah..sesiapa yang nak beli tunggu keluarannye akan datang...

  • nokia will definately lose his image in the market if he launch this quality of phone why it is making waste quality of phones?.

  • nice good mobile

  • not a good mobile because in a other company in this rang they launch a dual sim mobile & mp3 mobile nokia is not a good company

  • Is nokia 100 have sound leakage?

  • Nokia 101 has dual SIM

  • It should have dual sim

  • Nokia phones are solid. We prefere to use it but the new models (even cheap phones) should have more functions because of the market & technologies day by day are very competitive. BSM.

  • 8586880999

  • Wow..Good phone for me.

  • nokia should double check on its cheap phones voice leakage..its a biggest manufacturing problem of nokia.and i donot understand that y not they r fixing it..nokia you r killing your market..i give you a suggestion,change your designers..and some engineers..bec samsung is leading the market in cheap phones,and also in expensive phone by the softwaer ANDROID..

  • another phone to be suck up in market, then in a quiet few weeks it will be chop up in black market..- id rather steak to the older phone.. rather than buying some same old phone.. symbian belle rules wuahahaha

  • v.ugly

  • this is my dream phone!!! im saving for christmas

  • 100 watts is the flashlight . . im from egypt

  • like focus light near signals.

  • the ugliest design ever from nokia,nokia must have 2 learn from samsung coz only features are nt totally depending...

  • an upgrade of nokia 1280 it seems...? and dont criticize this phone yet..a cheap phone w a lot of functions! ill wait for this to come out.

  • how bright is the flashlight?

  • They recently the stylish,shiny, good looking X1.And now this?!! U G L Y

  • is ocean blue that one displayed or green?, where can u buy these now? Australia thanks. strange no 3G though r keys rubber?

  • looks cute & chic. perfect to be your kid's first phone or for you grandma. easy & simple to use. throw it whenever you like w/o being concerned whether the screen is gonna be broken blahblahblah

  • not good

  • Looks like 1280 in colors :)

  • Totally agree, voice leakage is terrible... I think Nokia also notice this voice leakage cause privacy problem of entry phone. Just check the picture of Nokia 101 (No battery cover picture of Nokia 100),I can found the hand free speaker voice outlet on battery cover is smaller than Nokia 1616. There must be some improvement of voice leakage. And I believe 3.5mm AV is a backup solution for this voice leakage...LOL...

  • there is a problem on keyboard..looks like old shitty chinese phones. but..we are in 2011, its a shame to release this phone with that keyboard designed by a blind man. if the cost is 5 euros is ok, if is much, i opted for a old SE phone. nokia is dead!

  • For my grandmother..super.

  • Yes, I wonder the same question... When I saw this Nokia 100 I asked myself if it suffers from the voice leakage of the previous low cost terminals.

  • 3,5mm jack without mp3? -.-

  • I only hope it does not have that voice leakage problem. i.e. loudspeaker in the back is also used for calls, thus broadcasting all your personal calls to the people around you.

  • hope voice leakage is not a problem on this one...

  • WOW nokia rocks..awesome

  • its a basic phone.... >its a single sim >its no memory card >no camera > only fm radio...

  • does this phone has NFC?

  • GPRS is not available in dis ph???????

  • This Phone is very Basic, Best for Calling and Text's, The Battery life not fast drain out. =D

  • It's an upgraded basic phone
