  • That used to be my dad's phone back in like 11 years. Now he is using a Nokia Lumia 1320.

  • Oh come on, I've seen Sony Ericsson K550's that are still working to this day. You must have been very rough with your phone for it to stop working that early... ;)

  • Good.model

  • I have one. It works perfectly. Got a new battery for it once.Some key symbols are getting worn though.

  • I Want more of 1200 nokia phones am in uganda.

  • i want nokia 1200

  • It is superbe i love it thé n'est phone i have possessed

  • dropped more than 50 times, even ended up once in my fish tank while ON. Still working fine after 10 years.

  • Million times I dropped it. No single time got it broken. I could even nail sth in a wall using it as a hammer and despite it'd still go functional. I love it. :)

  • I have one. that's great even better than my XZ

  • Nokia 1200 is like a smartphone

  • Amazing phone ever! This is my first phone and I use it for more than 5 years. I like this phone than Iphone 7. :)

  • unlock 1200

  • I buy it seven years later, and I'm still using Nokia 1200 excellent handset long lasting

  • its my first handset very smart

  • My First Mobilr phone i buy my self on 11-11-2007.

  • Pls show rm

  • my first mobile used nokia 1200 is a good set,,, long lasting set....................

  • it works for 15 years but it works good it never stops.it becames my dear friend with it no much money to loose thank u nokia

  • it works for 7 years but it works good it never stops.it becames my dear friend with it no much money to loose thank u nokia

  • its very good handset,,,,i am using uptill now,,,,,from last 7 years,,,,,,

  • my first phone... after 8 year and still working until now... never disapointed me

  • Got a new battery about two years ago. It keeps going strong. No need to be replaced.

  • Had it for 7 years, still working, though the battery is not as strong as it was 7 years ago. Got another Nokia Lumia 620, about 24x cost of 1200, and within 18 months, has been repaired 3 times. Miss those good old days of Quality Nokia products.

  • Best Phone ever ... its been 7 years now .. still in best condition .. got it as birthday gift in 2008 .. still works perfectly .. even after falling from heights several times ... My best mate eva xD

  • Me too.... Handelling over the six year....nowly in best position

  • I am still using it.........and it's condition is superbb.

  • It s 7 years now I m using this. It s still in a very good condition.

  • My cell Nokia 1200 hangs out after every 5 mints. Becomes active after re-entering the battery. What should i do?

  • Yeah, it has composer as 3310. I made my own ringtone with rapid high notes so i could hear it in loud environment. Every godamn feature of this phone is bloody remarkable. (Other brands probably paid one million bucks for each rating decimal to be lowered, because 150 million people voted it 10)

  • Using it since august 2007. (7+ years). And it is still running. Few years back changed battery, because it started to hold on only few days insted of 25+ days (With new battery). Fallen several times, only cosmetic sctratches. Today it showed Insert SIM Error so I quicly purchased Samsung E1200 for 13 euro. Later cleaned sim card and slot and it still works, I guess dust got inside. I like Nokia better than samsung, because it starts up in 1 second , you push PIN and after 2 more seconds you can dial on keypad and call. I know numbers by heart. Also This nokia has one colour display (Samsung has color) which is better to see on low res display and in bright sunlight. + It has flashlight. It is not as indestructable as 3310 (my first phone, which i stopped using because chinese stopped manufacturing batteries, but it still works), but taking in accout the more functional operating system, extended battery life, the flashlight and low price (starting 25$ new), I would say that this is the best phone NOKIA has manufactured so far.

  • Yes it is true

  • totally agree!

  • it is better than apple 6

  • supeerbbb ...... it can easily beat samsung s5 :D . in the cricket field :D :D :D

  • very nice

  • Nokia 1200

  • This phone is very good phone. basic series phone i like that .

  • Awesome mobile

  • this phone is a great back up phone...

  • super

  • how many pieces do you want

  • Where can I by this phone?

  • My all time favourite phone. Just amazing!

  • i use to put this phone's flashlight 'ON' for hours even on last bar of battery level.. It is very useful when electricity suddenly goes off in evening/night times and you have to do lots of things like cooking, dinner etc.. just take care that phone should not fall from hand otherwise ear piece speaker would start giving you distorted voice, but unfortunately if it happens, then you can change ear piece speaker also. It is easily available in mobile accesories shops in just 30-40 Rs.

  • good phone, change it because the battery died, but I use since 2009 until 2 days

  • Nokia sold 150 million units of this phone. Nice to see people still using it. :-)

  • this phone was owsame i like that

  • i have this phone its really bad i want a smartphone. but my father didn't give me good phone

  • I have had this phone for almost two years now and it was a gift to use in Indonesia during a job there. I love it. It is unlocked and I have used it in Europe, South America and the Caribbean in many countries and it never disappoints. The sound is very clear and it holds a charge sometimes for months in my backpack. I was using another phone and had forgotten about it for like 6 months and landed in Venezuela where the charges for my normal phone were atrocious. I found it in the backpack and bought a sims card and it still had nearly a full charge. Incredible. Now I have cards for like six countries for it. It is small and light and you'll almost forget about it in your pocket. I just smashed the screen two days ago on a work site and am trying to find a screen for it before I return to the U.S. so I can get it repaired before my next trip. I love it more than my other phones.

  • very strong phone. i have on its been a few years i am using it. it is still going strong. i recommend this phone to people who only want to make a call or get a call or get a text message or send one. further more the flashlight works great, the games are good, sometimes addictive. but yea. you won't regret buying one.. good luck users. i personaly use the blackberry curve 8520 wich suks..

  • supper phone i love my phone NOKIY 1200

  • suggetion to Nokia- hey nokia, you can once again grab market by making basic monochrome display phones which would have dimensions nearly 90 x 45 x 13mm (no matter if display becomes more small) yeah, ppl would love calculator size basic phone which fits into their shirts pocket easily, so grab the chance..

  • this phone like the thing in fantastic four..can throw anywhere but still in good working

  • Due to its long battery life feature, I use this phone as my home phone n inserted my permanant number in it.. Yeah just like in old days we have landline phones.. It fully serves its purpose, gives 3 days battery backup...

  • Yeah. Nokia 1200 is so nice.

  • I have one, how much do you want to pay for it?

  • please how do i buy this phone in quantity,and how will it reach to me?

  • Actualy these type of (having monochrome display) phone have long battery life.. But for getting more/ maximum battery life you can turn off Backlights.. Go to settings-display settings-backlight time-off this method really gives more battery life...

  • Just flash ur phone's firmware in nearest nokia care or local mobile repairing shop

  • I have just sold my Blackberry Torch and downgraded to this Nokia 1200 - I like this phone because it doesn't required charging almost everyday; and it's basically a device that phones and texts with a few other regular features. It isn't a phone that I need to guard with my life or keep checking the latest social posts as it doesn't have internet or email on it. Back to basics.

  • Hi, is your sim card working? Does phone turns on with sim? (it wouldn't be wise thing to post your IMEI in web sites...think about that)

  • hi nokia my nokia model 1200,code 0556729,IMEI 356790/02/521089/5 it can not send sms and what must ido inorder for it to strat sending sms. kind regards nguripo

  • I freaking *love* this phone. It does exactly what it does, which is making/receiving phone calls, and sending/receiving SMS. Of course, it also has some basic extras like an alarm clock, calendar, calculator, etc. And that is it. Reception is flawless, the loudspeaker is flawless. This phone is indestructible. I've dropped it a million times, gotten it wet (not submerged) a million times and it doesn't miss a beat. The only drawback is that the rubber keypad thing bulges out and the letters fade out after a while. I've had it for a good 3 years, and I recently had to take the battery out and bend the wires connecting to the battery a little forwards so that they would connect to the battery properly. After 3 years, that's the only thing that has gone wrong with this phone. But after I did this, it works 100% again. Also, one line on the screen has broken (doesn't work), so there's a blank line across the screen near the bottom, and there's a little piece of black stuff stuck between the screen and the screen cover. But these things just adds to the charm if anything and the phone still works 100% and is 100% usable. Conclusion: if you need a good BASIC reliable phone, then this phone is AWESOME.

  • Nokia 1200 is great. Smooth keypad, bright flashlight, rock-solid battery, 3 cool games (Snake, Cricket, Carrom), nice shape, good hand grip, fast loading, good availability of accessories...etc.

  • i had this phone b4 and i love it so much even if it hangs sometimes when i send an sms, but it's okey.. sad thing was, it has been stolen.. There's no brand-new unit available in our area anymore.. i just bought 1280 yesterday which has a radio receiver. same feature as 1200 and other 12++ but i am disappointed with it, because it has no earpiece.. loudspeaker is being used by 1280 and 1202..

  • I need this product

  • battery chareging problem

  • what a phone, exellent for its price. dont know why nokia stop production of this & started 1202.

  • Been using it daily for 9 Months, perfect handling etc, only downside: Organizer can only store 10 entries??

  • it is like the best phone i ever had. It is very simple to use and the flashlight is also handy. i must say that it's the best phone in all nokia series

  • I am using N 1200 for six month and thinh that cell phone has all necessary things that someone needs. I especially like its celender and flash light and I know I repeated my lectures in flash light in days of load shedind.

  • using this phone for 2 years and its a good phone. Sometimes it hangs but its a good phone.

  • its cheap but easy to use

  • I was between devil and deep sea, as to which cell phone to purchase ? Until I experienced Nokia 1200, I was not aware of the peace of mind which I have right now with me only to the extent of a cell phone. The battery lasts for a week without charging this is the best feature pertinent to this phone. The only thing is the price it quite expensive in Pakistan as compare to the prices pervailing in India.

  • too good

  • i bought a 1202 about a month ago and then saw my friend have a 1200... the 1200 was so much better that i actually traded my 1202 for her 1200. the design is so much better and the yellow backlight rocks. the 1202 is also a pretty cool basic phone but if you could get your hands on a 1200 i definitely suggest going for it. it will be worth the investment. and mind you, it wont be expensive at all.

  • this is the best phone for its price and it is very durable for its price i wudnt trade it for nutin

  • Have been using this for almost 18 months. Excellent phone. Amazing talk time of close to 5-6 hrs. Only problem is the keypad fades.

  • AND also, no problem with the keyboard either. After 2 years like new.

  • I have this phone for 2 years now and I am fully happy with it. The battery lasts for a week without charging. Easy and fast use. Hardcore, survived many falls. Even my parents have one and they compliment on its display - big contrast, clearly visible. No unnecessary functions.

  • this is the best phone nokia ever made this phone could fall 10 times an it has no problem them other phones once it fall once it mash up like mash potato.

  • this is a good phone for hard use.& also it's cheaper one.

  • I've been using this for more than a year as a second phone (I also have a 5800). And it had good battery life as any other Nokia low-end models. Also the 1200 models that are available in Indian region, have local language Unicode support including Tamil,Sinhalese, Telugu,Hindi,etc. You won't get these in any S60 phone... :)

  • This phone is far too advanced for the average consumer. This phone encapsualtes the essence of modern technological advancement. I believe it will be used in the next James Bond film, are you aware that this phone has a dual transformer feature, press one button and it will transform into a Ferrari, press the other and it will change into a giant mech robot if one is in a war zone.

  • I had my Nokia 1200 beofore with built-in "Nostalgia" ringtone, but the new version 1200 doesn't have. Anyone knows how to get it back ?

  • I'am like a hanphone nokia series 1200..because,body hanphone minimalis,, and too beautiful..good nokia series 1200..

  • i like this phone, coz it was given to me by my bestfriend...

  • The nokia 1200 is a great ph0ne, but. I think 1202 is better, with its monochrome display, it looks like a decent colored phone

  • i think this phone is better than my n96,however.....................................­................................................­......................

  • can spmebody please tell me whether it is still in the market or not

  • The Nokia1200 is a great phone, The feel is good,average light weight for its class,keypad is very good,fast interface,flashlight is perfect,extremely durable in every aspect,battery time is good,ring tone volume is average,vibration is good. Features : 9/10 = for its price Performance : 10/10 Keypad : 9/10 = Great for messaging freaks Construction: 9/10 = for its price ohh yes,if any of you are confused between the Nokia1200 & Nokia1202/3 Nokia 1200 is the right phone for you without a doubt,Why? The Nokia1202/3 are good phones as well,but they have one major problem,the the speaker at the back of the phone allows nearby company in your conversation. & Off course you need your privacy.

  • Solid basic phone for the price: great reception, call quality, battery life, user interface. However, the durability of the keypad is this phone's downfall. The numbers & symbols wear off completely. After 1 year of use, the right & half of the middle keypad columns are completely unreadable. The very limited number of reminders stored on the phone's memory is also a shame.

  • better than 1208. V5.51 is the more stable version of this phone. didn't have problems with the keypad, it's actually soft and easy to use. i had mine for a year now and the keypad still isn't bloated.

  • great!

  • come on shama...isn't it great that it gets heated in 15 minutes? of course,you might face discomfort in summers,but how wonderful it would be to have a heated phone next to your frozen ears on a chilly winter night...

  • I have went through many cell phones due to carelessness. However, for a low-end mobile this phone is extremely impressive. Can take the wear and tear, reliable, affordable and user friendly. I highly recommend anyone to use this phone. By the way this is my second purchase of the same phone and would purchase it again.

  • The keypad does bloat after some time

  • yeah...the keypad bloats after some time.

  • bad phone............ as it gives off lots of heat............ u cant keep it on your ear for more than 15 min

  • keypad also will bloat after sometime bec its rubber

  • bad keypad. all letters/numbers faded not visible anymore

  • i bought this last january 2009. the best phone i can say. i had lots of phone through the years including 6600,7610,N70 music edition and now i had N5310,i bought this for spare phones but i was amaze by it's performance

  • It's an amazing low-end phone, which battery lasts for a week and is virtually unbreakable. I should recommend it for everyone looking for a phone, costing >20 dollars.

  • i stock my 1200 nokia phone about 3 months i never open it. And when i open there is no signal at all. what im going to do?

  • simply the best in lowend collections.

  • goooooooooooooooooooooooood phone i have dropped many times but the phone works without any problem ......awesome phone

  • This is a excellent little phone, its basic but it does everything you would expect of a phone - the sound clarity on the phone is very good and the battery life is superb. It's definately a very reliable phone and the flashlight is also very handy.

  • Its a great phone..... and its best for genral use...

  • perfect battery lasts for 6 days

  • Von is not bad especially if you dont have an alternative. Its the best quality von at its price!

  • Best phone I have ever had after Nokia 1100. Very competitive price for its quality. Torch is very handy especially here in Africa where there is no electricity and the kerosene lamp runs out of fuel at night.

  • . i must say this is perfact for children easy to work there way around . my son is nearley nine i looked at the phone and bought 1 for him ..so for a 1st time phone perfact for the kids .

  • *Very Bad Keypad (Rubber Keypad will expand in the long run). *Bad signal Reception. *Limited reminders store. *Speaker audibility is low when monotones are being played. RATING - 4/10

  • Battery is very poor.It does not last even 1 day.

  • this mobile is very very very bad

  • I have an experience with two different Nokia 1200!!! one is the all-rocking version- everything u need in a basic phone, the other must be a counterfeit, It does a "re-boot" in the middle of a call. Watch out while buying!!!

  • ho ahead dude!! this phone worths each cent u pay 4 it!!

  • hi,.... i want to buy nokia 1200. any one can give me comment agree or diagree?

  • i really love this phone; i got one 3 day ago and it rocks.. it's much more beautiful than it looks in the pictures, suitable, light weight, comfort. keypad, amazing sound, amazing specification to it's low price, probably one of the last black and white phones.. it's really amazing

  • This phone is absolutely worth its price & more. The features it has is just right. It is very sturdy as I have dropped it on hard surfaces many times & even once while riding my bike fast. The torch is very helpful as I live in Bangalore.

  • intersting why dont you drop phone from cliff and run a truck over it

  • The set is very good for regular usage... It is more reliable and durable set...........................

  • you can stuy with its torchlight if you have power cut.. very good for students

  • THE most dependable and durable cell phone i've had. it was accidentally washed in a washing machine along with my pant.. but suprisingly enough after dry out time it worked perfectly... plus i must have dropped it hard like a dozen times, still works without a hitch :D..

  • Not a bad buy at 25USD.Does the basic job pretty well and battery is decent i've talked continously for 7.5 hours.

  • VAlue for money ... and does what it is supposed to do, and it is beautiful..

  • Good and safe to use like 3310

  • the coolest 4n ever, texting has never been so easy before but with this 4n its much easier.it also have swahili dictionary which i found very useful.i ta has one problem though, the key pads swells after some time.

  • Message sending failure in particular mobile.check my sim in other same model able to send message.how can i troubleshoot this problem in my mobile.

  • you wont be able to use the 1200 since you should have a triband handset.1200 is just dual band.

  • my fave low end phone :)

  • the best of the best basic phone, nice dust proof keypads, has calendar, timer, reminder, alarm, games, you can even schedule txt mssges to be sent on a specific date and time, you can even screen your mssges, message will not show on inbox but it will appear on the screened mssges, its just like hiding your mssge. flash light also very useful, very small and slim design easy to carry, does not hang,battery is awesome!!!! it last for 3 days!!! best basic phone ever!!!!

  • this phone is good.actually we can use this phone in any way....

  • yeah! your all correct, its the very latest model at this age..!!hahahahaha

  • that phone style and price was suitable but phone book is really suck its can't work properly cause i save some number but i can't find next time so i loss some important number.

  • This is the best phone ever made .I use this phone for rough use.The battery backup is awsome and phone also recieves good signal.Small,Truly mobile n a very touch phone....Brai/

  • It is a nice phone especially the flashlight for use when the kerosene lamp dies. Best bet in the African rural areas where there is no electricity due to long half life. You can even receive calls when the battery is almost dead. And it is a good quality von at an affordable price.

  • how i can set the timer of 1 minute for the calls?

  • what is the use of multiphone book in nokia 1200

  • Ya, i got sms unsent problem. But i know when it will happen. It normally happens after 1. Inbox is full. 2. Fully charge the battery. For both case, just remember to restart it. Everything will becom normal :)

  • I have been using this phone for about two years now and I love it, I love it , I love it.and now I just bought the 6210 navigator but I'm still using my 1200 even thou the dialing pad keeps going off I love it anyway and no navigator can separate me from my nokia 1200

  • i am using this phone last 4 days, it is very good and reliable for long talk and using text in messaging.

  • I received this one yesterday as a gift. This phone can attain signals even at an almost dead zone. This is best for call and texting. Very light and durable. A standard yet cool phone. 'nuff said.

  • i am using this phone for talking and call purposes.. this phone is good for calling and texting purpose.. the battery is incredible and could last for 5 days... its good for sun users because it can get signal better than any high end phones..

  • Great Battery Life,Durable and very reliable

  • Nokia 1200 main march main purchase karunga aur umeed hai k acha set ho

  • I just bought it yesterday. It's very cheap, I just got this for 1,300 pesos with 1 year warranty. If your just fond of texting and making calls, this phone is just right for you. Anyway I have my N70 for exploring multimedia. Great battery. Nice phone but the tones are kinda low, just set the volume to the highest.

  • the sevcurity code is 0000 and phone is 12345

  • does any one know how to take this "car like" looking icon on my phone? when it's there i can't hear a word persons are sayin' on the fone

  • What is the security code of this unit??

  • good phone , but u cant treat it good if u know what i mean he he >>> very cheap . but call quality is good , the phone sound is low (ring tone) , the worst thing is the keypad , but the battery is really great i got 9 days with only one charge !!! .

  • this is a wonderful phone...payed 10euro without any contract...use it as a second phone (first is a 6120classic)

  • no,nokia 1200 is not colored,the colored one is the 1208.

  • Great phone for making and receiving calls.If you want extra`s,then go for a more expensive phone also in the Nokia range.

  • IS the nokia 1200 colored?

  • what the heck! So cheap!!

  • great phone, great battery but worst keypads! the keypads bloat like balloon eventually.

  • It is very good working and useful set.

  • hi,its verey nice and very TOUGH

  • i really love this phone. i had 2 phones of this kind and they really last long especially the batteries.you too should have this one,you'll like it.

  • Hello this is a nice phone, for whose people who make and receive call. I really like it......

  • its very nice . in low range its very good.

  • its good but need to be better .make some changes

  • How do i add mp3 ring tones when the fon dosn't have any usb storage.On tones its written 32 polyphonic ringtones & mp3 grade, what does that mean?

  • great phone ideal for people who just want a phone to make and receive calls and sms. battery life is great. simple and effective design.

  • I got this phone a while back but brought it back to the shop and asked for a refund which i got. The ring tones and text alerts are barely audible even when you put them at the highest volume settings. Polyphonic and mp3 ring tones are awful and Nokia should have retained the monophonic ring tones and text alerts. Another problem with this phone is Nokia have decided to discard the small font option from basic phones which was a really bad decision by Nokia. The keypad also on this phone is pretty awful. I've now gone back to using the great Nokia 1101. Monochrome mobile phones rule as far as i'm concerned because you can view the screen even in the brightest sunlight plus unlike coloured screen mobiles you don't have to keep endlessly having to recharge the battery.

  • great phone

  • Ive been having the same problem of not being able to send texts.Is there any other way besides rebooting?

  • it is a standard phone

  • This is a very annoying problem. I could not send sms to any one for three days.I just saw the post and rebooted, it worked fine man!!. So make sure to use the forums for your problems. Some users have same type of problems.

  • N1200 is a tough phone.. PROS: 1. Excellent battery life 2. lightweight 3. easy to use.. CONS: 1. The power button's location is not good because sometimes if you press it a little too long when ending a call it shuts off like crazy 2. Rubber keypads raises(it forms a curve)it annoys me..

  • i purchased one along with a netbook. they're handy. N1200? no problem with the torch. great for practical people. audio is good in making phone calls and no problem in reading received sms. i still have my expensive one, but i would rather use nokia 1200 all the time. you can still receive and make calls or sms from expensive phones. which are basic reasons on why to have a mobile phone.

  • its not very good phone but it has resonable price in pakistan,and it has hanging problem too typing text is very easy on it.

  • It is really bad for SMS - if you need/want to use Latin and any other fonts simultenously in SMS message - because you can't switch from one font to another.

  • why there is no signal if i use this unit?im using smart sim roaming?

  • Great low end handset. If you only want to talk and text, this the phone for you.

  • nokia 1200 very good strong phone from nokia. i had this phone 4 about 7months now no problems. nokia u are the best. dropped more than 50 times battery life 100%. ilove my phone nomatter what. expensive phones 4get im aint buying.

  • Stupid

  • well i have this phone about 2 months and i found this problems on it: sometimes i have some problems with sending sms ,every time i try deleting all messages and restart the phone and after that it will be done. keyboard material doesn't have good quality. for me after using this phone for 2 months still i'm not comfortable with its menu, ofcourse its like other basic phones menu. ringtone's sound is not too loud sometimes i have some problem in noisy places and unfortuantly its vibrate is not as powerfull as nokia1100. batterylife is so good( my battery cell is BL-5CA 700mA)and i heared it could be better by using 1200mA. the sounds of calls is clear but its loud speaker is terrible and about the handsfree the original nokia enhancement was so expensive for me and i couldnt find other brands for this model so i tried other models on it and i was so lucky that i found a good cheap one :-) and after all its a good phone (not excellent) but it worth with this price and this brand (in IRAN i bought this phone about 30 US $). forgive me for my bad english language, good luck

  • no it doesn't have it koya !!!!

  • buy 1200 mAh batterie instead of standart (700 mAh)... you'll be satisfied!

  • +1 to you nice comment :) A good phone when working dirty jobs...

  • i'm from the philippines where it's scary to go out riding on a passenger utility vehicle (i.e. buses, trains, etc.) and carry a high-end phone because a thief might fall in love with it. and with gasoline prices soaring high these days, i'd rather use the bus or train than use the car and get stuck in traffic and waste gas. i opted to buy this instead of lugging around my n95 with me when i go to work because of less collateral damage (and less pain from the chest!) if in case i run across a thief. i just use my n95 when i go out in other days with my car...

  • i bought this phone thinking that it will have a good battery but im not satisfied it only works for one and half day...

  • how does the voicemail work?

  • I also faced the same problem ,just go to messages then select delete messages and delete all the messages in the inbox,outbox nd sent items, immediately you can start sending SMS

  • Will this phone work in the UK?

  • Just bought the Nokia 1200 cell phone... What benefits does a 3g sim card have?

  • sometimes i had problems sending text messages too. i just restart the phone and send the message again. then everything went well. for those who face the same problem, try restarting (switch off and on again, no fancy codes or anything) the phone.

  • This is the best phone ever to hit the market from Nokia, much better the much touted N-series phones hands down, this phone is only for the esoteric customers

  • PLZ CAN ANY body tell me that is there any option 4 sms delivery?and how much msg capacity in nokia 1200? plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz reply soon..

  • The best. Even Eleganter than N96.

  • I keep having problems with this phone.It seems the network is a problem.What can i do?

  • Are nokia's made in India any good? Which manufacturing country makes the best quality of nokia's?

  • It goes straight to your screened message list because you might have put your friend's name in the screened list. Go the menu, find messages, then the screened list. Most likely your friend's name is in there. Change it. An alternate is go directly to the screened message list, press options, change the settings making sure that no one is in your screened name list. This is a very easy to use, no fuss phone. No reason to have problems with this one.

  • I disagree with you. Interface is fast and simple to use. Better than any mobile of other brand in same price-limit.

  • overpriced for what you get. it's very limited in all aspects of use. changes to features are never changed. always coming back to same factory sequence. wasted the $30.

  • I have three N1200. everything is ok except the keypad. I wish it has better quality keypad. after a few weeks i feel like pressing a balloon:)

  • can't send messages? delete some text messages in your inbox/sent folders. then, reboot your cp and try sending the message again.

  • Four month ago, i always check on this forum about 1200. Some say that: 1. Some say that we cant edit contact name. 2. Some say that he cant find any earphone for this phone. 3. Some say that this phone restart a lot. 4. Some say that keypad of this phone really bad i didnt listent and bought this phone. And.... What they said was tottaly true at first (expect restart problem). 1. I cant change/edit contact name, if i want to edit a contact, i was select a contact and press option, and there is no option for edit name.. But i finally find out something is missing, if u want to edit a contact, select a contact first then press down before press option, and there u go 2. I really cant find any headset for this phone except nokia original headset (which is very expensive for me), but my sister borrow my phone at the 6ther day and grab my headset of my ZTE phone too(china phone), and it really suprise me that ZTE headset compatible for 1200, and again i find out that samsung headset compatible too. Then finally i can buy samsung cheap headset (non original) for my 1200. 3. Never find restarting prob 4. Keypad was bad at first, but i can text well after a while.

  • Nice....looking too simple...

  • The latest version of this phone still has the software bug regarding the Sent Items where some messages remain in "pending" status even when they were in fact already sent. Once your Sent Items folder becomes filled with these "pending" items, you have no choice but to MANUALLY delete them one by one or you wouldn't be able to send any more text messages--a bug which has been around for over a year since firmware version 5.00 of the Nokia 1600 and was ported to the newer 1xxx series including this model. In spite of all the customer complaints, Nokia never fixed it.

  • To elsy, Just put off your phone battery and then insert it now switch on your phone and your keypad is unlocked.

  • Go for Nokia 1200. It has a Torch which is quite usefull. Secondly it has a Calender. These two usefull functions are missing in Nokia 1112. As far as your questions are concerned Nokia 1200 is having those type of Loud Mp3 type ringtones like you have mentioned. Speaking Clock is I think absent in Nokia 1200. I was having Nokia 1200 but just sold it because I want a coloured set having Radio,Flash light and more SMS inbox capacity therefore I bought Nokia 1650 but Nokia 1200 was also a good reliable set.

  • Come on guys, what tipe of freak phone is this? The best ever!!! GO! Nokia!

  • I has a calendar. Press the left navigation key and it comes up. You can also program the right selection key to show anything else in the phone.

  • its nice phone and user friendly.. can this handle a dual SIM card? i believe it wont fit on this casing.. any recommendation?

  • I am thinking of buying the nokia 1112 or 1200. I am not sure which one to buy. Does the 1200 have polyphonic ringtones like the song that says (Do you hear me when I call, I am waiting...)? Does the 1200 have the speaking clock? I know 1112 has both features.

  • Can anyone tell me how to unlock the keypad if the code has been lost - other than continually pressing 'unlock' + ** every time I want to make a phone call? Please Help? Elsy

  • Really comfortable,reliable and easy for use...got it as a temporary phone,but now i started thinking if i really need smthg else ;)

  • i am very pleased with this phone, i have no problems with the restarting issue. it's a refreshing SIMPLE phone, in a multimedia era.

  • I don't think you can down load any ringtones for this phone? If your phone keeps on turning off for no reason, then I think you have a faulty phone, maybe? But this is a good cheap $ phone.

  • Hello, everyone, I just needed to know how can i get or download new ringtones for mi Nokia 1200, thank you

  • This fone sucks! it restarts always. The problem is, Once your sent items is full, you cannot send texts messages. to be able to send text message again, you have to empty your sent items and then restart the phone. You may check nokia site for this bug. It's the bug of this phone!!!!!

  • Practical, user friendly, and definitely easy on your wallet.

  • I got this phone last April 2008, and I must say it's good. The only problem I encountered with this phone is that it restarts itself. Has this happened to yours...?

  • good phone for beginners

  • I`ve just bouth it, 2 days ago, after i lost my 6070. I`m suprised how much it can offer for such a low price, i think that enyone with limited budget should consider this phone or 1112 * but 1112 has no calendar. The thing is that it is more usable then phones with slighter higher price, with colour displays, in terms of battery life and speed of the device. That`s, offcourse, my subjective opinion. sorry if i have made any iritating linguistic error

  • And its only $37.00/Php 1,500.00 in the Philippines. had a usefull flashlight to.. :D

  • Its a backup phone that will be very usefull. standby time lasts almost a week with moderate texting and call.. This fone is best for text users.. better than my 6500 slide. Cheers!

  • A BIG HELP NOBODY MENTIONED. this is the cheapest fone in the wolrd that you can use with your 3g sim card. for users in uk, please buy this phone as a gsm phone, then simply put your 3G sim card in the phone and it works. Most people dont know this. its the cheapest phone in town that works with all simcards including 3g sims. bought it for 12.99pounds gsm with no need to but additional top ups. bought it from tk maxx store.

  • @ Dione Cassar Here is a helpful user guide for this phone Red Button = Power Turn on or off. Green Button = To make a call. 1 - 9 Buttons = Is for dailing what ever number you need to call. This phone doesn't have MP3 or bluetooth or camera. So the user guide for this phones is pretty short. Get it while its on special for only $75.

  • Gud phone including some latest functions like call limit we can set the limit when the call has to be end... Also we can send msg at any time by setting it early lots more

  • my current phone is the Nokia 6300, i love it by the way... i recently bought a Nokia 1200 as a back up fone, a good value for money, battery life is superb, good for seemingly endless calls, anyway this would be the 3rd day as its owner and believe me its still in factory charge, i'm still waiting for the initial charge... they're selling it cheap for P1,500 or a buy 1 take 1 promo for P2990, well... the figure won't tell you its a good deal just a P5 savings *some marketing strategy crap*

  • nokia 1200 is the low budget phone with simple function. it really worth just for $30 in Indonesia. thanks nokia.

  • I bought this fone yesterday because my N70 failed to load and basically it is a load of xxxit! anyway... The 1200 serves me well and I like the fact that it is a simple fone with simple yet usable features. However, it should have been equipped with ample memory for phonebook and SMS keeping...

  • hi how i can updated my software plz help me.

  • Wats de use of multiple fone books? u can only save 200*3 numbers anyway?? if fone book is increased to 500*3 no's then this kind of fone will rock!!

  • The keypad is not fine. The buttons are too close together and the keypad is uncomfortable. The best keypads ever are on the nokia 3410 and the nokia 3510i. Ringtones not loud enough either. On the nokia 3410 you will hear the phone ring outdoors and incoming message alerts can also be easily heard due to monophonic tones. It also has ring-ring ringtone and the other ringtones on 3410 are excellent. Nokia basic phones are very poor now.

  • I like this phone, but I don't like the keypads. They are small, hard, and complicated

  • The keypad of 1200 is fine. I don't understand why people complain about that. its really easy to press. the only one thing should be more good and that is the back light on keypad.

  • Did someone complain about the keys on the keypad of the Nokia 1100? Why did you all have it different on the Nokia 1200? It was good. Why change something, when it is good?

  • Hi guys today I bought Nokia 1200 for backup. It’s a low end phone but found very useful. There is an option called "Net monitor" in menu. Sometimes it appear and sometime just vanish, If I go through this, its asked for some digit and title bar show "test" but after press some digit and ok nothing happened. I can’t understand what that is. Anybody has any idea? I already press 101, 000 like some digit, has it activated any hidden option? If it is then do I have to press other digit for deactivate? What is that? Thanks.

  • Why the company didn't leave the keys as the Nokia 1100.

  • Nokia 1200 is very good and useful but When you want copy your contacts from sim card to phone memory, we have two chose, 1- copy to phone memory and keep original 2- copy to phone memory and delete... The problem is you can't copy your contacts to ph memory without delete from sim card, otherwise, after copy we have two items from each phone number in contact list.

  • i love this phone...ive been using it for 3 days now and its good...its very easy to use, very friendly and manageable...for me, i think its a best non-colored phone so far...what i like most is the physical appearance its trendy, somewhat stylish and very modern for everyday use for text and call...and best off all its cheap but very good and light on ur pocket!

  • argh how do i download ring tones ?

  • Good phone for calling (clear sound) and SMS. Flash light comes handy in emergency but no other good features. Key pad is low class.

  • I had an Sony Ericsson W810 for 1.5 years. Instead that I bought this baby 1 weeks ago for using since Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 release. It's a "Made in India" Nokia! Think it's incredibly user friendly which makes this design popular for those users who want a phone to be a phone & not a highly technical communication device. It's really nice phone. High performance, low price, light weight, lovely design and etc. Please be just! Of sure it's not comparable with feature packs like N73 or W810!! Remember it's class and price!

  • its the great phone ever released by nokia in price and performance.&its light is so bright.

  • It is the worst phone nokia has ever released.

  • It is very good xxx

  • I have purchased nokia 1200 from Ahuja Telecom at NIL-75 A, Shop No.1 (Corner), Behind I.T.I., Malviya Nagar, New Delhi-110017, Set Details are Nokia 1200 (Black), IMEI No.35698201474482, CE0434 TYPE-RH-99, CODE NO.0546370 and the software of set were corrupt from the date of purchase. And I have submit the set to Nokia Care at E-1/6, Malviya Nagar, New Delhi-110017 and they given me the set as it is after 2hrs, the set is not working properly.

  • I bought 1200 today! I think that is good phone, due to price and performance.

  • A good phone with plenty of features but ringtones not loud enough and keypad uncomfortable and hard to use. I expect better than this from Nokia. The Nokia 1100, Nokia 1112 and Nokia 1600 are much better.

  • no one buys fones like this anymore do they???????????

  • check the multi-phonebook feature on the phone itself, set it to normal

  • Hello I have this phone for two days. I must say that the camera owned by this phone even if has a couple of mega pixels, does not have a good quality. It is a good toy however... I like the media player and the stereo jack for microphone and earphones.

  • i bought that phone a week ago .. its good but its got a problem.. that when u try to add a number to a contact like a home no. or office or anyotha number in his name ... this number when call the name wont appear (only the number) actually this bothers me alot i dont know how nokia accept to sell a phone with such bug and i know its a software problem of course..i hope they make a software update for it and fix it

  • I wanted a mobile to send messages to group contacts and tried this one. Unfortunately, in this model, maximum no. of groups that can be created is just 6 (six), with maximum 10 numbers under each group. If you are having more than 60 contacts to whom you have to send messages under group messaging, please don't go for this model. Otherwise it is a quite good basic handset.

  • very nice one economical and profassional and is portable good looking haveing good flash light for emergency.

  • good

  • vey.....very....very simple phone. I like it very much. faster than my nokia 80. i use it for second phone. good looking phone with flash light. very useful in EMERGENCY CASE! can use it for cost management.

  • i just saw the PINK-coloured one.. it's not original casing of the phone.. but damn so gooood. i want it so bad. and i think if theres the white one, it'd be PERFECT.

  • Hi all,the SOLUTION for "Sending message failed" is: Your capacity of 'Sent' is only 25 message,so you must erase it to send a new one Capacity for 'Inbox' is about 90 message +good design,price,battery -the capacity of sms is low,ringtone sound is medium,not high ?i wish nokia put the thermometer features..like an old model:5210 and this little boy can transform become little rascal! :)

  • Hey papis, is the cheapest hand set By Nokia ever?

  • is there any prob when sending or receiving sms

  • If you cannot send sms but can receive it means the message centre number needs to be set again (Messages -> Message settings -> Sending Profile). You should get this number from the provider or copy it from another phone on the same network.

  • Made n India fonz now nokia has shifted from hungary worst finnished quality. thatswhy its cheaper than 1110 1112 as they were hunguary.useles torch even light of every fonz helps u ndark.Someday production will be only parts boxed u assemble yourself n home.

  • after 3days of purchase, my nokia1200 simply wont send message.no prob with incoming and outgoing calls, even receiving msgs.i lost my receipt to avail its warranty, reprogram costs 400!can anyone tell other options?

  • cmon people...we all know what this is..who is gonna buy this one??? cmon...u can get an iphone just for 399 bicks..so..take this thing out of here

  • I bought this phone 2 months ago as a 2nd phone. I mostly use this phone for messaging as I use to msg a lot and my N73 is too slow for messaging and the keypad is also a bit uncomfortable. Nokia 1200 is quite good in messaging. Responce is fast and keypad is also comfortable. The message storage is less ( only 60 sms) although the phone has 4MB memory which is vacant all the time as the phone doesnt have GPRS or any other storage input source. so they should have given more memory to Messaging. I have bought this mobile in Mobile zone guarantee(Pakistan) and the problem is that it has came from india so urdu is not available as a writing language. Moreover calender is also messed up with hindi events and occations which is really really pathetic. Mobile zone should do something about this. The phone also have some software bugs but as someone already said that they are very minor and do not effect the functionality of phone. Upgraded firmwares will solve those buggs. The charging also lasts for a long time.Flash light quite powerful and better than my N73. Call history can save 5 latest missed calls came from the same number. Same is valid for dialled and received numbers. Quite useful feature which was absent in Nokia 1110 & 1112 models. As they use to overwrite the previous missed calls when a new missed call comes from the same number. Overall a really nice phone. Durable & reliable. Nokia is the best in low price handsets as well as expensive ones.

  • So far so good,I bought it yesterday.It's a good & handy set.Thank you Nokia

  • John, hi. Please check ur sms settings. The phone is good, i bought it since it was first launched, i have had no troubles.

  • Consider buying 1208 instead, becasue this model has few problems, earpiece volume too low, SMS sending problems. 1208 is way better, keypad lights are evenly distributed, earpiece volume is very good, you can hear the other person on busy streets very easily, SMS sending works every time you try to send a message.

  • i have this phone and sadly i am not able to understand the multiphone book option. i understand that if i want to lend this phone to someone else that person can use his phone book list.. but i don't know how to go about it... can someone tell me step by step... thanks in advance...

  • Just bought it 2 days, back and started to get happy with it already. The flash light is awesome, and the Rapid Roll game rocks. Offers a lot of customization of shortcuts aswell. The battery is great. I charged it about 40 hours ago and still it shows maximum status. ALso its cheap and i guess the best bet in this money range.

  • at first it was ok,but after 2 days when i tried to send sms,it always said sending failed! any solutions about this guys? HELP

  • The flashlight is helpfull when there is power failure or when in the dark room. When u travelling u can use it as torchlight in an emergency case. [email protected]

  • The flashlight & some features is good but it didn't have Talking Alarm like 1110i.

  • ththis is a gr8 phone......disable multi phone book....and u'll get the software problem fixed.u'll see the name of person who is calling battery is awesome

  • Bought mine in Novemeber as a make shift after being burgled....am loving it..great phone.

  • the flashlight, games and some features is good the only difference is its keypad..1110i's keypad is much better..

  • very bad keypad....same 1650 1208 tipe very bad keypad

  • what do you mean by " 4 mb user memory "

  • Regarding the GPS question, this phone does not have GPS module, and does not support additional GPS devices;-)

  • I bought the Nokia 1200 for my wife last month, Superb! No camera no fm, no nonesences! I am going to buy one to replace my 5 years old Samsung bcause it is much simpler and the excelent battery life of the 1200. Keep-up the good work, Nokia!

  • i dont care about fancy features like caller ID. Does this phone have build in GPS???

  • Good phone. I disagree with those who say the software is buggy.This problem is not in general, at least not with my device.

  • this phone is good in every aspect absolutely no comments on it, but it's cosmetic look is very village. common nokia wake up, the look and finishing of this model is not to anyone's taste. you can at least improve the color of it's body.

  • Really,Thank you Nokia for making such efficient,good and cheap mobile phone in the market.Really it is useful,lightweight,good ringtones,games,& finally the torchlight. Hope u try 2 make these kind of mobile phones,that will help people 2 use this. I just bought this phone on 28th Nov & really is cool,good looking.And again,thanks Nokia.

  • The caller id problem can be solved by storing all the names in General on the phone (names) memory.

  • Really,Thank you Nokia for making such efficient,good and cheap mobile phone in the market.Really it is useful,lightweight,good ringtones,games,& finally the torchlight.

  • Since i lost my blackberry, i decided to purchase cheaper fones since i didnt actually need all that crap that comes with expensive fones... The nokia 1200s'battery is excellent by any comparison and its versatile and easy to use... the design could be enhanced a bit but just knowing that it is made in India was another asset for me to purchase the fone... keep it up guys!

  • i agree to dilepcc>>>the software is buggy.. it always shut off... the nokia 1110i is much better

  • batery life is about 12 days with a BL-5C 1020 mAh !! is a great phone !!

  • This is a good phone(For talking purpose) and has a long battery life.

  • Everything is all right with this phone but the so call green backlight look like yellow. I hate yellow. Maybe Nokia should let us to choose our backlight colour by putting more choice of colour in this phone.

  • Hi all..... Dont go for this model. It's software is too buggy. I have this one and having caller id problem in the software. better to go for another model.... dileep

  • it's a good fone with entry level features.... really maruthi 800 ....... but performance is like benz.....hihih..........

  • I am from Singapore. I brought this in malaysia. I hate the Green BackLight. I suggest Cyan, White. The Green Light Sucks

  • hi all,this is a beauty.It is all you need from a basic cell(that too at that price).Excellent battery life,torch and louspeaker with conf call facilities.sms (send later),repeat alarm and calender are very useful.What else do you want at this price.Headset is the same that comes with Nokia N72 model. On the whole a REAL BEAUTY,the maruti 800 of phones....if you know what i mean.

  • I like this phone. Easy to use, flash light is good! I haven't had any ploblem with it.

  • 'am from India, TN.... i lost my 6100 and bought it ..feels that it's s.w is faster than 6100 but desing is not good..battery life is very very good. but troubling with SOFTWARE BUG... it doesnt show caller name in the address book during incoming calls. The next version of software may solve it...so dont attend the call till next release of the software hihhiihi

  • I have bought it, 2 weeks before....in my regular use,i charge only once and the battery charge is still remains....it's a good battery life but.. the design is not good. the keypad is worse.....not better that 1100!!...software is buggy during incoming calls.....

  • Nokia is not rocks but drops...... The software problem in caller id is not minor....why nokia is not caring it???? It's better to go for Motorola W180, good basic fone with excellent battery life and FM too... j.jagdish

  • hi all, Still it rocks.........but having software problems in caller id. else it's a basic fone with good features. Good battery life!! and we expect FM too, but nobody knows about the headset. thx..

  • to Rajan: im experiencing he same problem too.. im fund of making calls but no market can dispense me a compatible HEADSET(handsfree) for this phone..even nokia outlets doesn't have one..grrr...but other than that,its a very great phone..i owe it already for 4 months and the battery performance doesnt fade..

  • Hi.... 'Am from India....1200 really good for my simple usage...the camera,mp3 all are with me in my laptop.....am a SAP consultant and want to travell a lot...may be 3-4 days within a shot....so 1200 cooperates with me without making any problem of discharge even 2-3 hours talking and 4-5 days standby....and I can serve Indian railways' dark room comparments with simple tourch light.....it's usefult for others too .......hihihi

  • Hi....... i am fed up with the software problem.......mainly caller id and i noticed it only after a week later, no way to give back to shop...else i would buy another set....go for motorolla w160 with FM,cheap and best........

  • Hi All........ the fone is rock..but problem with caller id software.........it's too hectic for me, am thinking of throw it out and buy another cell .......

  • Hi all. 'am from India. This fone is simply rock...mono screen doesn't eat more battery power.Very fast operation, very good battery life, cheap...but the only problem is with SOFTWARE, it's dump.....it wont display some incoming caller names even it's saved in the memory......i can't identify anybody thru fone's address book...totally rubbish caller id mechanism.......... it's better to go for MOTOROLLA W160....than this headache fone 1200.............

  • Hi, To check the NOKIA battery is original or not go the below link "http://www.nokia.co.id/nokia/0,,82227,00.html" and type your battery sl. no and type. br Srihari. J

  • does it have a mat finishing

  • Nokia 1200 Navi key: This is a amazing phone, Navi Key is useful turn it left to send a messages and turn it right to check the calendar or set some reminds or push it down to access your contacts list. i think Navi key absolutely better than older model like scroll key on 1100. Alarm Clock with "Repeat Alarm" option, this is very good for me. 32 Channel Polyphonic Sound is very nice at this price but i think isn't loud! Flash light is good and shining. Very fast on/off and in menu too. Battery life is perfect. Too easy and too fast! Enjoy it.

  • i have puchased a nokia 1200. i want to know my battry is good or not. please tell me my battry no. is 06704954379950431h13906647

  • does it have alarm service

  • this phone has software problems. let's wait for some upgrading technicians who can upgrade the version. best buy for buyers who seek more battery life.

  • Hello people! There's nothing wrong with the caller name ID of this phone. You'll just have to learn to program it properly. Ask your dealer if you can't do it properly yourself. You don't have to buy a new phone just because you haven't learnt to use the current one.

  • best and cheapest phone in the world if you want a no frills handset for smsing. i love it! this is what a phone should be like, not with all the bundled things which make it slow sometimes. its terribly simple but hey, i bet its faster than your camera phones "LOADING 0%.... LOADING 12%...."

  • This is real phone with cost effective options and essential features. Im choose this model of NOKIA for these reason : 1- very very good battery life 2- Mono Display => no problem in direct sunlight 3- at this price we have a essential options more than other models like this.(specially 4 MB shared memory) 4- Nice 32 Channel Polyphonic ring tones, (this is a good option at this price) 5- hands feeling is better than old models at this series 6- anti dust and stamina keypad, good for messaging its ROCK!

  • i lost my 1100 few days ago i loved it and its flashlight so i bought 1200 when i found its the replacement for 1100. but i think there are some disadvantages 1- the 1100 battery life was much better 2- digits in 1100's keypad was seperated but i don't like 1200's keypad 3- maybe it's strange but i don't want my 1100 sound and music because only that loud sound could wake me up Maybe this cellphone doesn't have mp3 player ,camera , blutooth .. but i think cellphone can not be a good camera or something ... it's better to buy a cellphone and a good lightweight camera like sony w-35 or cannon ixy70 you would get better quality for both cell & camera and ... and cellphones like 1100 are with more strength and better life because more modern mobiles are much more vulnerable because of their enhancements And again if you lose your cell like me you can easily replace it anyway it depends on you

  • I am from India, i purchased it for Rs 1450,... really nice one except sw bug...... does't show name even if it's save on the phone or sim....it's most important thing but doest mind by nokia.....

  • HEY...the phone is horrible with the software bug....i cant see the saved contact names for incoming std calls ........ really tired off......go for another model.....

  • If the caller's name doesn't come on even though you've programmed it, you've got the settings wrong! Under the 'multiphonebook' feature, set it to NORMAL PHONEBOOK. There's nothing wrong with the caller ID of the phone, you just have to accordingly.

  • someone know how to reply for the sim request service

  • Hi, I want to use this phone in the United States, but it looks like the frequencys are not for the US. Are Nokia going to put out a tri, or even quad band version, or at the very least another dual band that does 850/1900? I would really like this to replace my faithful 1100 (cingular branded), because of the calender and speakerphone (both killer features I kinda really need), and the brighter flashlight. It is either this, or a refurb Nokia 5140 or 5140i. I only need a durable, cheap phone with a speakerphone, a calender, and a flashlight (though that last one is a nobility feature, I like it). I don't need a color screen, camera, bluetooth, or all that other crap. Though I like the compass, and the thermometer on the 5140/i, 16 day battery life is impressive, and my BL-5C in the 1100 is down to about 4 days of life under my usage, I used to get 9-10 days. The battery cover also has an ever growing crack, and instead of investing in a new cover and battery, I would rather get a phone that has the features I need. And yes, I prefer the monochromatic screens. Any thoughts?

  • This phone is ROCK

  • I have just bought a Nokia 1200. The caller's name does not come on the screen and that makes it very inconvenient. It is shocking that nokia has overlooked the importance of it.

  • i want to use headset, but not available in market and not suplied with the set

  • i just bought it yesterday. everything is ok except for the keypad because sometimes you tend to push the other numbers.

  • Good battery life and nice basic fone, but having software problems like ,it wont show contact name for std incoming calls , it's very importat feature for user point of view and should be solved........

  • did this phone have a flashlight?

  • You may be having problems with the multiphonebook feature- this new feature allows several users to share the same phone with their own individualized phonebooks. You may have accidentally tuned into one of those other phonebooks. I did the same while meddling with the phone! To remedy, go to 'contacts,' then ''settings' then 'multiphone book' and click phonebookstyle 'normal.' I think this is quite a confusing feature. How many people these days actually share a phone, I have no idea... If you are a lone user, turn off the multiphonebook, just use the phonebook style 'normal.' Hope this helps.

  • hi. i bought this phone 10 days ago. i am sufring with a problem. This set is getting restart as i send 2 or 3 messages. how can i remove this?

  • I bought this phone 2 weeks ago as a 2nd phone. I mostly use this phone for messaging as I use to msg a lot and my N73 is too slow for messaging and the keypad is also a bit uncomfortable. Nokia 1200 is quite good in messaging. Responce is fast and keypad is also comfortable. The message storage is less ( only 60 sms) although the phone has 4MB memory which is vacant all the time as the phone doesnt have GPRS or any other storage input source. so they should have given more memory to Messaging. I have bought this mobile in Mobile zone guarantee(Pakistan) and the problem is that it has came from india so urdu is not available as a writing language. Moreover calender is also messed up with hindi events and occations which is really really pathetic. Mobile zone should do something about this. The phone also have some software bugs but as someone already said that they are very minor and do not effect the functionality of phone. Upgraded firmwares will solve those buggs. The charging also lasts for a long time.Flash light quite powerful and better than my N73. Call history can save 5 latest missed calls came from the same number. Same is valid for dialled and received numbers. Quite useful feature which was absent in Nokia 1110 & 1112 models. As the use to overwrite the previous missed calls when a new missed call comes from the same number. Overall a really nice phone. Durable & reliable. Nokia is the best in low price handsets as well as expensive ones.

  • hi to all actually i want bye this phone can anybody confirm is there in caller time option is available or not...

  • if the caller name doesn't appear even if it is in your directory list, chances are there are 2 entries in yuor phone directory with either the same name or same number.

  • I just purchased n1200, tell me why the incoming call name do not show up even though i've put the names in my phone book. so whenever somebody call me or sms me, only the number show up not the name. please reply asap coz i'm so hopeless about this.

  • i purchased nokia 1200 model mobile. 1200 mobile is good. but i have a problem of eyer phone. which type eyer phone set in this mobile. i m stuck in purchased this mobile. pls help me.

  • does this phone has a lock code? like the 1100. like if you open the the phone that has lock keypads, u can't unlock it because u need to have to key in a code 1st.. pls help. i want this for an extra phone but i don't know if my messages are secured in here...

  • ahamed what's the problem if it's made in India. are you a pakistani??? 1200 is the best basic phone that's available in the market. no matter it comes from India or china or timbhaktu it's Nokia and Nokia means mobile and mobile means Nokia....got it?????

  • umm well i like it, i have 3 cheap phones including this one and (1)expensive one for display =P - what me liked most about this phone is- the battery last longer than other phones (specially those colored ones), very light, keypads are great (fast and easy) and no big deal when losing it =D specially if you're from phil. "mandurukots"/snatchers are everywhere.

  • hi peeps..from philippines here..i have this phone for two months now..i have problem with the headset.just want to ask if anybody knows what kind of handsfree does it support? i've been on almost cell stores and all their handsfree is not supported by the phone.does anyone has this problem too or just me? pls help, ur response will be greatly appreciated.tnx a lot...

  • this nokia phone is like 1100 but with a cooler style.it has not camera or smt else,but it is cute and nice and it is with a good batterie i will buy it for christmas

  • Your old charger wont work with 1200 model. Nokia has introduced this new charger in 1200 and it newer phone. It is one main defect of this otherwise good phone. The phone can store only 60 messages which is really small

  • Hello, i am using a old nokia 1100- will the old nokia chargers (used by 1100 and similar models) work with the new 1200 model. would appericate a response from anyone. many thanks

  • its cool basic mobile.. anyone know about its msgs storage max limit?

  • it is a nice & small size mobile,,,,, which is nokia's best achievement over the others... i did't say that it is the best of all but is a nice achievement...........thanks i love nokia,in such variety of productions.....

  • I have used this phone for a month now. I previously used Nokia 1100 (still love it but it lacks handfree) n Nokia 1110 (ugly screen, i lost it anyway). Overall 1200 is a excellent basic mobile but with one flaw (at least 4 me). Here are my overall review What i liked: -Good battery life: one charge normally lasts for three days with normal use n sometimes longer. -Tourchlight: Really bright & useful -Screen: Unlike colour screen the good thing about monochrome screen is it is viewable all the time. Even when i turn off the backlight the text (n power saver clock) is visible in even dim lighting condition. Some may prefer colour screen its the taste of people but for me monochrome screen rocks but brighter 1 as of 1108 would have been better. -Calender: This is very neat feature for the price of this phone. I can input all my holidays and schedule. -KeyPad: The keypad of model 1100 n 1110 were best(I do lot of text messeging). Although 1200 keys r bit difficult , the keys layout and overall feeling much better than motorola models which i have tried. -Performance: No comment here, the sound quality was good if not better. -Rigidness: The ads say, this mobile is meant to be rugged n is able to withstand shocks and drops, which is good but i'm not sure abt this claim. What i didnt like: Charger: This is 1 thing i really hate about this model. Nokia has introduced a charger with new point(so charger of other nokia models wont work with this one). With other nokia models i could easily charge them most of the time since Nokia phones r common.But with its new charger point in this model i dont have that comfort. Wonder why Nokia made this move. This is a serious flaw 4 me as i'm not at home always. Overall design: Ok it varies with people but 2 me the look & design of 1110 model was better. Message storage: It can only store 60 messages which is not enough i think. The cheapest motorola phone offers more message storage. There r some software problems but they r extremely minor. Overall, except for new charging point and less message capacity the phone is excellent for people who really need a basic mobile. I do wish Nokia offered this model with a FM tuner.

  • Yes it can use BL5C battery.

  • hey guys can you help me Im planning to buy this phone but I wanna know first if it is compatible with another BL-5C because the battery says it is BL-5CA...please I need your help!

  • yesssss

  • I have it from 02 weeks a i think it is the best basic pjhone to use in a whole week. you have not to charge it every nigh when you sleep. the pnly drawback for this phone i think is its Key paid whci is very touchy and get colour fed after us of 2 weeks only.

  • I have it for one week. The battery lasted for 6 days from purchase (at an average of 30 minutes of talking per day). Very good phone for someone who only wants a phone to talk. Also has a calendar feature. The alarm is not very powerful. The keypad is not as comfortable as of 1112's. The flashlight is very bright and does not consume much power.

  • its a nice phone but probem is made in india

  • Does this Nokia 1200 support FDN (Fixed Dialling)?

  • @Saran: Battery is coming more than 2days for average use... Dude, i don't now what you mean (average use), but i charge mine evry 8dais and i don't stop playng with him

  • I am using Nokia 1200, it is very nice and portable to use,2 MP3 ringtones are available as in built.Battery is coming more than 2days for average use.many phone languages are available such as tamil,hindi,english,etc........ Very nice phone.

  • I don't think so i am buy nokia 1200 and they are defactive set one mounth ago they have no network coverage what i do?\

  • question about the call timer/limiter. I know it can be set for 30 seconds, 1 minute and so on. can it be set for other times like 49 seconds? or 58 seconds? or are the times pre-selected on the phone?

  • It is the best phone in the market today.Its like maruti 800,think what i am comparing and you will know what it is.Excellent with long battery life,useful torch(we are in India...10 hours powercut),call management features,excellent speakerphone.what else do you want??????basic sturdy model.Good show nokia..

  • people are leaving silly comments on a such a basic phone & their expectations from such a phone are ridiculous to the core. this model is one of the best models i have come across in the basic phone catagory.

  • is ugly, OK! but bad...i don't think so! i have it and is very useful(i have the 1100 2) i don't understand what do you people want from 50� phone, maybe 5mp camera, 8x optical zoom and autofocus??? Or vibrator (i think)

  • Hi,i saw the phone and am plannin to buy it.but does it have software problems?i'm from india.

  • 1100 was excellent, 1112 was good, 1200 is bad and ugly.

  • Nokia 1200 dubale SIM not sport

  • mobzy You said it right. There are lot of flaws in every manufacturer�s mobile phones. They should infact appreciate the opinions of the users and take that as a constructive criticism and improve upon their forth coming models.

  • this model sold in middle east doesn't have any problems that the people from other regions are talking about. phone has excellent speaker and microphone quality and moreover it's just a basic phone and should not be compared to high end models. only glitch that i found on this model is that the keypad lights are green, hence the number/letter on the key pad are not boldy visible in the dark thus making it difficult to text message. engineers at Nokia should seriously look into this flaw. low end models from other manufacturers have really taken care of this feature. however i rate this model 9/10.

  • The phone is very bad inside - software consists bugs, the flash light resets itself, the battery life in standby is up to 4 days!!! Also the keyboard digits dismiss after 3-4 weeks operation. I have 1100 which battery work in standby up to 7 days. Step back for NOKIA...

  • hi from the philippines here. this phone is very much usable and it has an mp3 ringtone capability. very much simple. for those who cannot afford to buy higher model try this first.

  • Is not a problem, it's a bug ;) restart him

  • when i put on the fixed dialling option and again put it off, my phone hang. is this a problem of the software or hardware? i am from bangladesh.

  • with the BL-5C of my 1108 its unstoppable!!!

  • Works fine for just calling. SMS Sending is buggy, Phone restarts and hangs when sending messages to multiple receiptents. Battery life good. For me gives 3.5 hrs total talktime, 300 messages, and the battery lasted for 2 days. Over all a good model and value for money but need to iron out the bugs.

  • When i get in my Hand.................. Its just a Phone but when im trying to Use it ... its cool but i found some problems..... i was three times reseted the factory settings for those problems.... its not showing the name for ISD callers... and its not showing.. the time correctly when we set the option about auto update time.... but the features are cools have to improve some.... if it has moon light... it wil grow as N series

  • No! you can't

  • HI ,just got this phone,the ringing volume is very low even when i put it on number 5,is it mine is like this?or its the 1200 its like this, is there any way i can make it louder?

  • got it about 2 days! nice! is perfect for me if some one have any questions...pls!

  • Best Price , Best Specification , Best Pice, all Good options...

  • fine

  • Does this phone have a flash light ?? , It does not say it on the website but i saw it on one of the covers..

  • Green light is very ugly.

  • WHICH features??? Mi friend, get in your poket 300� and go shoping features!!! This is a seple model for low price, so you don't like - don't buy and su!

  • WHICH features??? It has none...

  • As far as features are concern i think this is the best but i dont know why Nokia is still using green lights for display,they should be white for better dispslay.

  • I bougth this phone as i have been told that it has battery life and signal srength.. nice to know it dont have either of them :(

  • After being tired of the technology of imate I decided to buy small one which does calling, SMS with alarm. I found this with a long last battery, mono-color, simple and cheap and I bought it. I found that it is more than what I expected. it has an exciting features like multi-phonebooks(5), right key(go-to) and lots of things like the good feature which is timed profile. it is nice phone really.

  • GOD... This thing suxx! Something like this comes out from a chewing gum machine for free...

  • GSM arena please put a video file with this phone! I want to see the menu and the keypad.

  • I bought this phone and used for some weeks, this is a very good mobile for simple use like calls and SMS,i found a bug in its software that is when u search the number from phone book by entering alphabet and reach to desired number, the option menu does not open to edit that contact, For changing any contact u need to scroll to that number and then the option menu works. This bug still need to fix. Thanks Junaid B.Sc (HONS) Computer Science

  • It's just a phone. Just pick it up, talk, text, recharge it from time to time. It's not supposed to do anything else. Sometimes we forget what it's all about. We want to have a telephone, a music player, a camera and a television set in one small gadget. Why not a microwave too? =)) I'm obsessed with long battery life and the 1200 satisfies my needs. I only switch it with my E50 when I need mobile internet. But this one is ideal for long conversations, without needing to carry your charger everywhere you go. It's basic, and nothing more.

  • Hey guys, at the end of the day... it's simplicity that one is looking for right? We have had phones with those technology advancement... yet it's again basic things right? SMS --> text, pressing --> on keypad, sending video --> yeah like everyday? It's just too bad that basic phones are always translated as very skimmed on features...

  • "yeeeeeeeeesssssss!that's what i am going to buy to my girlfriend at her birthday.she's going to be soooo excided!!!!well done nokia making a break up so easy with masterpiece of s..t like this" My wife would KILL me for that and ask for divorce!

  • "stoneage? you mean welcome back to the peak of telecommunications? since the nokia monochrome phones, it's been a downhill slide in terms of usability and ease of use. i'm thinking of getting this, and the new ipod touch, and being a happy camper. everything else sucks." Hellllloooo! Wake up! This is the year 2007! People use Skype and WiFi for calling, Messengers like ICQ, MSN or whatever instead of paying ripoff prices like 5000 US$ for 1 MB (SMS). And they have their mobile computer and office in their pocket for example with Windows Mobile 6. They do not even need an expensive iPod, because their cellphone has 2 GB or more memory and can play whatever music or movie they like. Welcome to modern times!

  • it is a very good economical phone with almost all the basic features very good battery life-flsh light is powerfull-calendar-poly fonic tones [email protected]/- pak rupees no fear of theft stolen a solid set

  • Can anybody tell me how many sms this 1200 could have in its inbox?? because i had 1110 before and it could hold not more than 70 sms in its BOX !! and I was so annyoyed by its blinking indicaton of " NO MORE SPACE " all the time !!!! This 1200 seems to me cool otherwise..

  • A flashlight it also has!!

  • a nice , light , cheap phone. good life battry. but needs its own special charger.

  • well no doubt that its a good set but every set have some Draw backs as this set is haveing the restart draw back when u check the call history and then press the "BACK" it goes restart :((((((((

  • in this model not showing network providers balance amount and when recharge the net work providers recharge coupen amuont not cannot display. not in mobile call records 20 missed,20 dialled,20 recieved call details please inform me

  • nice phoneeeeeeeee.... simple n easy, long life battery (i haven't charge it since i bought it)... it is cheap actually but it just really a great phone. NOKIA rocks!!!!!

  • hi, i only think of using 1200 as a vegetarian, ppls have been eating a lot of meat, should learn to be vegetarian sometimes....in my countries, ppls look for old phone such 8210,8250,8310,6310i, 8910, 8890, really shocked to tell they pay 20,30, 50,100 bucks for it, crazy mania !!! i myself should rather buy a new technique fone like 1200 to be with me, no pain, no sorrow, no worry...about when it pisses me off like the old phones.

  • Another rock Nokia basic phone! Simple,compact and concise. Nokia did listen to my adivise that abandon the ascending ringing volume pattern if the volume set is at level 5 (won't miss the call easily as 1112) However, Nokia still dosen't retro the tradional ring ring(British style)tone as in 8210 which I like most. Hope can be download from her offical support website.........

  • nokia in the first time launage for mobileset for charges light in made by china this is inform please for mobileset for made by hungry annoucement for nokia 1200

  • What the hell is this nokia? I know your market needs entry level phones but this looks like a phone from the early 90's! Even the 1100, 1110i or 1600 looks way better than this. Atleast if your making an enrty level phone try put more style into it! This phone rocks!...and looks like one too! Ok ok, I know I may sound to harsh but guys be honest if there are only 4 phone models left in this world, make it be the nokia 1100,1112 or 1200 or 1600, Are you honestly going to choose this one?

  • i just have it 4 days ago. it's a simple n nice phone. looks cheap actually but for just make a phone call or sending SMS its just perfect. ^^

  • Talk Time only 4Hours, Very Poor Keypad, Wish it can save sms on memory not sim card

  • hi it is not nice phone i got this phone after the very my own interest but this keypad is poor nokia bad days are near itis china phone what is all nokia doing i had nokia 1100 that is best ever phone i sell now i have poor nokia 1200 phone is fun with peoples poor pad

  • OMG it has flashlight just like 1100? this phone has everything a cellphone needs: -Long battery -Good sound quality (hey its a nokia!) -wont break or scratch (item) and also a plus... clock and flashlight! Also i dont know about other 3rd world countries but in mine you can see people picking garbage from the street or begging for money with V3 on their hands, yes they get 50$ a month but still use them to buy a V3 XDD The only 3rd world thing i see in this is since we have so many blackouts the flash light does a great job!...hmm wait there are blackouts in "1st" world too...

  • i have this phone and it is a excellent phone. bcoz when u use it daily about 4,5 hours for incoming outgoing calls and you hate to recharge battery again and again it has excellent battery life. you can make calls receive calls 4,5 hours per day, receiving or sending sms without recharging battery after every 3,4 hours... and low budget torch fone etc etc its excellent. ppl who are complaining why they are not using any other phone ..... ????? i guess they want everything in a phone having cost only 38$.... hahahaha stupid ppl

  • It's just a phone, but very good phone without no needed futures, like: photo camera, color display, internet connection, MP3 player and etc... It's a "working horse" for those, who need to talk for many hours and don't like to charge a phone every day...

  • Available in Bulgaria 50�!! awesome basic phone!! the torch is more bright compare with mi 1100 calendar, apoitments, converter... only if it has radio wel be perfect :)

  • This phone gives me the impression of 'The cat that wanted the cream but got the sour milk'. Why sell yourself this short now after all these years? There is more for less than this. If you want a basic phone that you may lose on a site or break by 'accident' then go for a 3510 or even a 3310 for like �8 on eBay or something. What a waste of time and money to attempt to revive 9 year old technology... or whatever they were thinking. There is simply no reason to buy this.

  • stoneage? you mean welcome back to the peak of telecommunications? since the nokia monochrome phones, it's been a downhill slide in terms of usability and ease of use. i'm thinking of getting this, and the new ipod touch, and being a happy camper. everything else sucks.

  • Welcome back to the stoneage of telecommunications! ;)

  • Can't wait to get it! Ever since I switched from a Siemens C35 to a Nokia 1100, I've been a Very Happy Puppy :) Why? It's got no features worth speaking of. Exactly! It's a PHONE! It does everything I ever want to do with a cell phone - call, receive calls, send and receive SMS - using a very fast and intuitive user interface. The battery lasts forever, the display is very bright, the reception is good and the torch has been useful to me on innumerable occasions. But unfortunately, it got destroyed on a recent bike ride, and while it still works, the display is quite dead. If it weren't for the new 1200, I'd probably buy another 1100. Anyway, looking forward to this cell phone, and I hope Nokia will continue to make quality, cheap, no-frills, no-bs, phones like the legendary 1100.

  • it's not coming soon it's launched go and look at www.jumbocorp.com [Dubai]

  • this is a good fone but zeus you are the kind of person who sez "dont worryu dnt litsen to these dumbsh*ts my opinion matters more!" you dont no that we all dont know how to use a nokia n73 so get over your self!!! i have had many old fones my last phone was a noka 5210 but i haved moved to newer technology and got a sony ericsson z610 and it is fabulus! oh yeah and zeus if u r lisening shut up and get fked!

  • i bought one of these for $78 and i loved it until my dog chewd it up! now i have my old fone the 5210. its still pretty good for a 4 year old fone. keep the good stuff up nokia!

  • There was a time when people were crazy about the Nokia 8310 because at that point of time Nokia N 95 8 GB was not avaialable & no one even knew at that time that N 95 8 GB would come out one day, otherwise people would have continued using their Nokia 3310, until Nokia N 95 8 GB came out. Anyways, that is the past, now with regards to Nokia 1200, this phone is mainly for people in the third world countries who cannot afford 2 square meals a day & who think that a phone is a luxury & having burger at MCDonalds is a luxury. And not to forget it is also for people, who would just like to have a basic phone, just for making & rec'in phone calls & sending & rec'in sms & nothing more than that. This phone is right for them. So other people please do not come here complaining that Nokia 1200 does not have a cam or mp3 player, go & check out other phones which have these features & post your valuable opinion there. Good job Nokia, it is really nice of you to continue making various entry level phones & also high end pohones on the other hand. This would help you to survive & remain No.1 in the mobile phone industry around the world. Cheers!!

  • I`m agree with Zeus opinion,,hell yeahh!!

  • its about time they came up with another torch phone since the sudden death of the 1100. its a simple and durable phone (not as rugged as the 1100 but..) i love it.

  • all you people complaining about nokia's idea of making these entry-level phones, get this: NOT EVERYONE wants the same shoes, NOT EVERYONE wants a 10MP camera, NOT EVERYONE wants a BMW, and NOT EVERYONE wants an iPhone. so stop complaining and if you are after TOY cellphones with mp3 and camera and bluetooth and all that then get out of here and go to the N-series forums where your comments would rather be appreciated!

  • Hi guys I just want to draw yours attention regarding the 1200 NOKIA phone .its really good phone I just bought this phone week a go .and I didn�t charged again during the week again. Most in the Asian counters will prefer to use this sort of phones .although it doesn�t means that they don�t have money .but know a days if you look back in to couples of months then u imagine that the crime are to increasing around these countries so that�s why this is nice ..Not expansive..And GOOD �NO DOUGHT.. NOKIA CONNECTING PEOPLE

  • helo, im using a 1600. i like the pre time seting func of 1200. hv a plan to go to 1200 from 1600. 1600 is v nice for cal and sms! hop 1200 wil also betr for it and torch , pre seted timer as wel.

  • Poor phone by nokia, just 60 sms storage capacity.

  • hahaha what the "f" is this???After the "great" N95 another 20th century phone? come on nokia,get some new ideas.. I mean,even S/E J120 is better than this...

  • is it true dat the keypad number dissappears after short usage???? plz lemme kn

  • Guys .. I have a Sony Handycam and a Sony 10 megapixel digicam. And as a rock music artist, i dont think i have to say what i use for music when im on the run or at home. Grow up guys. Why r u runnin after friggin 5MP camera phones with Mp3 and mp4 at stuff. These stuff r so friggin childish. A good cellphone must have: - good long lasting battery - simplicity and speed of usage - good network catching - lightweight and comfortable and 1200 has all of this. This phone is not for you maniacs who consider N73 or N95 as their dream gadgets. You donno sh*t bout hi-tech gadgets. This is a real phone and does what real phones r supposed to do. This phone is for sensible people who have much better stuff to do in life than spend time on a beauty contest winning phone. And yes ... not for poor countries. We rockstars use it too!

  • im from pakistan...would anyone tell me is nokia 1200 has exchangeable covers..plz respond

  • from previous poster: " the digits disappear after 1 month use." hugh, where has this phone been available for over a month? link? also, which firmware and modelnumber do you have? type this on keypad *#0000#

  • very weak gsm it is disgrace for nokia NEGATIVES: 1. software is too slow 2. the keyboard is is versy soft material made 3. the digits disappear after 1 month use. 4. the microphone is not loud PLUS: 1. the battery life is more than 7 days if you talk 20-25 min per day 2. it is water resistant - get in a glass of water and still works

  • This phone really rocks! Thanks nokia!

  • The 1200 will be available within one week.

  • i think this is probably one of the top phones for people who work in connditions that are very dusty etc.. perfect.. and eaven if it breaks no harm. 40 dollars is rubish

  • i want to know his sms memory

  • i have purchased nokia 1200 some days ago.this set is light weight and with long battery time near about six days approx.its flash light is higer than nokia 1100.its function of call tracker and time sms is so outstanding.now there is no tention of checking the timer during call because there is also available time tracker funtion.before calling any no you can set time between thirty seconds and up.atlast this is so cheep and handdy set.

  • this is a best ph in less budget but i want to know his sms memory because i want to buy this ph early plz clear my point

  • I have purchased this phone for Rs 2300 (38 US Dollars). its a combination of Nokia 1100 and nokia 1110. It has a flashlight on top which is activated by pressing the "Up" key. The keypad is also perfect. very smoth and easy for sms. and very light weight. the back of the phone is also stylish, the battery cover is of the color of phone body. so casing we can just change the front cover. Rest is same as that of Nokia 1110i. But the ringtones r not as load as that of 1110. Very very goog set. Perfect for its price.

  • thanks nokia for making this ph. my friend who had been in prison for last 7 years really has an eye on this phone ..no joke!!

  • This phone is availabale n Pakistan for Rs 2300(USD 38). I have seen this in sadar Rawalpindi. But why GSM Arena says comming soon? The shopkeeper said that it also has a flashlight like Nokia 1100. Good Phone.

  • I just want a phone that I can use...period...all of you out there who are using it for "status" ...you shouldn't even be talking on the phone...you are the people who have a NEED to be noticed and are the "screamers" in the stores-Dr. offices-street etc....grow up!

  • omg no way.. is this ph selling @ $10? should be.. and nokia has nice marketing target. for kids under 6 years old and for granny over 70s.. sure no eye catching for robbers.

  • Isn't that like a design from a decade ago?

  • This phone is just too great!!first of all the price,well imagine dropping your iphone on the floor and compare to dropping this phone on the floor?what will your reaction possibly be?This phone is cheap and there's rubber around it so, dropping it doesnt make much harm. besides that,i've heard current usage of the classic nokia 3210 or 3310 as weapons,just as protection.so what you expect?torch n a hard phone=GREAT phone

  • i belive it is not for the developed countries. it for those , where to much load-seading or power supply cut, who want to minimize there phone bill, the elder person who need a light and simple mobile set, who needs a emergency light but not a torch light, who need a light phone and more talk time. i belive it will be hit in bangladesh , india and other indian contigent countries.it will be a hot sell model in this areas.

  • I dont understand Nokia with this handset, they got various budget handsets already. This one really does not anything to it. Kinda too bad they release such kinda handsets still. Ok color screen is not a MUST HAVE but lets be honest it is nice and kinda standard nowadays. I am a nokia loving person but too be honest I dont think this handset has any added value if you look at wich other basic handsets nokia provides. So dear nokia (not that you read this i guess but still =P) keep up the good work with other handsets and just let this handset be because this one is really not needed in my honest opinion

  • hi i am ibrahim from Bangladesh. i think 1200 will be the very hi selling product in Bangladesh.Because here is a demand of the hand set with torch light.

  • it is a very nice mobile set.

  • is this a phone ?

  • i dont understand why is this a new phone. even my nan has a colour screen. i think they should nail this phone to a frisby and flip it over a rainbow.

  • Hi. i am from omar Bangladesh. when this set is coming to Bangladesh?? i give this phone 10/10 in advance. cause i know its gonna BOOM the BD market.come soon 1200....!!!

  • This is a real phone. Simple, Light and fully functional. It does'nt have redundacies!

  • hi i'm richie,i like that handset,i wish that it was being available also in the phils..waiting 4 it..

  • hi i am momin from Bangladesh. i think 1200 will be the very hi selling product in Bangladesh.Because here is a demand of the hand set with torch light.

  • Holy !@#$.. regret getting my 6290, this much better.. 10/10

  • ZZZOMG!!!!!i cant believe this mobile's coming out soon!been waiting for a mobile like this for ages!!best mobile ever.i'd much rather get this than the iphone

  • I dont understand Nokia with this handset, they got various budget handsets already. This one really does not anything to it. Kinda too bad they release such kinda handsets still.

  • hey guys cool phone!!!!bought this over N72. suggest all to buy this.light weight,easy to carry,fewer no of phonebook entries so that u remember them all by urself.

  • best phone ever made in the world... i'll ditch my E90 for this!!!!!1111!!11!!!!1!!

  • hello all !! this is subodh from india i am nokia senior sales promoter this phone is really interesting it has 3 main features 1)Torch light 2)Anti Slip Grip 3)Time Tracker - with this function u can set call timer for each call i.e.,30 seconds,1min,2min to 99 min after that your call will be automatically disconnected .

  • I'm buying this over a Nokia N73. This phone will keep me busy for days with all the features. Best phone on the market to buy.

  • There is a certain market out there, that only want a phone that is cheap, calls, texts and has BIG numbers. This phone, Nokia, will be perfect and will definatly be a huge seller in the future. People that laugh, and make fun of limited features - Think about all the nokia has on the market for you at the moment! N95? 6110? 5500? N73? E series? You're covered already! You have what you need and want! This one is for the other side of the market. Thank you Nokia.

  • this is a good one to have as a spare or back up phone or just sonething to leave in my car.....not as my main phone - my mates would laugh at me. lol, probably not if ur in the older generation.

  • I don't want a colored screen - it sucks battery life fast. If this one has 4 lines of text when typing and reading text messages (just like the Nokia 1100), then I would definitely buy this one. Long battery life, simple, and I can use this in the public without having to worry much about snatchers and holduppers!

  • Black&white display is MUCH better than colour display. Direct sunshine makes colour TFT unreadable...

  • If Nokia thinks so much about the developing countries and those who want to make calls only and send/recieve text;why don't they stuck with 1100,1110,1108etc. There is no point in making phones with a new fecia!Instead make new fecias only and launch in the market,ha!ha!ha!

  • Should I buy this or the Nokia N73? I think i'm buying this instead of the N73. This phone will last me a long time.

  • lol this has higher ratings than HTC P6300

  • Is anyone still buying black and white TV? Yet even those who are... is there any need for a brand new black and white TV? And just one question to Nokia... why?

  • There are a lot of stupid people here. Nokia 1200 is a good phone for those people who only want to tex and to make calls. If you want colored phones, there are a lot of models that you can choose from Nokia or SE. Thanks nokia for the new 1200!it is a awesome phone. By the way i dont need a megapixel phone,because no one will match my canon Ixus! haha!

  • Alcatel stolen design. Nokia is going down down down down....

  • this model is nokia-2100 by best model for 1200

  • It has Polyphony...

  • Lol people, this phome is affordable, I have something simple, monochrome screen. If you wan't all the features, just buy a laptop.

  • QXte u dont understand! its not 4 cheap countries because you can get a camera phone with ply tones for $60!!! shutup!!!

  • you guys talking down about this phone seem to think the world revolves around you. you forget that North America is not the only continent in the world. I'm guessing these phones are made for the 3rd world countries where their telephony infastructure isn't all that great and all they need is a simple, cheap phone.

  • nokia i'm getting more disapointed with you, this is old technology. no1 wants polyphonic we want MP3! we dont want monochrome screens we want colour pixels!

  • nokia what is going on? no colour screen? people want colour nokia!

  • ahauhahuauh even my maid does not have a cell phone like this

  • people shut up! after all this is a MOBILE PHONE. you buy a mobile phone to talk and send sms. you need mobility? buy a laptop, not all in one like n95 which haves a lot of functions but none of them work fine. 5mp camera. lol. buy a digital camera.

  • Personally, I think its cool that nokia are making phones that can be afforded by people in poorer countries. I think technology should be available to all. half of you guys that are laughing at nokia, have one in your pocket!

  • nokia must have access to area 51 and alien technology to make this achievement

  • yeeeeeeeeesssssss!that's what i am going to buy to my girlfriend at her birthday.she's going to be soooo excided!!!!well done nokia making a break up so easy with masterpiece of s..t like this

  • HTC Shift is nothing compared to this wonder of technology. although it is doing better in the ratings than HTC P6300 by a wide margin

  • talk about going back in time for 10 years =___= good job

  • I hope one day to afford this phone.

  • It is the Rolls Royce of Cell Phones. I'm gonna buy this the day it comes out.

  • Its nice low tear phone,i hope this new nice phone could replace all old low tear ,NOKIA, keep on this way,make the best for all.

  • WOW!!! what a BEATIFUL phone!!!! With so much feature too!!!!

  • Its much beter than its predecesor nokia 1110, 1110i, 1112 aside from that its battery life just dsame with its predecesor, so its will be a hit on the market, buy now!

  • New one is better than 2nd.. may the price also equal ... so better buy the new one... can use longer... hope this is the cheaper basic phone..

  • worth getting as a 2nd phone. For people who use more than one phone

  • Looks much better than the N73. This is a phone that will meet all my needs.

  • why couldn't i just buy a used 8310?it looks better than 1200.it only doesn't have polyphonic tones.but it's smaller and i like it more.

  • What does Built-in handsfree mean

  • The may have passed, but I cannot find out a 1200. By the way, what does a built-in handfree?

  • are we back to the 90`s?

  • The sound quality of the "in call" is awesome !!! Worthy as a second phone for emergencies.

  • Ok...Let me get this straight, Nokia designs a phone with no camera, no other features like mp3 player and so on...Ok, fine by me, but why the hell did Nokia make a phone in 2007 that has no features but looks like crap...I mean I like the idea of a mobile phone that is made only for talking but it shouldn't look like a f&^$^ng brick...If they made a simple phone at least make it look cool !!!

  • absolutely great, who needs something more? it turned out the that simplest and most basic phones are the most durable and long-lasting... thanks Nokia

  • Best Phone Ever! Much Better then any phone on the market.

  • This is what I look for after hopeless searching for 6310i! For music use iPod, for photos use some digital camera, for internet use a PC or LapTop . . . For SMS-ing and phoning this phone is what you need! 1200 Rulllezzzzz!

  • voice & sms and no doubt a good battery what more do you need

  • Nokia getting retro?

  • this phone IS a ROCK

  • i'm sure that this would become a great seller when it comes to mobile phones!!!because of it's unique design and out of this world features!!!rock on!!!

  • accept the fact that this phone really is a marvelous creation of nokia!!!like no other!!!

  • good lord what's wrong with you guys!? are you all insane? all other phone companies are fabricating a phone with good resolution (colored) with camera, mp3's and 3gs and all, and nokia created a phone that is 4 yrs behind.. and you're saying it rocks!! wake up pls!!!

  • this phone rock!!!!
