  • Mine's in his 9th year.... still works and I just had to change my first battery a couple of months ago. Best phone ever (i don't care of the colours going down, or trivial stuff) - wroks, accepts calls, accepts messages.

  • Once used to be mine. Unfortunately, mine was stolen after 2 weeks of use. From the 2 weeks, I can see that the build quality wasn't that good. The chrome lining started to wear off after the first week. I don't know why, I felt dissapointed with that. The camera quality was owkey though. For a very high price, it didn't have the features that all of its competitors have in that price range. I was fairly dissapointed but yeah...

  • ya ds 1 damn good fone.. il love to get another 1 since i lost 1 in da club

  • i have had one for five and a half years and it STILL WORKS . . . . only 2 days ago the hinge on the fold began to loosen . . . but it still works. i am a true nokia fan

  • This phone rocks. Just love everything about it! The stylish look, the devilish antenna, the smooth plastic finish, its folding design, everything! Its camera is also clear, and even if it has no blue-tooth and has a low memory, a good mobile phone like this one is hard to replace! Nokia 6101 is the BEST!

  • my gradation gift phone..haha

  • this is nice.. my 3rd phone..:) i gave to my cousin and until now.. it's alive and kicking.

  • Hello Randy... I just bought a Nokia 6101 from a friend,& read your post that you know how to add memory,& other improve- ments.My wife really like it,so maybe it's worth it. My email: [email protected] Thanks Randy Sincerely, Norman Hill

  • hi there,am having a problem with my incoming calls from friends etc...all my incoming calls are diverted to a mailbox in my phone...my Q is 'how can i possibly get rid of this mailbox number?' thanks and more power to you...

  • hi, i just wanna ask if what are the compatible drivers for 6110. i dont have the CD, and the data connector was lost!

  • To use the radio, you have to have the headset.

  • HI! How to used the FM Radio of mine Nokia 6101

  • This phone is displaying the calcelled letter G just near the signal bar and the problem I am having with is it does not accept calls or SMSes. Which steps needs to be followed in order to correct this problem?

  • This phone is very good, the battery life is super I only have to charge it's battery once per week, the camera quality is not that good but hey, what can you expect - its VGA! The memory is also quite small but as a basic phone, it's very reliable and it definately looks very stylish.

  • I recently dropped my girlfriend's (soon to be wifey) Nokia 6101 from a height of 3 feet and after that the display didn't work anymore. I've used it on several occassions and I find the phone's performance to be on the sluggish side. For example, sometimes when sending a text message it would take several seconds before the messsage gets delivered. On my Nokia 1201 it would take less than 1.5 seconds to send. Now I have to get my girlfriend's phone fixed because her phone is a bit on the flimsy side. Baby , this post is for you. LOVE YA!

  • this phone lasted i think for 2years with me. it fell off my hands few times and it survived.... its very efficient too, u got a camera and fm radio always avail in hand, just wished it has bluetooth to transfer pics easily. btw, i think i'll be replacing it bec the last time it fell it blacked out and didn't turn on again. well so much for its durability. i'm still hoping it can be fixed though. i would say it served me very well. so long my phone... do i recommend this phone? YES!

  • it`s the best phone i ever had.i love nokia!

  • this is d best phone i ever had.... i just love it.... it has fallen frm ma hand many tyms even in water.. bt nuthng happened 2 it

  • good phone, it works until today. this is the first cell phone that lasted for 1 year with me. usually my past cell phones don't last a year with me even though they still work.

  • farmate this mobile nokia 6101

  • Great phone, no problems- simple easy and it's an awesome phone

  • My first phone,and it's alive.

  • This is one of the best phones ever made. Easy to use and very simple. Have used it for 6 years and no Problems

  • had it for 5 years, no problems, have spilt evrytin nd atin on it nd its fine

  • This unit can't download java apps. bigger than 160kb. Sad.

  • I still have this phone it is durable even it was torn apart still i was able to put it back and change only the case. LOL

  • Hi i like this model but it's memory is very small i want to sell it to buy another phone with a larger memory

  • ive had this phone for years, and ive dropped it many times, including so bad it busted apart and it still goes. The front screen has a crack but still works and the volume button has just broke ... so sadly its time to replace .. it was a neg that it had no bluetooth, if it had bluetooth I would buy the same phone

  • I don't like it cause I don't have it..

  • I do not like it because of its little memory and 3G incompatibility.

  • whats the year model of this phone?

  • I don't like the keypad! Don't buy it if you text a lot. It'll spoil very fast

  • i dont like it have got no bluetooth Raymmond

  • i didnt like the absence of bluetooth. yes its a nice phone but its fat and ugly.

  • I had one of these before it got stolen and it`s one of the best phones I`ve ever had, in spite of it having a crappy camera and no bluetooth. The keypad was the best one I`ve ever used and it was so robust. Transfer downloads from mobile9.com from pc to phone via infra-red. It was such a great little phone.

  • hey how can i add more memory to this phone? thanks

  • hi now give me the ways that i can make my mobile 4mp camera , 4gb in a flash

  • This phone is well made. I bought one 3 yrs. back for a friend, and ended up going back for another. (for myself) I liked all the features it has: camera, video, REAL ringtones, two display screens, fm radio. . . lots of good stuff here. That phone is now history.

  • I have had this phone for 3 years now. Porbably the first phone I have ever had with zero problems. The only problems I have had are (all do to normal wear and tear) FM radio stopped working last month (super expensive cable wore out), and the screen is permanent scratches/indents from the keys).. BUT battery is still lasting great (VS my other phones I had), and I have dropped this thing countless times and never a problem.. Its gotten to the point I abuse it on purpose so I have a reason to upgrade! nope.. damn thing wont break!

  • I had one of these phones for a while but decided to sell it, it had a puny vga camera, and no bluetooth, also only 4mb of memory, I mean come on... otherwise it was great,batery very good,fast wap.couldnt get mms to work tho, or push-to-talk, very user friendly and quite good looking, tho my new phone is much lighter, has a 1.3mp cam with flash, and blutooth & 128MB RAM...oh its an LG choc. Its great, a very nice upgrade.

  • Anyone know anyone who knows how to get the Push to talk feature to work, it sounds really nifty if it works. Didnt they use that in Oceans 13 ?

  • Hi there to get the radio to work, plug in your stereo headset/hands free you got with it. It needs the hands free cable for the radio ariel.

  • You need to use the FM stereo headset. That is the only way I have ever used it.

  • _,this is a cute phone... i love it but it has no bluetooth...sori 4 me

  • How do I get the radio to work on this Nokia 6101?

  • can I restore images in nokia 6101? or is there a software?

  • It�s a good phone your camera is great in compare with others VGAcams but had no memory......

  • great easy phone to use. Pretty durable but after a while will get tons of scratches

  • i would like to add more memory to my nokia 1601 just tell me or maybe you could show me how

  • Ive had my 6101 for a year and a half now and it is a great phone its is true you can drop it and it wont break. It has quite a few scratches though but what the heck it still works 100%.

  • Please read this..This phone is the best it's even better than the N-series you can let it fall from plane and it still won't break maybe just a scratch but that's it let me see you do that with a N-series.i own this phone more than 2 years and it still works great i love the battery life it's great.i've put 2X 4gb memory cards in it I costume the phone i'm a little nerd you know a 3mp camera with optical zooming and a nikon flash and wifi if i could i would make it a touch but that's not possible build a intergrated gps and then at last a usb port for easy access to my Imac i did those things and i had to remove the miniscreen there was no room for those stuff so if you want to make your 6101 like my 6101 that's worth like a $$600 phone email me oke thanks

  • i had this phone(nikia 6101) and loved it till it just fell apart(literally) in my hands and at&t wouldnt honor their insurance agreement to replace the phone cuz they said it was discontinued...i am disappointed as i did like the way the phone worked, great sound, the way it was setup etc. guess tho they will remove this cuz what i have said but idc i have the right to my opinion and this is all fact and can be proven...makes me not ever want another nokia phone arghhh...wonder y they discontinued it so fast, maybe cuz it just fell apart and believe me i was very gentle with it...

  • My friend purchased one for me in Phillipine. The Phone is great except that there is no antenna signal and I could not make any call nor receiving calls on it. Please if you could help to get this phone operational, please advise.

  • i have a cellphone like this...i had it for almost two years...i really love the radio and the battery...a nice loudspeaker and it has a long life battery!!! i could recharge it once a week...i also like the camera...but the only problem is that it doesn't have any flash...my cellphone now is N73...it is really great! it has all features that i want...but i also like 6101... rating of 6101: 95% rating of N73: 100%

  • why doesn't this say what OS it uses?

  • yes this phone is quite good,my wife really love this but one thing i dont like is all of a sudden the front screen disappear and all the liquid display was of front panel was all over,rest all ok with the phone

  • Wel guys, rite nw i m on mobile net rite 4m nokia 6101. Just to tel u that its a really reliable device. A cool looking n easy to handle. Texting is as easy plus all the other features. Hey camera good too. Atleast 4m the pics i know that

  • i had this for about 2 yirs. the disadvantage is its a LOW memory. the camera is NOT GOOD.

  • yah, i really like this cp. thats why i need to buy a new one because my previous one has been destroyed. i love this phone and i want to buy that same phone again.

  • had it for over 2 years now, not a single problem with it yet. dropped it a few times, once in shallow water, still truckin. battery life isn't an issue for me, i don't talk much. texting is SO easy, i've tried texting on other brands and no other phones have such intuitive controls, it's so easy to learn! nokia 4 life!

  • I have had this phone for 3 years and I LOVE IT!! I know everyone's raggin on it for it's memory but to me it just means i have to delete my text inbox every two weeks or so which really isn't that big of a deal anyway. I've dropped this phone countless times and it is seriously a tank! The battery lasts forever, I hardley ever charge it. The camera is ok and the video quality is what I would expect from a phone. All in all this is the best phone I've ever owned even if it doesn't have all the bells and wistles that other phones have. I have a digital camera, a video camera, and a mp3 player - I needed a phone, and that's what I got. I would recommend this phone to everyone.

  • id say it is a good phone exept for the bluetooth part...and the sad thing is that the paint comes of quickly very good phone!A+++++ and people, whats wrong with copying? i mean no one would notice because "the" samsung phone is the E250... and maybe samsung is happy that other phone companies admire their phones!

  • Ive had this phone for two years, and it was truly wonderful. Memory is low, but battery life is excellent. I must say i was disappointed when it broke, it is now completely falling apart, but i was very satisfied with it, for the time i used it.

  • Had this phone for 2 years. The best thing is the battery life one whole day of radio and i will only loose 1 bar maybe. Limited Memory. Keypad is easy and fast to SMS. Looks nice but the edge bottons are wearing away T___T

  • Sick Phone, BUY ONE!!, it is crazy good, but low memory all the time:/

  • have had phone for 2 years- no complaints at all. Battery life is good. Camera not that great.Cover only begining to show wear.Keyboard great for sms. really easy to operate,even for older folk. Radio great.

  • The 6101 is very very simple! It is a cute phone, buh it got such a limited memory...i only took a few pics and already the memory is full =( buh the battery life is good! i only have to charge it once a week =)

  • Pros: crisp f.m. Stereo, classic design, answer flip. Cons: fragile flex, short battery life. Rating: 60%

  • it has low capability! the flip cover is easy to lose,always have limitations.

  • it's not good! the battery is very easy to empty! there is a limitations in messages, doesn't have loud pseaker! the flip top option is easy to lose!

  • its nice and affordable,i have one.

  • I bought this unit a second hand in Qatar 2006 but until now it's really okey no problem yet encounter. What may concern now is,the cover has scratched and hope there's a solution for that.

  • I have the same problem too, my husband bought me one and after 2 months using it, its stated making a loud noise seems something is wrong with the speaker. No repair shop is able to fix the problem to make matters worst we live in Jamaica and he brought the US

  • To All: I suggest Nokia 6233 if you have a budget, , it rocks with all it's features, hehehe, it has an stable OS, durable, 2 MP cam, VGA video recording, take note VGA!!!!, astonishing, stereo sound, take note again 3D stereo sound!!!! Awesome, and memory ecandable up to 2GB!!!! Yeah!!! and many more!! radio, 3G for fast web browsing, friendly user interface, fast menu, and QVGA display, very bright and legible under direct sunlight, YEAH!!!

  • i am currently using this phone.. at first it was okay but after a few months i realize it was a waste of money since it had limited memory, it just got broken yesterday and i haven't figured out why..

  • This phone is a waste. Limited memory and after awhile the screen starts to blank off

  • i just bought this fone last year frm nz and all of a sudden the reception wasnt working,so i cannot find any place to repair the fone now

  • i have this phone its great but only memory limitation

  • Great phone,limited space.What a pitty.

  • It's a pity you cannot get the accessories for this 'cel' in the USA ; such as car charger,usb connection to computer etc.

  • Ibought my 6101 second hand from Hong Kong, never had any trouble, great simple phone.

  • idk i guess im not lucky like everyone else because my battery doesnt even last a whole day

  • This phone has no real problems with advertised features. However, in this day the features are lacking compared with the current market. The camera and memory is a let down. Paint on my phone is rather scratched but that is due to my mishandlement not the phone's design. However, a problem with the phone's design is that the keys do scratch the screen. Hope this helps somewhat. -John

  • hi im a friend os someone! yes i have friends...anyway her phone is screwed majorly and it lost a lot of the paint on the outside really quickly ( like a day ) she feels strongly about it and is still quite emotional. IM WARNING YOU DONT BUY IT.. you'll be left in tears like her haha...seriously it gets ruined very easily and is not worth the money. from $150- $99 SCAM..please dont by it you wont regret it if you dont. Thank you for listening to my rant...xx

  • I got this phone two years ago. Battery is great, i like text, as others have been saying obviously major memory problems and not very good camera quality. And yes, take it from me, the flip DOES break easily. But I really like it though, s'been a good phone to me I think.

  • ....WEll, for me... THIS FONE IS GREAT! The design still outbounds other kinds of phones which only looks grea tin the outside but screen inside is a crap. I love this fone^_^

  • the battery is more than great..but it says it can play wav format but till now i dont know how ..(i've had it for 2 years now) it scratches very easily but i like it

  • they need to make the phone a hole lot stroger. I will never buy one again for work. I plan on geting a few of them when my kids get older. they would make good phones for a family plan. that is about all i thick they are good for

  • i have this phone for 5 days and i think i don't like this fhone,i cnat even faund aut how to chenge the light!the light is gon in 5 sec,please help me somebady?

  • The battery charge holds up forever, and the text is good, but the camera is horrible and it has practicaly NO storage space. The paint came off quickly and overall the phone is not that great.

  • This phone is okay, the battery life is awesome though. I text a lot and I only charge it once or twice per week. I've had it for 2 yrs and it never died on me, never froze, never shuts down by itself. I do admit the camera sucks though.... And low memory!! And the flip thing does not break easily!! Get your facts straight people!!

  • I got this phone 2 years ago and it is still fine. The paint comes off easily if you don't handle it with care and I don't like the fact that it has less storage space, doesn't have bluetooth and you can't zoom in or out when taking pictures. I dont recommend people to buy this phone unless they don't care about the features. I regret getting it and im so bored of it now that I am going to get a new one.

  • i've got two friends who have this phone and in both of them the flipper mechanism of the phone broke quickly.

  • i got this phone for christmas last year. it started as a great phone the camera was good the screen was clear. but then after about a month the top of the phone scratched really bad. just recently the mini screen broke which was bad. the memory is crap and the photos have turned bad. the recordings are really dodgy and there is no blurtooth and the infarated doesnt work. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE you will regret it and it went down to $99 from $150 but now its back up to $150 its so not worth it.

  • Had this phone for a year and 3 months.. Was a nice, simple phone to use but the features were VERY bad. Low memory, bad camera, no music player, slow operating system.. I have now upgraded to SE W850 and that is SO MUCH better! If you want a good phone to call and sms (it has a great keypad) then this the right one. However, there are newer models out there!

  • very very very super mobile boss? but no blue tooth.

  • i think it the luck of the draw with this phone cause i own 2 of em, i have them for about six months and the battery life is awsome on one of them/black and the other same phone/white it last a day and the black last about 2-3 days i usually switch between them during the week maybe it's just the battery reception is good in the city /elevator/basment only a few drop calls in the entire 6 months ...8 out of 10 for battery

  • does anyone know the keypad promts to save phone contacts to my sim memory. my screen blew (both) and i can't read a thing. thanks muchly team!

  • can anyone tell me how to set the clock as a screensaver on the mini screen plz...thanks

  • I'd also like to add that this is one tought phone. It went thru 2 yrs of me constantly dropping it and the pieces coming out. Even though I have another phone, I still use it for camera purposes. :D

  • Ahhh, I had this phone for a couple of years. It was good to me. I loved this phone. Unfortunately I dropped it too much. It's really simple to use, cute design, and the camera is excellent. You can take pix and email it to your computer. The picture quality is really amazing for a camera phone. Good price too.

  • I purchased this phone in New Zealand Mid November 2006 and it's been a pretty good phone for me, it's treated me well through the slight neglect I have given it and it's works quite well. I don't like the fact there is hardly any memory in it and it can't be expanded which is a shame as I usually take a lot of pictures, but then why should I take a lot of pictures when the camera quality is below average! It doesn't even have flash. The design is pretty classic and it looks pretty great. I like the hot keys which is a bonus for me to access my inbox. Just recently I broke the flip thing on my phone which makes it so difficult to write a text with out the top of my phone collapsing on my thumb. The battery power is alright and I've been able to withstand very lengthy conversations. If you do want to buy this phone I would recommend it as it isn't that complicated and very simple. But this isn't a phone for the very patient person as it does lag quite a lot. Right now I am planning to upgrade my phone and I'm thinking about purchasing the v3x from Motorola, it's a reliable phone and I don't regret this purchase! I'll give it a 6/10 There are better phones out there for equal or lesser value that gives you more value for money than the 6101.

  • This phone is the best ever. I love it.

  • Here's the best advice you'll ever receive about this phone: Simply, do not buy it. It's not worth it at all.

  • my phone has been acting really weird at first when i got it but ever since a month or two ago my phone will just automatically go to camera on radom then i cant exit out of it i have to restart the phone 2 or 3 times for the buttons to work and half the time they don't so i end up not being able to use the phone. this phone is a peoce of crap do not buy it. it has a lot of problems and they take terrible pictures with the camera.

  • Bought this phone in 2005 and now its 2007 its still fine. The problems that it has is switching off the display and sometimes the camera does not work

  • nokia need to stop by my house and i will show them how to make a great phone!!!!!!!!!!

  • gawd, this is like experiencing hell. the availabilities are so freakin` poor. at last, i`m done with this:) my days with this are over!!!=)) haha. to all you guys, DON`T EVEN THINK ABOUT GETTING THIS PHONE:))

  • i bought this hpone for $220 and expected more from it. i am really disapointed with it. the camera is crap and it has mp3 but can only hold half a song battery life is bad and no bluetooth! before this phone i had a sony ericsson k300 and it was perfect. no probs with it at all and i had it for 3 years

  • this is the nokia phone ever made from the lousiest materials. the paint and the plastic parts easily chip off in just few days after buying. don't ever get this model. i think nokia owes the consumers of this model an unconditional refund of their money.

  • This Is Such A Bad Phone,, I Can Not Keep Mine Closed For Longer Than About 1 Hour Withi Out The Screen Blanking Out Whan I Open It,, Takes Ages For It To Work!! Very Slow,, I Can Text Faster Than It Can Write. Memory Is Crap Cant Hold To Many Photos Or Songs. Silly Phone,, Nokia Can Do Soo Much Better!!

  • I love my Nokia 6101, but 12 hours battery life after 6 months? This is ridiculous, come on Nokia, I've always had nokias and you can do so much better than this! I don't make calls, I don't use the camera, I don't play games, I only send text messages, and I do understand that sending about 150 to 200 text messages a day can wear out a battery, but 12 hours battery life??? There has to be something wrong with it! Other than that, phone is great, wouldn't change it!

  • Can I please throw my Nokia 6101 out of the window. I have it on vibrate which is fine, but it will from time to time stop the ring voloum so of course I so not hear any calls. Also the camera is silent when I take a photograph again this keeps happening, I have followed the instructions from Nokia but the problems are still there....helllllllllllppppppp thanks

  • I like this phone.When i got nothing to do, I use the radio Fm.Tha's so funny!

  • I like this phone.When i got nothing to do, I use the radio Fm.Tha's so funny!

  • I bought this phone from a shop in Italy. A frien of mine bought it from romania. I was surprissed to find out that thhe one boughed from Romania had broken in a matter of weeks. I now own 2 phone a Nokia 6101 whit a schrached screen from the keybord but with a good battery and a Samsung E250 who dissapoints me with every day that passses. So Nokia 6101 is a good phone becaouse the battery can hold until 6 days, and the fm radio is really good. For the people that complain didn't look at the phones chart before u bought it??....

  • i think its cute im afraid to make it sira its nice and hmmmm i dont have any negative coments 4 dis cp as of now

  • this mobile sucks so bad, i've had it for just over 6 months. it hangs itself up after like 3 minutes. Thank goodness it's still under warenty also the memory is sooooooooooooo low! my advice = go for a better phone. you can do WAY better

  • I bought this phone a while ago, and im not very pleased with it, it hasnt lasted very long, its freezing, going all fuzzy, turning itself off.... etc.. also it doesnt have much memory space for photos/videos.

  • stupid...... i cant use my infrared...it wont function...damn.....can anyone help me on how to use this stuff?????

  • wtf!!! i had this phone b4 n i strongly advise u ppl out there not to buy dis phone..don let da so called fm radio or watsoever mp3 thingy fool you ...u noe why??da memory is only 4.4mb...u can't even keep a song with a higher quality..!!useless!!

  • Crap, bought it Friday... And sometimes my screen turns white when I open it. Dunno why, and it scares the crap out of me O_o I'm just a student, with not much money, and I don't want to buy a new one... :'(

  • Not bad, but not that great either. Average on all fronts. One thing to note is that the keypad tends to scratch the screen over time.

  • I have a little more space to take pictures though the camera is like UGH!!! It's cute and small, not good for busy people as it has really LOW memory trust me! Not good for people who likes music, no Mp3 player for music unless u can make do with a radio. Only good for people that will only use it for simple stuff like calling and msging

  • I got about 11 months use out of mine until the hinges went to crap and I would turn it upsidedown and it would just fall open. Within weeks of owning it,the buttons scratched the heck out of the faceplate. The phone got poor reception where other phones through the same provider got good reception.I wasnt thrilled about its very low memory...no bluetooth either. This phone might be all right for a senior citizen who is not going to put much wear and tear on it.Not recommended for kids or hard core gamers.Camera was crap also.

  • i've had this phone since october 2006, and in general, i'm not disappointed with it. sure, the memory is really low, but i wasn't aware that it wouldn't be sufficient (hard to know until you use it). now i know what to look for in my next phone - it will be a nokia again, though. the 6101 is easy as pie to use (love the nokia operating menu/system), the screen is very clear, call quality is really good, fm radio feature is cool (need headphones b/c they serve as antenna) and i haven't had any problems with it even though i've dropped a bunch of times. i'm not disappointed that it doesn't have bluetooth or mp3 capabilities because it says on any web page or even the box what it has. if you want a great phone with a lot of features, this nokia isn't for you (but they do have a lot of other models that will most likely work - i'd stick with nokia, they are great). but if you'd like a simple phone that WORKS WELL and you only want the camera to take a picture now and again, this is the phone for you.

  • well.. this is a bad comment for nokia 6101.. i got this phone last month and i'm very pleased with it. but when i used it later on, i found out that it doesn't have BLUETOOTH that i needed the most and has low memory! 4.4?! what the heck? i like this phone just because of the radio. it's very simle!

  • Screen scratched within days...the buttons scratched it when it was closed. Godd phone for kids or older ppl. But too basic, and loooow memory. Cute though.

  • this phone is finney haddock!

  • ok yeah, i was wrong kinda! Well, its okay i guess but like everyone says the memorey is just eughh i dont want to talk about it!!! I only took 20 pictures and i cant take any more!!!!! The messenging is fine... but all it is, is the memory!!!!! I think i am gonna turn crazy!

  • ok yeah, i was wrong kinda! Well, its okay i guess but like everyone says the memorey is just eughh i dont want to talk about it!!! I only took 20 pictures and i cant take any more!!!!! The messenging is fine... but all it is, is the memory!!!!!

  • i havnt had mine 4 a year yet and the front screen brokw and the buttons froze

  • thos fone is da bomb!!!!!i luv it!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ummmmm im gonna get this fone 4 my b'day.....after reading some opinions, im a little turned off. Is it true that it only has 4MG??????Thats crap. I want a good fone that'll last long...good features.....and looks good. If i change my mind, ill get an LGU880.

  • not a good phone! - had build problems requring warranty repair with at least half of the 20 units we use - turns off by itself, stops ringing (have to remove the sim card to fix), has very poor reception (from exactly the same place where other gsm phones have good reception!), tells the network is unavailable when it is...pity, as the design and other features have potential.

  • this is a bad fone dont expect your nokia 6101 to last more than a year!!!

  • it's so good but i want to have its free memory higher!!

  • whay this phone did not play sound mp3 when call me someone

  • i had this phone about a mere week now and nothings wrong with it. Just bought a case for it so the phone won't get scratched only about $5.00 at the market.

  • it�s a memoryless phone. it�s not possible to save many things inside because the memory is very bad.

  • I've had two Nokias of this model and both of them has been fine as it comes to being functional - but the screen gets scraped! For the first one I had I thought it was me being careless but same thing on my second one. Scrapes comes from the numeric keyboard. And I friend of mine bought the 6103 - same thing. Screen gets scraped after a short while.

  • i have a problem...mine only has aproximately 600 KB of memory...is it playing tricks on me?

  • this phone is pretty crap. i've had it for quite a while now and i stopped liking it after the first week or so. it has absolutley crap features. i bought it when it was quite expensive. BAD DECISION! even though it's about $129 now i still say you shouldnt buy it there are much better phones to buy.

  • I highly advise you not to buy this phone. Okay so I've had this phone for a year and 3 months. At first it was tolerable, but then I got these scratches on the internal screen that came out of nowhere, probably from my thumbnail when I opened the flip. So now the screen beholds a ton of scratches. The small part of the antenna has chipped off. So now the antenna is just ugly. The black part below the internal screen is peeling off. At first I thought that part was plastic, but then I later had to find out the hard way(the peeling) that it is a sticker or paint or something. The outer part has quite a few scratches and chipped off pieces, and I've only dropped this phone at most 4 times. The back part near the antenna is cracking. The silver part on one side of the hinge is cracking. The hinges are 100% loose. I don't even have to use my thumb to open it. I can just like hold it upside down and it'll open. I have to press the buttons harder now, probably from texting so much. This phone has super limited memory. I regret buying this phone. You should only buy this phone if: -You will never ever ever ever drop it because that is when things start to come apart. -You are a boring person, and you do not like to customize your phone with downloaded ringtones. -You are cheap and old-fashioned. -Or if you like phones that break easily.

  • hate this phone it doesnt have bluetooth, hardly any memory, buttons scratch screen, poor camera quality, hardly any memory storage, bad quality voice recorder and a lot more my tip: dont buy this phone

  • i hav had this phone for about a year and the moment i got it i hated it. The Good: has a radio big clear buttons camera quality is ok The Bad: after a while the buttons scratch on the screen aerial gets very annoying only takes about 20 photos, more if you delete everything on the phone videos can only go for around 1 minute hardly any memory, only about 3 megabytes in total which is not much very slow to load

  • I bought the nokia 6101 from t-mobile as a prepaid phone I had it for about a month it was great but now I turn it on and won't stay on. but when it did work I loved the radio the signal was great if I can't get It to work I might go buy another one.

  • I currently own this phone. I got it in June of 2006. I personally think it's an okay phone. It has excellent picture quality. The things that I dislike about this phone is that it doesn't have Bluetooth, it only has Infrared, it hardly has enough memory, it only has 3MB of memory that's shared. When you are near the phone when it rings and you answer it, it makes an odd noise as your ringtone is going off. The things I like are the camera, the ability for the phone to play mp3 files (but the sound quality isn't great), and picture messaging.

  • PLM :|

  • I have been very disappointed with this phone. After 2 months the volume control broke while stuck on high. I took it back but it could not be fixed. Now there is something wrong with the hinges so when I flip it open, I get strange pixels that turn bright white so I cannot read what is onscreen. Of course there is the much mentioned memory problem and no bluetooth. In summary, very poor quality phone made to last about 6 months.

  • You can transfer your photo with IRDA. Very easy,just buy irda and download "nokia pc suite" that all!!

  • This phone has got the worst memory ever!! Dont buy it

  • Hi im FONE..LUVER and im 14 years old My step-brother has this fone and he has had little trouble with it except from the recording system its really crap and you cant hear it. i want to get this fone in white. i mean it has all he stuff i want but not blue tooth. it has infa red and will plug into my mums laptop i don't know if i want to get it because all the comments are turning me off it. i recently had the sagem myC5-2v and it is the worst fone i have ever had and i have had bricks. LOL .let me know if this fone is worth while for a 14 year old :) write to me down here \/\/\/\/

  • hey! i luv this phone ALOT! never had problems with it, but i was wondering, how do i transport my photos onto the computer with it???? plzz let me knw, i really need to print out the photos in it!!

  • I had my N6101 since Dec. 2005, i enjoy so much using it even though limited memory, it serves for all my purposes, i can surf the net any time i wanted to,took pictures,videos and send to my email address and finally transfer to flash drive.However, when I buy the CA42 cable and synchronize it with the PC using windows98 is not supported,(even though after installing its cable and a modem driver) there is a need to update pc operating system to windows XP to install the PC suit.

  • hi ppl Well ive had this fone for about 4 or 5 months now and i dont like it very much theres hardly any memory and im a busy person.Theres no bluetooth,the recording system is a load of ****** ****,the screen is to small,polyphonic ring tones? get with the times,the pics suck,its alright for phoning some1,scatches easy...too easy and the fone is a load of crap:( thanks for listening L8ers

  • could someone tell me its Battery capacity.

  • I've had this cell for 13 months and I am so done with it. I'm switching it to Nokia N91. I like the design of it, it's easy to use, but the memory is lousy! It only holds up something like 250 messages (pathetic!). It is a great cell for your granny b/c she gets about 250 messages in a decade. She will die before she has to delete them. So it is a great basic cell if you don't need any special features. Bye bye my dear 6101!

  • I read opinions about this phone on the gsmarena before I bought it. And I didn't want to listen, because I saw it like the most wonderful cell ever! But I was so WRONG :(( Now, after only 6 months I hate it, I want to sell it and I am searching for another! :(( Low memory, lousy camera, low features... The only good thing is the battery lasting 7 days...

  • This fone is great! although it rang in midle of me class! The tones are good! I had this for over 5 months got it frm me dad. Overall this fone did a briliant job!the features are really wonderful. I dropped it twice nothin hapened. Its a easy basic fone to handle and pretty sleek too!!! Its also an affordable price i must say!!! People BUY

  • Heya Ppl, I had this phone for 13 months and overall I say it did its job pretty well. Good battery, fantastic keypad, good call quality, highly reliable! Its a basic phone for ppl mainly to sms alot and maybe take a few pictures here and there. This seemed to be nokia's aim for this phone so i don't see why people should be complaining. If you want something highly fancy go get an N73 or something. The memory and no bluetooth, it caters to customers who don't need that. While I used it I loved it but hav now gone and bought a W850i since I needed something more upmarket with more features. One Downside maybe that I found was the front black part of the phone caught lots of fingerprints and scratched easily. Otherwise its an AWESOME basic but HIGHLY RELIABLE phone! :)

  • this fone is the best fone ever i love it and i got the pink one over christmas it has so much style cause when I'm with it all the cute boys look at me or mayby its just my good looks anyway it is so hot its such a good fone oh yeah I'm single I love boys.

  • cute form almost bought in Ghana .

  • yeh ive had this fone for like i dont know how long maybe 8 months? its got pretty much everything that u need the only bad thing is the memory but wat can u do? the nokia 6103 helps u with the memory so yeh peace..

  • It is not a Very Reliable phone. The Memory is used up so quickly, and sometimes while browsing through photos it tends to turn off.

  • For Jessie: the infrared spot is in the right side of the phone, just bellow the button for GDA.

  • My mother bought one and is a full cellphone...enought dont have bluetooh and memory card...I'd like buy this phone for me if possible.....

  • i have this phone no problems exept no bluetooth, the number pad scratches the screen and not enough memory

  • cant find the infared spot just cant locate it.

  • Its a good design.. I hav been using it 4 9months.the phone doesnt hav enough memory. Moreover it gets scratched easily.

  • wtf is this phone ? wow it can read mp3 with 4mb memory, verrrry clever step (:

  • I've had the phone for one month now and I'm very pleased with it. Battery life is good (mine golds in for about 5 days with moderate use of calls, texting adn radio), it's solid (dropped it on the ground and had no problem), reception and signal are very good, actually, I think the best I've had and this woulds be my 5th phone. With Samsung and Sony Ericsson often had signal problems or the phone would just switch off during a conversation.I think it's actuallt the fact that it has an external antenna that makes the signal better than with in-built antennas. Sure, memory is not great but I believe this phone was made for people looking for ballance between looks and functionality. It really hepls if you buy the USB cable. So, you can transfer useful data from the computer (such as MP3s), delete the things you really don't use and transfer the pictures so you can make better use of the memory space. I would recommend the phone because it's well-ballanced and it's good deal for it's price. Besides, it looks really chic and the keyboard feels incredibly comfortable.

  • The radio is great, the internet is great in WAP but not in HTML, the key pad is great with t9 (I posted this from my nokia 6101), the infrared works well with many devices, one of the best VGA camera you can find (it beats some megapixel images). I love that you can listen to the radio while your on the internet and you can close the fold and it does not return to the idle mode. I hate that the camera and screen resolution is lower than most phones and it only displays 65+ thousand colors. I hate that it doesn't have bluetooth or a memory card slot, but most of all I hate the crapy video recorder. Most people say that a phone has a crapy video recorder because they saw a phone with a better recorder. But viewers, this is the truth! the video recorder is crapy. 1. It looks black and white (I am not exaggerating, its very very dull). 2. motion is not smooth, it is very jerky. 3. Alot of square boxes. 4. The audio and motion are not together, you will hear first then see it happen. The resolution is subQcif 128*96 pixels. The nokia 6230 has the same video resolution and it is way better than all nokia 6101s' recorder. I will be replacing this with the nokia 6131 then later replace that with the nokia n95. I recommend it if you just want to talk to people, take a couple of photos and listen to the radio. If you want more, dont look at this phone. You have been warned. Happy New Year!

  • I have had one of these for about 7 months now its ok but not enough memory i mean why have MP3 with only 3.5MB memory! and screen weak i dropped mmine and the front screen is cracked and can some one tell me where 2 get a data cable. PS i bought mine for 199$ in australia

  • I dont recomend this phone to other coz it's memory is too short and the screen is easy to scratch and it dosn't have an digital zoom i nid txtmate my number is +639102382096 i'm an handsome filipino

  • I have had my Nokia 6101 since July, and I have been disapointed with it. Like what other people have mentioned, the screen scratches to easy and there isnt much memory (which is annoying when taking heaps of photos). Taking photos and SMSing is the only stuff it does well, even though when it takes pictures, it takes ages to take it. I do not recomend it, even though I havent had it for that long, I want a new phone already. Happy New Year everyone.

  • I just got the pink one and I love it it is so cute and I love the way its not crap like those vk phones this fone is the best and every one should have 1

  • I have this phone for over a year now and, for the last 6 months, the transmission didn�t work well. I don�t hear what others say ans they do not hear me back. So, the basic feature of the phone simply stopped working...

  • i have had this phone for a few months. it has a VERY bit of memory and the mobile goes very slow. i would not really recommend this phone

  • I would never buy a LG KG225...6101 is much better. At least better then the LG KG225...

  • I find it cute!Really cute! And I don't even know why...hehehe And I love the FM radio... :-)

  • Do u guys think that this phone is worth AUS$150.00??? Im not sure if i should get it but i think i mite get the ROXY 2650 which is AUS$99 or the LG KG225 which is AUD$69 Please contact me if u have anything that may change my decision -------------------- all those phones suck

  • This is the best fone eva

  • This phone really sucks it has no bluetooth or no memory! 4mb what u gona do with that? I would say the older nokia 3650 is alot better.not by size but 4 features. My comment dont buy this phone if u are into downloading pictures,sounds.videos or games thanx

  • Do u guys think that this phone is worth AUS$150.00??? Im not sure if i should get it but i think i mite get the ROXY 2650 which is AUS$99 or the LG KG225 which is AUD$69 Please contact me if u have anything that may change my decision

  • i dont like d fon really not suited for my personality its like brands used for korean tele novelas isnt it

  • how can i send a link from this web-site with my favorite phone to my fried??? thank you

  • how to interface this piece with PC??? i want the data to be transfered from my phone to computer. i won't go in for an infrared option though, please suggest some software besides PC suite for this.

  • ok ok...maybe i was a bit to strong on the poor old 6106 down there yeh that was my post lol anyway this fone is okay despite every thing said on my last comment i mean it still pretty good for a person who doesnt want a high tec fone who just wants a simple easy to use fone

  • i got this fone about 4 months ago ... had to get it after people kept prank callling me on my nokia ngage..so i went and bought it its okay but no blue tooth is really a down grade and basically no memory? 30mb waste in a couple of hours after loading some mp3 songs on AND THE infared takes for ever to get songs of! oh and a word of advice buy your self an cover protecter you will need it the screen scartches easily! thats why im ditching this mobile and for chrismas 2006 ill buy my self a d600 DO NOT I REPAT DO NOT BUY THIS FONE!!!!!

  • Abraham: USB cable is a same thing as datacable, so yes there is suitable datacable for this. :)

  • i don`t know why the phone is slow on carrying out instructions and it should have bluetooth. can it be able to operate on two sim cards? I don`t know why I can`t use any other phone but nokia.

  • I just buy Nokia 6101 does it have a data cable?

  • it is relible

  • i actually own this phone, its a POS! dont buy it, theres a reason why alot of carriers will offer this phone to you for free. its crap. i noticed this site this phone features PTT and it doesnt. the only thing decent is the camera, which takes along time to actually take the picture. and the problem with that is there isnt enough memory to actually hold alot of pictures :( it is a basic phone. easy to navigate and the radio is rather nice. but overall... this phones a dump ion the toilet. its slow and horrible. i wish i didnt get this phone, even though it was free.

  • the mobile is very user friendly, the cam is basic, so is most of the menu if you are someone who just wants to talk, sms and take a few photos then buy it, but it's more for young teenagers, boys or girls It's a nice phone but for me i need something with lots of memory, bluetooth etc

  • what do you say?should i buy it or not?is it worthy?

  • Its a classy phone.Bought one but cant activate the radio coz Icant get to activate PTT. Any help? Or send me the manual in English

  • Nokia is good, but i want to blast my Nokia 6101 with vital confidential information that was stolen by anuthorised person. IMEI No. 358362007306139 0049033 6417182491924 Item No. 0049033

  • great phone 5 stars

  • well... i had this chance to own one... but life sucks..it was stolen from me...duh!

  • i dun c how da buttons can scratch da screen unless u're pokey buttons! LOL! and yea da batt life is kinda short. but da keypad is comfortable. memory is small, no doubt. but still, it's depends on da user. y bother complaining if u CHOSE & BOUGHT it out of the hundreds of models available?

  • i have this phone and it is pritty dodgy, the buttons scratch the screen, the camera is crap and it has no memory

  • The battery life is too short ! The filip has lots of problem and sometimes i lost my full antena ! its hang alot! Im not satisfy with this nokia phona. What happen to you nokia ! sometimes i really appriciate my samsung a200 !!!!

  • do u think the pictures u take r good or crap ... duz it look good like a camera??

  • "I dont want to lose all my numbers! Anyone got any ideas? Thanks" Hook it up to your PC via nokia fone tools and take all your contacts off so at least u got those.

  • Hello Guys, can anybody tell me if this phone has "grouping" ? i mean can i assign different ring tone for each group of poeple ?? thx a million in advance

  • the memory sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Nokia 6101 is a great phone but it would be much better with Bluetooth and memory card slot. I advice you not to buy this phone, the memory is too low. (2.5 mb) They should upgrade it with flash, Bluetooth, memory card slot, visual radio, tv out support, 256k colors, 5 megapixel camera, autofocus, streaming video, composer, 1 gb internal memory, better video recording quality like the e350 and wi-fi

  • i had a 6280 and hated it now own the 6101 and love it think this phone is great

  • i have had this fone 4 about 2 1/2 months. works pretty well but not enough memory!!!!

  • it has no "distribution list". i don't know why but i wish it had. you can't send a text message to a group. why oh why ?

  • Okay, I agree with you all here that the memory on this phone is WAY too low. Usually when I try and send something and need more memory it prompts me to delete stuff. Well tonight, it didnt and for some reason its not doing anything but freezing up. HELP! I took the battery out and put it back in and its still not working. I dont want to lose all my numbers! Anyone got any ideas? Thanks

  • This is a great phone all the feautures that i need is here except got the low memory :(

  • PROs: stylish, big bottoms, good battery hours. CONs: Slow (push bottom and wait for it jump to rnext screen), drop twice and need replacement.

  • Nokia 6101 is a girls' phone. I like the menu a lot and the photos. But the memory is too little and also it scratches easily, unfortunately. :(

  • this is a very good phone, the only problem is the low memory, but the rest it's great

  • very little memory.. colour quality bad.. camera cannot zoom.. takes horrible pictures.. lots of bad points about this phone.. for everyone thinking about buying this phone.. i seriously suggest u dont..

  • I love the feel of this phone in my hand and it's very easy to use the keypad etc, but i have to say the LACK OF MEMORY SUCKS!!! I couldn't believe how little memory this phone has. After about a week or so i was totally bored and very disappointed with it! Shame on you, Nokia, for making a phone with such a tiny memory!!!

  • To everyone who has complained about this phone............ Why buy a phone that has no memory, an unbelievably bad vga camera, and absolutely no features and then complain about these facts. For $200 AUD what do you expect? In the future I suggest you find out a little bit about a phone before you purchase it. It may stop you from finding out that it is crap AFTER you have already paid for it. THIS PHONE IS FOR COOL OLD GRANNIES THAT DONT KNOW HOW TO USE A PHONE LET ALONE A CAMERA PHONE!!!!! Maybe next time splurge a little and dont buy a featureless phone. Unless that is exactly what you want...... And if that is the case.... STOP CRYING!!!

  • Lots of problems, software, low memory, low recording capacity, i regreted buying it, i have dumped mine, after four months of purchase. It's really painful.I don't know how to work it anymore

  • I have had this phone and It sucks big time I mean low memory The camera is good and the mp3 ringtones are good but I have only had this half a year and it's falling apart the camera does not even work anymore youl be lucky if it lasts all year dont buy this phone 550%

  • i forgot to say the most important thing; do not buy data cable for this phone

  • i can define this phone in a single word;it sucks! and i mean that, low memory so you must delete your pictures or ringtones very often. camera and radio are the features who save this phone appereances

  • i have a plan 2 to avail this phone. can anyone tell me how much will it cost??i really find this phone cute and handy, that is why next month i will purchase one.. haha. i hope this phone will last. this is going to be my third phone and i hope this wont be stolen like what happen to the first two..

  • this phone i like the size , so i bought this phone. but... after that i found this phone memory is too too too small small. it not enought . if hv chage to upgrade this phone memory is better. Cos the memory, so sometime it make me want sold out this phone. Most of my friend also feel like that

  • well i enjoy my 6101 when im bored its right there 2 entertain me

  • This phone is cool, nice software but no memory!

  • hi , Can anybody tell me which data cable does this phone support? thanx

  • The worst thing I�ve ever done is to buy this phone. I bought in June and I�ve sent to the tecnic service twice (2 months without phone). It doesn�t charge the battery.The guarantee in Spain sucks!!

  • i got this phone a few weeks ago and when i try to sign onto AIM, it says "request not completed, try again" can anyone tell me how to fix it so that i can sign onto aim? thanx.

  • I bought this phone about a month ago, I'm pretty disappointed with the memory! Memory is everything, if you have bigger memory then u can have an mp3 player, a MPX camera etc. but I suppose it's my fault for not researching phones enough b4 I bought one! PS there is no way to turn on/off the photocall if ur tralking about the phonebook! (as far as I know anyway!)

  • How to activate the Photocall function? Thanks,

  • Well, the phone is okey, i just bougt this week, but it lacks bluetooth. pls if you have any information to give me on how to use it efficiently like said i bougt it new. this my email address 08036426679. the price in Nigeria is 22,800.00 naira.

  • maannn...nokia step yo game up!!!SE is crushing all of yo fones...they already made an upgrade of the se k600...an this fone is pathetic...sounds sucks,memory sucks,camrea sucks lil,display crappiest...dont get me started bout closin the fone...every single time wen its closed the screen rubs on da pad thus scratchin it...an this battery of yours plz...it only lasted 2 days...theres this sound that comes every time u try callin someone...if i can even make,this fone is always droppin out...

  • Da fone looks great, but it doesn't have bluetooth and the memory is way 2 small.

  • whi u make phones with photo/video camera and only 4mb????????is understanding....shame on u :(

  • While browsing the web, there is a plus symbol with additional links to the page. But when I select it nothing happened. Can some one please tell me what to do!

  • I have this phone in about 8 month and it's greate i don;t have any problems with it...the only problem is the low memory...the camera it's grat for outside picture for the indor picture get a cybershot...in rest it's a great phone...no complains from me...the batery holds in about 4 days used like hell...like alway nokia made the best phone maybe not to fancy but are the best....aaa and one more thing this phone its for phone calls and mesaging not music video camera and others....it's only a phone, great phone....i luv it

  • I can't say that I have any good comments about this phone,except for the camera. I've only had my phone for 3 months before the lid had broken. My phone was repaired, but it took a whole month before I've received it. Isn't there anything you can change about the memory lack??

  • currently priced at $200 AUD, a phone that gets you from "A to B"

  • this is the Samsung E700, there is no difference what so ever. Besides the huge mofo antenna, i wish i could extend it!

  • This was a great phone during the first 3 hours I had it. The design is slick, really nice. Size is good, small enough to be discreet, but enoughly big not to loose every 15 minutes. The camera is OK, not great quality, but 640x480 can help for the moments you curse yourself for not bringing the Cybershot. The external display can be used for taking pics of yourself. On the downside, the memory is really low. Mine came with only 1.1MB free, after the operator stuffed it with their garbage. The menus are very slow. It has no Bluetooth (but has IR). Now, about mine: the loudspeaker stopped working 3 hours after I took it of the box. Now it is on the tech assistance and I have no chance of having it back before next week. Maybe even next month (worst case scenario).

  • This phone plain and simple sucks. The display lights up for only 10 seconds, the reception is as if i live in the jungle, the different screens take SOOOOOOOOOO LONG to load, and i could say a million other horrible things. The camera is decent. Thank you for reading and deciding not to buy this phone.

  • I had the handset for about 6 months before it really started to play up. First, the time and date froze (leaving the functions that rely on them inoperative), calls were not answered when the fold was opened (despite being set that way), mini display simply stopped working, radio worked on good days only (and that wasn't often) and the main display didn't illuminate when the fold was opened. It was taken to the Nokia Care Centre (who really don't) in Brisbane Aust twice, who kept it for 6 weeks and returned it in the same condition - I have no idea what they did but it certainly wasn't fixed. It then went to the Optus service centre who returned it within a week and most things then worked ok except the radio. Optus have now agreed to provide me with a replacement phone. I don't know if I just got a lemon but wasn't really willing to go with the same model again. I've opted to try the 6131 .... fingers crossed.

  • it is great phone...I use it for normal everyday stuff and it doesn't have a problem even after I dropped it...the only thing I don't like about it is it's small memory...you could hardly put files in it...

  • The phone was great for about 2 hours then it just stopped working. Now when i turn it on it stays on for about 10 seconds then turns off. Is anyone else havin this problem?

  • hello everyone! can somebody tells how to connect this phone to pc? please help me!

  • i need help!... i have one of this phone but can i put my own music on it as ringtones????

  • hello everyone! can somebody tells me how to transfer my pic to my pc??? what will im gonna do to transfer it? please help me!! email me at [email protected].. thanks!! Godbless!!

  • can a 6230i theme be used in a 6101? thanks!

  • i think it is an awesome phone but the aerial is a bit of a problem i think it should have a built in aerial because the one it has is too big!

  • It's really cool. I just can't get my head around that. I mean sure, there is the problem of no bluetooth and low memory but amongst most other phones it really stands its ground and isn't it just awesome when your phone rings in a crowd and you flick it open just like in a movie? I love it

  • if only it had bluetooth...

  • This is a fabulous phone. Can't complain - just the memory is too low.

  • this is an ok phone but if you have one i recomend you burn it, i think it is horible. my friend has one and so my other friend got the exact same and their always doing things on it and its anoying, i hd to steal some old ladies phone just so i could be in their "little group" but another one of thier friends has a sony ericson t290i which is better than all of theirs put together including mine which i stole so get a sony ericson t290i if you want a ggood phone

  • its a cool fone.Design is very slick and nice picture quality.It would have been even better if the memory was bigger.

  • I've been using this since 24th december 2005 and i gotta say, i have loved every single moment of using that, except that damn tiny 4.4 mb memory (I always run out of it) and god-damn long page load- and parse-times with the built-in XHTML-browser via GPRS-connection* (test-page was 53kb, w3c-standard campatible XHTML-document and it took over 3 minutes to load, even when i ordered the new web-settings from my service provider and then after that from nokia via their site). The size if very compact (compared to that old 3510i i had before this, it's not much smaller, but a slight lighter). One thing i gotta whine about is that those screens get scratched too easily, yes i could have kept the screen cover-plastics on, but both of them had a big air-bubble in middle of the screen, like that the phone was useless 'cause I could not see the screens... The FM-radio is a nice feature, saved me from the boredom quite a few times. ( *= I do reliaze that you may not have same operator as i have, and I reliaze that load-speeds are relative to the radio-signal and service-operator )

  • wow!! this is great cell phone a lot of my friends say that this is very nice,and according to one of my officemate this is nice, great camera

  • Great to look at, but the memory is so bad. Not enough!

  • Hi, I just moved from Japan (I am Jap-American) and I like this phone. Its an ok phone, but its kind of outdated. I like this better than the Japanese phones (i had DoCoMo). The Japanese phone maker people try to hard to make their phones good. They SUCK!

  • I really have to comment on this phone cos the phone is really nice, the camera is sharp.

  • phone sucks! low memory available! camera sucks!

  • its a xelent mobile i love it it has realy good ringtones the best 1 is Robotique its so cool, good camera no so good in dark places thou, great voice recorder and radio and wallpapers and graphics. it also has a infared port dont use it much but its mad 2, my fav feature are the buttons there big for big fingered peolpe like me!!!! pretty crappy games but who cares its also got an organiser with a stop watch, countdown timer, calender, to-do list, calculator and a few more it also fits fine in your palm good job nokia its a brill phone 4 eny1 and 4 200$ its so worth it 10/10

  • hello to everi one! i have ordered this phone for use in the philippines! farewell to all d pipol!

  • this phone is awsome n i no a good phone wen i c 1 i have gone thru like hundreds of em n this is the best i have had!! the most expensive 1 was like $600 n this beats it by far!!!

  • this phone is great, i bought this to my friend and its really nice for an installment basis...i love it, here in the phillippines this model sells like hotcake...nokia thank you so much for making this great model

  • dis phone is very cheap.. and so its features... the design really sucks... the features are very low.. the memory is very very low.. in other words... this phone isn't worth the money! plese nokia!! if you need to hire a designer from samsung.. PLESE DO SO!

  • samsung is better at making flip phones. Actually, they have better phones altogether.

  • one of my friend named jalpa got this phone recently and she is not happy with it

  • well i will sugest this phone is not so good

  • i had using this phone 4 about 4 months something jus happen when i connect the ear-phone n i click radio it jus wun go in...WEIRD~!!!!

  • this phone is crap... i've had mine for 9 months and my screen got scratched by the buttons. And not enough memory. and my fone has been sent back because the screen went blank

  • I hate seeing some of the coments on here from ameteur users completely dising the phone, i think is great and i dont know how people can complain, i must admit though leaving out bluetooth and expandable memory wasn't such a good idea. I here in Australia havent heard of any problems with it, I think this is one of Nokia's many Success storys

  • @Stupid Way: I totally agree with you. Indoors I can hear people loud enough, but when outside it's a total mess! If this phone at least had a bluetooth than the low sound volume wouldn't be that much of the issue. QUESTION TO NOKIA CORP: What is wrong with you lately? Why didn't 6101 had a bluetooth like 6103 does now? And that's when you already were capable of making 6260and some other models with bluetooth!!!!! NO EXCUSE HERE!!!!

  • This phone is not the Asian Way but rather the Stupid Way! There is nothing good about this phone. I don't even know how does T-Mobile allow such junk to be released onder its brand name! PROS: -Nice design (does design make it a phone?) CONS: -Slow as hell -Low earpiece sound -Low ringtone sound (and that's no matter what type of ears you have!) CONCLUSION: Through this toy into toilet sink! -

  • I have tried them all, V3's LG's, Nokia etc etc etc. Just bought this from Aust Post in Vic and I have to say I love it. Great battery life and nice easy to use keys. Would have been better with bluetooth but other than that it is fantastic for the price $199!!!

  • Can take about 40 picstures on highest quality. On smallest quality you can take hundreds. can fit quite a lot on it.

  • well to Eazy this phone is a waste of time it is no good you can only have about 2 songs & about 5 pictures. Do not waste your money (Im in trinidad)

  • well i really only want to hear from people who have the nokia 6101 nd' live in new york because tht's what category i fall in . . .but yea, i just want t0 kn0w is the phonebook limited . . . how many pictures can you take . . . is it better to just record your songs and place them as ringtones than to download ringtones . . . PLEASE TRY 2 GET AT ME ASAP. . .thnks

  • its great but its dum and it does my head in

  • if you are unhappy with the features of this phone look at buying the lg kg245. it has bluetooth and is cheaper. PLUS its memory space is way bigger. this phone looks great but i have made my mind up and am ppurchasing something else.

  • i have this phone and its my 2nd handset in 2 months it froze in the middle of a game so i exchanged it and as soon as i got the other phone i deleted the games. i must say this phone isnt the best ! its very strong yes but it has crap memory and no mp3 player and shit recording sound comeon i recommend this phone to people who want simple phones with camera but for those who prefer more specifications like myself i recommed a more advanced mobile - i myself now i switchin to SE w550i seein as im 14 i can only afford cheap phones :)

  • This phone IS great all around...but the real upset of it is the VERY LOW memory space...and also doesnt have expandable memory slot.

  • this is the best phone ever. great quality for a low price. even though my strap has some metal on it..the case doesn't get scratched. its camera also has a good quality. proper care for it and it will be in great condition for a long time.

  • this phone is fantastic it has taken a beating from me, i throw it, i kick it, i drop it, i play footy with it and it still works. great buy if u treat it well unlike me haha.

  • the phone is really best but i think that the memory is to small for real and it shoukld be able to get more downloads

  • this is to let you guys know that i had the phone for the past 6 months and it is the best phone that i have ever had it can take alot of banging and it still works but the phone is the best thank you NOKIA

  • i have this phone for 6 months, and it was the worst buy ever. the flip has broken twice and the antena now has bad signal. i would strongly recomend not to buy this phone. now i have a big headache with my provider trying to change it.

  • a friend of mine bought this phone about 5 months ago and the top part is already showing signs of weakness, i believe no clam shell phone will ever be made to withstand constant use without weakening too fast.

  • if any one knows how to get rid of the actual folders like clip art etc, to gain more memory! i have deleted all items in these folders but cant get any further. need to get a decent ringer tone for it asap

  • A very fine phone. I like it so much cause it is so handy, just dont demand for more memory, my guess is that nokia created this unit only for simplicity sake. for calls and SMS only, this model is on top :D radio feauture is a bonus ;) luv it.

  • I think that this handset is brilliant. One of my favourite things is the built in radio and the infrared, i have never used infrared before. Oh, and the picture quality is great. I don't think much of the video though, i expected much better quality like on my friends samsung phone.

  • This phone has very nice pictures and most users will like to have more. However, the memory is too small and I think it should be increased. It deserves to have a blue tooth.

  • I purchased this handset 2 weeks ago. I find that this phone has a terrible battery life, it only lasts 1 day at max. I have also found that many calls drop out. I do not advise anyone to purchase this phone if they use the phone a lot. However I must admit the camera and the buttons are great!

  • Hey, I have this phone, and it is awesome, Can someone please tell me how to get the ringtone to ring for longer then 15 secs when you get an incoming call? Thanks

  • Lovely little phone. You need the USB cable though as the memory is a little naff but overall the phone is brilliant.

  • I've had this phone 2 weeks and I love it! It feels and looks gorgeous, and I love that the keypad is so easy to use, the buttons are large and feel great. I don't understand why people are complaining about the memory. Pictures take 10-25kb and you have about 1.5Mb of memory, and 100 pics at HIGH quality sounds pretty good. I love the camera on this phone, much better quality than what I expected. You can choose quality settings of Basic, Normal or High, and there's a self timer. I bought a USB data cable for 50 bucks from Dick Smith Electronics because I was taking so many photos. It's great, because from my computer I can transfer images and tones etc including tones I downloaded online, and I can delete things off the phone I'll never use, like Clip Art. My phone also came with headphones to listen to FM radio, which is surprisingly good quality. It only came with 3 games, Solitaire, Canal Control & Golf Tour. I usually hate games but Canal Control is sooo addictive and fun! I bought a packet of 20 PDA screen protectors from Dick Smith for 20 bucks just in case. You can just cut them to size. As for the battery, I have found I need to recharge every 2 days or so, but then I do take HEAPS of pictures, play games alot, and listen to the radio using the headphones on the bus most days so that's understandable.

  • it has a low capacity in memory...the design is nice but the keypad keeps on leaving marks on the screen...oh.. ands it should have a bluetooth..but in other ways its great..the camera is very clear.

  • hi, i have a sharp gx17 and i am thinking of selling it and bying a nokia 6101. is it worth it? i will make 100 dollars from selling my sharp and will spend an extra buying the nokia. is this a good change or is there another good quality phone for around $200? please email me

  • bad memory

  • can anyone tel me if u can get tones from a phone dat has its tones on bluetooth or does the other phone has to have its tones on infared

  • what is the battery lifespan for an average user? i am using the motorola v620 currently and it has a terrrible lifespan ( three quarters of a day. )

  • I like this phone very much but I have to admit that the good first impression is not a lasting one. It is quite disappointing that the only problem with the phone is the biggest one. The memory. I think the manufacturers made a huge mistake in deciding to limit the phone's memory like they did. It would have been fine if they had at least provided a memory card slot. bluetooth would have also been appreciated.

  • Excellent little phone, Great pic quality. shame on the memory though but who wants to hold 100's of pics on there phone anyways. Also you can only have a couple of full length realtones but then again who has the time to listen to all the song anyways. Good little phone.

  • The keypad leaves huge marks on the display, damn terrible design.

  • This phone is really cool. The only problem i have with it is that it does not have sufficient memory.The flip is so sexy. Oh and it should have bluetooth

  • I bought this unlocked nokia 6101. However, I have extremely poor reception in new zealand with vodafone. Any idea why and if I can have it fixed? urgently need expert's help! pls email, thanks!!

  • Well i get this phone a few monthsago and i like it very much!Before this I had a Motorola E380 so i feel the change.Is true that the memory is not enough, but the batery is quite good 5 day in a row! Is a shame that it hasn�t bluetooth, but the infrared port works fine, I miss don�t have indentificated all my contacts with a diff. ringtone (Moto has it):( Anyway, if u look for a nice phone with some technology, this is your phone! Cheers from Argentina.

  • hey my niece is buying me this phone..is it a good buy. i don't want her to waste her money.i really want to know the good and bad about this phone..

  • my sis bought this for me..i was so excited but when i got hold of it..i was disappointed...the phone has a very low memory..i had hoped for better phones with cam video radio and mp3...but they bought me this one so i gues i have to stick to this..thanks to my sis anyways...

  • good phone good in evry things but bad in memory i d'ont know why .

  • go for se z530i wich is much more better than tis and will provide u all features a ery gud cmaera and a card slot in the same amounnt

  • This phone has the WORST MEMORY EVER!! but it does have a good camera and a good battery.

  • Hi guys, had one of these phones and with the memory you have to delete the cache on the phone from when you hook up to the net. I deleted almost everything out of the phone and it still said it was full, then by accident I deleted the cache and all the memory (woohoo, all 2.00k of it!!) came back. I have since traded this phone in on something a bit more substantial :) Good luck :)

  • Nokia designers must have been sleepy when they designed this phone. Memory is very very poor 4.4MB shared, speaker quality is poor, when playin mp3 ring tone it comes out scratchy and high pitched. Only thing can say for it is that if it falls on the ground it will not break. I dont recommend this phone

  • This phone SUCKS, it doesnt hold ANY pictures and the memory fills up constantly, even when you erase stuff it is still full!! This is my second one cuz i thought it was defective!

  • the truth is, if u are jus looking for a cute phone,are not interested in technology, dont really play games and r willing to delete pics and rings regulary buy this phone. It has no memory at all, it can b very frustrating, I have one an i am pissed.If you just like to use phones for emergencies only etc, its perfect.U were warned u!!

  • uuuuuu.........my br0's phone...cute2...it has all the best function....hurry2...go n buy it...

  • this fone isnt worth buying, it has hardly any memory so u cnt ave many pictures on it, and the calling features r rubbish you cnt hear anythink unless its on speakerphone and then when you do the sound comes out the other side of the phone so u cnt hear it!! its not worth the hassle to be honest

  • this fone is actually a load of crap i wish id found out more about it first it luks gr8 yer bt it has no memory on it, ive hardly gt anything on it!! like onli 20pics n i keep havin to delete things, and i duno bout anyone else bt it keeps freezin n turning off!! n also the fone keeps coming apart!! so i am trying to get a different fone, cos i cnt stand this one aany more

  • This is the best phone I have ever used! It's almost perfect. The battery last so long and there's a lot you can do to it and it looks good too! To make it better, I've dropped it at least 50 times and it works just as good as it did when I first got it!

  • Can someone plz tell me if this phone is worth my money or not. i think it looks great but i am just concerned about its functionability.

  • I don't like how it takes awhile to load (i know, it's like half a second or something). I JUST got this phone so imagin how bad the lagging will get after a few months. the camera is pretty bad too. my last phone was a samsung and this phone was not my first choice (even the dealer told me this phone wasnt that great) but it just happened and i ended up with this.. =( some of the functions are kind of confusing too.. like the phonebook. it's a hassle to add/delete because the names and the numbers seem to be totally independent of each other.. i dont plan on keepin this phone for the 2 whole years that i am with the company.. not that it can even last that long (my guess). i wouldn't really recommend this phone to anyone... but it's OK if you just want a phone that works...

  • Thhis Phine is great it has low memory but i can live with it.I had it since it firs came out.I read many problems but mine doesnt have any problems.I bought mine in the philippines.Im guessing evyone else bought it in the u.s. area with t mobile.i recomend using cingular for it.Overall its a great phone.=)

  • i want to buy this phone for my girlfriend....

  • This phone is PRIME i love it :)

  • hey i would just like to ask...up to how many photos can it store?i'm planning to buy this phone and i wouldn't mind some advice...tnx

  • i like the 6101, but it will be perfect when it get bluetooth too!

  • I've bought one but I'm a bit disapointed... When it's opened, it appears a fish in the little screen, do you know how to remove it? It is also a bit slow when writing messages. Help me with the "fish" please!!!

  • i would like to get one myself could someone out der really tell me if i'm wasting my time.

  • hey i just bought the 6101 phone yesterday and i can't hear anything unless i used the loudspeaker...time to get a new one already?

  • I have a 6101 and I love it! I've heard lots of people complain about them freezing and what not but nothing's ever gone wrong with mine! And it's so cute!

  • This phone is great, good pictures, high quality, phone calls came out GREAT! Good job NOKIA!! i'm in love with this phone, no problems yet!!

  • Nokia6101 is the wost phone I have ever used in my life.Its so slow, small memory and currently its freezing, starts up, automatically reduces the volume, peform voice dialing.I hate this phone. Anybody knows what the problem is or should I just throw it away ?

  • This phone is alright, my bros gf has one, she hasnt had much problem with it, the memory is a bit small, but i just edited some songs to make them smaller and BINGO!!! I mean who really has the time to listen to the full version of the song!!! One problem that i have seen is that the screen is getting like a mark where the centre and directional keys are... On the whole it is a pretty beaut little phone, only $249 on Optus Prepaid in Aus at Dick Smith or $366 for outright at Dick Smith as well Hope this helps your purchase of this great phone!

  • Overall, this phone is ok. The speaker phone feature is especially great. What I hate most is the phone's software; it's kind of slow. The main menu takes 1 sec to load. It's just too slow for me; maybe I just have quick fingers :)

  • I really am not so happy with my Nokia 6101. I got it the day it came out in September, and since then I've had three of them. The screen either freezes or blanks out/turns white on occasion, to the point where I have to take out the battery to make it right. It has very little memory, BUT I must say that the camera gives HIGH quality pictures, I took pictures at the Hoover Dam with my phone and then printed them at Walgreens, and they look like postcards, and I am not exaggerating. Overall though, I would not buy it again, and I can not wait until I can get a new phone!

  • Everyone complains about the memory, about how many pictures can you take?

  • the nokia 6101 is a crap phone!!! i had it and the pictures wer alright but not even good...the phone kept freezing...and the worst thing is the MEMORY!!!geez thay expect us to take photos n videos n java gamez...but wif wat memory....swapt to a sumsaung n i think its better than nokia..but i think dat the motorola has everyfin i want...:P cyas ..n trust me i had it!!

  • well i got this phone about 4 months ago ..it broke 2 months ago therfor i had to get a new one....today my phone broke again and it has to be taken back to the shop i am not too pleased but i still love nokia

  • this phone is a phone for people woh are not looking for phone with a lot of memory.because it does't hold a lot of memory.also the camera does not take out clear pictures.other than that the phone isn;t such a bad phone.

  • Great little phone. Only PROBLEM is the keypad scratching the screen up. I suggest getting screen protectors otherwise it will be ruined in days. A friend has had problems with the speaker.

  • i think its a great phone cuzz it looks good and its very rezistent although its got a clap.very easy 2 use and nice big screen

  • i work in a moblie phone shop and recently got a hold of this 4 myself. im impressed thus far as i thought it was poor at first as competitors seemed to have higher specs. screen is very clear and recommend to anyone who want an easy to use mid spec phone. falls due to the lack of bluetooth.

  • i want to no were to get the softwere the memory anit that goog but the rest is alright

  • I buy the phone in Venezuela and PTT fuction can not see... Do You kwon have to activated? or I need download other software?. For use MP3 need the Nokia PCSuite for convert other MP3 compression in MP3 compression supported by Nokia.

  • I am trying to put some mp3 file through infrared in my new nokia but somehow it always shows "No supported file system". I suppose this might be due to different bits system for diff MP3 files. Can someone advice me on what is the right MP3 bit type. In addition...can someone advice on how to download files from the telephone to the PC?

  • after seeing the mobile i feel great, i didn't buy it, but i will buy later when the price is comes down

  • memory isn't expandable.. but it takes good pictures... you can transfer data (pictures, ringtones) thru infra. no bluetooth.

  • would anyone know if you could send pictures to other mobile phones using the infrared??? pls do tell me if its possible.. thanks

  • i have this phone and its great.i love design,but there is not too much memory.

  • my best friend has this fone and it rocks. i was going to get an LG but when i saw this nokia i fell in LOVE. only one prob, howcome it says that u can only get it in black but i have seen soo many pics of silvers ones? pleas help me....

  • I bought a Nokia 6101 about a month ago and I love the phone. The only two problems is that the loud speaker is that great and it is sooooooo bad on memory! You can only take about 10 pictures and it gives you a message that the phone is low on memory. The two displays are great!!!! I would recommend this phone but if you plan on taking a lot of pictures I dont suggest it!!!!

  • Great phone, but the text messaging is not good!

  • I would not reccomend this phone to anyone who text messages regularly...you cannot write a new text message without manually erasing the last one you wrote...AFTER you do that, the title stays the same until you exit out of the "message" menu and then return to it. There is no setting to change this. Also...it takes a few seconds for each screen to load AND...unlike other phones where i could see 7-8 entries in my missed/recieved/dialed calls list and inbox/outbox, you could only see 2 or three. I could not get used to this phone for the life of me...Samsung all the way!!!

  • this phone is real gr8 i hav had it about 8 months the problom is it stores hardly any photos

  • I have had my nokia 6101 for 6 months now, and i have to say it's the best phone i ever had,i dropped it on really hard surfaces and never broke,up to date never had one single problem and if you play with it long enough you will be surprised what you can do my wife has the same phone and she never had any problems either, only phone i will ever buy.

  • I have had my 6101 for 5 days. I have never owned a Nokia phone before and was excited when they finally came out with a flip phone. It worked fine, the camera is much better than the Motorola V-300 I traded it in for. Then it dropped from my hand, once. From about three feet, to the ground. Not an exceptionally hard fall, it just fell. The ringer no longer works. It is amazing to me that a phone could be designed under the pretense that it will never suffer a three foot fall, one would think that the designers would give some thought to the possibility of a phone being dropped by it's owner. In any case, other that the fact that I do not know when someone is calling unless the phone is in my hand or very close to me it works great.

  • Oh, just one little thing. If I was to review this phone I would change the GSM's Arena headline: Nokia 6101 The Asian Way. I would call it: Nokia 6101 The Stupid way!

  • GREAT PHONE????? It seems that people don't have good hearing anymore: MY SITER HAS THIS PHONE: CONS: -Horrible slow menu response -Cheap plastic design (and that's only $50 less in retail price than my perfect $200 6170!) -Very low volume sound quality (again comparing to my normal loud 6170) WHY DOES NOKIA/T-Mobile release this model and not a beautiful/perfect 6170 in the U.S.?????

  • I just bought this phone for a great bargain deal with t-mobile. I originally had a Motorola V300 which was so frustrating due to flaws, i ended up destroying the phone. For the duration of 5 months, these are my observations. Pros: A nice solid durable phone. Perfect reception no factory flaws comes with a quality battery Cons: If you are looking for a "bling bling" phone with all the fixins, this phone is not for you. I personally adore this phone because it is perfect at being a phone. It has video capabilities, and camera, but it is at best average. Where this phone exceeds is bringing you crisp phone calls, and portability. The best i've ever experienced compared to the 2 motorolas i owned. (v300, and the RAZR)

  • it's a really great phone. the picture quality is pretty good and it stays looking nice easily. the only concern i might ever have, is that everytime i've tried to send a picture to my email or something, or even friend's emails, the url it sends me to doesn't work. but i've never had a probelem with the phone!

  • I work all day with phones, and what you are saying about this phones memory is very true, but there is a simple rememdy. Once a week you should clear the "cache" on the phone and you will be good to go. My friend also has this phone so I know it works.

  • why dont all phones have bluetooth

  • i would like to know if both holes output sound or only the one furthest away from the antena. i have a feeling that i might have got a drop of cola in the one closer to the antena and could be blocking the little speaker screen it has in there. so id like to find this out which hole outputs sound before i take it apart and clean it. thanks.

  • i bought this phone unlocked, its native t-mobile. im using it on rogers in ontario, and its a pretty sick phone. the only drawback is it memory. but that really shouldnt be a selling point of a phone. (well maybe now a days it is). i like how u can make ur own mp3 tones and send em over to the phone using the IR. reception is decent. i had a samsung p207 before and only bought this cause i needed speakerphone. but the p207 reception in an underground concrete garage in a condo building was usually 5/6 or a full 6/6 bars and this phone is only 2/4 but there is no cut outs or crackles when ur in a conversation. so all in all i like this phone cause it fits my lifestyle a bit more than the p207.

  • M E M O R Y ! ! ! ! PLEASE!!!, IT has practically no memory, MP3 is a useless feature coz 1 song will consume the only 3MB of shared memory it has. Camera ok Screen ok Ext screen Awfull (Please, a CSTN disp? what about the SGH-E316 and his both TFT Screens? Nokia, you can do it better) Memory BAD, HORRIBLE, NO MEMORY Good characteristics: IRDA (no soft for upload to the phone but for download it needs the f*ck*ng PCSUITE) camera, unlimited video, radio (it came with stereo headsets). BAD characteristics: The radio doesn't work without the headset, can't download from the phone to a PC without NOKIA's software, VERY LOW MEMORY, Not all MIDI ringtones works (Only Yamaha OPL or XG plays on this phone, otherwise it says "Damaged file" - "Archivo da�ado")

  • this phone has really really good design but a little bit thick....the memory is very very low if it had a card slot it would be much more better and of course the lack of bluetooth is bothering too and i hope nokia add unlimited video recording (in 3gpp or mp4) and unlimited voice recording (in amr) to its future phones in 61 series but this design is briliant i put a 10 for design , 5 for features and another 5 for performance.

  • Hi, I have recently just had the "Motorola V3 Razr Blue" Mobile which I have had Faulty 3 times and 3 replacements, Its not a good phone as it collects Dust very easily through the TFT screen but a lovely phone, Just been to Carphone Warehouse and purchased this lovely "Nokia 6101" its a nice stylish phone from Nokia and I am on a Pay As You Go "o2" network, anyone I know the memory is low but when you think about it, If you want a phone with lots of memory and a great Camera and other features then you dont need a Mobile you need a "Laptop"... Get this phone, Dont listen to other comments...

  • As far as Nokia flip phones go, this one seemed simple, elegant, light, and easy to use. The reception was good in urban areas, and the earpiece volume was also good. Pictures were fine as novelty items but not especially worthwhile for prints etc... So what went wrong? Hard to say, but I do know this: one day the screen went kaput for no aparent reason. It was treated well, so who knows maybe it was a lemon or had a bug. Would I recommend this phone to others. Probably, since when it worked, it was very nice.

  • It has a really small Memory. I was able to free memory by deleting pre installed ringtones and graphics, so now I have arround 2.4 Mb free. You don't need to pay to listen radio, you can't listen mp3 on the go, but you do can use an MP3 for ringtone. It has a great battery life (my first reason to buy it), kinda excellent signal (at least better than with previous models), it has a buildt in camera (that i don't use because a digital camera can take better shots and has an extra memory slot, that this phone hasn't) It is a good cellphone if you want long battery life, good signal and very little customization. (like me)

  • hi i would greatly appreciate it if some one could answer my question im going to purchase a new Nokia 6101 for apporixmately 30$ and i wanted to know if it was an actaul mp3 player that i could listen to on the go? Thank you

  • I am 13 can someome tell me if it is a good buy for prepaid people like me. Do you have to pay for the radio? Why do does it have small memorey

  • it is not a good phone at all i notice flip became loose a after a month it came off all togeter held in 2 bits by a wire.. an friends the same problem i would not advise anyone to get it

  • I bought the Nokia 6101 in september last year and I thought it was a great phone at first, sleek design, radio, MP3 player, camera and the list goes on. That was till it started playing up on me and now I have had it repaired on 3 separate occasions and no longer use it. I have been using Nokia's for about 8 yrs now and I feel they are starting to lose the quality that I think they once had. To be more honest I think the Nokia 5110 & 3210 were the best models that were ever created. They were basic, if you dropped them they would not break and there was none of this fancy modern technological stuff that is put into all phones today. This will not put me off from buying another Nokia one day but this phone was not well thought out and now I have bought the new Motorola Pink Razr V3 which is has all my needs met that I would need in a mobile phone.

  • Hi, I got this phone about a month ago because my little brother drowned my other phone in lemonade :(! But i wanted a new phone anyway, but my mum couldnt afford one i wanted (im only 13) I wasnt to sure on this phone but i decided to get it anyway. ALthough it is a good phone it gets cratched to easily from the keypad, like all the scratches on the inside screen look like the keypad which suks! ALso i dislike the ariel, it should have an y internal one!! I really eanted the 6111 but couldnt get it as my mum didntt want to pay that much and then 2 weeks later at the exact same shop i could have got it CHEAPER then the 6101. I was really annoyed but i have to deal with it. I wouldnt reallly recoment it though!

  • hi rich, you can edit your pics on any photoshop software on PC and resize your picture to 128x160 then use file transferring FROM YOUR pc TO YOUR 6101 USING pc suite through infrared or CA53 USB. thanks

  • Its a good phone, the memory its so poor but if you not use the cell like a walkman the memory reaches and exceeds. The pictures taken with the camera are best even the shown ones in this page. Is very recommended if you want a cheap phone whit camera and good quality

  • i like this fone and all but ive herd that it is very flimsy and does temp to break easily. sombody please tell me if it is good and should i buy it? thanx

  • I've had the phone for about 2 months and I do love it.. the only thing that sucks about it is that whenever i lost service (like going into the basement or in a place with bad reception) i'd have to shut the phone off and turn it back on again which isnt a good convience because i missed many calls. besides that i liked how you could basically get your own ringtones for free as long as you had internet since it plays mp3's. i paid $129 for it even though it's free now i think it was worth it. the camera on it is very clear also!! it looks bad from the second display window but when you open it up, the pictures are very good! holds a LOT of space (a lot more than my last nokia)

  • Hi, I purchased this phone a couple of days ago it seems to work well. it has many great features that can keep you company. The downside for this phone is that it has very low memory, so there is basically no point of Nokia adding all those features because the memory always seems to be full, your always limited to the amount of pictures, videos, ring tones, and games you can have. Other than that the design is excellent.

  • Hi, I�ve trying to the Nokia software Suite 6.70.22 to resize some images so I can download to the phone. But I can�t find the Nokia 6101 on the pick list to resize the images to a screen size of 128X 160 for the main screen. All I can get is 128 X 128. Does anyone know if another phone has the same size screen size? I have downloaded the latest Nokia software. Thanks Rich

  • Hi, I've been having this phone fr a few months now and really like it but it does have some draw backs. Firstly the battery life is only about 3-4days and that too by not using the phone often! Secondly everytime I swich it on I get an error "checkconnection setting" well I've taken the phone to be checked several times and dont seem to fing anything wrong with it. If anyone else has the same prob as me would appreciate if there was a solution. Lastly I cant seem to download mp3 rigntones from the phone. I've tried from the site saved on my bookmarks but keep getting an error as "file format unknown" Can anyone tell me a way of getting mp3 rigntones onto my phone or a site to download through gprs? Thanks!!

  • i've had this phone for 2 months now and i am very pleased. it hasnt given me any problems and it's easy to use. it's my first nokia and will probably purchase another type in the future.

  • This phone is a disaster, after 1 month the screen would freeze, a million and one error messages would appear and after it being "repaired" three times its still doing the same thing!! Ive had to try very hard not to destroy this thing against a wall and be done with it. Ive since heard bad things about nokia flips, they should stick to what they do best cos this model is for the tip! All my other phones (samsung and motorola flips) have lasted 2 years plus!

  • Does anybody know how to move contacts from the phone to the sim card n vice versa?

  • the nokia 6101 is great phone. i wud like 2 know more info abt it. whats the total time of recordind songs? how many songs/music can u record?

  • totally free...but obviously it will chow your battery

  • i just love the radio....

  • Hey does anyone know if they charge you for using the radio?

  • I always used to buy used phones online, I finally decided to buy a new one and I bought the Nokia 6101. This phone is great!!!!! I have gone through about 7 diffrent cell phone, this is the one I am planning to keep!!! The money I gave for this phone is worth it to the last penny!!!!!

  • This phone sucks it has only 4mb memory!!!! and it hasnt got any memory slot. The mp3 player is useless!!!

  • i bought my 6101 yesterday and find it good, somebody said that it hungs up, but according to my analysis, the fone memeory is just around 4MB w/c is obviously cannnot operate well when you take so much images, videos, messages etc. it means that your mememory cache is enable to respond your system so that it hungs up when you used o lat of it so i recommended to buy a CA-42 CABLE to transfer your files into your pc so that you can erase and free up some space on your fone. thanks, by the way im a batangenyo. -ala'y dine laang.

  • I just brought the Nokia 6101. Love the phone but can't hear callers so it's useless. Taking it back :(

  • the phone is very nice but the price is not good enough

  • seems fine and nice,but not the thing on top of the phone.....

  • its a nice fon... i have it now for a month and its good... the only problem is that the gprs is not working..... i already downloaded all the settings but it won't work.... and the big surprise is its mms capability is to the max!!!!! why???? because its free!!!! i dont know if its the network provider's problem but i am the only one who has this feature since i bought the fon.... nice.... hehehehehe............... LOVE THIS PHONE!!!!!!!!

  • hello,can you upload mp3 ringtones onto this phone from your computer?What is the size limit?What is the time limit?

  • my text messages aren't working. it always says message sending failed. does anyone know how to make it work?

  • My aim isnt working on my phone either. I have no idea what the problem is but the second day after i bought it, it stoped working. Its a nice phone and all but this is making me upset.

  • Yes, you can record something than use it as a ringtone. Regards, -- Jay

  • Can some1 pleasee tell me if you can record something and use it as a ringtone??

  • wow!!!! i like this phone so much.... but the memory is not just enough.... i like the over all package but please put some memory card on this...4MB???!!! san nakarating yun.

  • To hello123 you can't play mp3 on it. Maximum is one song, the memory is not big! You only can listen radio.

  • I have the Nokia for a half a year now, but after 3 weeks there were back scratches in the white paint. The material of this phone is very cheap. I wouldn't recommend it in de the first please. But if you are looking for a beautiful design and not many functions it is a great phone. I only miss Bluetooth...

  • What is the size of outgoing sms capability?Does this phonehave mp3 playback?What is the size of mp3 ringtones?

  • Hi,i was debating between this phone and the samsung x 660,could anyone help with the foll q's? 1.Is this better or the samsung x 660?What does the samsung have that this does not? 2.Is there anyway of extending duration of voice and video recording? 3.What are the other clamshell phones with these features,in this range. 4.Does this phone have mp3 playback? Hope someone could help,im confused.

  • ***This phone is a magnet **** On the back of the phone, just right above the battery cover you'll see the "nokia" logo. Put a paper clip right on it and it'll stick to it like a magnet! This is awesome. I really like the physical look of this phone. But not a typical fast menu like other nokia's. Memory too small. Hard to hear ear phone volume is too low4 in loud places. Microphone is not very clear, sometimes i have to repeat myself twice to people i talk to on the other line. I've had better nokia phones. I recommend the 3220 over this phone. But i like flip phones better. No good nokia flip phones out there. I've had the 7270, had to return it with same problem. I'm keepin this phone just cuz i only spent 100 bucks on it (american dollars). Anymore question, please email me. thanks

  • I accidental deleted fete tone. Can anyone tell me how can i restore it as I cannot send it from another 6101 as all tone are copyright protected.

  • Jennifer is lying, the phone is very good.

  • Model: Nokia 6101 (black) Service: T-mobile To Go (prepaid) Retailer: Target Price: $120 Location: Philadelphia, PA Rating: 9.0/10.0 (rating compared to other prepaid phones) Pros ------------- - Two color display screens - Good quality, size internal display - Unique, nice design - PC compatible, data transfer - FM Radio, good quality sound - Camera, Video, Speakerphone - Voice recorder - Voice dialing, navigation - Customizable navigation button options - High volume speaker - Hands-free options - MP3 compatible - Solid clamshell design - Picture, Voice, Instant Messenger - Download/Upload Ring tones, Games, Wallpapers, and Screensavers - Themes, interface design very customizable Cons ------------- - Mediocre in-call volume - Small amount of memory, about 2.8mb max once deleting all unnecessary files - Flip could use more "spring" action - GUI could be better, more user friendly - Loading times can be bothersome - Mediocre battery life - External antenna - No Web browsing (prepaid) Some worth mentioning pros are the fact that there are a good amount of phone features such as a camera, voice dialing, picture messaging, and more. Features such as wallpaper, ring tones, font color, and icons are all customizable. I recommend getting a data cable to take advantage of all the features the Nokia 6101 has to offer. The most noticeable con would have to be the low audible volume during calls. This only affects what you hear during calls, the other persons volume seems to not be affected. It seems as though it varies with different phones/providers. Overall, I am very pleased with the Nokia 6101. I had a tough time deciding which prepaid phone to choose, but after doing some research decided to go with the 6101. It has a nice design, good features, and one of the best prepaid phone options on the market. If you have a cell phone contract/plan, there are far better phones out there. Fun facts ------------- - Navigation buttons are customizable: change the shortcuts to what best suits you! - Voice activated shortcuts: assign a recorded voice to a shortcut, hold the volume down button, and then say what shortcut you want to go there - Loud speaker radio: plug in headset, go to radio options to switch to speaker - Use camera when shut: just hold down the right external camera button, view yourself in the mini screen! - Download Nokia Series 40 Theme Studio: program to create themes and customize your 6101 If you like the 6101 design and don't want a prepaid phone, I highly recommend the new Nokia 6125! More features (Bluetooth, internal antenna) but with the same sleek design! -- ~Jay

  • Best phone that you can ever ssk for

  • ive had this phone for three weeks and already the spring inside shattered so it didnt wanna open and close properly, the worst phone from nokia, very cheaply made, doesnt wanna open files either, only functions when it feels like it.

  • Phone looks very nice, and has a good camera. But it has a very big problem: the speakers are really bad. i had it for a week, and i'm returning it because nobody could hear me when I speak. so it's nice that a phone has a camera but if it can't do the basic thing a phone is supposed to do = communication. then, NO thanks

  • good phone, i'm happy but nokia hasn't showed the best that could do on this model. the pieces are made of poor material and that cause a wrong impression about quality. 6125 is a kind of evolution but next time don't get wrong because motorola is here to stay!

  • It is all crap, within the 3 of usage, few of buttons got jamed and it is very slow overall the phone is crap I sold it for a half a price Please do not bye this phone

  • it s a very good phone.make some nice photos and i lke this phone very much.it has infrared and radio.grate job from nokia

  • this phone is my favourite.It is really good and fashionable!!Me and my sister have both the same mobile!

  • It froze once when I was using alarm clock function. The alarm kept going off and nothing else would work. That problem stopped after a while. hope it doesnt happen again. Cant get the sync cable I ordered c 42 to work with nokias pc downloaded program. Service from 800 lines totally unacceptable. Cant find anyone who can help with the problem. Hung up on twice after being put on hold. Supposedly downloads to my album with are free for pics. That is pretty cool.

  • This is such a good phone !!! i'm so happy with it , looks really stylish too . it is so easy to use and takes really good pics ! it hasn't got bluetooth but i wouldn't use it anyway , really good buy i would definately recommend it to anyone !

  • hey i wanna get this phone 4 my mums b'day prizzie should i? i like it tho i dont like the antana thing!!! can u plz tell me if it is coz her b'day is on 15/1/06 this sunday so hurry

  • it's a really nice phone i ever seen!!!!

  • Hate it its the biggest rip from nokia ive eva seen thay should be ashamed and why are they bringing out so many phones with such random designs its a waste of money.......

  • I think it's a cellphone suitable for ladies. It's size is small and you can hold it comfortably. The buttons are large enough so it shouldn't be any problem. It's easy to use. I like it (",)

  • omg this phone is really nice it has been working fine. But i went on aim one day n signed on then i forgot to sign off n the next day, it made me sign on so i did then it became frozen n it wont work on aim. please help me btw my phone is prepaid if it makes any difference. i got it at target!

  • i've been very satisfied with this phone ...i've been using it for the past month ....the battery is great....and the radio works perfectly...camera is excelent for a cellphone ...i would advice all the people to get this phone

  • i love this phone, it has all the features an the look too, the camera quality is great for a mobile. o insted of having to carry around a phone,camera and video came its just in one! katie

  • I believe that phones are not to play and not to take photos, It�s just to talk and nothing else. If you want take photos with great quality and great memory to save them, u should get a digital cammera and if you want to play get a video game!!!!. This phone is amazing and quite small. I got it some months ago and it�s working fantastic. No problems with it yet!!!!. I got great photos that it�s enough for me!

  • im in palestin , my nokia 6101 from USA did not doing hire . what to do ?

  • It's a very well concidered move by Nokia. There are ppl who'll never use features like that so they dont want to give money for that. Thay only talk on their phones and what they care is the design. And if it's for little money then even better. I, personally would never buy phone like that bic I'm used to smartphones. But there are a lot of ppl who would buy ot and nokia knows that, so I think it will eventually be a bestseller for the lower class mobiles.

  • I got myself this phone as a sort of "reward" for doing great in my last business with a client. It's been almost three weeks now, and the following things I've noticed: a) the phone's keypad does not respond quite easily to soft touch. It requires you to pin down the buttons to key in the letters while texting. b) Battery life is not that good. It works for a measly three to four days tops. c) User available memory is small (2.2Mb only. The other 2.2 is being used as the phone's internal memory for contacts and other phone apps) d) Yes, the screen gets easily scratched (though I have not gotten my screen scratched coz I left the protective sticker on. My friend, who has the same phone, removed his, and, voila! The screen is now full of scratches. Now, overall, the phone is impressive in its looks, but I just wished that this phone could've been stylish and functinal at the same time. Hoping that Nokia could come up with an upgrade that eases out the problems aforementioned, and add more memory to the phone.

  • Does anyone know how to adjust the time it takes for the main screen to go dim when the phhone is idle? It seems to go dim after 10 seconds or less, and I wish I could make it stay lit longer, such as when I'm reading a web page. TIA Bob

  • To mask the scratches on the screen, use a screen protector. You'll see they're gone. Just make sure to buy an ultra clear screen protector. The non-reflective one has a 3D effect which ruins the view. A screen protector would also prevent more scratches.

  • And yes Ang I think the problem with the delay in answering is universal. I find it really irritating. I also have the problem with the scratched screen from the keypad.

  • I got this phone a few months ago with an O2 contract and I think it's pretty poor. About a week after I got it it started systematically crashing, usually when I closed the flip to end a call. I would then spend ages with the phone off in my pocket not having noticed. Not much memory for photos either and even then they are not great quality compared to what's out there...

  • I believe this phone is worth its price. I bought it for P12,500 ($235) early December. The looks is definitely outstanding. It's very stylish but the features are just satisfactory. Just a warning to those who like to buy this phone. It has very low memory (I often get the message "Not enough..") and the inside screen gets scratched by the keypad no matter how lightly you fold it back. It's a design flaw from Nokia. Now the screen of my phone is ugly just after 2 weeks of usage. Buy a screen protector as a solution.

  • I really like this phone is so fantastic. But I just need to know more about to dowload the pictures to my PC. Thanks Abel Muianga

  • hey i got 2 6101's on the 26th of dec 05, look pretty nice and worked ok untill tonight when i accidentaly droped it about 2 feet down, it bounced on the antenia and landed softly, i picked it up only to notice no dammage and everything fine, 2 hours later my inside and outside screens are cutting in and out and going all scrambled, if anyone else has problems with there phones like this i would appreceat some feedback asap thanks

  • i like the way this phone design in the most simplest way.... that way it's easy to use... ^_^

  • I bought this mobile a few days ago. From what I saw it's fantastic!! The cam is fantastic!!! It's worth buging it!!! Trust me! It's Nokia eh!!!!

  • does anyone have a problem when they flip open their phone to answer calls, there is a few seconds delay? by the time i put the phone next to my ear to answer it is ringing on its last ring...please let me know ~ Thanks

  • It's a very cool phone, I bought that a few weeks ago. I'm satisfied with the camera, It makes excellent pictures. The video is max. 105 sec. long. Easy to use and I can download ringtones and wallpapers without any problem. Does this phone support mp3 ringtones? or only MIDIs?

  • Well i cant say much about the phone since i ve not used the phone for once im only planning to buy one.

  • So...i had this phone for about a week...it sucked. i HATED it! it froze up all the time. i only had 2 things downloaded onto it. It was really hard to hear when someone was talkin & the speakerphone was too quiet too. There was NO zoom on the camera & the video was only 15 sec. long. i hated it. I hate a motorola razr now...& its alot better, but still NOTHING compared to my old LG phone.

  • I got my nokia 6101 few week ago and is really good. But i have some problmes with my carrier service company,,,, they can�t provide any service to perzonalize my phone. How can i get rintonges and other services for my phone.... OH... I�m from PANAMA.

  • omg. if you hurry up and go to TARGET stores. they are selling this phone for under $100. $99.98. I bought one for myself for the holidays. Or when sale runs out, go to tmobile.com. And you can purchase the phone under NO CONTRACT for $150. But you'll have to get the unlock codes for it (google "unlock cellphones"). just an f.y.i. !

  • Have a new nokia 6101 I am having problems with aim and yahoo (request not complete) appears and also (communication error) or it says check your setting...How do I check my setting..? Is there some type of system problem going on with instant messaging if you know send me an email..thanks [email protected]

  • here,just buy Nokia 6101 two day ago,so far so good.love it , get the price around RM680.

  • If you have probbies about the whole "shutting off on its own" or in "frozen" state, it means that you used up too much of the memory. You can have it fixed in a service center, but this problem shoulc be avoided at all cost. This could destroy your mobile phone. Yeah, in some ways, it is kind of related in the N6600 with its problems, as the saleslady informed me.

  • Looks great..... Acceptable functions.... Makes me wonder why Nokia wont produce a phone that has everything....definitely not worth its value....Has a LoT oF rOoM for improvement....

  • Hey there, peeps! I posted on this forum a few months ago and I finally got my phone as an early Xmas gift from my 'rents.

  • Thanks Ampy... hmm I've done that, but I guess there's something wrong because it doesn't appear

  • im glad it has no bluetooth, i hate seeing peopel walking around with those enormous bluetooth ear pieces, theyre sooo horribly designed and lame.

  • hi candy! bluetooth is a technology that is integrated in ur handphone which enables u to transfer or recieved data or images in a short range of distance. it also allows u to recieve incoming and outgoing calls or even hear music through your bluetooth headset if you have. nokia 6101 doesnt have bluetooth in it.. sorry.

  • i wana ask who are using nokia 6101 can v add extra memory card in ,,, bec his memory is to low only 4.4mb if any 1 knows pls guide me thanks . bye

  • just to answer you stef, the small screen will show you the picture of your contat after you add the picture to the contact. you can do that by entering to the contact in your contact list and choose "add image". That's it. And BLUETOOTH is a "hands free" without the cable. You can answer the phone from a bedroom while you are in the kitchen without any cables.

  • Hey I really Love this phone even thought i havent got it yet im getting it for christmas which is in 6 days yahoo!!:) Im 12 and live in townsville

  • Okay, I just got the Nokia6101 today and its a pretty cool phone. The guy that showed me the phone said that the mini screen can show peoples pictures you take when they call... But it doesn't say how you do it in the manual.. So if anyone knows please tell me how to. Also while talking on the phone, it's really quiet. It lacks memory. It's a sweet phone though for it's price.

  • hi people I do not no much anout phones but can u hear the words from the ring in this phone.......is that called bluetooth?

  • i have just bought this phone, it's SOOOOOOOOOOOO elegent and stylish Tones : the built in tones is not that pretty But the Camera : is amazingly clear and bright. the Battery : it is slim and i havent seen before in the usual old mobiles. The Games : built in games is not that fun WOW the mobile can be a modem and can send an email really i liked that black Slick mob

  • no...its a perfect phone..the only complaint is if you snap your phone shut (like push it, it goes down, and you heare like a snap or a click) then the cheap plastic casing gets kind of scratched up. also, the cheap casing is just glued on, so it kind of has a space in between the inside of the phone and the outside..

  • Ok if u have any problems with this phone ur crazy. Oh and the person who wrote the first review, how old r u, 3? there r so many gramatical errors with it, so does mine, but i do it on purpose. In all my years I have never heard such a naggy person. Moisture... ur saying it cant handle MOISTURE!Ur crazy.

  • i think there is a problem with this phone i think its prone to moisture build up.get what thats not cover under the warranty.buyers beware

  • umm im really thinkin of gettin dis phone seems realli kool but ive heard the sound level is low and the big LCD screen is dim is this true??? plz help! thanx

  • I've had my Nokia for abount a month, and I think it'a a great phone. But I do have a problem with mine. My memory used in the gallery says I have used 365.7 kB but when I go through my gallery and add up all the memory in there, it adds up to 246.6 kB. Even if I do delete things that I don'w want anymore, or know that I am not going to use, it doesn't seem like it does anyrhing to free up some memory. My sister has the same phone and she has no problem with hers. Does anyone else have this problem, or know what to do about it?

  • well,i did have my Nokia 6101 last 2 weeks but i sold it to my classmate (a girl)... I dont like its function. It looks like, they just converted the Nokia 6600 into smaller one (Nokia 6101), they have the same features, like infra, 65k colors, but the edge of Nokia 6101 is, it have its own mp3. But i used to sold it, y? because i think, its a girl phone!!! I bought n90 and 6630 after that.

  • cool phone. like the design. want it cos of infrared. boohoo. earning my way through. lala. webby is www.catloversfanclub.blogspot.com pls tag!!

  • I bought my Nokia 6101 Decemeber 9th 2005, and not until I read the previous reviews did I realise the "talk" and "end" buttons are the same color. However the buttons are still distinguishable. The "end" button has the "o" circuit symbol on it (the symbol that indicates how to turn on the phone). Once you 'know' how to operate your phone, the color of buttons shouldn't be a problem. And about the paint easily stratching off thing, I haven't experience that yet and I even have my phone sometimes in my jeans pants pocket. The most I can say about the phone is that its a 'dust magnet'. Because the phone is black, the slighest dust and you can easily see it. Same with finger prints. But all in all, I'm in love with this phone although it lacks a memory card and bluetooth. :)

  • Well... It�s quite cheap... But good though... Could have Blue tooth...

  • No problem at all Mayra. The funny thing is, i just noticed the "call" and "end call" buttons as well. I didnt realized before that these buttons are blue colored, lol. Yea i dont think people notice about it as well or they dont really bothered with it at all. *Still in love with my Nokia 6101! Cheers all!

  • Thanks Coffee. That's so inconvenient. I've never seen a phone do that. I'm surprised in all the reviews i've read on many sites no one has complained about that?

  • Hi Mayra..Yes, mine is all in blue. I think its just the way it lights its buttons up.

  • I just got my 6101 and the side arrow button does not work for lowering volume(down arrow). This is minor. But I need to contact the company to exchange if this other odd inconvenience is actually broken. When you open your phone and all the buttons light up, the green and red "talk" and "end" bottons turn blue so you can't distinguish them from the other buttons. In all the site pictures they show these as red and green. Is this normal for them to turn blue? Please respond asap.

  • Yup, same here. Im experiencing the same problem. Apprently, the paint is not strong enough. Its get scartched easily. But still, i love the phone so much!

  • m using the nokia 6101 for last 2 and half months. the problem lies with the memory.it should have been given more memeory . other thing is that there is some fault in the fold that has made the color on the panel above the camera gone off. did anyione faced this similar problem.

  • MP3 is useless without the card slot. :(

  • i got this phone on the 3rd Dec(i got it at RM899)!! I am soo happy!! I got the white one and it's soo cute and pretty.The phone is great too!! The design is nice and the keypad is good too.What I want to say is that go for it!!

  • I want to know if this fone has full screen mode for pictures?.

  • hi! I previously owned a lgb2100 and faced a "little" problem.I had activated gprs and after downloading a few ringtones i shut down the phone and it didn't start up again.Is it becaus of virus problems or anything?some one mentioned the same problem with a nokia phone.

  • Yes it turns on the lights when an incoming call is recieved... This telephone is amazing, the lack of a bluetooth is a serious mistake from Nokia but Easy to use, nice look, and light

  • I bought this phone back in September and it has been a great phone so far, except for a few little probs. It have turned off and frozen before for no reason. Has anyone else experienced this? Also, has anyone else had the nice chrome bits on the front and top of the phone come off? The black part on the aerial is also starting to come off! I am a little disappointed about this as my phone is very well looked after.

  • Hi, Would any forum users know if the external/ internal display or keyboard illuminates when a call is received. Thanks

  • *little correction.."for ppl who still consider to buy (not but) this phone [...]"

  • got the phone today and i just simply love it! Have the white version and its sooo cool! This phone is really2 awesome im tellin you. For ppl complaining about bluetooth, it doesnt really matter for me coz it has infrared and its really fast. Whats the use for bluetooth anyway if you only have a memory of 4MB(1.1 to be exact). Exploring through menus arent that fast but overall this phone is totally rockin! Great in design, a pretty good feature (just like what a cell phone SHOULD DO! not as MP3 player or digital camera). For everybody who still considering but this phone or other, you really should pick this one! Worth the money (isnt so expensive, got mine for $210CAD unlocked) and it has a nice features. No problem at all so far. The most important to me is battery life and this phone lasts for a really long time. Nokia 6101 is one of the best phone (with its affordable price) out there. Later..

  • This is a great phone

  • It does have a usb port..

  • i love my 6101 but it does nt hav bluetooth or a usb port nor enough memory but it a great fone i avise any1 to buy this as a new fone 4 them seleves

  • I bought my nokia a few month's ago and I have to say it's the best phone I ever had,and it's not built cheap, one day I droped it on my paved drive way, and it only got two minor scratches, to me it's a solid built pnone not like the motorola and samsung that I had before.

  • This phone is great! It has everything you need and more! Unlike most phones, it looks great and so far, I have had no promlems with it. I would definately reccomend this phone to anyone that is looking for a new phone!

  • Hi. I've just bought nokia 6101. It is a great phone but there's one thing i find bit annoying - the display is too bright and I could not find where to change the BRIGHTNESS to a bit lower. Could anyone help me please... THNX. Sue.

  • I love my Nokia 6101

  • I'm looking for a phone that shows big fonts (numbers and lettres) on it's screen. Can anyone tell me if the Nokia 6101 is suitable? The phone is for a relative who's eyesight is not so well. thanks, Michael

  • I love everything about this phone except for a few things. You cant set a different ringtone for each user like I could on my lg and heres the most annoying thing about this phone. YOU CANNOT HEAR ON IT. I can rarely hear anyone on my phone, then out of nowhere it will get really loud. I have a few days left before i can turn it back in and its going back.

  • The best phone ever made by human!

  • don't buy it- complete crap. while you're talking the phone it just hangs up, i had it since july and i had to send it in 3times!!!

  • hi to all i had this mobile 6101 for 1 mounth and it is not that bad but the memory it is not to big and dose anyone know how many call picture you can put ? please e-mail me thank you . fullmoon

  • ive had it for about 2 weeks now and its a good phone. the only thing i dont like about it is, it doesnt have enough memory so u cant really download much like songs and all but besides that its great, people say the camera sucks but the image quality is wonderful. The battery is also a plus! it lasts foreverrr

  • I've had this phone for 2 weeks and the paint and chrome finish is coming off. In my opinion this phone is cheap & nasty. The shop I bought it from is refusing to refund, there is only one place this phone is going, in the bin!

  • Used this for 4 months. Hearing problems ... never had any. As far as MP3 capability ... as you can notice there is NO mp3 player so this fone wasnt designed for mp3. The radio is good enuff .. you want music ... get an IPOD ... i opted for it, no cell fone can come close to the IPOD ... or true mp3 players in this case. Keypad is excellent ... esp. for big fingers like mine. I hate typing on cells like K700i and such and believe me ive never had a more comfy keypad than this cell fone's!!! Excellent when you want something different. Although yea ... somewhere around 20-30MB of memory would have been better. Btw it has around 4mb memory. My free memory and gallery used memory make up around 3mb themselves ... I didnt count up the others. But it SURELY aint 2.8MB!

  • This is an excellent phone. First thing I have to say is that it is NOT too quiet. Many people on many sights have said it is too quiet but I really think they are just not holding the phone properly. I previously had a Nokia 3120 and it had the same problems - you have to make sure your ear doesn't cover the little holes for the speaker. Also, there is an automatic volume adjustment feature that when turned on, compensates even more for loud surroundings. I have had crystal clear conversations with this phone in crowded clubs without any problems. The functionality of the phone is Nokia quality. Everything makes intuitive sense, the buttons are great, and the screen is nice and detailed. One of the neatest features that I recently started using is the Outlook sync over Infared. By downloading the free Nokia suite software, syncying your phone with your calendar is as easy as clicking a mouse. It is really cool! Only cons are that the preloaded ringers suck (who doesn't include a standard ring-ring tone) and the camera is nothing to brag about. I would recommend this phone to everyone, it really is great!

  • rubish phone! I was expecting much more bild quality from nokia, no one feel nothing about that awfull plastic feeling when you touch the phone? It feels like a bad quality toy!!!! I was allready expecting some bugs but not this!!! the keypad has also a bad toy look, I'm completely regreted for falling for this phone, for 250euros I could get a best build phone

  • I believe this is the best flip phone ever made by Nokia. This is the real deal. No megapixels. No need for memory slot expansions. Just for calls and texts. It also has a radio, great for music lovers. Very stylish and elegant. I'm really having a hard time choosing between N6101 and N6060. Both phones cater people who prefer using their phones as phones. Great job, Nokia.

  • Hi could somebody please advise if they have experirenced problems receiving over 160 characters in a text on their 6101 as I have been having problems. It will only display the first 160 characters (which is the max for 1 text) and does not show additional pages or send seperate texts with the rest of the message. If you have found away of resolving this can you please reply. Thanks, Nigel.

  • I am argentine, and speek english so bad. I want to said to nokia 6101 for my opinion is beutifull, compact, and the best in perfonmance. buy now. ja jaj. thank us. leandro

  • I would like to put an analog clock screen saver on the mini display of this phone. Does anyone know how I would go about doing this? I have T-mobile. Does this matter? Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Can somebody tell me how many days is batery for Nokia 6101

  • hey all! i just got the nokia 6101 and i wanna tell you thats its really stylish and cool especially the white one! however i must say i would have wished for a bigger memory... but thats ok cuz its really lovely! i advice anyone who wants a stylish phone that can be ur lil baby... get the nokia 6101! especially white for gurlz its adorable!

  • I think the Nokia 6101 is a sleek, compact, nice looking phone. It has tons of pakced features, and if you get it on NZ's Vodafone live! plan wih preapy your all set. Maybe its space isnt huge, and the mp3 not the best, but downloading mp3 to mobile is a new feature, and will suck on all phones. The built in FM Radio is bound to be better. It has a good camera, oragniser and all sort of little goodies. It is a good price here in NZ, and I see it well worth the buy. The size (4.4mb) is from the manufactor them selves.

  • i think it is stiff to prevent the camera from turning on while the phone is in your pocket/purse

  • my 6101 keeps coming up with this (check connection settings) when i turn it on. I went through all the setting and i dont know what it's talking about!!

  • How many messages can be saved in the phones memory.

  • Hi, Can anyone here confirm to me that the 'Push To Talk'/'Camera' button on the top right-hand side of the Nokia 6101 phone is meant to be so much stiffer than all of the other buttons? Thanks in advance.

  • Beautiful looking phone, also works just as well! me and 3 of my friends have this phone :D its brilliant and i would definetly recommend it! The only thing i would ask the insurance company is that when some1 orders this product on the phone u tell them which colours it comes in and give them a choice because i didnt get 1? xxx amy xxx

  • I have the nokia 6101 for abour 3 months and it is all right. I like the look of the phone and all the functions. the only thing i have a problem with is retriving downloaded files on my phone i don't know what to do? can any one help?

  • hi.. i just got my phone recently...i'm not much impressed as i have to all my pictures just to download mp3's... but other then that i'm ok with the phone...

  • This phone is really not that bad it is better than the Motorola V180 at least the screen doesnt go blank for unusual reasons

  • Hi...just like to say that my previous phone was the Nokia 3595 and it kicked ass on this crappy 6101. The 6101 earpiece volume is horrible. I have the volume turned all the way up and it has to be dead quiet for me to hear the other person. Another thing..the reception is by far the worst. In a cell phone I want function, good reception, and good volume. The 6101 takes a better picture than it does the job of a phone. Thankfully I got the phone free. ;o)

  • This phone is nowhere even NEAR 4.4mb! i have no idea where this website got that informtion from, but that is just a plain "unfact". If you delete every phonebook contact, every picture, every game, everything you can on the phone the most you will have is 2.8 megs! which is alot less that 4.4 megs! And you'll only have 2.8 if you dont want to take any pictures, or have a phonebook or take video and all you do is listen to music! Nokia has a downloadable app. to convert your 4mb mp3's to 600KB .amb format music files to put on your phone, but even then you can put a few converted songs on your phone with really bad sound quality... or just get a new phone. Sry to Digress, but the fact is there is in no way possible for you to have anything above 2.8mb's

  • The phone is basically useless with the mp3 play coz of the 4.4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! mb memory although I haven't used this thingy It surely sucks in many ways than one

  • oh well. no bluetooth, slow functions. its really slow!!! hangs so easily!! other functions are alright. and so little memory space. ah i regret. but cheap price for a average fone i guess.

  • is there a way to change the operator logo on the 6101? i have downloaded one but cant find the option to change it

  • hi, im from panama, in central america. i just got this cel and i think its the greatest cell i 've ever had.

  • oh poor girl its normal for a new mob take easy if you wanna know more about it email me ok?? big kisses from me to ya.

  • brightness in screen doesnt work its alwase dark does anyone else have this porblem mabe i have to set somthing in settings PLEASE HELP signed:poor hot young girl in distress

  • brightness in screen doesnt work its alwase dark does anyone else have this porblem mabe i have to set somthing in settings PLEASE HELP signed:poor hot young girl in distress

  • Does anyone know how to enable the backlight on the mini screen for a longer period of time? It goes off quickly, and I can't see the screen at all. Thanks.

  • It is more than three months since i bought this phone and it is still doing it's job for me... It is a really good phone!

  • 7270 or 6101? I 'm bying also a phone and I don't know which one to choose. 7270 is 35euro more expensive than 6101, is 7270 a better buy?

  • hi ray, i'm in an allphones store and i have some at the moment (got em the other day). but hurry cause the speacial offer for these ends TODAY! i'm in morayfield, brisbane if your around that way so head to an allphones store quick otherwise you might miss out again!

  • Where can i find one is Aus? No one seems to have them?! The only place that seems to get them is ALLPHONES stores, but i always miss out when new stock arrives!!! argh! does anyone else know any supply lines? (Australia, that is)

  • So i got this cell about 2 weeks ago, and it's pretty good! i love the look n everything!i have my fav ringtone (which i downloaded) so i love this phone! ilove the color themes im always changing them,i like antenna its unique lol.

  • Oh my! I'm 13 yet I already fell in love with this phone when I saw it in the newspaper! LOL. I asked my father for this one instead of my Nokia 6600- which kind of goes crazy with my handling, hehe. It's really a crossover from solid to flip phones. I find flip phones very chic, sophisticated, and so... Asian. Haha, I don't know why, probably because since I live in the Philippines and watch a lot of Korean and Chinese dramas, find the actors/actresses using flips and I must say, they're pretty compact. If I ever get this phone, It'll be a great relief for my uniform skirt's pocket what with my iPod mini, handkerchief and wallet, I'd be able to stuff in my mobile too! Thanks, Nokia, for producing a swoon-worthy phone! XmuahX myca

  • Nokia have done it again! (in a good way, that is) The 6101 is a cute little phone, the antenna looks fine on this design (without one it would look silly), the price is maybe a little steep at the moment for the amount of features but i assume it will drop for xmas. The memory is appropriate for the features. It is obviously a phone for those who dont need or want all the bells n whistles ie. bluetooth, mp3 player, megapixel etc. Nice phone.

  • The6101 is the most popular nokia, i think, since the 3200. I mean, the 8800 was popular for a bit, so was the last fashion range, but not in this way. This is like "everybody has one" type of popular. Its pandemonium. They have been on backorder for weeks. The demand is phenomonally high!!

  • I just purchased the 6101 last Friday. It had been awhile since I had a cell and I have to say, I was impressed, I have never been much of a Nokia fan, but the ease of use and features of this are great. However, I would really like to be able to play some Texas Hold'em on my phone, does anyone know where you can download and buy Java apps/Games for this phone?

  • Short shared memory(4.4 MB) and an unattractive design because of the antenna presence.

  • i just got this phone a little over a week ago, and i love it. it is simple to used and does what i need it to. the sound quality is awesome, listening to the radio at full blast on the speaker sounds very good. one thing i cant figure out is how to customize the menu screen... i dont think you can tho. i also would like bluetooth, and better memory, but oh well. i still think that this phone is great; reception is awesome, and battery life is excellent. 8.5 out of 10

  • Hello, I am from India. I am currently using Sony Ericsson Z200 and I went to buy Nokia 6101 but landed myself in a predicament, I saw the new Sony Ericsson Z250i which boasts of 9hrs talk time. My primary concern is the Battery life, I send abt 40 sms average per day and spend a lot of time on the phone. How is the batt life of 6101 and compared to ZE Z250i? Thanks for all the help. Cheers, - Abhi.

  • Its a very nice looking phone...can someone please tell me which types of adapter cable..(to transfer files from this phone to my pc due to its limited memory) is compatible with this phone? thanx..

  • Features are good but the memory is not appropriate. The price is litile high according to the features.

  • I just received my 6101 today. So far its been great. I'm a VERY devoted Motorola fan and didn't really like Nokia much. This phone IS nice though. The screen isn't as nice as moto, otherwise the quality overall isn't too bad. I like the features. I've got my MP3 ringtone on it already, it sounds great. I must say, its one of the loudest phones I've come accross. I had to cancel my internet plan for my ipaq phone because I'm losing my job in ten days. I was going to buy a moto, but this phone was free, so what the heck, I just took it. Until moto makes my dream razr pda flip phone with wifi, this phone is definitely worth sticking with. I think Nokia fans will most definitely enjoy this one.

  • I have just purchased a Nokia 6101 handset and I must say that I am quite pleased with it so far. However, I have noticed that if a person sends a text message to your number, there is no reply to sender option. Maybe I'm not applying the phone correctly, do advice on how to go about this. THUMBS UP FOR NOKIA!

  • this phone is great. the phone has been great scince the day i got it and hasn't changed. i can't think of one bad thing to say about the phone. i would strongly recomend this phone to anyone who needs a sterdy phone that will never give up!!!!

  • its 11pm at nite and in 12 hours time im buying this fone - someone PLEASE TELL ME, is it worth the $399 outright price tag (im gonna bargain them down to 370-380)

  • This phone is crap. Don't buy it. In the last 5 weeks, I owned this phone, 3 weeks it was with the service center. The date/time resets itself and the camera dead in 10 days. Still the issue exist with the date problem. Can other users confirm whether you are having the problem with date and time?

  • I have done alot of research bout the phone cos u cant jus go in a but it! U cant rely on other peoples opinion cos dere all different but my view iz dat dis fone is much betta dan previous phones such as the motorola c650 and i should and everybody else should be grateful that it has all thoes function. No bluetooth! oh well cos if was neva created u wudnt be complaining.Yes it does have a small memory but i suggest that you check out the motorola c650 memory and then the nokia 6101 memory and decides whatz betta. Quite frankly im staisfied and happy with dis fone and if ur not den u avent dun careful proceedures to looking afda ur fone!! if da paint of ur fone is chipped den u must ave dun sumtin 2 get it chipped. Nokia r successful and wudnt create a fone 2 create upset 4 itz customers! rememba dat!

  • I bought the 6101 this Friday, October 14th. I was just about to but the new Razor but the sales lady told me NOT to but the Razor, because a few people had bought the Razor from her and came back shortly after saying they had BROKE their new phone! So, I bought the 6101, seeing I just had the Nokia 610, and LOVED the FM radio. Once I found out this phone also had a radio, and it was a flip.. I was sold. So I got the 6101 home, and my best-friend and I has a blast taking pictures and small video clips with it! The only downside? I can't take pictures at night, at all. But the other people who complain about the poor sound? Yeah right! The sound on this phone is great, a truly great sound from talking and the radio too. I can not believe all the haters who say to buy the Moto Razor, I've had so many SALES PEOPLE tell me not to buy the Razor I can not believe sales people would tell me not to buy the Razor, and they risk losing a sale too, b/c the 6101 is cheaper! I say get the 6101, it is a great phone for the money you will pay. ($150.00 w/ T-Mobile agreement) jam

  • Good phone. Not great. I think Nokia should come up with a model called 6202. Same design as the 6101 but: A display with a higher amount of colours. They should try 2 push that 2 1 million or higher. A two or more megapixal camera WITH ZOOM. Way more memory!! If Nokia makes a phone like this every one would chuck out their 6101 and go for this phone. Your almost there Nokia. This is a great LOOKING phone. Try 2 work on improving the features. 6/10

  • i bought this phone last two weeks..N I gotta say this phone is simply sleek and sexy looking.Most of its features are fine especially its cute looking keypad...The only problem i had with it is the little memory space.its too small for a phone that supports mp3 files..at least a memory card slot would be gd...but too bad there isn't.. Overall i'm quite disappointed with this phone because i really love its design n thought it would be the ideal and perfect phone for me..however the memory is just plain sucky..

  • Wow... This is the worst phone around! Not even worth spending a penny on it. This dealer told me it was the best but, I found that it's camera has no zoom, paint chips off, slow os, and copied other phones to make it. I switched to Motorola Razr V3, trust me, it's better to spend your money on something else then this retarted phone!

  • I just got the 6101 in replacement of my old cranky phone. So far it's been great, nothing wrong. and i'm obsessed with it esp the design. only one bad thing is that the cam has no zoom. but i think the quality is rather decent. of course if you want fantastic quality i suggest you go use a proper camera. oh and it needs more space. i wouldn't need it to hold the amount a mp3 player can, that's what mp3 players are for. this is a PHONE.

  • hey emily... thx alot ur advice realy helped! i appreciate it!

  • i hope all of the bad things about this phone are NOT true because I just bought it from t-mobile. It seems to have a lot of things on that why i found it appealing. I hope you guys are lying.

  • hey everyone.... i need an advice about which phone i should buy im confused between the nokia 6101 or the samsung e530 plz i need help i dunno which one to get! which one is better?.. plz reply if u know which one is better

  • i wanna know, is this fone worth buying? its taken me ages to save and im buying a new nokia, but i want a good one.

  • I bought this cell last week and i gotta say that it�s pure c**p, i got stolen the second day i bought it by some no-life kid, it looks fancy but the operating system sucks among many other things, slowest OS i�ve ever had on a cell!!

  • I bought an american 6101 at t-mobile. 1.I have also the problem as many 6101 users taht the camera as i make a photo on night mode it takes the picture in day mode. 2.My menu is also slow of 1-2sec as i enter it. But my questions refer to you. I would like to upload all the real Nokia Games, Wallpers, Sounds etc.. to the phone and delet the t-mobile ones.Can anybody help me where to find them. Thanks Gabor ps:Where can I give the newest software on the phone?

  • I got the nokia 6101 last month havent had any problems with it yet!! It's doin great, I have the black one love the black it's sleek looking!!! but a little suggestion I bought a attenna booster and the signal is now perfect in stores and elevators!!! thanks

  • This phone is not much good,,Ok it looks good but it is a poorly made phone.After a while the flip part gets very loose.Some of the keys become loose and others get stuck. It has a terrible memory that you have to share with everything else on the phone.1 tiny mp3 and the memory is full.It will not work inside a shopping center.It has 4 default crappy jap ringtones and that is all. The camera is poor (no ZOOm)quality of photo is poor.Nite time don't bother trying. The case scratches so easily almost like the paint still aint dry.After a while the plastic starts to delaminate around the ariel and the chromr fades back to black plastic really fast and then it don't look all that nice anymore. spend an extra few bucks and buy a Motorola 535 or a Motorola razr V3.I am not usually a Motorola fan but these 2 modells are brilliant and leave the 6101 for dead.They both have heaps of memory and do everything better except suck,,,the Nokia 6101 does that better.

  • when i saw it, It's just a fancy, lousy phone! AND LOOK IT HAS AN ANTENA!! so cheap.

  • What is the storage capacity of this phone? I need a phone that can store >100 messages at least, and crazy as it may seem, my current phone - less than 1 year old- doesn't even do that!

  • i bought the phone for a couple of months already and recently the screen began to have some problem. When I flip the phone open, the lights of the screen and keypad will keep flickering and blackout. Just wondering if any of you who owns this phone had encounter things like this.

  • I bought an american 6101 at t-mobile. 1.I have also the problem as many 6101 users taht the camera as i make a photo on night mode it takes the picture in day mode. 2.My menu is also slow of 1-2sec as i enter it.

  • Great Phone. Best i have ever had. There hasn't been a problem yet. The speaker and ear piece is fine, and im partially deaf, so that is syaing soemthing!!!!!! The camera is so good, im using it as a proper camera now. The battery life is alright. The keys are the best. they actually are "human-size." Its lite, its small, its perfect

  • dun u think the screen too small? I like the design but the screen so small. When I wanna take photo, the viewfinder so small, dunno how 2 see.

  • NEVER EVER buy this phone. 6101 looks fancy but nothing is what it seems. The sound level of the phone speaker is very very low. You never understand anything in a crowded place or cafe. And also the sound level of the earphone is too low while listening the radio. This is a real design mistake. I will not trust nokia anymore. If you read the other reviews, you can see the other people complain about this. So what is a phone for? talking.. But you can't talk with this phone. Trust me and don't spend your money on this crappy machine.

  • This phone's design is great. I love it. I received this phone a few days ago and only have two problems with it: 1. There is a delay after pressing the menu key 2. When you clase the flip, all applications do not stop Add Bluetooth and a bigger memory and you will have the perfect cell.

  • Very good phone! Maybe there should be some more features as bluetooth for aexample. Now I`v been using my 6101 for almost two months and there haven`t been any problems at all. In my opinion handsfree works quite good and I use it a lot.

  • this phone sucks big time..... horrible reception, crappy camera. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!!!

  • I had a look at this phone when I was in the market - I have had Nokias before, which I have alway rated highly, but in my humble opinion this phone looks and feels cheap and nasty. The graphics are ordinary and the external aerial is tacky.

  • I just wanted to know how the handsfree sounds. does it really work? because most of them are not really useful... thanks

  • can i use MIDI-based polyphonic, MP3 files, NB-AMR and WB-AMR (True Tones) audio clips as message alert tone??

  • I think it is a great phone one nokia built I have not had a single problem the sound is great and so is the rest of the features only wish it was bluetooth

  • it this phone a good choice, how long is the voice recording and video taking. and is the video taking show a clear picture and are the pictures taking clear. Please email me back soon

  • I bought this phone for $ 150 and I am loving it! Best Phone i've ever had!

  • I bought a 6101 recently, had to buy the black one , bcos white was not available. it looks good, but the build quality is not upto mark, . The navigation keys sound hollow. also the sound on the phone is not great..need to strain to listen in heavy traffic,or have use the ear phones. The Loudspeaker is good for handsfree operation..so are the large keys ..(i bought this phone for the keys..my thumb feels much better now , even after all the sms I send..my previous phone was t-100 from SE,which had small keys). Camera and main display are better compared to previous nokias(forget about the quality of the mini display on the front panel..its for displaying the caller id)..but not as good as sony ericsson..The reception is also great ..thanks to the external antenna..The phone stands out in the crowd ..due to its unique design.."good looking clamshell from Nokia..that too with an antenna"...its a hit in my office.. The phone design typical SE Asian..may be made with these markets in mind..reminds me of the phones in Japan..the camera position on the front panel is typical Japanese..they shoot self potraits and mail it .. Buy it if you want a clamshell nokia..with great reception (thanks to the antenna)..the other features are all commomplace..for me its my first Nokia..I am not complaining either......Ramu Nair

  • I love the phone. Easy to read menu of who you want to call.Nice size numbers to dial. To one who asked about radio. Headphones have to be plugged in then go to radio. Let headset plugged in and You can turn on speaker phone to hear. Also you can still recieve calls it will shut off radio and you answer phone. Now Con for me.Cannot assign different ring tones to different people . Only able to assign them to groups.

  • Hey guys for anyonethinking about buying this it is a bad idea! Bat life blows!!

  • what is the maximum time of voice recording?

  • hope it has blutooth,that is the only features lacking.. =( and have a sufficient phone memory.. if u want to donat a phone email me.. =)

  • Maybe I am going to buy this phone, but I am So confused because I don't know if the speakerphone is good to hear the radio or talk. This is very important to me, because I dream about a clamshell phone how I can hear the radio with the speakerphone clearly. Something reponse me here or to my mail. thanks

  • Nice phone. Whats different between the Nokia 6101 and 6102? I'm a bit confused on this. Thankyou, Jamie

  • Ignore the question below. The text was too small,the volume from the ear-piece and speaker-phone was too low and the screen was too small.Soooo I returned it and got another Motorola V551 like mine.......Thanks anyway.......

  • Hi...Someone posted you can "hang up" when using the speaker-phone on the 6101 by using the camera button (button above infrared window).What's the trick, I can't get my wifes to work????Thanks

  • Don't like it!! it does not worth to be kept with any one. i don't like it at all. Coz there is nothing in it to pay such an amount like $ 300 for the stupid machine. better consider something else than buy this like 700i of Sony Erickson

  • Hi. I'm from Vietnam. Just got this cute stuff 2day from my boyfriend. Luv everything of it thou it's a little bit thicker compared to my old SS S500. Could be perfect if has MMC card slot.And it's white! We've got plenty of white here at the price of about 230$. I tried the black one but it is true that it is very finger-print friendly.

  • Virgin sell them for $120

  • ok i received my phone today. i like it. its nice. except, i dont know how to use the radio. it came with a free headset earpiece but it doesnt plug right..maybe they sent a wrong one. i dont know. but its a nice phone..just got to get used to the features.

  • just bought this phone in white from Next Mobile in QLD Aust. I bought it online and they sent it down to me. these guys are the only one is Australia who are selling them in white so if you want a white one give them a buzz. Only cost me $400!! So far so good, havent had any problems with it and its such a hot phone especially in the white.

  • I've heard complaints about the earpiece volume. What are everybody's thoughts?

  • how do you change the font size in the text messaging? And another thing, let say you are in the inbox and you close the phone and open it again, the screen still shows the inbox, can you make it automatically go to the main menu just like all samsung phone?

  • hi!ı dont buy it yet but ım thinking to buy it this weekend bat ı cant decided which one ıs beter the whıte one or black one ı like the black one much ı thihk. ı saw this phone only ın the pıx.anyone who saw this phone from near please tell me which one is better the white one or the black one?

  • Can you customize the ringtones for different callers?

  • ey leathal michael the phone cost $1100

  • yes, you can talk on the speakerphone while the phone is closed. You can hang up by holding down the right button key, just above the infrared.

  • You can only change the font size of text messages, and mms from small, med. to large. It wont change any menu, or numbers.

  • is it true you can change the font size? if yes, what about the numbers when dialing? can you change the size too?

  • we bough this phone in white for my little sister....on the internet the colour white looks like a silverish white...but its like WHITE white. The phone is nice, but the external screen is absalute crap. and the video resolution isnt high enough

  • I have just ordered this phone as a upgrade... was going to order the motorola v3 but was told it didn't have a very big memory..... meaning i couldn't store too many mm's.as im a nokia user anyway i went with the nokia 6101 but when i looked at it memory it says its smaller.... im a bit confused now.... my nokia 6610i stored loads of txts, mm's and photo's.... could any 1 help me please xx

  • Ive just got one of these in the last couple of days and am trying to sync it to my calender in Outlook 2003 (Running Win XP). I have used both the DKU-5 cable as well as IR and in both instances, the phone will not upload anything from my PC. I have tried this on several PC's and no luck in any instances. Im using Nokia PC Sync 6.6 Any one having the same problem? Any help will be appretiated. Thanks

  • can you talk on the loudspeaker when it's closed?

  • do the mp3 tracks have to be used as ringtones, or can you just listen to them whenever you want like an actual mp3 player?

  • can this phone be bought prepaid, or does it have to be with a plan?

  • I don't get it - Nokia advertise this as a music phone. But with just 4Mb's of memory for everything and no card slot they have to be kidding. The ad has some girl with headphones and some guy saying "Love your music"

  • rip off

  • who can tell me how to use the built-in-handfree, i can talk without the headset.

  • Frankly, this is actually 7270 in new cheaper body. I find external antenna annoy me a lot especially when I have to squeeze it into a jeans pocket. When I sit, I can feel the antenna constantly poking me. Nice girly look. Overall, a budget phone with big features.

  • Hi! I'm interested in this phone but please tell me something about the battery stand-by time and something about working with this phone..I think it's a great looking one but I want to be sure it's high quality!Thanx!

  • if this phone records video then how long is it for? is it good quality afterwards when watching? thanx

  • My husband is going to buy me this phone and i am soo soo happy because i can use the FM redio at home when i am alone....How happy i am

  • Can you Answer the Phone and put it on loudspeaker without opening the Clam Shell?

  • i just bought one of these phones and i have a small problem with it, i cant seem to get the vibrate to work. Everything is enabled so it should vibrate, but it doesnt!! any help would be greatly appriciated.

  • i bought this phone 2 weeks ago... after usage i can say that this is a great deal... a top notch nokia clamshell... although, there are some stuff to have in mind when you buy this: 1.- 3 megs... take about 20-30 pics and the phone will start complaining about memory (no SD) 2.- that black surface at the phone is very finger-print friendly 3.- phone menus a bit slow... nothing to worry about anyhow 4.-if you want to make the phone 'shine' prepare some software to upload wallpapers of your own.... those bundled themes and walls just plain suck 5.- the ring tones played with the highest volume possible arent enough noisy outdoor (6100 was noisy as hell) i upgrade to 6101 from 6100... and this phone is great

  • YES, You can use radio while phone is in closed state

  • one more question here...can you listen to the radio with the hinge closed?

  • Oh i've got a question here! when i receive file from friends via infared ie recordings, the file format is usually .EXT so i cant use it as my alarm or send a mms with it. how do change the file format? is it possible? or a way to receive the normal format. Am i the only one having this problem?

  • thanks Soldaat .. really appreciate the help ..

  • I just got the phone yesterday, I love it! However, when I was scrolling through the setting, my screen just froze, the bottoms stop responding and the light turns off. So did my phone break or is this a security lock or whatever... please help

  • i want to buy this phone in a couple of days. i'm changing my 6230 for it...is it worth it? i really don't need all the big memory 6230 has so i don't think the small one this has should be a problem but i'm kinda used to bluetooth...and i have a question. does this phone have wap?!

  • bought it last aug 13, so far the hinge's doin good, still tight. love it! although the memory's kinda small

  • When ur busy with something in the menu, of typing sms, etc. then closing and opening the phone doesn't change anything It will stay where you left it. To silence an incoming call, press one of the volume buttons on the left side.

  • hey there .. i have been having this problem .. i cant seem to decide betweern the 6101 and the 6230i .. i know the later has everything one could want in a phone .. and the former has its flaws ... but it looks amazing .. i only have a few questions .. first .. is it true that while your in the menu somewhere and you flip the phone closed .. when you flip it back .. are you where you left or are you back in the main menu ?? second ... while your getting a call .. is there anyway to make the phone silent ??? even if it means that we have to open the flip ??? pleSe .. anyone who has the phone ... please let me know .. i really want to buy this phone ... thanks ..

  • Can anyone who has had the phone for a few weeks give us an update on the hinge mechanism? Is it still tight or has it become loose & wobble? Let us know.

  • Hi everyone, i just got my 6101 last sunday, i like the design sooooo much!!!!! but i found 3 problems in my phone, i don't know if those things are normal. 1st: every thing are slow in 6101,from the idle mode go to the main menu, it will delay about a second or more. 2nd: this is the major problem, is about the night mode of this phone, when you taking picture at the dark area (of course not totaly dark) you should activate night mode, is clear and bright before you take the pic during night mode, but after you captured it, there is no night mode effect, just like the pic taken from the normal mode!!! is that normal, or there is something problem about my phone. 3rd: if you open and close the phone several time, the open and close mechanic of the phone will become soft and not hard as when the time you purchase the phone. anyone encountered the same problem as me? is there something wrong with my phone, or is just normal sickness of 6101, anyone pls reply thankx alot!!!! im very worried =(

  • Why the hell would you care if you can put songs on the phone or not? - If that's what you're looking for then go get an iPod and shut up!! Gosh...

  • Can anyone tell me if it has the option to have the text enlarged

  • Oooooh! how do ya tranfer pics using infer-red?

  • you can transfer pics to ur computer! thru infra-red!

  • PPT means Push to Talk, a service which is supported by provider allow user use his mobile as a Walkie-talkie !!!

  • I brought 6010, three days before and i liked the phone. can some tell me what is PPT in this.

  • Nice little phone but does not use a standard nokia charger?

  • I have just purchased this phone - my first Nokia and am very pleased. However can anyone tell me... When you close the flip cover and open it again, it is in the last place you used it (i.e messages etc). How can I set it to go back to the main screen? The other question is once I've sent a text message and go back to the main screen, when I go back to messages the previous message I sent is still there - does this no cancel when you back to the main menu? I'd appreciate if anyone can tell me how to resolve this thanks Scoorie

  • thanks 'Gonz' thats pretty crappy you cant transfer stuff to the computer. but the doesnt sound right, cause theirs a connecting a cable and you'd think that'd let you be able to do it...meh anyways, im looking into the nokia 6020 now, flip phones seem to have a fair amount of trouble with them :)

  • how to use this PTT feature?

  • where can you get low memory mp3 songs, themes, and screensavers for this phone? what sites? does this phone support wav tones? thanks!

  • Toni, Yeah, you can't hear the person on the other end. Nope, you can't transfer images from the phone to your computer. Sorry. This phone is just a no-nonsense-phone. You call, they call but you can't hear them. That's the only thing there is to it. And its sooooooo big.

  • I got this for a birthday present. Kind of silly thing to do I thought ... no MMC slot no mp3 player and no memory either. Even though I tried selling it now I take my thoughts back ... damn this thing looks sexyyy!!! Whoever I showed this fone went "wooaaahhh coooool" ... Im in Pakistan and this set isnt popular here. Still i may exchange this with a 6670 cus im getting it cheap or else I LOVE IT! One question though ... in the review u get the shake with one hand close thingy, is it TOTALLY SAFE ? Ive done that a lot of times havent had problems but this thing is jus a month old mind u ... Also yea please please please post a link for themes ... would be veryyy thankful. Its an excellent fone if you are looking for an elegant looking mobile ... make that a sexy looking mobile!

  • This is truly a great girly phone. Easy to use and looks very posh. The only flaw would be the small memory.

  • Got this fone 4 my bday yesterday and so far i think its great! However it was advertised as having mp3 ringtones, so i thought i wud b able 2 record my own somehow, but i cant find any way of doing this other than using the record function but then they come out fuzzy sounding, anybody got any tips? thnx

  • i really like nokia phones. i have always use nokia phones coz its fast.im thinking of getting nokia 6101 and wats the " push to talk" anyway ?? im still deciding whether to get a black or white one?? please help me to decide and give me advice

  • COME ON for the phone's battery to last longer the first 3 or 5 charges should be like: completely drain out battery, then charge for 6-8 hours. This warm-up procedure will help your phone battery to last longer. Mine lasts for 5-6 days. This phone is superb!

  • Im thinkng of buying the white nokia 6101 from Next Mobile as they seem to be the only place in Aust that have it in white. Has anyone every bought anything from these guys before?

  • outer screen went blank (well, blue) again!!! and inner screen is going bananas too: it's going white every other second... and that for about 30 times!!! cryyyyyyyyy

  • to 'Rietta Carter' i dont know if you have read any of the other peoples post, but a couple people have gaven websites to buy the white version as far as i know though, they're not selling white in shops as yet and i dont know why that is

  • mate, b digital sell the white and black color ! but still this phone doesn`t have a snake game like my nokia 8250.

  • I am currently looking for a new phone I thought I had found it in the 6101. I am a bit disappointed as they only come in black. Can you tell me why in Australia they only have the black and overseas they have both. Thankyou Rietta

  • I think strathfield or B shop stock the white one (cant remember which one), just like they stocked the white 7260. Looks pretty need, but the phone itself seems flimsy. Each to their own

  • If you use the phone a lot the battery tends to drain a little quicker than if it were just sitting and collecting dust. duh... if you don't want the battery to drain... don't play with it.

  • Hi! my battery only lasts three days, and if i play golf or take videos, only about one day! i'm going to do nothinhg with it now except for making txt messages and calling, i wonder how long the battery will last... also, when i just had this phone, the outer screen went bananas sometimes and the inner screen went blank several times. then i let the battery drop till it was empty, recharged it, and now it works like a dream! (knock on wood)

  • thanks a bunch 'Lisa'

  • Nextmobile stock it in white:

  • to 'Me' do you live in australia? if you do, where did you get the white one from?

  • i've bought this phone 3 days ago, and I must say this is a good phone if you need capture few pictures, listen to radio, and enjoy long-lasting battery life. I had nokia 6230 before, it was a really superb phone, but having all the things [i mean mp3, radio, video etc.] in one phone just may cause some software errors. Buy this if you are looking for stylish flip-phone, cause it is really worth it. My rating : 8/10

  • perfect !!except........bluetooth

  • I just recieved this phone today, really like it. I got sent a white one as well, very nice. Easy to use and the camera quality is good. Very happy :o)

  • I got this phone last friday and am pleased so far but have a few questions. How do I make it so the mini display is always bright and not dimmed, I like to check the time often and dont want to open the phone to see it. Also, is there a better guide to the camera, when I go to options I don't know what half the options are. The manual doesn't explain a lot and I have a bunch of questions about some of the settings I want to change. It is a very good phone though, great battery life and the flip is very sturdy

  • hi! i buyed the phone 3 weeks ago, its a good phone nice design, good batery life, unexpectedly long , about 5 days, but i have a problem , if anybody can help me .... i cant send ringtones via mms, it say FILE FORMAT NOT SUPORTED, i tried .midi .mp3 .amr,tones from my computer, the original sound is copyrighted. thanck you!

  • is this phone worth buying? anyone having problems with the swivel portion of this phone? and are there creaking sounds? pls help. thanks!

  • Hi Really love my new phone - easy to navigate, great picture quality, reasonably good sound quality etc. Only problewm is that no-one I call can hear me although I can hear them. Can anyone help me please???

  • THis phone is selling like hot cakes!!! I love it and so do the people!!

  • "Gonz" Mine has the option of WAP but keeps coming up with the message (Subscribe to GPRS first) O2 said they were sending me the settings last Monday & there was no probs but it didn't come through got to www.kondor.co.uk for handset manager software downloads. That's what I did & aint to bothered about lack of WAP or GPRS now :^D

  • I finally got my phone yesterday, and was a bit disappointed with the screen display, but overall it is a good little phone with all your basic features. One thing I am having difficulty with is how to get an mp3 as a ringtone. I cant find anyting in the user guide. Can anyone tell me how I can get an mp3 song from my computer, onto my phone for use as a ringtone? Thumbs up to nokia on this flip phone.

  • so 'johnny 1989' and 'gonz' your saying trying to talk to someone on the other end, its difficult for you to hear them? and because its not GPRS or WAP capable its still got stuff on the phone so you can transfer images etc on to the computer right?

  • Hi Johnny 1989, Cant really hear the person I talk to on the other line, really. I'm always out and I get calls all the time so the ear volume is really important to me. This phone is not GPRS or WAP capable. And for those who cant change from list menu to grid menu, just go to menu, go to settings, go to display settings, then look for menu view. Press select and you would be able to choose from list to grid menu. Have fun! :)

  • A pity I was told that Nokia has no intention to sell anymore white sets for 6101 at the moment in Singapore and we just have to be contented with the black ones. Though a few white sets have been seen around the shops (those without phone plans) but they are really rare. If you are lucky, you may be able to get one. I just ordered myself a black one at quite a good price, though I really love the white one actually. Well, a compromise of colour for price. I can't complain much...

  • Can anyone tell me if the white model is available in singapore?

  • "Gonz" I noticed this too it's a total bugger to listen to someone sometimes. However Mobile Choice (A Mobile phone magazine here in the UK) gave it 4 out of 5 so it can't be that bad. Still waiting for Picture message / GPRS settings but have got handset manager software so can download pictures to PC :^D

  • People, listen. No matter how loud you adjust the ear volume, you can't hear the person you are talking to on the other end. Its so totally frustrating.

  • What's with the antenna? All nokia phone have no antenna except for this one. And as if they haven't learned, the soon to be released 6060, which is also a clampshell type phone, also have an antenna. And worse, if you don't want to answer a incoming call, you still have to open the phone and quickly press the red button in order to reject the call otherwise the phone will connect automatically. For Samsung phone, you just press the volume button found on the side of the phone if you want to reject a call which is more convenient. This phone is not selling well here in the Philippine. it's big compared to other clamp type phone namely samsung. Nokia still has a long way to go when it comes to clampshell phone. Better go back to the drwaing board.

  • It's tri-band but sadly no bluetooth, hence the cheap price on this model. Nice model, prolly gonna get it for my mum =)

  • yes it's quite nice clamshell phone from nokia and i am thinking may be to buy this phone . but one question . that about themes . i am asking because now a have set630 and for this phone are a lot of free very nice themes, also you can create your own theme and so on. that about this nokia themes. it is possible to change themes and download free from somewhere like in set630, o just only change menu colour and thats all ???

  • I really love this handset. It's so compact, I've been able to squeeze it into alot of tight places.

  • Does this phone has bluetooth and is it tri band?

  • hcs, yes you can! my outer screen went blank just after a few hours!!!!!!!! then it showed some black with coloured stripes, and then it went back normal. what do to about this??? should i be afraid? will this pass and can be due to the lack of battery? (i didn't charge it, just put it on and then waited for the battery to drop to fully recharge). or go back to the store? plz help me out!!!!

  • Can anyone help out ? Can you use the voice recorder to record your own voice and use it as a ringtone? Just like the way that can be done with nokia 6170 and 7270. thanks.

  • To those who replied, thanks got the grid view & also got my voicemail working. As for GPRS thanks for the link I will try that out tonight when i get home

  • to 'Swedish owner' you said its easy putting pics etc on the computer how do you do it? do you use the connecting cable? or something else?

  • well l got my new nokia 6101 on sat and l reckon its good but theres a few features im disappointed with.the video recorder is bad as well as the mini screen on front but besides from that then its perfect.

  • I have a black 6101 and I adore it! It�s beautyful! The camera was better than I hoped and the radio is fine! About the memory, its not so interesting when it�s so easy to connect to a computer and download pics etc. Best regards!

  • "Johnny 1989" you're searching too far for the "Grid/list"-option... From the standby screen, press "Menu". When you see the list of menu, press the top-left key. In there you can change the list/grid view.

  • to 'Johnny 1989' on the nokia australia website it tells you how to get the GPRS working: ­

  • Hi I have got the phone & I am really pleased with it however I have a few probs with it: *Mark says that you can change the menu to grid settings however on mine it goes the following: Menu>setting>main display> and I can select from : wallpaper, screensaver, power saver, colour schemes, idle state font colour, operator logo. But no mention of menu view * I cant seem to get my GPRS to work it says I need to subscribe to it but how?

  • I saw it today!!! It looks great, but still it's to expensiv...I don't know what to do - i mean - wait and buy for example V3(when it will be cheaper) and mp3 player with radio or buy 6101 which has built in radio??? Please help

  • To be honest even if it's only slightly better than the 6610i I will purchase it. The design did attract me to it & the new screen & better camera quality (even though not much better but improvement over 6610i)is enought to sway me as I only really use mine for calls, texting & th eodd picture taking. One final question, with the 6610i the images taken had a kind of "fish eye" lens so any straight lines on the picture would curve inwards, doe sthis happen on the 6101?

  • >> The camera of the Nokia 6101 is slightly better than the Nokia 3200 (from CIF to VGA-quality). But still you can't zoom before taking a picture. Only afterwards. >> The Nokia 6610i quite a good mobile, the 6101 doesn't really "upgrade" your old 6610i, but the pro's of taking the 6101 over your old 6610i are: - bigger & better screen; - better polyphonic sounds (mp3 = bad); - camera is also slightly better (CIF to VGA-quality); So if you like the 6101 design (which is incomparable with the 6610i), you can switch over to that one. The phone isn't really that expensive, a bit comparable with the release of the 6610i back then. >> The standby time depends on how often you make calls, listen to radio, etc. ofcourse; but I ussually charge my phone every 3 days.

  • Hi, I'm considering updating from my Nokia 3200 to the Nokia 6101 - can anyone tell me if the camera is any better?? and can you zoom before you take the pic?? the 3200 couldnt, you could only zoom after you took the photo. Any help would be appreciated, thanks

  • how many hours it stands in Stand-by, i want to know, pls tell me someone

  • thanks jen. with this website. can you buy the phone right out, or do you have to buy it on a plan? how much is it? and when is it avaliable? most of all is this website safe?, it doesnt seem all the safe

  • To Mark or whoever else has this phone. Is it better than the Nokia 6610i (which is my current phone) & I'm not about just looks, in general The cheapest I have seen is in Argos on o2 for �129.99 pay as you go but that is in white only, dearest over here: Carphone Warehouse, sim free �199.99. However I'm sure Carphone Warehouse can do better deals that that :^D So would you guys recommended it for someone who has an ageing 6610i (I have had the 6610i since July 2004 so it has served me well)

  • Katie: If you're at the shop to buy the Nokia 6101. Ask to see them both, before buying. I did and compared the black and white version at the counter. My decision was eventually the black one. I'm sure if you put them next to each other, you can easily make a decision. Goodluck!

  • katie: i advise u to get e black version. e black surface looks more elegant, tho fingerprints may be clearly visible on it dan on the white one..but u cn wipe e fingerprints away.. howeva for the white one, a salesperson said it wud turn yellowish aft some time, esp if it is in contact w oily fingers..u wudnt want ur hp2turn yellow ryt?

  • Im buying this fone for me b'day anf i think its one of the best looking fone ive ever seen! do u recomend this fone for me? im turnin 13 and iim a girl also black or silver i like th black better but the silver might be better so can sumone post bak!

  • Hi Toni - Yes you can buy the white 6101 in Australia - exclusively through BDigital. I'm buying one myself. Call the sales line on 13 33 44.

  • hey guys...my gf does bot her 6101..its black..i noe dere's talk abt visible fingerprints left behind on e black surface..but dose can be cleaned off..e person bhind e counter said for e white one, e white surface may turn yellowish aft some time(which most probably is irreversible..) Consider guys!

  • Nice post Mark. It is true, ONLY the mp3's sound bad. Radio, polyphonic ringtones are good!

  • I like the phone but there are certain sound problems, sound cracks often.Sound hearing volume is also low so it would say the simple nokia models like 3510i are excellent compared to all this new shit. To whoever asked: yes you can take a photo and place it as your wallpaper. The battery is excellent.

  • Just want to clear up some things for the people who are having queries about the phone. I've had my Nokia 6101 for a week exactly now. Do i still feel impressed by the phone - no. Why? Purely because i'm just bored with the phone. I do get bored quite easily and i do like change so maybe its just me. However the phone has an awful lot going for it. It's great when the phone rings in public and people hear the traditional Nokia ringtone. When i whip the phone out people look and ownder what phone it is i have because its so unlike a Nokia. Clearly its impressive to the onlooker. As someone else pointed out, i have yet to have software problems with the phone - no crashing no failures in any way. Very good! Battery life is brilliant. Holds for days i haven't charged for 3 days - with use of radio and video recording and i have only dropped one bar. Someone asked about the external screen - it shows the signal level, battery meter and time as well as the network name. And yes, you can assign any picture you have taken as a wallpaper for the intenal AND external display. Although most pictures dont look great set on the outside. (4096 colours anyone?) Sturdy build etc looks great, semi-good features, but poor memory as EVERYONE has mentioned. I'm getting annoyed with people writng on this forum 'Nokia 6101, crap memory not getting it'. Well thats great news but we didn't really need to hear it. If your going to write something at least let it be constructive ok. So to finish - this will probably be my last post - the Nokia 6101 is a goodlooking clamshell phone with rubbish memory, and bad pre-installed wallpapers. I have resulted in taking my own pictures for wallpapers because it looks much better. The menu style is rubbish compared to other handsets such as Samsung and video quality and sound isn't the best. However this phone does make up for its downfalls with features such as radio, camera, video recording - though poor, external display, rather customisable and great looks. Thats the 6101 then. Thanks for reading. Mark.

  • has anyone found an AUSTRALIAN place that sells it in white

  • hi! based on all opinions, i realised that there are a number of bad comments on the speaker's quality. is it only for MP3 or even polyphonic? another question is, will i be able to listen to my mp3s using the headset given?

  • Just saw it in white. Quite big, not as nice as i thought. Won't buy it,will wait for the 6111

  • For the price (australia $400) it is well priced, but it remains a pretty simple phone that just looks nice.

  • Good one Nokia just copy Motorola next time. Looks exactly like the V550! You'd think they come up with something ORIGINAL.

  • hey its sam again im just wonderin cuz im gettin my new fone next week sometime and l wanted 2 no if u can take a photo and place it on ur wallpaper and then will it show on the little dispaly screen on front?????well l hope it can.whats on the little dispay screen aswell?well let me no plz

  • Ya hi this phone is pretty good it has alot of features like a camera and everything but when is this phone going to be out on the market?? Will there be any differnet kinds of phone covers or is there going to be just black and silver??

  • hi, the nokia 6101 looks a really good fone it was released from virgin today i fink i have been chasing this fone for a while and its finally come to virgin! but ive been reading some bad press about it like bad quality sound and v poor memory space, virgin claims it has 16mb but im not sure thats true they've been rong in the past but its going for �149 and i could get a sony ericsson k700i for �129 which should i get? (im leaning towards the nokia as i do like clamshell fones) plz help!

  • Well, almost a week has been past since I've got this phone. My opinion hasn't changed much, since the first impression i've had. The phone is still very nice to look at (black version), I don't mind the fingerprints anymore... :-p The usage is good and no (software) problems encountered this past week. I paid 250 euro's for it... Normal price here in The Netherlands, a bit expensive. But don't pay more than this, or else you're really wasting money.

  • Hi.. i'm thinking to buy the Nokia 6101..i just Bought the Nokia 6680 2 days ago..and when i saw the Nokia 6101 i loved it..love from the first sight..and i'm going to buy it next week..soo what do u say guys should i ..or its just wasting money..?? and thank you..and for pple who has it...tell me whats teh bad things in it and thanks

  • After the lauch of SE 750i, the K700i is nearly the same price as the N6101, and much better I think. This Nokia phone seems only good in looks.

  • The Phone looks cool. It's a very good one from NOKIA, but MP3 qulaity is not that good.

  • No probs! Mark

  • to 'sam' on australian websites for this phone the cost ranges from $350 to $420, so yeah might not be $400 or so, just have to look around. but then buying it from shops will probs be bit more expensive...but yeah just look round where you live and thanks 'Mark' good review and information

  • this looks like a decent phone

  • Hi. Reception seems fine, although its all network dependant. I am on Tesco mobile and that runs from o2 and i dont get very good signal with o2 in my area. But T-Mobile, Virgin, Orange etc all run fine with great reception strenght. It all depends on the area and network your in.

  • The battery of 6101, lest over one week!!!

  • hey everyone!l hope this fone is good cuz im goin 2 buy it next week in australia and it cost $400 well ill say more when l get it

  • I love the look of this new Nokia, but am also disappointed at the lack of features. I just spoke with O2 on the phone and they say it will be released tomorrow (26th July) and will be free to Pay Monthly new customers and upgrades. I think it's only available in white.

  • how's the reception so far? can it be compared to any previous nokias? (6230, 3595, etc.) let us know.

  • Hi all. Just responding to the white/black situation everyone is having. Personally i think the white is better than the black. Mainly because the black glossy finish on the front of the handset will pick up lots of fingerprints and its annoying. Its something you dont want to see on your brand new mobile - i had the same problem with my black Siemens SF65, and after a few days of rubbing everyones and my own finerprints off the phones body, it resulted in lots of cosmetic scratches. Sadly. But the white gloss doesnt show the finger prints as harshly which is a good thing. Most of the time you dont even think any are there. Mark

  • Its love at first sight!!! Gosh, finally Nokia come up with this nice flip fone. Im going to get mine this week. Is white better than black??? thanks

  • Just bought mine today, the black version. The fingerprints are well seen on the glossy black part... Perhaps it is less seen on the white 6101? My first impression is quite good, keyboard is VERY comfortable to use, the inner display shows a very high quality. Only one big minus... The MP3-function (as ringtone or alarm-alert): the speaker-quality is very poor. The sound is too high and no bass is heared. Polytones are better on this phone. Too bad. I'll post another comment next week or so, when I have more experience with it.

  • Is the glossy black cover of the phone a fingerprint magnet? and now after a couple of days of use, how's battery life and reception?

  • Hi all. Well, for the person who asked if you could assign ringtones to individual people then im afraid that you cant. I just had a look and it doesn't appear to be an avaliable option. Hope this helps. As for the sturdiness of the Nokia 6101 for cfrock, i think it is a really solid construction. It feels like any other high class flip phone on the market. Really sturdy and solid. It has a great close action and feels solid when you flip the phone shut. It becomes loose when the phone is open - enough so you can close the phone with one hand but it doesnt hinder the phones already well built construction. Its actually quite handy in some cases! So there you have it. Good solid design that feels like it wont break within a week. I'm lovin this phone at the moment and i'm sure you all will too! Mark.

  • Hi all, am willing to buy this phone tomorow for my mom, and she really likes to adjust deffirant ringtones to outher ppl cuz it makes it more easy for her. I read on a previous post that the 6101 dosent support this, I just wanted to make sure if this feature is available or not, so please if any one has the phone to reply me back. Thanks so much

  • mark.. how is the hinge? does it appear to be of good quality? sturdy? side-to-side movement? does the phone feel hollow or plastic(y)? let us know.

  • Sorry to keep posting i bet your all sick of me now! Lol. Anyways, i have found out how to get the main menu in a grid view and its not the usual settings > display > main menu view > grid etc, whilst in the main menu you ave to press options > main menu view > grid. It sounds so simple but most times we miss the simple things. Well i do anyway! So i've had the phone for a bit longer and i'm really startin to love it. Its great and well worth the price i paid - �103 from tesco.co.uk

  • Ok, so i have it now. Had the handset for around an hour and a half. First impressions aren't good which is a shame really. As i said before there are ALWAYS good AND bad points. I shall list what i belive makes the phone a good handset and the things that are bugging me. Good Points + Its a Nokia! Easy to use, fast reaction speed, good ringtones etc. + The phones a great looking handset. Mines the white colour and it looks great. + External screen is of good quality, could be better but its good enough and a nice size. + Excellent quality keypad, really comfortable to use and a strong nice blue backlighting. + Camera of good quality. There is no zoom function until after you have captured your image. While most people who hear this say 'oh god thats rubbish!', well try looking at the quality when you've zoomed. If you have a mobile that zooms the picure always blurs or goes fuzzy, with the Nokia 6101, the iamge remains crystal clear - similar to the 6230. + The phone has radio, video record, PTT, infa-red, etc. All these things build up the phones strong features. People may moan about lack of bluetooth, well infa-red is a substitute in this case. At least there is some way of data transfer to other mobiles. Bad Points - MAIN MENU!!!!! The menu style on my handset is in a list? I believe you can have an icon style main menu, but i cant find it anywhere and i hate the list style. It looks dull and boring. Maybe it is network depending but it really shouldnt be. - Video quality isnt great but you cant really class this as a bad point because at least the phone has a video record function! - The phones pre-installed wallpapers aren't the best. I really dislike them and they dont suit the overall look of the phone. - The phones memory isnt great as you all know from everyones whinging. Yes it's a problem but get over it and look else where if you take loads of pictures. Thats all i can really think of. As i say ive only had it for around an hour and a half so my opinion could change. The bad points always seem to disappear from my mind when i look at the lovely design of the phone. But then i open it and access the main menu and im just let down again. Hopefully i will find out how to change the menu but its not looking hopeful. Overall i would give this phone a 6 out of 10. Maybe a little harsh but the bad points do plague the phone. I will write back hear once i have got to grips with the phone more. Hope this helps some people with their decision. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have regarding this handset. Also ignore what is written underneath i pressed submit before i finished! Lol. Ok well thanks for reading. Mark.

  • I recieved my Nokia 6101 this morning at 7:25AM! However i wasn't awake for it and neither was anyone else so i'm picking it up from the post office depot shortly. Once i have got to grips with it - which shouldnt take long with it being a nokia, i will post a review that will actually HELP people instead of you having to listen to the phones problems and not its strengths. Thats one thing that annoys me about this site. A phone has 2 sides to it - good AND bad, i never hear anyone listing the good things apart from it looks good. Well we gathered that but people want to know how the phone performs, its reaction speed, the design of the menu, the screen quality, etc etc etc. All this will be discussed in my review. Stay tuned guys. I'm from UK by the way too.

  • i am looking forward a new hp n have actually eyeing on this model via Net for quite sometime before it is presently available in Malaysia. Perhaps this is one of the flip phones i like the most as all the features i would want can be found here. :) The price is about RM750 in Malaysia (reasonable for such features). I have checked it out in a hp shop today but i was quite disappointed with the memory and MP3 thingey. Why is that only 4.4 MB? sigh~ And yes, unfortunately, the quality of the sound performance is lamentable. It is somewhat monstrous and vex you unpleasantly, murderous for one's ears. With such a perfect design, but such minuses... i think i will seriously reconsider whether or not to own one...Or anyone can give me some suggestions regarding to my problems?? any other model(s) to recommend please?? thanks...

  • well , i used 6101 and atlast satisfy that nokia brings a flap model which not only looks goods aslo works

  • And secondly Nokia has kept the memory of 6101 low because there is need to. If they would have raised the memory and other features then the price segment Nokia wanted to cater with this phone would have finished. Look at the price boss and look at the sexy thing. Its coool and worth the money we are paying for it.

  • I donnot agree to the below comments at all. Nokia is too big & effecient to get caught in such problems. No idendity crisis. Nokia is only catering to the needs of the masses. Design & fell becomes secondary before the public demand. And I for one have always wanted that Nokia should bring something closer to what samsung's usp was. Good Job Nokia... We will always love you for the time & devotion you give to this trade. Salaam Nokia.

  • I agree. Nokia IS having an identity crisis. What happened to all their classic phones like the 5110, 3315 and 3200? These ones you could look at and say "now that's a nokia". Now u look at all these new nokias and say "that looks like they are trying to copy some other wierd brand or trying to just be try hards". Its not cool nokia. Find your 'thing'and stick to it!

  • is nokia having an identity crisis?

  • not enough memory! i cant put a mp3 song on it if it's just 4.4 mb!!

  • the design is good and attract me.but it will be a more sedutive choice if it has bluetooth,higher monitor pixel and better camera~

  • This is the phone I will be getting to replace my ageing 6610i which has served me well for over a year although the camera has become quite blurred since I bought it orignally. Some say it looks like other models made by other manufacturers, so what they all copy each other from time to time. It doesn't have a Megapixels camera, so what I already have a perfectly fine 3.2 megapixel olympus camera. So it doesn't have multi memory, does this matter as long as it has some sort of stroage space there is no problem. People say it ain't like this model or like that model, who cares at the end of they have made phones that do those extra features but not on this phone, why because not everyone wants a load of features they will never use. I can see this phone doing very well in London & the rest of the UK, another Nokia classic

  • not enough memory? can i add external MC or hear MP3 from USB ?

  • got my 6101 today. i hope this will work better than my lemon 6230i.

  • Yes it is a good phone with somethings like bluetooth missing but good value for the price. Amother minus is that for all callers you have the same ring tones. Very limited amount of ring tones in the phone on the whole for a price of around �uro 230 it is good.

  • Hi , can some one bought nokia 6101 can tell me about that mobile ,is it good

  • Nice phone got it today.It does work, the camera, radio etc. Seems good will post more when I know more.

  • now available in the philippines for php14k.

  • I like this phone sooooooooo much! Does anybody know when it will be available in Estonia?

  • I need a cover for this phone. In the official nokia service center I was told that they are not allowed to sell them, but they could change it for me (which costs a lot of money). Anyone have an idea where I could get one?

  • Wow...its a nice shape of nokia, i love it, i consider to buy this one and i think, the price is not to expensive...i guess...its around Rp.2.750.000,-.(launching price)

  • hey i'm planning to get this phone in australia. doesnt seem they have this phone in the white.any help in getting one in white??

  • with the "push-to-talk" feature is it virtually like a walkie talkie? or is it just a button you press to start up a call? please explain

  • i've been searching for new model of nokia phone and i spotted this phone, well it looks nice, does anyone know when its going to release in the philippine market and how much?please email me, because i'm so excited to have this phone, THANKS!

  • with the external screen, if someone calls does their picture come up on the external screen

  • thanks 'ruthie', yeah i'd like the white, looks much nicer

  • Today I "also" bought this phone.. And the colour was white!!! Very nice.. The white one looks better in real than in a pics.. It is quite silver, I think.. This phone is absolutely the best that I have ever met.. The keypad is brilliant..!!! I hope you all buy it too!! You won't be disappoint..

  • i was dead set on gettin this phone cos its a nokia flip, but i think somehow nokia hav failed in this market. They cant go from releasing a 6230 with all the features u could possibly want to this phone that doesnt even hav bluetooth!

  • hey, replying to your msg toni. The phone is available in white in this country, uv just got to look hard! try looking on some internet sites, they sell both.

  • I just bought 2 hours ago a black 6101 and it at least looks perfect!! :)

  • Hi! For everyone, I wanna to know how is his batery, how much during : 2-3 days, or more??... This phone just has arrive in my country (Romania) and all are interest about him. So, who can help me? How is his photo, agenda etc?... I waiting for a replay, pleazzzz! Ciao!

  • Hi! I'm about to buy this phone - but I'm not sure about the colour... I'm wondering if it is a "shinning-white" or more of a "silver-white". Anyone???! Thanks

  • I like the design if i wasnt a person after SPEC + DESIGN. Maybe this would be suitable for a person to have a good looking phone and not care about extra features. The silver 1 looks nicer IMO lol. But Samsung still have been spec WITH some nice designs.

  • Nokia 6101 must be a great mobile phone, how come it's not available in the Southeast yet. I drop by vodafone almost every week just to check it's availability but up to this date, NONE YET.

  • in portugal we dont see these model. old time we are the last�s to have the news about new phones!!!

  • to "me" what does it matter if im a boy or girl? why do you want to know?

  • Could anyone tell me is the nokia 6101 available in white in the u.k? if so is it your choice what colour you have? please someone write back A.S.A.P.

  • What have Nokia done ??? Samsung have no need to. worry if this is the best Nokia can produce...........

  • To the australian market: Nokia 6101 Due week 3, July Nokia 1600 Announced last week, Due September Nokia 6260 Limited Edition Black Version, due 29th June Nokia 6030 Announced recently, Due last week July or week 1 August Nokia 6111 Announced last week, due October Nokia 5140i Due 2nd or 3rd week July Nokia 8800 Due week 3 or 4 July Nokia N70/N90 Due late August Nokia N91 Due December Nokia 6230 Ends Early August Nokia 7280 Ends October/November Nokia 7270 Gets a refresh next month (all black as apposed to current black/Silver) Nokia 2650 Will get a refresh at some point in �05

  • i think it look like motorolla flip phone & i think nokia should come up with different designs.

  • yes, it is coming to Australia, but I have heard that it's coming only on black colour... (Toni) Are you girl or a boy ?

  • I think that i am getting this beautiful phone! 'cause i just like it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i like this phone but i think it looks too much like the Motorola v635, the phone features are good but i still think that the best flip phones are made by Motorola and NOT by nokia,

  • Where did you buy that phone? I live in Finland and it has not yet come in to the stores...! I think you are just jelous because you don't have the money to buy nokia 6101 !!! (YOU HAVE NOT EVEN SEEN IT YET.) I AM GOING TO BUY THAT PHONE BECAUSE I WANT IT, SO BADLY...

  • Thanks. I'm actually heading overseas soon, and did want the phone before I left, but I have my heart set on the silver and it's available where I'm going. I may just get it there (although I will check ebay - it isn't on ebay yet though!)

  • jenny - yes only the black colour will be available - nokia have just launched this phone in the country, it will arrive maybe end of next week to the suppliers, so the resellers should get it maybe the week after.... still awaiting network approval, but once one of the networks approve it, it will be available to purchase, and sorry, but yes only black will be released to the australian market :) silver may be available (ebay?) however this would not come with the australian a-tick nor the australian warranty, so be careful :)

  • I live in finland and I am going to buy this phone as soon as possible ! It isn't yet in stores but I hope it will be there by the end of this week ! I probably order it on the web: www.verkkokauppa.com I am going to buy the silver one...I think it's great

  • In finland you can choose also silver colour and you can buy it in webstore if black colur is only option. its comig to stores about two weeks and price is litle bit over 200 �. this is one example of finnish webstores. wwww.verkkokauppa.com

  • In Finland 6101 will be available in Nokia retailstores (such as Telering etc) from beginning of week 25... and that�s a fact! It�s a beauty...

  • Hey everyone, just to let you anxious people know some news about this phone. Ive emailed o2 and they've informed me that you will be able to purchase it from the 27th june and all details will be on their website from then. Hope this helps! I think its one of the best looking nokia phones around although it does lack some necessary features, it. BLUETOOTH & memory! but other than that i think its fab!

  • this phone lacks memory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! only 4.5 MB total memory for all resources like mp3 , video n camera etc!!! BWARE [email protected]

  • One of the niceset flip-off phone done by Nokia..I like it so much...can sum1 told me wat the price for this phone in M'sia?

  • no memory card, that sucks lots of features and not enough memory to use the!

  • This phone is looking nice. compact phone and features but no blue tooth its so sad and now days IR port and blue tooth is must think over it. bit i like the phone size and features and memory what you need for mobile phone.

  • wheres this "dedicated camera button" then?

  • it is a great phone.does anybody know real price of this phone.plase answer me!!!!Serbia

  • It's all I want from a phone! Elegant and GOOD! But I also want to know what's the price? and when I can buy it from Romania or Italy.

  • i love this phone, but i would like to know wat the retail price of it is in the middle east(qatar and lebanon) and when it wil be in the market at those countries. thanks!!!

  • A great looking fone and it's about time Nokia adapted the Samsung look. But alas no GPRS and no Bluetooth, surely modern fones need both to even be considered? Having said that I may plump for a 2nd hand one later in the year if I can get a decent price on eBay for my V3. Next time Nokia, please, get it 100% right, not 98% right? :-(

  • the nokia 6101 looks good, anyone know when its out in aus, so what if it looks like a samsung, all flip phones are starting to look the same these days, samsungs might look good but they dont last as good as a nokia.

  • Hi im from south africa and i got one it is alright. I got it real cheap so if you are still wanting one i can organise. My dad works for Nokia here so he gets them cheap. I prefer the Nokia 6230i or 6630. email [email protected]

  • I Like NOKIA 6101 & I will buy it . It is one of the best NOKIA cell phone that i know .

  • The Nokia 6101 is it available here in Detroit, Michigan. And what is the price range.

  • I think I'm gonna buy this. In Finland it should be out in June. Nokia hasn't decided the price yet... The price without taxes should be under 250 e, but...

  • Does anyone know when the nokia 6101 will be available to buy in the UK?

  • Does anyone know when the 6101 will be available in South Africa? Even though it looks like a Samsung, remember people, it ISN'T a Samsung! And even if there was Bluetooth, there's not enough memory to store much on this phone anyway. I can't wait - it's small, it's lightweight, and it's a flip phone, and it's a NOKIA

  • will this phone have bluetooth with it when it comes out and does anybody know when it is released. thanks

  • Anyone know this phone come with a mmc slot? If not how should we transfer the data to our pc?

  • i want this phone. its got the nokia functions which i love, and the samsung look which i love too. i like it alot. i hope it can come out soon and i can buy it.

  • i want this foneeee

  • it's very nice.I expect it very soon to buy one.

  • Camera doesn't sound too good. Neither does the Display quality or Screen size... The features you notice most! Do Nokia ever get anythin right?! Nokia phones have not been the most sophisticated or up to date in recent years, how difficult can it be Nokia? Do you only work part time? hehe.

  • i just like it & i want to bye it

  • This is the coolest noKia's ever release, I just want to change my handphone as soon as posible...I hope its store faster, this 6101 is so cute just like japanese handphone, clamsheld is the best!! Love is with camera and Mp3 makes it perfect, i hope the memory is big enough.

  • I like e design very much.... hopefully faster to release so that i can purchase it.. nokia is a friendly user of compare all other brand hp..

  • Why does it have an antenna?!? looks ugly i think. if you want a nice nokia fold phone get a 6170 or a 7270 bud its a shame dat none of them got bleutooth. Get real nokia!!

  • The new innovation of Nokia 6101 is amazing, I had always thought of having a nokia that folds, now I can have once it comes to the market, I am looking forward to it. I wonder if it is a tri band?

  • i think we all secretly wished for nokia tht looks like a samsung. so hey dreams do come true. i wish my dream had bluetooth and sd card slot inclusions. but u can only dream in so much details :P

  • I love it. The keypad is great. I love folded phones. It looks like folded Samsung phones. I like black one. I look forward to own one. Camera included ... what do you want more? I'm curious abot the battery ... I hope to find out real soon.

  • unfortunly i dont think that this phone is going to have enuff memory, damn, it was looking gr8 to, no mmc :( warning: If somebody claiming to be QuAKe emails you delted it! he has been using my name to try and get people to buy him mobiles and send them to Nigera, He is not QuAKe he has just been using my name! Please do not email him back!

  • I Think its the best phone and its got a good shape and everything But how much is it

  • great phone! but lack of bluetooth and MMC is disappointing. however, having said that, nokia is the master of making mobile phones and more often than not they know what exactly their doing...so lets wait and see

  • should have MMC card slot

  • Its Cool and lovely. Pls make d 6101i and improve on d colour frm 65k to 265k or more and external colur to aronnd 65k. Don't forget 2 add bluetooth,MMC,external memory etc. Add as many as u can. Lets see d nokia tradition. Its no phone but NOKIA..........

  • its big i think but average for a flip fone not enough connectivity which i dont c y they cant add it will it make it that much bigger, but irda is faster than bt

  • great phone by nokia! at last they made a clamshell fliptop phone. but i'm disappointed because it doesn't have a MMC and a bluetooth. samsung and motorola is copying nokia's features or services for so long. give nokia a chance to copy their design. and i'm not really surprised that it doesn't have a MMC and b.tooth. because if they put it all in that phone. they may not have a chance of getting high sales from other phones. remember this. cellular makers will not make an excellent phone. hey! its business. ^_^

  • I like the design even though i'll rather remove the antenna. I'm very disappointed with the lack of bluetooth. Make another version please nokia.

  • Very nice, but the memory is a bit small 3.5 Mb

  • i admit this phone is rather a lot like some samsung models but i'm glad nokia is streamlining the shape of it's phones. some of the earlier clamshell nokias were a bit too bulky for my taste. please roll out more slim n curvy flip phones but maintain the nokia traditionalstrenght n features. my personal opinion? nokia is to phones what benz is to cars.

  • Nokia phones are really good brand of phones I want to Purchase one but I live in the caribbean and donot have any form of credit card Only by money Order.

  • Why!? Nokia has been great but why!? why are you copying samsungs phone!!? it's good to make clamshell phones but the design of samsung!!! Samsung is really overtaking Nokia already ang Nokia is afraid of lossing the grip and now they are copying samsung designs! Why!?

  • i really like NOKIA phones, but sadly thier flip-up phones do not have great design. stick to ordinary phones NOKIA! Please!!!

  • i will wait this

  • Oh! A clamshell phone which is small and only weighs under 100 gram! I like the style, but no BLUETOOTH is making me crying and be nervous like a pig.. I will choose Nokia 6260 instead the Nokia 6101 because it's much prettier!

  • my opinion is that NOKIA 6101 is one of the nicest mobile phone i've ever seen :it is small , it has all those features IT IS JUST PERFECT

  • This phone will be almost perfect if it had BLUETOOTH!. One of the most talk about aspects of this phone is the design. Handsdown this phone is by far the best clamshell Nokia had built in a while. I would personally pick this over the Nokia 6260 if it had the Bluetooth. In terms of merge between Samsung and Nokia, I would think Nokia will buy out Samsung, because Nokia by far had emerge and successful in terms of sales, durability, ingenuity, and reputation.

  • Well, how about nokia's software, motorola's built (plus LCD screen), samsung's sound, Sony_ericsson's camera? That will be one heck of a phone. then again, I'll still dream on about it happening.

  • just one thing missing. bluetooth. =( (and the price will be certantly too high)

  • Nokia is copying Samsung's nice design and Samsung is copying Nokia's nice features. We will probably end with the same phones from both companies. And maybe Samsung will buy Nokia ?

  • Heres a great idea, all phones work together in the end for the customers money! They should have Samsung design MERGED together with a nokia spec. HOW GREAT WILL PHONES BE THEN? Both companies will have lots of money. (just like the xbox and ps2 work together secretly for the consumers needs)

  • Ron... I agree with u... they are going no where... and the new series of samsung phones are best amongh all i can see currently... BUT samsung needs to double work hard on their phone seriously... although i like they small, smooth, light handphones... but they simply need to catch up on their features to the global needs.. gosh~! Nokia needs to think twice whether they want to do clampshell or candy bar... they seems or not sure what designe they are doing...

  • Hey, check out the snap shots of nokia 6101 @ www.mobileburn.com It's really coool & top-class design than samsung's clamshell fones... Hey RON, I like ur name...Why? 'cuz it's my crush's name too! lol ^_^

  • This phone proves that nokia always have better features but lacking in design while samsung have great design but lacking in features! Finally, new Samsung phones no longer have an antenna while nokia is putting them back on. Nokia is obviuosly going the wrong direction with this phone!

  • looks like nokia is doing a samsung style phones better. this is sleek and stylish with a nice colour combination.

  • Nice phone, but not a great spec. People asking why Nokia is copying Motorola and Samsung... maybe because they make the best clampshell phones and they are competing with each other. At the moment i am a Samsung lover because their phones rule!

  • No Nokia You still cannot make good clam shells - Moto man

  • It's better than 6170, 7270... and the other bricks. I like it. It's simple and elegant

  • Why did Nokia build a Samsung? Think...!

  • I would like to say something positive about this phone .... hmmm thats net that easy ... ... Well it's less than an inch thick .... .... It would have been marvelous a couple of years ago ... ... Early retro? ...

  • Why oh why nokia? a flip design, simply spoiled by an antenna

  • i like it very well that is why i want to buy it.

  • Yo Thano....cant u read the notes from our sweet lady..Ms Tina here..? What's your comment..? Bravo Tiena.. ;-)

  • My first phone was a motorola and my last phone a motorola. I have found the functions on both phones to be unsatisfactory. I have had several nokia's and have found them to be easy to use and understand, with no muck ups in the functions. Any Nokia myself or friends have had,we would recommend. There is a Nokia to suit everybody.

  • Dey Thano..... Go back to Motorola site. Why in the first place you in this site hah..? This is only for Nokians ..... :-)

  • I find these simple look + familiar are just great and would be really easy to use! Re-arrangeing the number buttons, complicated dial lay-out could be nice and make a different but I believe that "easy to use" layout and "familiar" are the main key-points to success! (Imagine if they decide to install the air-plane sterring wheel in your car!)

  • i hate the look of samsung phone, i find them all ugly. and i cant believe nokia has already have some gd looking and unique phone, why do they need ot copy?

  • SAMSUNG!!!!? this is a blatant Motorola v600 ripoff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nokia has sunk to a new low. More power to Motorola and their new revolutionary regime!

  • sleek design. neat lines. Zen-like appeal. The desgin is so nice that it could actually pass for a Samsung phone, the antenna emphasizes the Samsung-ish likeness even more...

  • Yes of course its samsungs design, i like the samsung but i'm a devout nokian. nokia simply saw ways of improving what the guys at samsung have come up with and the result is brilliant, like all of their products. i'm not a small phones person but the 6101 is beautiful and will give girls; mostly who are comparing the nokia and the samsung a no brainer obvious choice. ***connecting people***

  • Shame on Nokia . That's a Samsung design . Whats happening with Nokia , thet get out of ideas ??? It's seems that they look to Motorola and Samsung !!! It's the same with a Motorola V600 !!! A V-Phone it's a work from Samsung and Motorola , but not from Nokia . That's not a Nokia , its a BIG FAKE !!!

  • What a dumb Design! I have a Samsung A-800, and although it really seems old and crushed, but I love it more than this Fool Nokia. Shame to nokia with it's new designs!

  • the phone is fantastic and wonderful to have it but no bluetooth but i hope they will have new nokia 6101i so they can include bluetooth to make me happy and buy the nokia phone coz i am a die hard nokia fun who always loves to have nokia cellphone not other product cellphone. i give the phone 4.5 stars

  • The world is changing... First, everybody copied from Nokia. Now, Nokia copies from everybody! Smart phone, for sure!

  • No Bluetooth, no MP camera, AND no removable memory. Boo. Just boo. What are we doing, Nokia?

  • Great phone but no bluetooth and expansion memory. Hopefully, Nokia would come out one with that this year. I think they were planning to release 40 new designs this year. Lets cross our fingers. :)

  • leo! the keyboard is a samsung copy too

  • What no bluetooth??????????

  • looks pretty much like motorola v600 series to me. hmm..even their buttons colour looks identical, although the only thing that looks different is the antenna.

  • Y design look like SAMSUNG E600C?y everytime nokia mobile phone got flip one always no bluetooth?6170,7270 oso like tat!!!

  • y no introduce the phone in asia market?

  • Where's the Bluetooth? Like it though!

  • well well seems like the copy-look is being a quite issue in here:) Even thou, they two are sharing the samilar design I think at least Nokia still remain some look of Asian-pnone-like free, like, color or feel when I firstly see it I still feel the look of Nokia (perhaps the tone of colors)

  • I think Nokia needs to shape up!!! it looks like a Samsung to me, and I wouldn't give it a point fot its desing. It's obvious that was copied!�

  • nokia has copyed some design from samsung. but it lookes great, this phone can't cost much

  • Love Nokia but-no bluetooth, no sale.

  • I liked the purpose, but didn't like the design. For me it looks like a copy of Samsung with a different keyboard. Why didn't the do it with internal antenna? Maybe it's a great renewal of 6100 with a camera and some new function, in a clamshell design.

  • I would buy it for my mother. But it will cost twice as Sagem my C5-2 :/

  • looks like samsung E700 with antenna

  • great phone but lacks MMC card and bluetooth,this is the first NOKIA clamshell that really look nice

  • I would buy it too, but it doesnt even have bluetooth or an expandable memory slot. Its a good design as well

  • two thumbs up for the external design. Excellent! should this unit has a bluetooth i would probably rush to the store to have a unit of my own.

  • VGA Camera!!!! Comon Nokia!!! Wake Up!!!!

  • I would buy this phone if it had bluetooth.
