What owners report

  • “Hey Alex, no being funny but many many people still use button phones so still txt like that on a regular basis! [...] the way you txt is slow, i have this phone and txt double the speed. [...] And some of the photos i have taken on this phone, have not been all really grainy. [...]”

  • “I find the pictures taken by the camera to be quite "okay". From an old-school point of view (meaning that I do not intend on zooming in NCIS-style, and it can be printed and it looks well enough). On a screen it's a bit grainy but not too much. [...] My previous phone was a Nokia N86 and it was becoming quite laggy (more than this phone), buggy (more than this phone) and taking pictures with the 8 MP was getting difficult because I had to remain very still otherwise the photo would be rubbish. [...]”

  • “[...] I recently bought a Nokia 8000 4g and am reasonably happy with it. [...] I had a Nokia C5-00 before this phone and I really miss the smaller size and far superior build quality of that phone compared to the 8000 4g. However, I bought the 8000 for the 4g and the hotspot and that works great and means I can avoid getting sucked into buying and spend too much time on a "smartphone". [...]”

  • “[...] The drawback is that is not so well optimized, and it is laggy. Hope that it will be an update to make the phone faster”
