The Nokia 6101 Phone: Is it Worth Your Bucks?

Gina
Everyone you see has a different type of cell phone. Some phone are ultra thin or some are very blucky in size. Which phone will do the functions you need to carry on your life whether professional or personal. Even at best which fits your personality and budget. The phone I will tell you about is the Nokia 6101.

Size and durability of the Nokia 6101
The size of phone for me was a bit blucky. It wasnt easy to put in your coat pocket and just go as you pleased. You really needed a phone case to keep some where on you so that it wouldnt get in the way. I found it to be bothersome and prefer a small size phone. This phone is really tough. I had dropped it some many times and it still looks brand new. There was no nicks or dents on the covering. It definitely gets a A plus for its tough outter shell.

Camera Function
The camera was very good. The zoom part of the camera was really easy to adjust to your approval. You can adjust the darkness of the picture. You can change the mode on the camera to day or night time to make sure the picture is clear. The only thing that some might have a problem with is that you can't silence the snap sound when you take a picture. It is annoying at first but after a while you get use to the sound. You can even fold the front of the phone down , so you can take a picture of yourself. without having to ask someone to do it for you.

Talk Time and Battery Life
Nokia 6101 is superb at talk time. I had talked on the phone for like 6 hours before my phone completely hanged up on the person I was talking to. The the battery went like 2 minutes after. This so much better because the phone before this one was Samsung e335 and that phone only let talk for like 4 the most before it cuts you off. If you love to talk then the Nokia is right for you. The battery of the phone is really good.

Even after it complete goes dead, it charges up in like 10 minutes or so. Which was very good in my opinion. Some phone once its dead you have to wait the whole day or some hours for it to run again. One thing that I found interesting was that it charged faster when it was on rather than off. That was new to me.

Headset
The headset of the phone was quite annoying. I really didnt like the headset jack. I felt that is should have been made differently. Especially since it was so easy for the headset to just pop out of it. You will find yourself always having to put it back in place, constantly. Since you can not use a bluetooth you are stuck with using this headset jack without any further options other than changing the headset from a headphone type to an earbud.

Ringtone Setting
When applying the ringtone you had to make a group first. After you did that then you had to add the number or numbers to that group for the ringtone to apply to them. I thought the makers of the phone could have made that alot more easier to do. Many phones , you just press the name in the phone book and just apply the ringtone through the option menu. It was not a major issue to deal with but if you like easy way to do things then it would be an issue.

Customizing your phone
Customizing was the best feature on the phone. You can change the font color of the phone. Even in the mini screen on the front of the Nokia. You can even change the color of charging bars which , was a new thing for me. This phone really is one of kind when it comes to that. It was like having a mini computer in your hands with all that can be done to fit to your liking. The appearance inside and out on the mini screen, you could make it be known that this phone belongs to you.

The Nokia 6101 is well worth your buck. It has its negatives but the positives out weigh it by a long shot. You will not go wrong with this phone. You can talk for hours. It's functions are truly 21st Century. This phone will not break just from one drop or fumble. Nokia 6101 will do its job to the fullest of its capabilities.
