October – Thought 4 the Day N97 – First Impressions
Nov 04

Nokia_1100In the current age of mobile phones, this Nokia 1100 phone will be termed as a ‘relic’ or one for the museum. When I bought this phone for my Dad exactly four years back I never thought would be this Durable. After 4 years, its still going strong no sofware bugs, still makes and receives phone call without a hitch, acts as a flash light (in India this is a very handy feature) and the battery is still pretty good lasting for a day with my Dad’s usage.

The first thing attracted to me is the Single navi key which makes / receives call making it very easy to use. The screen remains visible in sunlight since its just a monochrome one with white backlight. Its very robust (here in India, people prefer Nokia because they want their phone to survive the minor disasters they put them through).

But in current scenario where user friendly interface goes, its not very friendly but its pretty straightforward has a decent enough contact book, profiles to match your environment like silent / loud, customizable ring tones, alarms, calculator etc.

So as you see it covers the basics of a mobile phone, and for still going strong I’ve to give my Kudos to it

So what do you think of Nokia 1100, post your comments here :-)

    Yeah, I strongly agree. I had a 1100 which I still use as a back-up when my highly-featured phones go down and need repair. My 1100 never had a break-down, only when I soked it in rain the backlights went off, but still the phone works as a phone to make calls. It is really a master-piece, I can sell it for $1100 if you really plan a museum with it :)

    Yes. You are right. I have the same one for the past 5 years. Even it may be good asset to consumers like us, it is a great loss to sellers and people repairing cellphones. Because in 5 years it sold roughly around five lakh pieces. It this long period among of them even 2% of the phone would die. That is why the ‘connecting people’ disconnect the services of 1100.
