So I went to walmart to see what new phones they had there. Well this phone was on sale. As prepaid. I just switched my sim card out and was on my new phone. I did previously have a Nokia 1600 and 1110i (they kind of are matching from previous card phone service) and I just loved those phones. This phone is easy to use and is great for the senior citizen. The only reason I am giving this device a 4.5 is because of the phone having no camera.<br /><br />On the bright side it has the sims and I love the sims, it has just always (i dont know been a fun game, and so I got the whole series that was able for this phone. <br /><br />Ringtones:<br />The ringtones are great in sound and just are great in general. If you do like texting then this phone *might* not get the job done. I would find you suitable for the Samsung Jack, Propel, something with the keyboard.<br /><br />I am a big texter and you still can text well however I feel i was 99 times faster on the sync. Also I feel more confident that when i drop this phone its not going to break in like 300 peices, compaired to what my 200 dollar razor thin phone did to me. <br /><br />Call quality:<br />I have not had a dropped call ever on this phone, whereas, samsung you got me 2 to 3 a day.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=35097#review35097 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=35097#review35097 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:28:41 GMT <p><i>Cellular Phone submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Pros: great reception, long battery life, compact and portable, and it has loud volume and ringers. Easy to text, easy to use, phone functions better if you delete all the preinstalled games, themes, tones, and graphics. Nice keypad,<br /><br />Cons: small screen, sometimes hard to see, but I keep my wallpaper turned off so I can see the display well even outside. This phone is so tiny compared to my Nokia 6010. I wish it were the same length and size, etc, but hey, it's a good upgrade.<br /><br />The battery life is great, at 1020mAH I am not complaining.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=33130#review33130 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=33130#review33130 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 21:51:06 GMT <p><i>ATnT Nokia submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I had this phone from 2007 to early 2008 when I upgraded to a smart phone. I had so much trouble with the smart phone that I finally decided to get a new phone I decided to go out and buy a Nokia 2610 prepaid kit and use it on my plan.<br /><br />Why? Simple. The Nokia 2610 has stellar battery life, clear reception, strong signal, strong durability,and it is easy to use. I also bought a leather case for the phone so it is hard to destroy. I never had any issues with the phone, except a lack of features, but you know what? More expensive models often exchange durability and functionality for bells and whistles. you get all that jazz, but you also get a buggy phone that has signal issues, short battery life, and poor call quality. With the Nokia 2610, I don't have these problems.<br /><br />With the Nokia 2610, you may not get the bells and whistles, but if you want a phone that works well and will last you forever with no issues, I suggest you run out and get a Nokia 2610.<br /><br />AT&amp;T also has the 2600 classic which is nowhere near as good as the 2610. If you have AT&amp;T or T-Mobile and want a good basic GSM phone, get the Nokia 2610 and get a leather case for it and you will have a reliable phone to last you through a whole contract and then some!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=32926#review32926 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=32926#review32926 Wed, 04 Feb 2009 06:56:41 GMT <p><i>knuckleballer34 submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This one's short and sweet. The 2610 is a basic phone that has excellent reception, call quality, and durability. If you just make calls and want something reliable, this is a good investment. For those of you looking to improve your reception, this phone will do the trick for you. No frills or gadgets, but it gets the job done with the best of them.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=32917#review32917 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=32917#review32917 Tue, 03 Feb 2009 06:14:02 GMT <p><i>BaiLes submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Where: Houston and surrounding areas.<br />Who: T-Mobile.<br /><br />I'm the type of person that needs a phone FIRST. This is the perfect phone in that sense.<br /><br />After wearing down the Nokia 3220 to the point of being embarrassed to use it in public (however, the phone itself works just fine), I decided to switch to the 2610.<br /><br />Cons:<br />Can't change the color of the antenna and battery bars. Kind of annoying!<br /><br />The center of the menu key makes a clicky noise when I press it. Kind of wish that wasn't the case, especially if I'm trying to be discrete in a quiet room.<br /><br />2MB of memory. Not the best for storing a whole bunch of pictures you receive from relatives.<br /><br />Neutral: A camera would've been nice, even if it was just a VGA. I'm not one to take a bunch of pictures with my phone, but would like the option.<br /><br />Pros:<br />Sound quality -- awesome. People hear me and I hear them. I expect nothing less from Nokia.<br />Compact<br />Ok screen<br />Customizable selection keys, as well as D-Pad keys.<br />Great battery life!<br />Customizable text size for text messaging.<br />Can make the screen saver a digital clock.<br /><br />Great phone :)</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=30256#review30256 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=30256#review30256 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 02:58:04 GMT <p><i>ektor submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>A basic phone for making calls. If you don't waste your money on mobile internet or multimedia crap it is perfect! Great battery life, sounds good and is a compact phone easy to carry around. Just adjust the contrast to low for a better screen display and turn off the sleep mode.

Though it has a few items that bug me a bit, I would rate it very high for a low cost phone.<br /><br />It feels good in the hand, love the blue lighted keypad. Solid feel, good size. The toggle is a bit wobbly and I make mistakes sometimes and get the wrong response. That is one of my bugaboos about it.<br /><br />I like the styling, the look, the screen is a good size. Only improvement there would be a QWERTY foldout or slideout version keypad besides the usual. But, for my first mobile browser enabled phone, I don't think I would have chosen differently. I'm glad it's my "first AT&amp;T." <br /><br />My absolutely first cellphone experience is a Tracfone Nokia 2126, no browser. So the 2610 was for me at least, a deluxe experience. A person more used to devices with lots of extra features might not be satisfied, but it does what it ought for the design.<br /><br />I now want a QWERTY device and might like something that plays music, has a camera. Had to start somewhere with AT&amp;T and glad I started here.<br /><br />PRO: <br />FAST texting, can adjust the text size, nice screen, nice layout, clean look and feel, can do email,eBay; good loud speakerphone; like the alarm, calendar, timer, notes; nice selection of downloadable graphics, ringtones, love the croaking frog alert/wallpaper/screensavers. Like the MEdia Net, good 3G speed page loader, FAST scrolling, good browser keypad command responses. Has a quality feel to it, great basic phone. <br /><br />CON: <br />Sometimes crashes, particularly under heavy texting, but the negs might just be my phone. The backlighting goes out way too fast, couldn't fix that with settings. Sometimes get error messages with texts saying it failed delivery, THAT's a bugaboo. Had to delete preloaded games to put just a few graphics/tones onboard. Hard to see screen outside even in partial shade.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=30089#review30089 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=30089#review30089 Wed, 23 Jul 2008 01:53:05 GMT <p><i>eric_cartman submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This phone is perfect for those who JUST want a phone. It doesnt have the fancy bluetooth stereo (or bluetooth for that matter), microSD, camera or video or nothing. It's a basic phone that lets you talk, text message and web browsing (at GPRS Speed, which limits it to basic wap sites). Also, since its not fancy and stuff, the battery lasts longer (upto 10 days standby), and it also has profiles and stuff. The only problem is that the buttons feel clumsy, especially the navigation pad.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=29392#review29392 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=29392#review29392 Tue, 17 Jun 2008 21:31:35 GMT <p><i>The New ATnT Wireless submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>The Nokia 2610 is a basic phone that comes with a lot of features and is available with major GSM carriers such as AT&amp;T Wireless and T-Mobile.<br /><br />Basics:<br /><br />The Nokia 2610 ranks 5/5 for durability, signal strength, call quality, length of battery life, and a simple user friendly menu. The keypad is very decent, the only trouble is the arrow keys, sometimes I hit a wrong button.<br /><br />Features:<br /><br />Features include MMS, MP3 ringer capabilities, voice recorder, high resolution screen (for a basic), games, graphics, themes, ringers, and Internet capabilities.<br /><br />The phone provides solid service for customers looking for a device without spending too much. Granted, this phone does not have bluetooth, but you can acquire an earpiece set for the phone.<br /><br />For users who desire a simple wireless device, the Nokia 2610 is a smart choice.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=29277#review29277 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=29277#review29277 Sun, 08 Jun 2008 00:47:54 GMT <p><i>MotoV3RAZR2008 submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>The 2610 model is a good phone for people who just need a basic solid performer.<br /><br />The phone comes with good battery life, decent signal strength, reception is good, and it comes packed with many features for a basic candy bar style phone.<br /><br />Some of your pros include easy to use menu, keypad is also simple and easy, and the phone has fairly loud ringing volume.<br /><br />Some of the cons are that the menu is a little bit slow, and you can't change the color of the signal/battery level bars in stand by mode.<br /><br />The phone does have a beautiful screen, and it is capable of MP3 ringers. Also, the memory for this basic phone is generous, and you can download some fun games, like Tetris and Bowling!<br /><br />Texting with this phone is fairly simple too. <br /><br />In conclusion, if you are looking for a good, basic phone for a low price, you have found the right hand set. The Nokia 2610 will provide you with a reliable wireless device for years to come.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=28521#review28521 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=28521#review28521 Thu, 10 Apr 2008 17:20:39 GMT <p><i>ejb11235 submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>The primary purpose of a $30 cell phone is to allow you to make cell phone calls. This phone does exactly that and does it well.<br /><br />The Nokia 2610 is available from TMobile as a pre-paid "To-Go" phone for $30. The rep at the TMobile store told me activate the phone with the included SIM card and use up the free 10 minutes before I put in my own SIM. Apparently there can be some warranty problems or improper activation issues if you don't.<br /><br />This phone has no bluetooth, no camera, doesn't come with a USB cable, and isn't (from what I've read) supported by Nokia's sync software. Sure, I'd love to have some of these features, but then it wouldn't be a $30 phone.<br /><br />PROS--This phone provides way better signal coverage than my old phone (T610), both in my home and on a highway I drive a lot. Actually, I'm stunned on how much more coverage I'm getting. Call quality is excellent.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=27998#review27998 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=27998#review27998 Fri, 29 Feb 2008 18:41:01 GMT <p><i>phonesrus submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>i recently purchased this little jewel when my 13 month old k1 died.have been a loyale moto fan for years ,but now after using this phone makes me want to check into nokia's higher end phones.<br /><br /><br />pros:<br />-great battery<br />-great rf(AT&amp;T)<br />-sound quality is very good<br />-profiles of ringing options<br />-ringtones are nice and loud<br />-media net has acceptable speed for a basic device<br /><br />cons:<br />-sometimes interface can be a little sluggish and slow to respond to keys being pressed ,which if not careful ,can result in a ringtone being blasted in your ear<br />-easy to hit wrong direction on d-pad<br /><br />in all the phone does what it should do,make and recieve calls.i will keep it for back up even if i do get another advanced phone.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=931 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=27571#review27571 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=931&r=27571#review27571 Fri, 01 Feb 2008 20:52:53 GMT <p><i>MszLiyah04 submitted this review of the Nokia 2610:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This phone is GREAT!
