Nokia 1100 Review
Phone rating: 
Review: March 2004. Updated October 2005.
The Nokia 1100 is an entry-level phone, designed with simplicity and
reliability in mind. One nice feature of the 1100 is its silicon keypad
- easy-to-use and non-slip. The sides of the phone are also made of
a non-slip material, so overall the phone is nice to hold and physically
easy to use.
The 1100 does come with a few gimmicky features, such as a torch, but
Nokia has mostly stuck to basic features, so reliability and user-friendliness
should follow. If you're looking for something exciting, look elsewhere,
but if you want a basic phone with excellent battery life, the Nokia
1100 is a good choice. The new Nokia 1110
improves on the 1100 in a number of ways.
Features of the Nokia 1100 include:
- Black & white display with selectable font size
- Phonebook with up to 250 names on SIM card and up to 50 in internal
memory
- Distribution lists and concatenated text (SMS) messaging
- Picture Messaging
- Predictive text input for most European languages, Arabic, and Hebrew
- Date and time screensavers
- Built-in alarm and reminders
- Stopwatch and countdown timer
- Full-size animated screensavers
- Two built-in games (Snake II and Space Impact+)
- Automatic keyguard lock
- Keyguard lock with security code
- Flashlight
- Mono ringtones with composer
- Speed dialing for up to 9 names
- Vibration alert
- Dual band
- Weight: 86 g
- Size: 106 mm x 46 mm x 20 mm
- Talktime: Up to 2 - 4.5 hours
- Standby: Up to 100 - 400 hours

This is a really brilliant phone if all you want is calls, SMS, maybe
a few games and a clock/alarm/reminders. My 'proper' phone, a Samsung
Galaxy Apollo, broke three weeks ago and I've been using the Nokia 1100
since then until I get round to fixing my Samsung. I find it a really
great piece of design and the fact that it's simple, compact and has
hardly any gimmicks is a real bonus for me. It took me back to a simpler
time and I'd recommend it for anyone who's looking for a cheap does-the-job
phone with a few games. Also, have a go at changing the ringtones -
it infuriates my family but they're hilarious.

Let's be clear about this. Phone's are for communicating with and should
be simple to operate. Having had mobiles for work since 1991 (and I
hate them all: "enslaved by technology" and all that) I rate Nokia's.
They have a logical menu system and are tough and reliable. If you want
a fashion accessory (yawn!) or want to send a picture of your bottom
to your many and varied acqaintances then go somewhere else but the
neat little Nokia 1100 is the phone user's phone. It's small, inexpensive
and you use it to talk to people. Having said that the super bright
LED torch and ringtone composer are great little additions....thoroughly
recommended!!

If all you need is to do call people and send a few texts, then this
is the phone for you! Comfortable to hold, pleasant on the eye with
the option of mutltiple replacement facias, then there can no complaints
about design. The menu contains the typical Nokia line-up and is easy
to operate around. Overall, this phone contains the bear essentials
and doesnt try to be something it is not : like a digital camera or
an mp3 player, but still is slightly basic. You cannot complain, however,
for the price!!

problems! If I receive a sms, the phone would just restart as soon as
I open the sms! I dont know if the problem is with the sim or with the

For those of us old fools from the old school this phone is just about

to people who need lots of stuff on their phones, It won't play Chingy's
"right thurr" in polyphony, but it's light, cheap, small, and extra
durable for a cell phone abuser. Voice and text are my main concerns

I have been using this phone for almost an year now and have not faced
any problems. However the lack of extras does pinch sometimes. The torch
however is a clever addition and can be of real use in some situation.
The only problem it seems to have is that the volume of the sound that
you hear in a call seems to go down from time to time. Not sure if it
is a service provider related issue or due to the phone. But overall
I am quite satisfied with this model.

This is my third or fourth phone and I love it. As an entry level phone
it is just perfect. It doesn't come with those features gadget freaks
love, like 65k color screen, polyphonic/mp3 ring tones, mp3 player,
digital camera, mp3 player, wap, e-mail, pda-like organizer, etc., etc.,
etc. No, it is mobile phone and it excels at that. Great battery life
and easy to use too. Top that with a flashlight, alarm, and some other
basic but neat features, and you got the right phone for the job. It
even comes with two easy games (with force feedback!) for those times
you are just waiting for the wife outside the mall. The only con I can
find is the lack of multiple phone numbers per contact, but as a whole
I am very happy with my Nokia 1100.

I started a new job two weeks ago and was given a Nokia 1100 as my work
phone. At first the Nokia 1100 appeared to be a cheap and nasty piece,
but as the day went on and as I was using the Nokia 1100 more and more,
I became quite fond of it. The phone is a good size and doesn't weigh
much. Which makes it comfortable to carry around in your pocket. It's
very easy to use and the battery appears to last forever. I have had
the phone on standby for the last 7 days and made/received a dozen calls
and not yet needed to recharge it. Even though the menu style operating
system is easy to use, I personally think it appears rather dated; it
looks exactly the same as the menu system I had on my old Nokia 7110,
which I brought four or five years ago. Perhaps they should change the
graphic symbols within the menu system to make it appear different and
more upto date. ?? Yet, you could say, "Don't fix it, if it's not
broken." The flashlight is nice and bright, and it's very useful, especially
once I discovered that you don't need to keep the button pressed down
to make it stay on. What I find annoying about the Nokia 1100, is you
can only enter one number per name in the contacts phonebook, which
is not at all good if your contact has, for example, a mobile, a LAN
phone and a fax number. I also found that you are limited to 16 characters
per contact name. This combined with the one number per contact issue
is probably something worth considering when purchasing the Nokia 1100,
especially if your trying to enter contact names like, 'Jackie Stewarts
mobile', 'David Dixon's LAN Phone' or 'Richard Watson's Fax.' You could
probably think of ways round this, by abbreviating. But I did find this
rather frustrating when entering my work colleagues contact details.
Overall I think the Nokia 1100 is a nice tidy looking, easy to use basic
mobile phone. Which seems to last for ages without the need for recharging.
The only let down for me, is the one number per name limitation within
the contacts function. At first I wasn't too sure about the Nokia 1100,
as it appeared a bit dated compared with other mobile phones and it
reminded me of an old Nokia I use to own a few years back. But, I must
admit, my fondness for the Nokia 1100 grew the more I used it.

I give this phone 3 out of 5. The phone itself is solid to hold, and
basic. And those are the 2 main reasons I bought it. It is going to
be my dads phone, so the lack of features is not a problem (esp as I
have an nGage, 6310i and a 3330 kicking around, plus my works phone
which is an orange spv c500). Whilst a good solid phone, I mark it down
for a few of reasons. Firstly, it lacks bluetooth. Now I have gadgety
phones, my dad is unlikely to ever use BT, but it is a feature I feel
should be supplied. Secondly, I feel as it is marketed at those people
who just want a simple, reliable phone, (and possibly marketed at the
elderly) why have they not chosen to make it shock and water resistant
like the 5210 and 6250. And thirdley, it does not boast all the features
of some of its counter parts, so I am surprised how low the battery
life is. Maybe I have just been spoilt by my 6310i, as to be fair, for
its size and class the battery life is good (but could e better :D)
In choosing this phone, I had several criteria to meet, Nokia (if possible),
longest battery life available, simple, large keypad. - In the end I
was torn between this, the 3310/30/3410/3510 on keypad size and the
5210/6250 for ruggedness.

love about it is that the message storage is very large unlike the 3410.
it's got an inbox, a draft and a sent items folder just like Yahoo mail.
and the torch light is really handy in a place like Nigeria. the cons
however is that it's got only 4 operational buttons unlike nokia 3410's
six(or plus in many phones out there)which makes a little tough to navigate.
also when writting text messages you cant scroll row by row to insert
sysmbols like in the 3410 you gotta scroll symbol by symbol. also there
aint no voice tag...cos only 4 operational buttons.but overall the phone's
good. i'll be on it till i can save up enough money to pick a nokia

This phone saved my life. There I was miles in the middle of nowhere
stood by the side of my broken down car. I suddenly remembered that
my trusty nokia 1100 no gimmick mobile was in the glove compartment.
My concerns were drawn to the fact that the phone had'nt been near a
charger for several weeks and would most probably not work, How wrong
was I, with the first push of the button, the phone lit up and with
vodaphone's superb coverage of out of reach places I was soon on the
phone for help. After several games of Snake 11 and space impact I heard
the sounds of a helicopter flying nearby, I immediatley set about trying
to get their attention, then I remembered the 1100 had a torch. I hit
the button and started waving the phone which was sending a beam toward
the helicopter, My only hope being that it did not blind the pilot with
it's immense power. After a successful rescue, My nokia 1100 was awarded
with a medal from her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 11 for outstanding reliabilit
y and quality. The moral of my story is this. phones can be played with,
or phones can be relied upon.

I am 13 years old and this is my first mobile phone. I like it mostly
because of two things: 1- it is incredibly THIN!! so it suits on the
pocket of my jeans and i can keep it there when i go out (holder isn't
so necessary). 2-it doesn't call the peolpe's attention, so when i walk
back home from school, or when i go by train or by bus i feel secure.
(i mean, if i had a phone as a sony ericsson T616 i wouldn't be so calm).
I really like the ringtone composer, and its ringtones because, i can't
associate polyphonic ringtones with a mobile phone, but at the same
time its monophonic tones sound pretty good and there is one for every
personality. i would like an exotic colour for its display .. (green
is too common) but it is also nice like that. having the possibility
of changing its faceplates.its design could be improved. byee!!

very good. I like. Unfortunately we have no diesel for generator in
our village so battery life is not long enough. This phone has a lot
of modern features such as a display and noise other than the "bring

Mobile phones should be small and are for talking to people. That's
it, and that is what this phone does.

I got this phone because I was sick of all the gadgets, colour screens,
polyphonic ringtones etc etc etc. I just needed a phone I can receive
and make calls on and sms. Thank god Nokia have bought back the Navi
key, I missed it sooo much on my last phone as it wasn't as user friendly.
I would recommend this phone to anyone. I especially like the torch,
it is very handy at night time for finding your car in a carpark, walking
through the house at night or finding that elusive keyhole... I have
had a lot of phones recently because I can't find one I like, until
now. Well done Nokia.. Oh and I love the face screensaver, he cheers
me up.

After having grief with my Sony Ericcson T-100 (which I had for 2+ months).
Under guarantee, I returned it to the store and asked if I could replace
it with a brand new Nokia 1100. This phone is basic and simple, without
the bells and whistles of a phone that adds on hundreds of dollars more.
The battery life is outstanding, taking only 3 and a half hours to fully
charge, and after 4 days, it still has a full battery. Overall, this
phone has everything I need; txt messaging, long lasting battery, and
I can make cheap phone calls oversease thanks to the vodafone network's
new low rate offer here in New Zealand. Very gorgeous, and goes well
on my office desk!!!!

It was the perfect phone for me... clean design, simple to use, long
lasting battery, lightweight and the torch... very handy! However after
4 months it started to loose network reception and the battery was being
drained too fast(?) Probably a flaw in the making??? Otherwise a very
good solid phone, and affordable!

As most people have said the 1100 is a brilliant phone except of course
that the miniscule speaker sounds 'tinny' when volume raised on calls.
The 1100 is phone for occasional use due to the poor speaker reception.
Reminds me of a Sony mobile phone some years ago now that looked the
business but was let down by the poor speaker.

I brought this phone, and took it back within 2 days. it was a good
general phone, but it would not put things alphabetcially - it only
did things up to the first three letters. this meant i had to go through
all the enteries for that letter until i could find the person i wanted
- annoying when trying to text in a hurry.

I have been using this for last one month and what I found was that,
it is having all the basic features of a mobile phone and is easy to
operate,.Battery life is Excellent. Voice recption and message sending
are upto the mark. Silicon key pad is a kool feature. A basic phone
with durability and stability. Drawbacks--no fun graphics,ringtone downloading
is limited, less games:-(.

monophonic cellphone so far. got the new space impact game which i find
quite fun. hey, the flashlight's outstanding, very practical. i like
the animated clock screensaver, i dont need my watch for that. i can
also resend my unsent message by going back to sent items. its only
four stars because of some reasons. it lacks my favorite outbox and
composer. And the red phone key is quite small for my thumb.

I'm very pleased with this phone, it's not a show off model by any means,
no camera, mp3 player, etc, but what it does... it does it in solid
way. It has the basic features, like contact list, alarm, rapid dial,
reminders etc, but it also has some nice added features like screensavers,
a LED flashlight (that definitely can come in handy), stopwatch, calculator
etc. And the size is very nice, not big but not lighter size either.
If you know what you want and don't need or want all those fancy gadgets
like a camera, mp3 player, color display, etc., and just want a solid
phone that gets things done then i would highly recommend this model.
Sound quality and signal are both superb, vibration is good, loud ringtones,
just an all around good phone... and oh yes, very little energy consumption,
battery life is OUTSTANDING. A cousin had one of those phones loaded
with gadgets, but he always seemed to have problems with the sound quality
and signal loss....he sold it and got the Nokia 1100, he said "I could
do alot of stuff with my old phone, except make or receive calls".

I bought a Nokia 1100 yesterday since it was very cheap and seemed to
look better than the similar small phones available. Popular 'Snake
II' and 'Space Impact +' games are included. The flashlight is a nice
addition that few other phones have. The 1100 is an excellent and reliable
handset for people who don't need MMS/email, and the perfect spare phone
for people who already have those things.

THIS IS THE SMART PHONE. With a phone you want to speak. This is done
perfectly with a nice design in menus and phone. It also has one of
the best battery lives in the market. Low price, which is great for
us who break or lose phones too often. For internet a broadbanded computer
is better, for an agenda buy a handheld, for a toy buy a playstation.
This is just a great phone for us who need to speak. Congratulations
NOKIA for this minimal phone !

the only thing which makes it good and better than 2100 and3610 is that
its baterry is little more powerful and it is said to be dust resistant
but its shape is no more better than 2100.if baterry of 2100 is made
more powerful then 1100 will surely fail.

I recently upgraded my hand set from a Nokia 3310 to the new Nokia 1100.
At first, I was a little bit sceptical about trading in my 3310, fearing
that the 1100 would be less reliable. But I was quick to realise that
the 1100 is in fact a much improved version of the 3310. If you are
looking for a basic hand set, the new Nokia 1100 definitely gets the
job done. User-friendly features, stylish design, slim outlook and best
of all, the silicon keypads. Although not as responsive as the 3310,
the keypads are designed to last, especially for those of us who are
'hard key mat punchers', if you know what I mean.

The Nokia 1100 is my second phone after the nokia 2100.Its design is
definitely a refreshing change from other Nokia basic handsets; the
silicon keymat looks great even though the buttons on the 2100 are easier
to press.The 2100 is more user friedly too.The 850 MaH BLC5 battery
lasts really long and helps in reducing the overall weight of the phone.Battery
life is far better than that of the 2100.But Nokia has made some basic
mistakes.The phone book memory is just 50 which is a pity;they should
have given at least 100.Polyphonic ringtones,FM Radio,at least 2 MB
of internal memory and last but not the least,a 4096 color display would
have made this set one of the best entry level color phones.But unfortunately,the
Nokia 1100 can at best be classified as a refreshing "BASIC" phone from
Nokia.
