Nokia 3310 Review
Phone rating: 
Review: March 2003. Updated October 2004.
The Nokia 3310 has been one of the most popular mobiles of all time, so it
seems mean to award it just one star. However, the truth is that the 3310 cannot
compare with modern phones: it's big and heavy, has hardly any features, mediocre
battery life, and is not as reliable as many people would like to believe. The
newer Nokia 3100 is a much better choice.
Features of the Nokia 3310 include:
- Predictive text messaging
- 35 ringtones plus ringtone composer plus customisable ringtones
- Voice activated dialling
- Data capability
- Downloadable games
- Animated screen savers
- Changeable front and back covers
- Size: 113 x 48 x 22 mm
- Weight: 133g
- Battery standby: 55 - 260 hours
- Battery talktime: 2.5 - 4.5 hours
- Vibration alert
- Dual band

I have this phone now almost for 10 years. It still works great. I mean modern
phones are weak and easly broke. I drop it from 7th floor STILL WORKS! I drop
it while calling in the car driving at 120k/m STILL WORKS! Then accidentaly
drive over it when turning back to get it STILL WORKS! I drop it in toilet STILL
WORKS! I smash against someones head who tried to steal it STILL WORKS. This
phone you can do anything with it and it will STILL WORK! Unlike moderen phones
where they are weaklings. They need a lesson from my Nokia 3310!

Great little phone, had mine a few months now - no complaints whatsoever. Considering
it's size and cost, it's very comparable to a lot of the similar (but a lot
more expensive) phones in its class. This phone also has heaps of style, so
you can customise it to look just about however you want - business, sophisticated,
fun.. etc. Definately one to consider if upgrading - and a lot more reliable
that those flip phones!!

theres nothing really that exciting about this phone, ive had it for about 3
years because i havent had the chance to afford a better one. it takes ages
to open messages, it thinks for a long while, and its getting worse too. the
phone weighs a heap, and its pretty bulky for today, its annoying to carry around.
if i was an electronic dummy getting a first mobile, i'd get this one, because
it is so basic and "user friendly". but otherwise, i wouldnt recommend getting
this phone.

id say this phone was very ahead of its time when it first came out. it was
slightly bulkier than the 8210, but alot cheaper and was in fact decent value.
had some really cool features, including the profiles and the screensaver pictures,
which were things that other affordable nokias lacked at the time. i havent
used this phone for 3 years and have had about 5 handsets since then. i can
honestly say that this was the phone i really did appreciate at the time of
owning it.

I had a Nokia 3310 for 2 years and replaced it with a samsung A800 last christmas.
The Nokia 3310 is a classic phone. Its good features are : long lasting battery,
extremely easy to use, changeable phone covers. It can`t be a bad phone if people
still use them surely? It never let me down once. I would say this a good phone
for anyone who doesnt use there phone much or wants a simple phone. If they
still them, do they?? Its a good phone but unfortunatly i think its days will
be over this time next year - but what a classic phone!!

Here's the thing. This phone is a great phone, basiclly just a workhorse you
know? Weighs an absolute tonne and has vitually no modern features. I have had
mine for 4 years and I'm upgrading. Anyone considering buying this phone should
opt for something a little more modern because this thing is a dinosaur. If
however you do want to go as cheap as possible beware. The charger blows after
a couple of years and doesnt work, and screen WILL crack and nokia WONT replace
it and it WILL delete names and stuff unexpectably. A very Nice phone, which
was extreamly practable in 2001 but in todays world it should only really be
bought as an antique.

I had this phone for 3 years and still goin strong. After countless times of

There were occasional glitches like "hanging", but it happens very rarely. Very
easy to use compared to other phones during its launch. Heck, my gramma can
use it perfectly! In conclusion, a very loyal phone...if you bought it from

No matter what others say, this is one of the best phones available for now.
Nokia has the best software for phones and that's why it's very reliable, also
the menus are great. This phone gives you the feeling of reliability and it
is also functional, and it is kinda cheap. I had lots of phones and this is
one of the best. Changeable covers, good ringtones so if you want to get a good
phone don't hesitate. For a better feeling try changing the plastic buttons
with rubber ones (those that look like the 3410's)... mail me!

Okay... I know EVERYONE'S got this phone and it's one of the most popular choices.
But the covers are changeable so you can change the style of your phone as many
times as you want. The ringtones are quite good and there's loads to choose
from and you can also compose your own. Also there are some reasonably good
games incase your bored...really bored! (Actually I'm addicted to snake but
hey!) And you can have pictures as your screensaver. So what I'm trying to say
is that it's a popular choice because it's one of the most reliable phones i've
ever owned (and god have i owned a lot of phones) and when dropped it still
works, ive dropped mine about 5 times in the last few days and the case came
off but no damage! All in all, this is a good phone! Buy it if you want something
simple and reliable.

Hello, My name is Ryan Murphy, I like this phone abit, it has all the details.
Such as, Text messaging, ringing other people and Games. the games are great,
you can play Snake 2, Space impact, Bantumi and pairs 2. You can compose your
own ringtones and go on a website called www.mrtones.com to get free ringtones.
you get loads of cool ringtones such as, merry xmas and loads of cool ones.
The screensavers aren't very good but if your looking for a phone that's pure
and simple. Just get the nokia 3310, with an amount of 15 buttons to compare
with.

they are to heavy, with a low capacity). The phone is a little bit to heavy.

head set for my 3310, but, even though the phone hasn't been for a swim its
been 'water damaged' and the hands free wont work. There is a slight software
bug in the menu numbering system, it misses 13 and goes on to 14 for the sim2
service, and there is no numbering for the sim2 services. A nice phone that
fits in your levi's pocket.

The nokia 3310 is a great little reliable phone, I have had mine since xmas
2001 and it has never failed me. In wales you get brilliant signal on orange
(not so good on my mates vodafone) Definately a good phone for beginners and
for people on a budget, it isnt out of fashion as far as im concerned as most
the pupils in my school have this one! Im upgrading to either an sony ericsson
p400 or t610 or possibly a samsung v200 for christmass yay! Its only downfall
as far as im concerned is it has frozen while browsing pictue messages once
or twice (my fault for flicking through them quickly so as soon as it has loaded
up im on the next picture!) Only reason im updating is because im looking for
a nice camera phone and cause my older sister is having this one off me! this
phone is very usefull on battery time as well as i can go for 4 days without
charging it!!!! would have been nice if there was more room ofr messages!

This is a well made trustworthy phone. It has not got any up market features,
it would make a great phone for an older person as it is one of the easiest
phones to use that i know of. Don't pay any more than £60.00 for it.

only needs a colour screen and a camera to be a rockable phone

I've had this phone for over 2 years now and have had no problems whatsoever
with it. It's a great, basic phone and if you dont want all those fancy features
then go for this one. My only complaint is that it only holds 10 texts, which
if you send/receive a lot each day your constantly having to delete messages,
tho this is only a minor complaint. 5 stars from me because, even tho its very
basic, it does what it does well. The only reason I'm going to upgrade soon
is simply because I want a camera phone. But if your wanting a good basic phone,
perhaps a first phone, then go for the 3310.

This phone is 100% quality. Lets face it wot do u realy need a fone for, texting
and making and recieving calls, not all these useless feutures u see on the
new phones. The 3310 is the best for makin calls and texts, its so simple to
use 1 button does everything even my nan could use it. IT doesnt look that bad
either and if you really want ther are thousands of covers you can get for it.
Its not to big, its not to small and the price is fantastic. There is no need
to be ripped off with prices up to £300 for useless feutures such as bluetooth,
cmaeras...etc.

i've had this phone two years now and let's just say it's worn out its welcome.
at first it was really good and worked really well, admittedly it's very durable,
i have smashed the screen once when i dropped it off a podium in a nightclub,
but that is unusal! i've chucked it about and it doesn't break..BUT after two
years it's just looking really old bulky and boring. my main reason for changing
phones however is that the star button has stopped working properly, which is
pretty damn annoying if u wanna lock your phone or use predictive text! it's
startiong to happen to the other buttons too i don't know why and i don't care
coz i'm trading in the ugly block of nokia for a cute little samsung, yay!

This phone is really great. Have been using it for two years..will change to
6800 or 5100. I have several complaints about text messaging..for you who use
text message...this can be unreliable at times because of weak signal at times
and can only support up to 460 characters or so. Also, unreliable to deliver
more than 300 characters depend on the signal. Some people didnt get my long
msgs...mostly short ones. And also the short battry life too. This is still
pretty good and cheap.

this phone is one of the best phones that they are in terms of value for money.
It is affordable and is the cheapest phone on the market. It has games and all
the features you will need/ever use. Pity it doesn't have wap but 90% of people
who have this phone don't even need it so i think that this phone is built to
perfection and I am glad about the changes they made to the 3410 which is the
upgrade but yet the price goes up. If you have a low budget, get this phone!

I've had this phone for two years now. I'll soon be upgrading, probably to the
6610. Anyway, overall the phone has been great. Its definitely user friendly,
as most Nokia's are. The phone has all the functions most people would need,
I'd still recommend this phone today for people new to phones eg grandparents/kids
etc. The phone is quite durable; I've dropped mine numerous times and for the
most part it keeps on functioning as normal. I did happen to break the screen
once when I dropped it on the road, but I think that was just bad luck. Although
the screen was cracked, the phone continued to operate! As others have found,
batterly life can deplete quite quickly, but replacement batteries are relatively
cheap. If your phone came with a Nickel Metal Hydride battery, replace it with
a Lithium Ion battery. Definitely improved performance from Li-Ion batteries.
The phone is great. Its not the most stylish out there, and if you want the
latest and greatest model, this isn't your thing. BUT, if you want a good phone
that is reliable and damn easy to use, you can't go past the Nokia 3310.

I think the 3310 is good value if you only want to use a phone for calling and
texting or if it's your first mobilephone and you're under 12.The only fault
is that very rarely it unlocks or phones people when it 's meant to be locked
but thats if the buttons are being pressed.

I have had my phone now just over two years and the only critism I would have
is the battery life. I have now replaced it with a longer life battery and it
only needs charging once or twice a week instead of every other day. Other than
that it does everything I could want from a phone and I can even send ring tones
to other nokia phones which you can't do from the 3330 as there is no composer
on it. I think that this is also the case on some of the newer Nokia phones.
Overall, I am really happy and have no intention of changing it in the near
future.

The Nokia range on a whole are outstanding phones. I have progressed through

all looks and no substance. The Nokia is sturdy, easy to use and totally reliable,
plus you can dolly it up to your own likes.
