Nokia 2100 Review

Sony Ericsson Z600

The Nokia 2100 isn’t one of Nokia’s flashiest models, but it is a basic, stylish communication tool built to be sturdy and easy-to-use. Several important features are found on this phone, such as SMS messaging, multi-lingual support, and a long battery life. Nokia is aiming this phone at customers interested in an affordable, reliable phone that will last a long time.

The Nokia 2100 features the classic Nokia design, bringing strong ergonomic fundamentals to this compact, reliable phone. Known as a “soapbar” style phone, this Nokia doesn’t have any folding parts or external antennae, which means it’s easy always easy to answer—and hard to break. Large buttons and easily understandable menus help you use your Nokia 2100 quickly and directly.

Features such as up to one hundred storable contacts, advanced clock features, and call waiting functions make this a high-value phone with plenty of quality. The phone’s clock features both digital and analog display, as well as a stopwatch. An exciting alarm function is its repeatable alarm. If you use your phone to wake you up for work, you can set it Sunday night and have it wake you up all the way till Friday! Call waiting includes customizable divert functions. You can divert all incoming calls to voicemail and screen your calls many other ways.

Also customizable are the phone’s “profiles”. Adjusting your phone’s profile allows you to have it ring at a polite volume when you’re at work or out on the town. Or, if you’re walking busy streets and waiting for an important call, you can set the phone’s ring to “Loud,” so you’ll be sure not to miss your next call.

In today’s fast-moving tech industry, phone features like digital cameras, MP3 players, GPS, and Internet access are increasingly popular. Those looking for a phone that can double as a PDA or multimedia portal may be disappointed in the limited features offered by the Nokia 2100. However, those who already have an MP3 player or are simply looking for an affordable, high-value phone to help them keep in touch will find what they’re looking for in this down-to-earth model.
