This is a basic phone, for those who need only a "phone",for poor people of 'underdeveloped countries'. Fine. Can anybody tell me is this the reason to make an ugly phone like this? Samsung has also developed some cheap phones with excellent battery life, but they are having a better look than this pencil box. Look does matter....

I don't understand people.This is mobile phone,not an mp3,mp4,radio or digital camera.Not everybody need this on mobile phone.I have SE J110i and it is very good phone.This Nokia is something like that and I like it very much.I don't buy basic phone because for its price.I buy it because I don't need more than talking and typeing sms.Great work Nokia!

Good Lord, I'm rejoicing! It does even have MP3 ringtones and Snake 2 (too bad Shenzia needs color).

Seriously, though... people who truly bash this kind of phones probably never went to underdeveloped countries. Oh wait, you don't even need to go there. We have examples around us... ;)

Truth is, I'm buying an N900, but I'm keeping my Nokia 1101 (Google Image it) when I must go to dangerous places (think robbery).

Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970Give Nokia some credit they are going along with the Going Green program by recycling old materials. Good Job Nokia, for making phones for the developing 3rd world countries.

Hi All..this is going to replace the best selling phone in the world, Nokia 1202..The retail price should be around $27.this is for the drivers,house maids,etc who wants to own a Nokia phone but doesnt have too much money too shell out...Nokia caters to all...

if u look at this phone from the angle of art, i can tell you man.. this machine is sexy.. this is what makes Nokia the world 1st phone manufacturers. the reason being is there are huge number of people who need this kind of no-nonsense phones just like this one. a cheap phone for basic communication ONLY. Nokia rocks.
