Hope this info will help to whoever who is thinking of buying this phone. Had this phone since it came out of the market.

Pros:
1) Great polyphonic ringtones.
2) Long battery life, around 1-2 weeks.
3) Large sms memory, around 80-100 smses.
4) It has a composer to play with.
5) Unlike other phones, it has a feature of speed dialing to sms. You can choose between calling or smsing when you use speed dialing.
6) Small, easy to use, friendly user.

Cons:
1) Well, no gprs and wap, u cant download ringtones, games and wallpapers.
2) Very big fonts, 4 lines per sms.
3) Not enough pixels, you can see pieces of pixels on the screen.
4) It doesn't have a calender, worse still, you can only type around 30-50 characters, its too short.
5) Too little choices of ringtones to choose from as you cant download them.
6) I don't know if other users experience this, but sometimes this phone will automatically switch off by itself while you are using it. It will on back by it self anyway.
7) Cant keep many numbers under one name.

          hmm.. at first i really liked this phone when i bought it. Its features are some what remarkable. But later i found out that this phone cant download ringtones,mms..etc.which is very sad. and i dont know why they say that its battery lasts long cz my phone's battery only lasts half a day.i get tired of charging it again and again. So now im very disappointed of buying it. and if there will be no data cable for 1600 to come out in the market, i will throw this phone cz its useless. they had placed a slot for the data cable in the phone but they did not provide for the cable?. I hope Nokia will provide a cable for 1600.

            For all those people who are complainig about phones not having camera or other nonsense they put these days in phones, go away, stop wasting your time posting here. Go and buy an expensive phone who has "everything" and forgets about making calls. With the money you give for N70, for example, you can buy a good digital camera , a decent MP3 player with enough memory, a phone like Nokia 1600 and still leaves you with a litlle change in you pocket.
            Now, about this phone, good built quality, light, fast UI, excelent batery life, good reception, and chep cheap cheap. Stop wasting your money people, buy a phone. that's it

                          I would say with this phone, you could get Mp3 tones via data cable, not sure what type of data cable that would be needed. but if you go to a local phone shop then you are seek advise for this phone and what data cable would be needed. If the phone support other features like SD cards or IR, or blue tooth then you could transffer Mp3's via those functions. Any more help?

                                  Got this phone from a month and I love it.Great sound, EXELLENT battery(7-8 days with 20-30 min talking time per day), loudspeaker- all you need for talking. No MMS support but the SMS is made quite well, over 30 picture massages and lots of options.

                                      Hello everyone. I see that some people just can't imagine that some phones (2310, 1600 etc.) haven't common features like mms, vga camera or wap. Well imagine that EVERY model of phone has its target consumer. So don't bother with messages like "What a crap - it has no wap" :) A little more open mind would be a relief for me and others. Take care.

                                        This is a really good phone. and the best part is that it is selling in Trinidad for $100.00 TT, that is $16.75 US!
