Conclusion

The first thing to note at wrap-up is the really nice performance and handling of Nokia 3120 classic. Yeah, we know it's not much of a specs sheet but what's there gets delivered right. Quad-band network support, excellent display and 3G do add value to the clean and simple 3120 classic.

In the beginning of this review we went to great lengths describing the serious pressure the 3120 classic will have to handle. That's good news for every user out there. All you need to do it is get your priorities right and indulge in the abundance of choice. This is a price range where value-for-money is imperative and it's up to you whether it's sleeker looks, better camera, 3G or simply the lower asking price.

All that said, it's unlikely for Nokia 3120 classic to let you down, especially if you get it on a deal or subsidized by a carrier.
